Re: Satellite A660 - 11 M - Random freezing after the installation of recovery

Hello

I recently bought an A660 - 11 m, which I was happy for a few months and then it started to crash/freeze randomly in windows. I'd do something and then it just would freeze indefinitely, requiring a second 5 press the power button to turn it off manually. The fan and hard drives would continue to work if he did something, or they wouldn't be if I was not doing something at the time (this has happened four times). After that it's the only thing to do would be to reinstall the entire operating system by using the manufacturers recovery disk. The computer will then work fine for a few days or a few weeks (never more than 2 weeks) and it would be demanding full gel reinstall again. I had reinstall my programs every time but I stopped on the last 2 times and it made no difference.

After that the computer crashed it would then refuse to boot into windows. It would be still stuck just at the moment where the sign of windows appears. I would like to know that he had crashed as the 4 colored dots appear. The computer would simply wants at this point, continually getting stuck there after the reboot of several manual. Once and only once it booted into windows on its own, but it took almost 30 minutes and the computer is very slow and unresponsive. The computer will sometimes start in safe mode, but it varies. I tried Startup Repair tool and all stages of system restore, but none of these work.

I got to use Acronis true image10 and creating an image of the system which can then replace the whole computer in all 25mins. This saves me time, rather than wait 2 hours or whatever it is to reinstall the toshiba, but becomes quite ridiculous to have to keep re install every two weeks.

I also tried to buy a stand-alone copy of windows 7 (while recording an image of the partition of toshiba in the case where I need) I think it might be due to all toshiba programs and other bits and pieces that are installed on the computer - it makes much faster startup, but the computer still crashes the same after awhile.

I am sure its some ware conflicts or driver pretty hard, but I don't know what.

Any help please!

Hi Rob,

I m also do not know what exactly is the problem and I believe that no one here can say that just because it s just a user to user forum.

Fact is that if you have already tried restore factory Toshiba recovery disc multiple times, it s not a software or driver issue because it s an image pre-tested by Toshiba.

I guess it must be a hardware malfunction and therefore, you should contact a service provider for help. Guys can check your laptop and if it of under warranty, the repair is free.

You can find a list of aspic here:

Good luck! :)

  • Satellite P100-119 - software after the installation of recovery

    I use a Toshiba Satellite P100-119 since 2006. I want to run the original liveries Product Recovery CD after you back up all my data, so that with a vacuum system, the laptop gets even faster.

    But as there were pre-installed software (office, Toshiba programms) when I bought it, I don't know if they went after the recovery. I do not have CD for these programs, they were just pre-installed and what my Windows xp, should recover fully with the cd?

    Hey Buddy,

    After the installation of recovery, you have the same settings that bought the laptop. With other words recovery disk will restore the box settings.

    Firstly the recovery disk will wipe the entire HARD drive and remove all. After this Windows will be installed all the drivers and tools. In addition, will be also installed software preinstalled such as office, etc. and you can use it again. :)

    Backup all important data like the photo, music, etc. but everything will be removed for a clean install of Windows.

    After a format and reinstall my computer broken? He is 13 months here for out of warranty

    Hello

    Normally after the installation of recovery your laptop should work fine again.

    In my opinion, it could be a malfunction of the equipment. Did you test the HARD drive for bad sectors? You can do this with Drive Fitness Test: http://www.hitachigst.com/hdd/support/download.htm#DFT
    Download the ISO image and burn it to a disk. Then you can boot from it and test your HARD drive for errors.

    I also recommend to check the RAM for errors: http://memtest86.com/
    Memtest is a good diagnostic tool for the RAM.

    I hope I could help a bit. :)

  • Satellite M70 - black screen after the installation of recovery

After that he went through this process, that he told me to remove the disc that I did. Now he only get a black screen after the Toshiba screen that gives me options f2 for Setup and f12 for options.

    I don't know what to do now to make my laptop works again. Help, please.

    Hi Zach_1,

    Have you tried to launch the installation of recovery again? Maybe that something was wrong during the first installation, it might have arrived
    Then retry the recovery facility and see what happens.

    If it doesn't work you should try a normal Microsoft disk so determine if the problem is related to hardware or recovery disk.

  • Satellite L450D - 11G - hangs after the installation of recovery

    The recovery disc provided does not work. After you install all the files, it goes into a boot loop with "installing Windows for the first time, through 'Please wait', for flashing to the top of the home screen and then stop and restart.

    Is there any solution for this?

