On my Satellite A660 TV tuner does not work

Hello

I bought a Toshiba Satellite A660-07 one a few months ago and then reinstalled Windows 7 32-bit system in order to have more than a few partitions. But I had not deleted the hidden partition the system just in case I need to restore factory settings.

Now I have moved to a remote area and need a TV but only to discover that the tuner did not work. It is detected correctly under sound devices and games in the Device Manager. However, when I use windows media center to scan channels. The WMC just says the software has encountered a serious error and try again.

Then I tried to use Blaze DTV, which is also a very popular DTV software. Successfully, it recognizes the Tuner but will not scan either.

I did some research and used the advocatus of configuration of the tuner TV in Windows 7. The warning message is that "the tuner is not properly configured to be used in Windows Media Center". And the details show that the tuner is plugged but not active for the WMC.

But how do I then activate the tuner for WMC?

Really hope that someone can help as I am now panic in a small town remote in New Testament.

Thank you!

I see a big problem here. If you have installed your own version of Windows then you will not be able to start the installation of image factory more.
Due to this fact Toshiba strongly recommends the creation of recovery DVDs. It is described in s operating manuals.

In any case, one question at first: you've found the right 32-bit driver TV tuner? TV tuner is installed correctly?

  • Satellite A660 - TV tuner does not

    Only, I bought my new laptop about a month ago. While not a required feature, the seller was sure to point out that she had a TV tuner and could record digital TV. I got it working fantastically via Windows Media Center... for about a week. Now, he just tells my my TV tuner is not found or is not available. Library reconfiguration does not work as it does not acknowledge the tuner.

    Any ideas?

    Can you please check the Device Manager to see if there is some unknown device? Also check entry TV tuner.

  • Satellite A10 S203: sound does not work - just enough

    Hello!

    To my satellite A10 S203 sound does not work, I updated my sound card and the bios but nodifferents. Nothing in the system that says that I have something wrong whith my sound is just enough. I tried speakers headphones and challenging systemsounds, mp3, Auidi direct works cd... nothing.

    Any tip?
    [email protected]

    First check the status of the sound card in Device Manager.
    If there is a yellow climbing brand then you should try to reinstall the driver. (first remove it and after reboot, install a new)

    Have you checked the volume setting and the site of laptop? Eventually he s a very simple idea, but believe me, I read many comments here in the forum and a lot of guys forget this option simply.

    Of course, your laptop is completely dead. In such situation, there is no magic solution and I m afraid that you need professional help. If there is absolutely no reaction is maybe defective electronic power supply and the motherboard must be exchanged.

    As you know this is part more expensive so you need to check if this is the solution for you.

    Click on update drivers who cannot do anything like MS is far behind the certification of drivers. Then RIGHT

    If your driver shows 06 you have the default windows and part of the question.

    Go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest Audio/Sound drivers - download - SAVE - go to the place where you
    Put them - right click on Reboot - RUN AS ADMIN -.

    Check the Version tab of the driver in the Device Manager as the restoration of the sound card drivers often

    Then navigate to the site of the manufacturer of the device and search for the drivers more recent and repeat the installation procedure.

  • Re: Satellite A660 - media buttons do not work

    First of all I apologize if my language is not good, because I'm Spanish.

    I have a * Toshiba Satellite A660-13D * and this model has a button touch media at the top, next to the keyboard. Here is a picture with the buttons marked in red: [http://forums.toshiba.com/tshb/attachments/tshb/brd_input/10621/1/Toshiba-Satellite-A660-Multimedia-Notebook.jpg]
    Two days ago the buttons works well. There are a few buttons, one for an ecological mode, one to turn wireless on or off, one for play/pause Media Player, etc.. These buttons work only those who turn up and down volume. The button that activates / deactivates the Mouse-touchpad does not work too.

    I'm looking for solutions, and one of them suggests the BIOS update. I tried to update my BIOS with the downloadable files of the Toshiba website for my model of PC, but when I run the executable, it always crashes with this message: Winflash for UEFI has stopped working. I read on someone with the same problem as me and someone replied that he should try executing the BIOS via a .iso file burned into a CD-Rom and boot from it. But, where I could get this .iso file? If I enter on the Toshiba site in English and go to the download section, I can't find my model Satellite, so I can not get the appropriate files. Is my Toshiba Satellite A660 13d, and I find only A660-ST2GX1, A660-BT2G22, A660-BT3N25X and similar products.

    I would really appreciate if someone can help me with this. Thank you.

    Try please reinstall extra package from Toshiba.

  • Satellite U920T - function keys does not work after update to Win 10

    Hello, good morning / evening...

    I use (U920T satellite) and recently updated my Windows 10 Tablet
    but after that, the function keys, volume, brightness, key FN and even the backlight does not work anymore!

    I tried to restore the system and update the driver software but nothing has worked...

    I use these keyboard shortcuts all the time and now it's really hard without them!

    What is the problem? What should I do?

