Re: Magenta/Purple mount screen Satellite Pro C660-2JR

Hello

I just brought a new laptop Satellite Pro C660-2JR and a few hours after getting it I noticed he has a purple cast/tint on any gray tones and is especially noticeable if a B & W image is seen because it has tones of purple, white and black with grey wire no real!

Its very visible on the default settings (which are mostly dressed and contrasting even after I turned the backlight down) and I adjusted the brightness, contrast and gamma via graphics driver as by test cards, but despite that I get this darn will not disappear.

Is the only way to sort of get rid of him for the contrast of the Green layer but affecting the other colors as well so it's not really solve the problem and the cast usually ends either be clear or green purple with no real neutral gray.

This distribution is visible in all lighting and all the corners of the screen.

I send it back for a replacement or open a repair warranty on the laptop, is there anything anyone can suggest I do?

It is not easy to discuss this issue. We will see what it looks like.

In my opinion, you should contact your local dealer, compare it with other laptops of the same series and ask for replacement.

  • Satellite Pro C660-2JR - wifi is not connecting

    Hello

    I just bought a laptop Satellite Pro C660-2JR for my daughter, the unit works fine on lan cable, but not connecting not wireless.
    Wireless indicator shows an intense tone, but when I click on connect after that 10 seconds, it says connected failed.

    The network settings are correct (I checked with two other computers that connect without problem), the pc is running x 64 win7. on the toshiba site there is no drivers listed for the local network, I downloaded and installed the drivers from realtek realtek Web site, but no difference.
    Is this a problem with x 64?

    Thank you

    Rob

    On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is, but there must be a problem with the WLAN settings I guess. What else? Your laptop can detect your router. Question is: what router do you have, what WLAN standard do you use, and you have WIFI password or not.

    Have you tried to reboot your router and check again?
    When you unlock your router you have the same problem?

  • Creating discs of recovery for Satellite Pro C660-2JR

    Hello

    is there a way to have the recovery disks installed win7 x 32 instead of x 64 (Satellite Pro C660-2JR)

    If your laptop has been delivered with the 64-bit version, you can create the recovery for this preinstalled only version disk. With other words, saved on the recovery partition recovery image is recorded on DVD disc. It's nothing more than that.

    If you want to use the 32 bit OS, you must check if your phone model is supported for him and install the clean version.

  • Satellite Pro C660 does not start, no screen

    Hi guys I was wonder if anyone could help please.

    I have a Toshiba laptop Satellite Pro C660 - 2 DR who seems to be defective (just out of warranty).
    Everything worked fine until we came to a morning market and found that the screen remains off (black screen). There are no output through the VGA as I tested it on an external monitor.

    The CPU fan turns for a few seconds and then turns off.
    There is no noise from the hard drive read/write either. The power light stays on. I removed the hard drive to access data on another system that worked Fortunately

    . I also removed the RAM, battery and optical drive, but there is still no output to the screen.

    Is it sounds like a faulty motherboard?
    The laptop seems to be in excellent condition.

    Is there something else I can try please? I would be very grateful for any advice.

    Rich

    Yes, it looks like the faulty motherboard or a part of the motherboard as RAM or CPU.
    You said that you have already removed the RAM, but have you used a good RAM module tested?

    Theoretically, it could be just a problem of RAM but in the worst case, you will need to replace the motherboard and I think it would be really expensive repair.

  • Need cable to screen for my Satellite Pro C660 2JD

    I tried to find a Satellite Pro C660-2JD display cable for several months now with absolutely no luck at all... I even tried to display the C660 series cables and none of them seem to match, there seems to be it's own cable.

    Anyone know where I can find the display for this model of laptop cable? Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    It is quite difficult to find these parts. When I need something I look for on eBay. With a bit of luck, you will find many parts for models of different laptops.

    Have you tried to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask if they can get this cable for you?

  • Satellite Pro C660 graphic needs driver upgrade for Adobe Lightroom 6

    I tested 5 Lightroom on my Satellite Pro C660 and it worked fine.

    I decided to do it, and that week Lightroom 6 came out, so I bought Lightroom 6.

    LR6 gets to the start screen, then stops and closes the Windows7.
    I contacted Adobe and they went on my machine and identified the problem as being the graphics card and says I need an update of the driver.

    I've been on the Toshiba site and it says that the latest driver is 8.15.10.2189, which is the one I currently have (and was changed in 2012).

    I've been on the Intel site and their obtrusive says that the machine has a pilot custom then contact Toshiba.
    I looked around the Intel site and tried to install that seem to be plausible drivers, but have not found one that would install.

    My installation includes a monitor LG 22 "connected to the laptop with the spread of the desktop on both screens (laptop and monitor).

    No one knows what would be the upgrade of the driver I need or how can I know?

    James

    The page Intel graphics driver can be used, and you can also download the driver directly from the page.

    This CPU does support your laptop?
    What Intel GPU (Intel HD graphics chipset *) is the support of laptop?