    Hey Buddy,

    You must wait a few minutes. On my laptop Satellite and Windows 7, I had the same problem. Windows will be reinstalled several times until the installation is complete and you will always see the same screen.

    Don t so worry about this. Everything is ok with your laptop! :)

  • Satellite C55 - A - no USB after the installation of recovery

    Hello

    I have a C55 - A Satellite and last week I have reset the laptop back to factory settings. But now I can't use the USB ports. On the site of Toshiba drivers, I downloaded new drivers but still the same problem. Now I can not use mu or other devices of dusb usb key. Can someone tell me what driver I need to install and where I can find it?

    I have windows 8.1 6 bits.

    I wonder why the USB ports do not work after restoring the laptop...

    Were you running the HARD drive recovery process or have you installed a clean windows system?

    Generally, all drivers are part of the image of Toshiba and all devices should work correctly after the laptop was recovered.

    Have you tried to connect various USB devices; Mouse USB, USB HDD, etc...?
    Your comments would be appreciated.

  • Satellite U500 - Code 52 after the installation of recovery

    Hello

    I tried to reinstall my U500. After installtion some devices work not (code 52 in Device Manager).

    It is related to driver signing. When I imagined "disable driver sign" in the F8 boot menu some of them work properly.
    I tried to change bcdedit to ignore driver signing with no luck.

    Please notify.

    Long ago, I had the same machine. I got it several times but I never noticed this problem. did you notice immediately after the recovery image installation or later, after connection to the installation of Internet and Windows updates?

  • Satellite 1800-814 does not start after the installation of the software

    Hello
    If I pass on my old Satellite S1800-814, it seems to start correctly: it shows the symbol of "Toshiba", then "Windows XP loading", then the screen goes completely blank, followed by a black screen showing the cursor that I am able to move. The hard drive continues to hum as usual for a few seconds, but then begins to repeat a series of clicking noises, somewhat like a disk that is stuck. The boot process is not still engaged.

    Here's the context: I installed my (old) version of Avid Xpress Pro editing software on my Satellite 1800-814. I managed to install a newer version, even if it does not function effectively, where my attempt to install an older version more closely adapted to the processing speed and the size of the RAM 1800-814. I got the usual warning at the end of the installation program of Avid saying that Windows can be affected if I let the installation ends in letting the computer on. But I pressed the option "continue anyway" (as I've done it before without negative effects). The computer off, but he came in as described above. Please tell me what I broke. Can I ever solve this?

    Thanks for your help.

    Hmm, check if the Tempro software is installed.
    If Yes, then you have two options; would it remove the system or if you want to use Tempro then you need to update this tool.

    The Tempro software is a tool of Toshiba which monitors the HARD disk and the operating system and send you a notice if a new update of driver/tool is available on the European driver Toshiba page.
    I deleted this tool because I don t need.

    I have always followed this suggestion; never change a running system you know :)

  • Satellite U200 - sound does not work after the installation of Win8.1

    Hello guys,.

    I have some old Satellite U200-165. I installed windows 8.1 Enterprise assessment successfully after that I changed the hard drive SSD, but the sound does not work. Windows showing that his work perfectly, but it does not come out.

    An advise please.

    Satellite U200 is a pretty old and not supported for Win8 or Win8.1 machine. I think that we have no report on this forum how this old piece of equipment works with Win8.

    If the sound card is properly installed, have you checked all the sound settings?
    I presume that the same problem is with a headset, right?

  • Satellite L670-11R - SD cards were not after the installation of recovery

    Hallo,

    After that I got a virus I couldn't find my SD cards in the workplace (I hope, be called 'place of work' in English').
    So I started the recovery of HARD drive and restore the system to the original terms.

    But now, I have the same problem:
    When I put an SD card in the slot, the dialog box in the lower right shows me, that the drivers have been installed, but I can't find my card. When I put the card SD and back, nothing happens... Only after reinstalling the card-slot-driver from the toshiba-homepage, I can see the dialog box by putting in the SD card. But even once only once and nothing else happens.

    So, I don't know if it's a hardware problem (the slot recognizes the card) or a driver problem (with exactly the same system that everything worked fine a year ago).
    Does anyone have an idea? If possible, please answer in German, if not, I would be very grateful for each answer.

    Timon

    Hello

    As far as I know the laptop L670-11R supports the Realtek card reader controller. I think you should try the Realtek Realtek driver page driver.

    Here you can find the latest version of the driver:
