On Satellite C660-1J2 keyboard problems

I have 2 laptops from Toshiba, type Satellite C660-1J2 used by 2 different people and we both have the same problem.
The problem is with typing, many times it jumps a letter and sometimes a letter not to show, and then when you hit it again you get 2 letters and sometimes just get 2 letters to hit once.

We tested it and it's a real big problem for us, because we use it for school...

Help us please!

Update the BIOS this will certainly solve!
There are a lot of discussions on this issue and the update of the BIOS helped to address this problem.

In addition, I found this article in the knowledge base:

    Hi Tony

    This should not be so problematic. Start your laptop and the pres F8 several times. When you enter advanced boot options choose option to fix my computer.

    Just follow the menu on the screen.

  • Satellite C660-1J2 - about speed of Wlan

    Hello
    I have a Satellite C660 1J2
    Win7 Pro 64 bit 8Meg Ram
    Driver Realtek rtl8188ce 19 wifi / 420/1005-2011-20/04/2011

    My setup is a router linksys wrt54gs + wre54g amplifier and the toshiba uses wifi, through the amplifier when I start the tosh every day, the connection is always big 5 bars, but speed is always moving between 18 to 36.

    The amplifier is 3 feet distance and in line of sight. If I push the disconnect and re connect speed to 54 and rest until I have shut the tosh at night.

    I got a sony vaio before and not issue however the wifi card was only the b - g card.

    Is it a no number or you think has something to do with the ariel is a reason for updating the driver in the latest version on the website of Realtek 28/1005-1006-2011?

    If you think an update is guaranteed can you confirm it is correct for my tosh and it says auto install, what I have to do something to install or

    can you suggest anything else.

    It seems as if the tosh cannot see the amplifier and when I do a disconnection and reconnection, he can see the amplifier.

    Thanks for any help

    I recommend you update the WLan driver if new version is available.
    It is possible that the compatibility between different routers and modems would improve with new version

    However, I also recommend to check the power of Win 7 options and disable WLan Card to save energy.
    This power save can save the battery, but affect the WLan functionality.

  • Satellite C660 - several keyboard LAG

    Hello

    I was the owner of a Toshiba Satellite C660 for about five days, and I already feel lag serious keyboard. As users of the model L270 and other posters on this forum, the keyboard has slowed down considerably and letters are being omitted, slow down the process of typing.

    I tried to update my BIOS, many posters have suggested, but my BIOS is bang up to date.

    I have not tried to remove the battery or something like that. Frankly if I do get my keyboard is working properly the computer goes to the rear and I'm demanding a refund.

    Any ideas?

    Hey,.

    I've never seen users L270 here... As much as I know there is not a model for laptop

    In any case, that s really strange and I have never heard of this problem on the Satellite C660. I think all you can do is updated the BIOS and using the pre-installed Windows version. If you still notice the same behavior, ask the seller for a replacement model.

    I agree with the new: this t shouldn't happen on a portable five-day old.

  • Satellite Pro C50 keyboard problems - A - 1 L 6

    Hello

    I just bought this new Satellite Pro.

    I have installed all the drivers and updated the bios to the latest version, but I still have the same problem: when I write, many times my keyboard writes double letters (for example, all ten words written keyboard a letter double, as "keybboard").

    I tried also to change the properties of the keypad on the control panel of Windows 8, but nothing has changed.

    I called support, but they just told me that I have to bring my laptop in a helpdesk: but I need my new computer to work, and I wouldn't be happy to lose at least 4 weeks!

    And, support told me that, if the laptop has no hardware problem, I would have to pay for assistance...
    .
    So, this is my first experience and unlucy in the world of Toshiba...
    Is there someone who can give me some advice to solve this problem?
    It may be a problem running on the new laptops, and someone knows how to fix this?

    Thank you very much!

  • Satellite C660-1TT - BIOS problems

    Hi all...

    I sat and would update the bios for my Toshiba Satellite C660-1TT (PSC1QE-01D006N5)

    Sloopy as I was, I left the computer to get a coffee, * obviously one of my children was there * and press a few buttons. This resulted in the computer 'frozen' after a while I was forced to turn off.

    Now change back the time and date each time I start the computer, and I can´t get the wifi to work.
    I tried to reinstall the bios again but then get the message that I already have the same or more recent bios and installation is complete.

    Someone who can tell if I wrong somehow the computer into thinking it is a newer version or the mabye bring in the former and then update?

    Grateful for any help! Robert

    (excuse my bad English)

    Hello

    To my knowledge it is not possible to downgrade the BIOS in windows mode, because you will always have a notification, this new version is already installed.
    To my knowledge the ASP technician Toshiba may downgrade the BIOS but only using the traditional version of BIOS (BACK).