    The Intel download page provides a driver Intel as an exe or zip package
    https://Downloadcenter.Intel.com/

    You need to download and unpack the zip package.
    You will then be able to update the driver in Device Manager, choose the Advanced installation update procedure.

  • Satellite Pro C660 - restore to factory settings

    Hello.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro C660.

    I have some problems with this computer and I intend to sell it.
    I want to set the computer to how it was when I took it out of the box.

    I read a lot of popular advice on that. I tried holding 0, which do not work. I entered in the system by pressing f8. I get a screen when I get options on what I want to do with my computer, but it is not an option that allows me to look again at 'out of the box"State.
    What I read, this option is supposed to be here.
    I have no restore disk as laptop did not come with one.
    I am running to options

    Can anyone help?

    Thank you

    Laura

    Hi Laura

    What you want to do is HARD recovery disk image installation and it works as described in the
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/HTD1303440001R02.htm

    To be clear: this works if your laptop is always the factory settings. If your laptop is preinstalled with the clean version of the OS option repair your computer will not be available more.

    Problem is that this situation can be avoided if the owner of the laptop has created the installation disc of recovery following the instructions described in the user s manuals document. I presume you didn't create this disc.

    Now, there is only one option to get the original on your machine settings: you need to order the original disc of recovery for your laptop model and you can do it on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx

    Or you can remove all the important data of your machine and sell with actual configuration.

    Hello

    I think the drawing application needs the graphics driver that supports OpenGL.
    To my knowledge, the driver of the Intel page should already contain the OpenGL.
    The Satellite supports graphics Intel HD (Intel HM55) so I think that you should use the driver from the Intel page, even if the update utility indicates that you are using the latest driver.

    I think that you need to uninstall the old driver through the Device Manager.
    In addition, check whether it should be uninstalled in the control panel-> software.

    Then download the latest driver for the Intel HM55 chipset, and install it via the Device Manager.
    You do this by using the Advanced installation procedure that will force windows to select the driver from the driver's record, that you have downloaded from the Intel page.

  • Satellite Pro C660 - 24 k: Webcam/Microphone and interface issues

    I went on Skype to talk and I found that it could not detect a webcam, and the other person couldn't hear my voice. I checked Device Manager and no imagery or recording device has been found.
    The camera and microphone are integrated. They have worked before.

    There is another problem that may be related. When I got the laptop, when I pressed the fn key, a bar at the top of the pop up screen would be who showed me what did all the various f keys. It no longer appears.

    Also, when I got the laptop, if I plug headphones or an external mic into the line out Sockets, a pop-up message would be. In this case no longer, and the laptop is not receiving any input headphones I plug into it.

    I tried to reinstall the drivers of webcam, but in vain. According to Device Manager there is no. If this were the only problem, so I can put down to damage, but other problems give me a feeling it has something to do with a kind of software can I have accidentally disabled or deleted, which exercises control over the webcam/mic and the line output, which also produces pieces of UI such as the fn key.

    I can't identify a moment when it stopped working I barely noticed the webcam and the microphone does not work as I them haven't used for a while. I noticed, however, how pressing the "fn" key is no longer shows the respective information on the screen.

    The menu of the FN button that appears just by pressing the FN key combination is controlled by the Support of Flash memory card utility.
    Try restarting this software located in all programs > Toshiba-> Flash Cards

    If this does not work, reinstall the Support of Flash memory card utility.

    > Also, when I got the laptop, if I plug headphones or an external mic into the line out Sockets, a pop-up message would be. In this case no longer, and the laptop is not receiving any input headphones I plug into it.

    It seems that the laptop supports the Realtek audio chip. That is why the Realtek HD audio Manager must be preinstalled and placed in the Panel.
    Go to the dashboard-> Realtek HD audio manager
    In the upper right corner, there is a small yellow folder called "Connector settings" in my version.
    There, finally I could re-enable the setting "enable popup dialog box, when the unit is plugged.

    I m not sure about the question of the webcam... perhaps that the system is confusing the Skype upwards and face recognition software uses the same cam then perhaps you should uninstall the software for the webcam, Skype and a face recognition software and must restart the laptop. After the software installation of webcam, facing new to Skype and recognition software.

  • Satellite Pro C660-29W. How to remove the supervisor password

    Hi all
    I've been locked out of my bios and I don't know the password. My little brother was playing with my laptop computer and accidentally set the supervisor password. Is it possible that I can recover the password or reset it? I really need to change my boot sequence as I just bought a new SSD and need to format my laptop. Suggestions will be highly appreciated.

    Here's my version of bios and details of laptop

    Toshiba satellite Pro C660-29W

    CPU Intel Core i5 2410 M

    8 GB Ram DDR3

    BIOS: BIOS FRIEND - installation utility Aptio
    BIOS system ver: 1.50
    THIS Version: 1.50

    Thank you

    Supervisor password is very important safety device and a kind of reset of the user is not possible. You can cancel it, but you must know the correct password to confirm that you are the real owner computer laptop.

