TOSHIBA PC
Health Monitor
The TOSHIBA PC Health Monitor software program monitors
computer system functions such as power consumption, the cooling
system and the HDD Drop sensor. It alerts users of specific system
conditions via pop-up messages. It also tracks the usage of the
computer and related devices, logging the service relevant
information on the computer's hard disk drive.
The collected information includes device operation time and
number of Actuations or status changes (i.e.: number of power
button and FN key combination uses, AC adaptor, battery, LCD,
fan, HDD, sound volume, wireless communication switch, docking
and USB information), date of initial system use, and also computer
and device usage (i.e.: power settings, battery temperature and
recharging, CPU, memory, backlight illumination time, and
temperatures for various devices). The stored data uses a very small
portion of the total hard disk capacity, approximately 3 MB or less
per year.
This information is used to identify and provide a notification of
system conditions which may effect the performance of your
Toshiba computer. It may also be used to help diagnose problems
should the computer require service by Toshiba or Toshiba's
authorized service providers. Additionally, Toshiba may also use
this information for quality assurance analysis.