    The problem is that U920T satellite is not listed as Win 10 support unit and, therefore, drivers earn 10 Toshiba and software that controls the FN keys is not released.
    But as far as I know using the FN keys, system of Toshiba and the Support of Flash Card Utility driver must be installed.

    For all Toshiba units win 10 supported, the drivers can be downloaded from this page:
    http://win10upgrade.Toshiba.com/swup...SPX?region=TEG

    Maybe you can try the drivers released for other models of portable Win 10 supported...
    I'm not sure if the software will be compatible with your model of U920T, but its certainly worth a try...

    Hello!

    I put t understand why Windows 7 is so popular right now it s only a beta version

    However, I think that the reason for this is why no Toshiba tool is available at the moment, but I can understand that because Windows 7 is not yet out.
    You can try to install the package of value added. This is for Vista, but maybe it works also on Windows 7 being the most drivers for Vista works on Windows 7 too.

  • Satellite A100: Recovery DVD does not work

    I want to restore my Toshiba Satellite A100 laptop to its original factory condition, but the DVD that comes with the package of recovery does not work...

    I have load to start computer press F12, and it starts on the DVD. It says "Loading RAMDISK Image", after which I am told by Toshiba customer service there should be options to clean up the hard drive or restore Windows XP.

    However, after VIRTUAL disk, I see a cursor on a black screen, and then the laptop off and restarts. After the connection, NO CHANGES made...

    What is the problem with that? How can I really use this recovery DVD?
    Someone help me please.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    The recovery procedure is not difficult.
    Just try to boot from the recovery CD or DVD and follow the Guide on the screen line.

    Your problem is very strange. You have created all the partitions on the HARD drive?
    I put really t know why your recovery CD doesn't work properly, but I think you should try to completely format the disk (also partitions), then try to boot from the recovery CD.

    Don't forget that the laptop is in the boot mode. (don t mix the standby or hibernation mode)

  • Satellite L775 - mouse pad does not work properly

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite L775. I run Win 7 Home Premium. My mouse pad does not work properly. I also have a Logitech Anywhere MX wireless mouse. I tried the mouse pad to work properly with the key FN and F9, but it does not work. And you really have no idea if that turns or out of the mousepad anyway, subj for another time I guess.

    What does not work, but I have to do is to go to Control Panel then mouse option load that and just scroll the tabs without changing what each time and then close and the touch pad works. But only for this session. If I have my laptop nearby, or turn it off, I have to start throughout the whole process.

    What's past and how to fix this?

    Thank you very much.

    > What's past and how to fix this?
    After reading your ad, I still don t know what is your problem.

  • Satellite Pro L300 - touchpad does not work

    Hi all that I need help urgent because it drives me crazy. First of all, I use XP PRO. My laptop is fairly new, only around the age of 4 months, I had no problem with it at all. I formatted my laptop yesterday and reinstalled all the drivers that I downloaded here:

    http://www.ISD.Toshiba.com.au

    and everything works fine except the touchpad. I have already installed shared, utilitarian toggle the touchpad Module and I have the latest BIOS installed and reset all default settings and I made sure that the touchpad is enabled in the BIOS, but also pressing FN + F9 to enable during Windows.

    I installed the latest touchpad driver Synpatics I downloaded from the homepage of Synaptics. But for some reason any, that it does not work, I don't know what is the problem here. My touchpad worked before I formatted my laptop, it worked fine and has never had any problems. Will you please tell me what is wrong because I need to use my touchpad sometimes as well, so I can't use a mouse all the time.

    Hello

    > I installed the latest Synaptics touchpad driver that I downloaded from the home page of Synaptics
    I think that you question refers simply to the driver for the touchpad that is missing or incorrect.
    I put t know how it works on Toshiba notebook Australian, but the Toshiba European Satellite Pro L300 units needs touchpad different drivers. some use the Toshiba touchpad driver and some units need a driver for the Synaptics touchpad.

    In your case, I recommend this controlled again.

    By the way; My touchpad is always disabled so that en external mouse is connected.
    It is parameters that control it. Please check in your touchpad properties too!

  • Satellite Pro M10 - infrared does not work properly

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro M10 and my infrared does not work. I downloaded the zip file with the drivers from this site. Then, I uninstalled and reinstalled, but it always happens in the Device Manager under "unknown - SMC IrCC - Fast Port infrared (IR Module: HP). (with an exclamation point). When I look at the properties it says under device status:

    This device does not work properly because Windows cannot load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31)

    Click Troubleshoot to start the troubleshooter for this device.

    However, under Driver Details is said:
    C:\windows\system32\DRIVERS\smcirda.sys

    I extracted the zip file in my home directory of c:\downloads\infrared.
    whatever I do, it does not now. It worked when I bought it, but I have too many things on the system for a new installation. Which brings me to another question. Is it possible to re - install windows without losing all your data, etc.? I did it with other systems (95,98) Windows. But it seems that the Toshiba recovery disc means any wiping.

    Thanks in advance for any help.
