Re: Life of the battery of the Satellite A660-141

How does the satellite A660-141 has a battery 6 cells as many other toshiba models, but has a maximum of 4h15min! How is it?

More than 4 hours on Satellite A660. It's great!
I have more Satellite A300 and I can work on battery power max 2.5 hours. It's good enough for this laptop, but a little more time will be better of course.

What is your experience with Satellite A660? To be honest, I think about exchanging my machine with this new model.

  • Had to remove password on the Satellite A660-18

    Hello

    I have problem with my laptop Satellite A660-18 access, it asks for the password, I have not to remember (or know). I bought it to the United Kingdom in 2010, since it is the first time I faced this problem. Is there any possibility to get this password remotely, because I'm afraid there is no toshiba service center in a city (or), where I'm located now.

    All the advice that helps you solve this problem are much appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

  • Re: Need recovery to the Satellite A660-148 image

    Hello

    I want to download the restore DVD Toshiba Satellite A660-148, and I format the HARD drive recovery partition. Please, help me to restore my laptop to factory original state!
    its first operating system installed! Inovation TOSHIBA...

    Hello tarek

    Recovery image can not be downloaded. You must create it on your own using preinstalled Toshiba Recovery Disk Creator.

    If you have formatted the recovery partition, it is impossible to create more. Now you have to buy the original DVD of recovery under https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

  • Need information about the Satellite A660 - 18 d

    I'm considering the purchase of Satellite A660 18 * N * laptop and have been Curry to take a look, however, I only found the 18 * D *, which does not appear to exist based on the toshiba site. It is a real product?
    And if so, what are the differences between this and the 18.

    Computers notebooks are specific products of country so you won't find them all in your country. All you can do is buy laptops offered in your country with the right language of the OS.

    In any case, I think that both models should be offered to the United Kingdom, but I'm not 100% sure on this subject.
    Have you checked if the other store offers 18?

    Difference?
    Only difference, I found it is CPU. 18 has Intel Core I7-740QM and 18(d) a processor Intel Core I7-720QM.

  • Re: Extra partition on the Satellite A660

    Today, I bought my Satellite A660. Because it was a showroom model, the seller perform a (very long) factory settings reset.

    On this laptop, I see only a single disk partition (volume) visible: C-560 GB volume.

    In disk management, there are altogether 4 partitions:
    -recovery partition: 1.46 GB
    -primary partition: 25,05 Go, which I can remove only, no other function is possible
    -primary partition: 9,61 Go, which I can remove only, no other function is possible
    -primariy partition, system startup,...: 560 GB = C-volume

    I guess the 2 primary partitions (25.05 and 9.61 GB) are hidden, partitions used to reset to the factory settings. I know that it is better to leave them alone; You never know. On the other hand, why would there be two?

    I can release about 280 GB for a new partition.

    When I try to create a volume D, the system informs me that this operation requires dynamic disks and the following States that there is insufficient disk space to perform this action.
    When I navigate around on some internet for one, I learn that the standard Windows can support up to 4 partitions.

    If that were the case, partitions to delete for me to create this second volume?
    If there is another reason why I can't create my second volume (D), can someone explain to me what is the problem and how can I solve this problem?

    Kind regards

    At first, I have to say that everything is fine there and if you have good operating system at first, please create restore using preinstalled Toshiba Recovery media creator DVD. To create recovery discs use DVD-R virgins only.

    So, after doing this, you can do experiments with your new Satellite phone and optimize the partitions. If something goes wrong, you can use the created recovery DVD and reinstall the OS.
    For this application use out of the box.

    You know I have Satellite A660 and have tested all recovery options to see how this works exactly and what is happening with each available recovery option. All this is not so bad, but maybe a little complicated.

    In front of me I have original preinstalled A660 and open disk management and the situation is a little different as on your laptop.
    Follow the partitions appear:
    # 1.46 GB (recovery partition) Please note this score has nothing to do with the Toshiba recovery procedure
    GB partition # 453,89 it's partition C shown in Windows Explorer
    GB hidden # 10.46 on this partition partition is saved Toshiba recovery image so if you want to use the disk HARD recovery option do not delete it.

    So I really don t know why you have 4 of them.
    I recommend you to follow:
    # create recovery DVDs
    # install new OS using the HDD recovery procedure (F8 at startup > fix my computer) and selected the option out of the box.

