• Satellite C660 - TouchPad freeze at startup

  Hi I'm new and this is my first post so please be gentle!

  I have a Satellite C660 with windows 7 purchased as a refurb factory it is my 1st laptop, I have a problem after startup, and everything loaded on my desktop, it seems that if I use my TouchPad too early it freezes, he did it since I bought it, but I thought it was me being not used to a touchpad and the "bloatware" to start is the only way I can get the pointer to move if I have a finger from the top to the bottom of line scrolling to the right of the TouchPad horizontally or diagonally, it moves very slowly until I can be open and close a browser window, the file or even the startup window, then it will then act as usual and do not freeze again for my entire session If I leave it for five minutes at the start, it works fine, sometimes it will freeze also out of standby or hibernation, but not always.

  OK, I thought maybe it was the necessary driver update I checked in Device Manager and it said it was working properly but that of course is when the pointer is as it should be, in the Device Manager if I pilot of the touchpad/driver/update and internet search it tells me I have the drivers updated If I choose to search for a driver on my computer/let pick me from a list of device drivers that I have the following:-

  Mouse Compatible PS/2
  Synaptics PS/2 Port Compatible TouchPad
  Synaptics PS/2 Port Compatible TouchPad
  Synaptics PS/2 Port TouchPad

  I should have all those showing? can someone with a file of similar specifications check that for me please?

  strange thing is that if I go to TouchPad properties via the taskbar, and then click driver all options except the driver Details are grayed out and done, I can open two windows of TouchPad properties from the device and the task bar manager and have them on the screen at the same time.

  Some things I should mention are a mouse in the usb works fine, I stopped a lot of the "bloatware" and would help the useless stuff running at startup, hoping that I have disabled the function of locking of the click on the TouchPad, sound as it needs to be "warmed up" to run correctly when running properly it works fine without problem as the laptop came pre installed and only Disc I have is the recovery one create you the initial Setup!
  Any help would be appreciated!

  Hello

  First of all, I don t think that this problem is related to the installed touchpad driver but if you wish, you can install the latest touchpad driver available from the European driver Toshiba.

  Visit the European driver Toshiba page and choose:
  Computer laptop Satellite Satellite C series Satellite C660 driver Touchpad

  Now you should get all the touchpad driver available for C660 series.
  I found the driver for the touchpad Synaptics for Win7 32 bit and 64 bit.
  The latest version seems to be v15.2.11.1

  I think you should go to Panel of-> Software
  Check here if Synaptics touchpad driver appear in the list of installed software.
  If so, uninstall the present.
  Then, download and install the Synaptics v15.2.11.1 driver

  The touchpad settings could be changed in Control Panel-> mouse-> tab advanced-> button Advanced.

• Blue Screen of death - now cannot load Windows (even in safe mode)

  Laptop last night (Satellite L500-19Z;) Win 7 64 bit) crashed while playing CIV4. Had a blue screen of death. before I had the chance to read one of the error messages about the computer restarted.

  It loaded windows in SafeMode very well then and informed me that he had loaded OK the problem safe mode will be linked to some recently installed software and I should uninstall programs I had installed until it loads normally. As it was late last night I closed and thought I would sort the morning (with the benefit of hindsight it may have been a mistake...).

  Today, when the computer tries to start, it tries a startup repair; Unfortunately it does not work every time and it says "Startup Repair tried several times but still cannot determine the cause of the problem"

  I looked at the paper it produces, but it passes all of the individual tests.

  I can't access also advanced recovery options system & support, that appears in the Startup Repair dialog box as it requires that I be connected, which apparently I am not (probably the machine never got to the windows screen connection before attempting repair system). The error message reads "you must be logged to access system recovery options. If you encounter problems to connect, please contact your computer administrator for help. Please click OK to restart the computer. »

  I had a go at the start in the advanced options (safe mode, safe mode with command etc., but the result is the same).

  I also tried the repair of your computer to the screen option options advanced boot, but after the screen where it asks you to choose the language and keyboard, I get the same error of connection mentioned above.

  Is it possible to repair or even run windows based hard drive recovery (do not have the DVD of recovery with me as I'm away from home for a few weeks) without connecting to windows? I expected here, but have not yet find a way to do it.

  (there is no disc in the disc drive, no other devices connected to the laptop - I tried with power outlet and the battery and have not noticed differences)

  Thank you
  James

  Hello

  Pitty, you cannot retrieve the HEXADECIMAL code
  On this side, I think that your HD or registry is damaged and you have to reinstall the entire system

  Good luck

• Satellite C660-184 freezes at random times while playing a game.