    Toshiba provider in your country can help you with this. You just approve that you are owner of the laptop, and they can cancel it for you. Of course, you must pay for it.

    As far as I know, there are several techniques for the removal of password and it depends on phone model.

    Contact the closest Toshiba ASP and ask for help.

  • Cannot install Win 8 - Satellite Pro C660 does not detect HARD drive

    Hello

    My HARD drive died, so I decided to upgrade my Satellite Pro C660 - 1 9 to an SSD.
    I made a USB bootable with Win8 and starts very well.

    The problem is that it does not detect my SSD, so I can proceed with the installation.
    SSD appears in BIOS but not in Windows Installer.
    He said that there is a missing driver.

    I downloaded the AHCI drivers (XP, only ones available) and even in this case, after you have selected the only rider that appears, it says no new device found.

    I tried to change the SATA from AHCI mode to compatibility mode and it's the same thing...

    What can I do?

    Thanks for the help.
    Best regards
    Bruno Moreira

    More old Windows XP need a driver AHCI Intel's but I think this isn't a problem with SATA driver missing because as far as I know Windows 8 as well as Win 8.1 already contains the drivers to recognize the SSD or HARD disk drive.
    In addition, the installation of the OS should be possible even if the driver would be added for this procedure, you must use the "compatibility" mode
    As you say, the compatibility mode is not working too, so I think there is another problem.

    However, page driver Toshiba also provides a driver Intel RST (Intel Rapid Storage Technology) (Windows 8 - updated) you can try to add during the installation of the OS.

    But I m wondering if you would be able to install this Win 8 on common SATA HDD.
    Have you tried to format the SSD using a different computer, then install Win 8?
    Give it a try.

  • Satellite Pro C660-1LR - new HARD drive but no recovery disk

    I need help for my son who is the Satellite Pro C660 1LR laptop.

    In this portable hard drive is completely dead, I have not created a disk of recovery for this system of portable computers.
    I bought a new hard drive that is installed... However, as you guessed it I have no access to reinstall an OS, this laptop works on windows 7.

    I'm not really tech savvy so if someone can advise me please do explain to the fool proof format! I try to avoid having to buy something expensive.

    > I'm trying to avoid having to buy something expensive.
    Problem is that you don't have many options in this regard.
    If you want to have the factory again settings you must install recovery disc. You can order on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx of course is not free, but, in my opinion, without a doubt the best solution.

    You can buy the Microsoft installation disc and install the clean version. You must purchase a valid license for it.
    In this case, you must install all the necessary drivers, tools and utilities for more than one by one.

    Just in case you can get this installation of Microsoft and the free license you can save money.

    Believe me, the best solution is the original recovery disk command.

  • Satellite Pro C660 - keyboard problems

    This issue is one for computer laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro C660-1UX running Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1.

    Some of the keys on Board (E, T, U, I, O, A, B, N, and the Enter key) fail to register.
    All keys tested so far seem to register normally.

    When you connect an external USB keyboard, all the keys work properly. When you use the integrated keyboard or external USB keyboard, however, pressed some key is selected for about 2-3 seconds so that his character register. This makes typing incredibly slow and is naturally unacceptable.

    I checked the Manager of devices looking for errors, but can't find one. The keyboard driver is classified properly installed and functional, and driver update indicates that the latest version is in already in service.

    I've also scanned for viruses using Spybot and Malware bytes and also with laptops own antivirus software pre-installed. All the analyses of the entire system refer a none found the message of threat.

    I read that the keyboards on these machines can sometimes be problematic, which could respond only to edge, some function keys. The fact that all the external USB keyboard keys work seems to confirm this. However, the fact that the keyboard both onboard and external is affected by the same slow pressure might also suggest a bios problem - but that this laptop computer is several years old and working perfectly, why bios suddenly would cause this problem.

    I visited the Toshiba site and based on this laptop with the part number: PSC0ME-02100SEN, I have concluded (rightly or wrongly) that the correct bios download version is 1, 70 - WIN, only when I read the following installation instructions http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9502M10000R01.htm bios
    I became quite concerned, like installing the bios update seems far from simple.

    Does anyone know if it is possible to download and install the bios right through an update automated versus manual download and installation step by step, which, if not carried out as planned, could make the laptop completely unusable.

    Has anyone reading this post experienced similar problems with this make and model laptop and was able to return successfully to the good operating condition. If so, how?

    All constructive advice would be welcome.

    > When you connect an external USB keyboard, all keys work correctly.

    This means that the keyboard controller is OK and the internal keyboard is defective.
    To resolve this problem of keyboard, internal keyboard needs to be replaced.

    > However, the fact that the keyboard on board as external is affected by the same keypress slow could also suggest a bios problem - but this laptop computer is several years old and works perfectly, why bios suddenly would cause this problem.

    Hmm I n t think so
    The keyboard delay can be bound to parameters.
    You can check this in the control panel-> keyboard