    During the installation of recovery is complete, you will have the same State of partitions of HARD drive than I. You can enter the disk management shrink volume C (for example 200 GB less than before) and on this unallocated (200 GB) partition to create the new partition.

    If you have any other questions let me know.

  • Using headphones on the Satellite A660-BT2G22-sound reads from speakers

    When I plug my Satellite A660-BT2G22 portable headphone the sound plays on the speakers and headphones.

    There must be a way for me to make the game sound only through the headphones and I'd really like that because I'm going to College and will have a roommate and I want to listen to my own music and other things and not force him to hear my stuff all the time.

    Help, please?

    This model of laptop is not known to me, but check the control panel and option for some audio Manager there. Ago on laptops with Soundcard Realtek Realtek HD Audio manager.
    Check all the options, especially little folder symbol placed on the upper right side. When you click the connector settings window will open. Enable auto popup dialogue.

  • Question about the battery life of the Satellite L40-139

    It's maybe a stupid question, but I have a portable Satellite L40-139 and the battery lasts less time, is this correct.
    In the power management, I chose energy-saving. I used to be a mobile system and it could take 2-3 hours. The answers would be great.

    The laptop uses Vista. Am I wrong?
    Well, I don't wonder that you can run Notepad only for an hour approximately.
    Vista needs for more resources as a BONE at the beginning. In addition, there are a few bugs in Vista, who have a bad influence on the performance of the battery!
    You can perform a search in internet for Vista and the problem of battery on laptops and you will find a lot of information.
    The same laptop with XP runs twice as long on battery as with Vista.

  • Cannot connect the Satellite A660 to WLan - card not found Intel

    I unboxed it today and connected to my home wireless network. Everything was fine.
    I propose then my laptop in the living room where the router and the modem is, the connection dies less than a minute or two.
    Then he says that there are no networks in range at all, cannot detect everything.

    I troubleshoot it and the results are: he says: problem with the router / access point is fixed; and another notification that says a network cable is disconnected or may be broken. I have no cable so idk why he tries a wired connection. I reset my router and tried everything.

    I take her back to połączyćto left home in my room and it works fine, no drop outs.
    It's all new, satellite a66. I made sure that my data was on and the wifi is good.

    Another notification appears when I troubleshoot that says "My technology Intel wifi adapter not found" idk what it is all...

    Thank you.

    JD

    > Another notification appears when I troubleshoot that says "My technology Intel wifi adapter not found" idk what it is all...
    Because of this message, I would recommend checking the status of the WiFi (WLan card) adapter in Device Manager.
    You could uninstall the WLan driver in Device Manager.
    Then you need to download the latest driver from this page:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/

    and should install the new drivers.
    Reconfigure the Wlan connection and test functionality.

    PS: Please make sure that the WiFi was enabled (FN + F8) before trying to set up the connection.

  • Calibration of the screen on the Satellite A660-12th

    Hello

    I am a graphic designer, so the contrast and the color balance are really important to me.
    But I could not find an effective way to calibrate the screen of my laptop.

    Anyone have a good solution?

    Hello

    You can use software such as Adobe Gamma (if you have adobe Photoshop) or QuickGamma (it of free).
    http://www.QuickGamma.de/indexen.html

    In display-> tab color management properties, you can add color profiles.
    I add the profile of my Adobe Photoshop.

    But given that Windows 7 supports own calibration tool, you can try this as well.

  • Question about consumption on the Satellite A660-10W

    My A660-10W (new) was wrong and Toshiba (Mafil in Israel) has changed the hard drive.
    Now the computer acts differently that before when I got it like new.

    For example; and my question is:
    1. After about 15 minutes, it automatically goes into sleep mode.
    I understand that the setting can be changed, however I would like to know if this happens when something is running?
    either I left the WD external BACK-UP running, but he fell asleep...
    2. the same thing will happen if Im watching a movie, for example?

    Thank you

    Laptop can't handle in different way. I guess you are using the recovery of images (Toshiba original Win7) and parameters are exactly the same as before.
    # Yes, you can change it. Simply enter the change plan settings for the power plan that you use, and where you can change the time when the laptop should go to mode "Eve". You can also disable using Pétion NEVER.
    # I can't say with certainty, but on my computer laptop doesn t go "standby mode", when I watch the movie. Test it. Set for 2 minutes and put on a movie.