  Laptop freezes at random times while playing Football Manager 2011. The game is not graphics intensive and worked for about a month with no problems, just recently it started to freeze, and the only thing I can do is to turn off my laptop by the power button.

  I have a

  Satellite C660-184
  Windows® 7 Home Premium 64-bit authentic (pre-installed, Toshiba-HDD recovery)
  -Intel® Core i3 - 380 M processor
  SuperMulti DVD + r (Double Layer)
  -RAM (1066 MHZ) DDR3 4096 MB (2048 + 2048)
  -39.6 cm (15.6 ") TruBrite® HD (1366 x 768) high brightness display with LED back light with aspect ratio 16:9
  -Intel HD Graphics, display memory: 1 696 MB

  My graphics driver is up to date, said my last is 28/07/2010.

  I am at a loss to explain what is happening.

  Help and advice would be greatly appreciated.

  Hey Buddy,

  > The game is not graphics intensive and worked for about a month without any problems, has recently started to freeze
  This could mean that the laptop is overheating
  The reason for overheating is the dust that blocks the fan for laptop gets hotter

  I recommend to clean using a jet of compressed air to blow the dust from the cooling fans. You can do it without disassembling the computer so it is very easy and takes only 5 minutes.
  Just remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter before doing this.

  For example I clean my laptop every 4 months because a lot of dust is coming so it s worth it.

• Satellite C660-1NX freezes while stop after a new install of Win 7

  Hello!

  The first sorry for my English, I'm Spanish and use a translator.

  I have a Satellite C660-1NX (PSC1LE-00F00NCE), I had to reformat the computer, put on a clean Windows 7 64 x (no recovery) with all the original drivers giving the official page of Toshiba.

  Everything seems perfect, but when turn off the computer is frozen, I thought it was x 64 and x 86 and install the same, straight day, then started the same problem, eh update of the BIOS, as used before formatting it didn't happen, it's very weird.

  I find that the reason for the problem never happened to any computer that.

  Best regards

  and what happen when you install the system using the recovery disk?
  The laptop is too cold?

  I doubt that someone will be able to say why the unit does not close properly.
  First of all, I think its necessary to find out if its hardware or software problem.

  In the case where its software related issue, the recovery disc that contains the image of configured Toshiba should fix this annoying problem.

• Bluetooth does not work on Windows in Satellite C660-A047

  Hello everyone,

  I have a problem with my laptop (satellite c660-A047) Bluetooth does not work on windows (7 and 8), but it works very well under Linux (Ubuntu, Fedora, Backtrack).

  I have an outgoing method :) to do run on windows, start Linux Live then set the Bluetooth adapter to the off State, and then reboot (do not stop, restart only), and then start windows this time this Bluetooth adapter works great and updated automatically in the Device Manager.

  To use Bluetooth on windows I have to do the same steps: (.)

  If someone wants to know all the details to help me solve these curious case, I will be grateful.

  Thanks, looking forward to hearing from you soon.

  The laptop supports Wlan Atheros / module combo BT.
  This means that a single module shares WiFi and BT connectivity.

  Using Win 7 you must add the additional drivers called filter for driver Atheros BT package.
  So first the Atheros WLan driver must be installed, secondly Atheros BT filter after battery Toshiba BT.

  To help to win 8, you must install two components of driver manually to enable the Bluetooth feature: System Toshiba + Atheros Bluetooth driver driver filter

  Hello

  Since when are you facing the issue?

  There could be several reasons why you cannot open Windows store. It could be because of the proxy connection or any what third-party antivirus or because of the cache store.

  I suggest you follow these methods and check.

  Method 1:

  Disable the proxy connection

  If you use a proxy connection, and then follow the steps to turn off the proxy connection.

  a. click on the gear box in the upper right corner in Internet Explorer.

  b. click on Tools and then click Internet Options.

  c. click on the connections tab, and then click LAN settings.

  d. uncheck it use a proxy server for your LAN box.

  e. click ok.

  Method 2:

  Disable the third-party antivirus software

  If you have any third-party software installed on the computer, then I suggest you to disable the antivirus software and check.

  Important note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attacks.

  Method 3:

  I suggest you to clear the cache to store and check.

  Follow these steps to do so.

  (a) on the screen, press Windows key + R to open the Run dialog box.

  (b) type WSReset.exe and press enter.

• Satellite C660 - mouse freezes for seconds

  The mouse on my Satellite C660 is driving me crazy. As well as the functions I put t use, it hangs for seconds every time after passing on. I got to plug a USB mouse, which seems to stabilize on a Clipboard as well.

  Is there a driver I can download to replace one installed and return to traditional mouse operation?

  Do you mean the touchpad?

