Re: Satellite A660-149 - such display faded!

I've had my laptop a few days and I am so upset that I can't solve the problem I have on the display. I hope it's just my ignorance that prevents me to fix things and is not fault of the laptop!

Graphics and text appear terribly washed out, whether on the desktop or in the browser. Text in browsers is in fact generally so low that I can't read something often not. Windows 7 is a new operating system for me and I'm not sure what I should do to put my screen to life. I checked in the display settings, but the color depth seems to be at its maximum. What can I do? I couldn't live like this - please people, tell me that I can do something to fix the current situation!

It will be interesting to see it all and say if this is normal or not. It is not easy to discuss these visual problems.

For two weeks, I got Satellite A660-13 q and everything works perfectly.
If possible, make a screenshot, download somewhere and send us the link where we can see it.
By the way: perhaps you should contact your local agent and check if the same happen on another laptop A660, just to see if described problem occurs on your laptop only.

  • Satellite A660-149 - update the display driver

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A660-149 with a Nvida GT330M and Windows 7 64-bit driver.
    TEMPRO gives me updates to download 260,51 drivers from the toshiba site but it says model 3d only. Who doesn't have my portable 3d capabilities. When I go to the NVIDIA site, it says download the 260 drivers. I've also heard you need to install drivers of manufacturing is it true?

    The other problem is that I get an error display sometimes say "display driver stopped responding and recovered." The im driver uses is the 189.58.

    . Been using this version of the driver since I have my laptop on a few months ago.

    Thank you

    Bio Hi,

    As far as I know, that you can install the new display driver from Toshiba Web site 260 because 3D means the 3D on external monitor support and as far as I know it of possible with GT330 M graphics card.

    Just check the other threads here in the forum, everything you need to know is already written:

  • Satellite A660-149 - utility of Tosh has disappeared!

    Someone PL help me to trace the utility depending on whether I had until recently on my brand-new Satellite A660-149, but now he has gone (maybe through a fault of mine).

    It took the form of a rectangle that would hide at the edge of the screen and would (unfortunately, most of the time) get out whenever the cursor struck its contour. One of the 3 buttons caused a box where you can select one of the options that have been predefined for display based on ambient lighting, one of these options are defined by the user.

    I found this utility useful to quickly change the settings of the screen whenever I had to move my laptop.

    I hardly had time to look into what we called this utility and where he lived, before that I've lost without trace.
    A price to everyone who helps me rediscover it?

    Hello

    I think you speak on flash card.
    The support of flash card utility controls the FN keys.

    You should go to all programs-> Toshiba-> supported Flash memory card and need to reboot again.

    If this will not help, reinstall the VAP and Flash memory card Support utility.

    Is something I'm unsure: is my NVidia GeForce 3d video card?

  • Re: Satellite A660-149 screen freezes

    Hello world

    I just bought a new A660-149 Satellite with i5, 4 GB, and 500 GB HDD last week that does not work properly. Is when I'm on the internet or listening to music, the screen and the sound crashes completely. I need to turn off the PC all the time. I don't know why this is happening because I've not yet installed all the programs, I do not have games and I did a scan with antivirus on a case where. He said: no virus found so I wonder if anyone had similar problems before.

    Any advice would be great.

    Thank you very much.
    Michael

    Hello

    Maybe it s only a software problem try to retrieve the device (install the OS by using HARD disk recovery) and again test the functionality of the laptop

    If the laptop freezes again even by using a new OS installed, then you should try to update the display driver.

    PS: Problem of memory could lead to these symptoms of portable, so if anything would help, the RAM (memory) should be checked.

    Good luck

  • Satellite A660-149 - how to synchronize with my iPad?

    Hi all

    You just bought an iPad 2, but the Satellite A660 will let me sync to it. After that 90-minute in the apple store, we determined it must be the PC, because it would not also sync an iPad store, and my ipad syncs on their Macs.

    I did a complete reinstall of itunes, after deleting everything and have also downloaded the latest updates to the bios for laptop. Any help would be appreciated!

    I think you should put this question to the Apple support and not here in the Toshiba support forum.

    But I've got an iphone and a laptop series Satellite has and can synchronize the data on your laptop and iphone without going through all the questions
    I had some problems installing the most recent iTunes but it has nothing to do with the Toshiba laptop.
    I couldn't uninstall the old itunes due to registry problems in windows
    I cleaned the registry with ccleaner and once installed the itunes once more.
    Then I could follow the synchronization

  • Satellite A660 - need to display driver

    Hey,.

    the hard drive of my computer recently failed and I lost part of my drivers. Thus, for example, I lost the driver for the mouse (which was easily downloadable and fixed).

    But I also think that I lost the display driver, so now its running a "Non - PnP monitor generic on Standard VGA Graphics Adapter" (as in my laptop seems to work my screen like component completely separate from himself) of those which has a resolution of 1024 x 768, on a computer screen in 1366 x 768 (and it is non - 3D) while you can imagine its great not having a stretched screen.

    Also my keyboard shines no more, this wired on the same driver or do I need another? (this system was just patched up by TI guy)

    So... I was wondering, can I download and install the Toshiba display driver and make it work?
    If I download and install the driver display Toshiba it will fix these problems? and if he used / is not what is the next action plan?

    If you could answer these questions, it would be very appreciated by me, and if you need more information, feel free to ask on this thread.

    Thank you.

    > can I download and install the Toshiba display driver and make it work?
    Why not?

    See European driver of Toshiba available for this model of laptop graphics card drivers.

  • Satellite A660-149 illumination buttons will not work.

    Hello
    Until today, I had no problem with this great machine. But now, on random, the lighting buttons are simply not. I managed to make it to the light, and when I start the machine upward, they seem to work. However, when he enters the office, they are brilliant, but does does not (except for the volume buttons). I also noticed that I can't turn off my touch pad, which is a bit annoying.
    It is possible that I have to move these buttons somehow, but I don't know how...

    Please open Toshiba Assist and OPTIMIZE option, below HardwareSetup tool. Check if the settings button is enabled or disabled.

    In the worst case, you can reinstall VAP and everything should be OK again.

  • Satellite A660 - striped black plastics little four on each corner of the screen

    Hi all!

    I just bought a * new * Satellite A660-149 notebook online (eBay, UK seller), as the title says.

    All seemed well, package and everything. Sheet of clear plastic on the sides of the laptop (not on the screen although). I registered it through the Toshiba record Utillity. Yet, on the link: http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/support/jsp/globalEntitlement.jsp says that it is not registered.

    Today, I noticed that the four small black senior round plastic that cover the four screws at each corner of the screen are scratched or damaged a bit around the edges, as if someone had used a screwdriver to remove them. And they are stuck with a kind of glue.

    Shouldn't they be strong and clear? Is that normal, everyone noticed that? Because if this also applies when you buy the laptop directly from Toshiba, I dial it just with it.

    Thank you!

    Vlad