    But I recommend to test this workaround solution.
    Shut down the laptop. Remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter.
    Now let the laptop disconnected for a longer period of time, I think about 3-4 hours
    Then plug the battery adapter and ac and access the BIOS by pressing F2 to turn on/off the unit.
    Here, you must set the default BIOS (F9) and save the changes.
    Now, start Notepad and check how it would work.

    Usually, the date and time resets because the CMOS battery is empty. But I can't imagine that this could be a problem here, however, you can reload the CMOS battery running the laptop on area for 18 to 20 hours. During this time the laptop must be ONE.

  • Re: Satellite P200 (PSPB6E) - keyboard problem

    Hello

    I have a keyboard with Satellite P200, series PSPB6E problem.

    Keyboard seems to generate Press Page Down constantly, although nothing has been paid to this subject.
    It is even difficult to turn on laptop, because it produced consecutive beeps and prevents the computer from starting.

    Sometimes some keyboard characters do not work, and in the second time it works. Sometimes same PgDown works as expected.
    Œuvres for additional keyboard, but it also receives PgDown keyboard of the laptop.

    Now, I can't insert any sentence in this post, because PgDown will move the cursor down.
    Laptop is under warranty. Should I enable it?

    I note that no. LIQUID is poured on the keyboard.

    On the keyboard of the computer laptop not work keys A, B, N, LEFT SHIFT, INPUT, same brief moments where PgDown keys not dumping. Sometimes even these key works!

    Best regards
    Vladimir Stefanovic

    Great news, buddy! :)

    I also have good experience with my ASP. They fixed the laptop as soon as possible and the repair took only a few days. It's also free.

    So still I m happy with the service!

  • On Satellite A505-S6973 keyboard problems

    Goodday once again everyone,

    Can someone tell me if the built-in on my Satellite A505-S6973 keyboard has a backlight.
    I watch a lot of these new laptops and similar to mine, under the keyboard it is white and I don't know if that's how it's supposed to light. If so, can someone tell me.

    On the Toshiba U.S. support page I checked the specification for laptop computer and, of course, your laptop doesn t have this backlit keyboard.
    Just FYI: all illuminated keyboard have FN + Z option to turn on/off illumination.
    With other words symbol small keyboard will be on the Z key.

    This option, when the backlit keyboard is in the book is also available in Toshiba HWSetup tool.

  • Satellite C660-28 d - problem "Load driver" with the new HARD drive

    I have a Toshiba Satellite C660-28 t.

    The hard drive has failed. I called Toshiba Support who send me a replacement.

    However in the meantime I was going to put in my spare hard drive and do a fresh install of another operating system that I have a spare for (Win 7) key.

    However, I can't past the screen "Loading Drivers" as the laptop came with driver disks.
    I can't find the drivers on the Toshiba site (I tried some drivers intel which I thought were good, but he says they were not signed and all comes down to the loading screen drivers).

    I have made the recovery discs, but obviously can not use them on the new hard drive as it doesn't have the recovery partition.

    Any ideas on where I can get the proper drivers from?

    Thank you

    > I made the recovery discs, but obviously can not use them on the new hard drive as it doesn't have the recovery partition.

    If you have a recovery disk using Toshiba preinstalled recovery media creator tool, you just have to boot from that disk to begin the installation.

    More info: all the recovery disk for Toshiba Europe, models of laptops can be ordered here:

  • Satellite Pro C660-1LR keyboard problem, there type y7 and 7 types y7.

    I plugged a USB keyboard and it works well. That means it's the internal keyboard hardware that is defective? How long is the warranty on these laptops?
    I removed the Y key, and there is nothing stuck in the origin of the problem.

    > I plugged a USB keyboard and it works well. That means it's the internal keyboard hardware that is defective?

    Yes, exactly
    You need new keyboard
    Ask Toshiba authorized service partner for a keyboard that you can also order a 2nd common hand keyboard from ebay or some online dealers

    standard warranty is valid for 12 months long...

  • On the Satellite U50T-A keyboard problem

    I have a U50T.-a Satellite.
    Control device (keyboard) shows the following error message:
    Windows cannot start this hardware device because its information of configuration (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)

    I tried to solve this problem, but I don't know what to do.

    Message was edited: assignment has been translated

    Are you abele to use the USB mouse or the touchpad?

    If Yes, then you should be able get the system back to point in time at the beginning.

    Restart the computer, go to the area of backup and system restore, then select the save point that has been created in the past.

    This restores the system and fix the registry.

    I think the keyboard should work after this procedure.