• Laptop cannot load Windows 7

  After attempting to clear the password at startup in the BIOS I was going into a more serious problem. Whenever I try to turn on my laptop it appears a black screen saying: "cannot start Windows. A recent hardwqare or software change might be the cause. "And there are two options, repair and start Windows normally. So I chose the repair, but it just goes to another black screen saying "Windows was able to start" and has instructions on how to "fix" the problem. At the bottom it says "status: 0 x 0000225 Info: the boot selection failed because a required device is inaccessible. Also, when I pres "Start Windows normally" the Windows 7 Logo flashes and then after a second, it allows just the black screen, I described above.

  Here's what I think has caused:
  When I was trying to get into the BIOS, I entered another Menu by pressing F10. It is the recovery of the system, according to me. Then he said something on three partitions. I used to have three partitions, a Local, recovering HP and one for my records. But then I got rid of the partition for recording and has developed at a Local level. So, I am confused on why he said there were three partitions. The system recovery may have done something for the operating system. When I press F8 and go into options it also leads to the black screen, especially the Safe Mode.

  Thank you!
  I need to fix this ASAP, and I am not system restore I have many family Photos.

  Hello

  There seems to be a series of Toshiba laptops we and that's why the recovery process can be different on Toshiba notebooks European

  However, the recovery procedure must be mentioned in the manual of the user. Check this box

  First try this:
  Switch on and press F8.
  Select Safe Mode, and then try to start the Windows mode without failure.
  If this does not work, try to repair the computer option.

  I think the laptop must be equipped with HARD drive recovery. This means that you could recover the device without the use of the recovery diskette.

  As mentioned it's series American TV to laptop and I know that you must press the 0 key immediately after the laptop has been powered.
  This should start the recovery

• Toshiba Satellite Pro 4600; Cannot load Windows.

  A friend recently gave me a refurbished from this laptop model that has been updated with Windows XP Pro and it worked for about a month before a windows system file has been altered. I got a new OS disk and I replaced the file and it worked fine for another month, and when I started it today, it gave me a message saying: "We apologize for the inconvenience, but Windows did not start successfully. A recent hardware or software change might have caused this. "and gives me a list of options to reboot. I have not installed anything or nothing changed.

  I also tried each of the options and none work. I get a blue screen that flashes for a split second and then he returned to the screen with the restart options.

  I tried to go to the BIOS menu and setting up for her to start from the cd drive with the OS disk instead of try to reformat and I get a screen with a short message that says ' Media Test Failure. Check cable"and then returns to the screen with the with the restart options. I'm running out of ideas and anything online that I could find so far has helped. If anyone has any ideas at all, I'd like to hear them.

  I want to reformat completely this laptop if it is not too late.

  Any help would be appreciated. Thank you very much.

  Hello

  Media Test failure. Check cable message appears because cell phone trying to boot from LAN.
  Maybe the laptop trying to boot from LAN because the HARD drive is no longer available it could be possible
  Have you checked the HARD drive in the BIOS? Please do!
  Check if the HARD disk is available in the BIOS
  If it s not appear not in the BIOS, then the disk HARD is dead and must be replaced.

  PS; You can also change the order start F12 press when the laptop starts upward. Then all the possible boot devices should appear on the screen and you can choose the CD/DVD drive as the boot source.

• Cannot load Windows 7 after installation of 2 critical updates (KB2436673 & KB2296199) - 0x800f0816 error Code

  At 03:00 today, my computer automatically up-to-date with 8 updated reviews.  The computer unused satellite, power, up to 15:00 when I got home, date on which windows was trying to 'fix', because windows could not be loaded.  I did a system restore to a point before the updates were installed (02:00).  Goodbye My observer of events and concluding that none of the updates have been installed correctly, I have taken note of the errors for each (most were 0x800f0816, but we've been 0 x 80242016) and went through each update individually and install.  Two of these updates will not be installed.  After the system restart after installing, windows attempts to load.  The system automatically restarts and begins to repair windows.  Windows repair indicates that the system cannot be repaired automatically.  I chose a restore point from before the 'bad' updates are installed, and everything is fine.

  I get the same error for the two KB2296199 of KB2436673 & failed installs: 0x800f0816.

  Is it possible to fix this?  Or I'm just not going to install it these updates?  It is a newly built computer (last week), all the new kit stripped of equipment, new OS.  I have very little installed on this system.  I found no information regarding this error code or the latest MS updates online, or if anyone else has similar problems.

  Any response would be appreciated.  Thank you!

  J.

  Of course, if you cannot start the computer, uninstall the updates would be moot & system restore (or 'last good' known) would be your only recourse.

  Again, see http://www.microsoft.com/security/pypc.aspx
