Re: Satellite A665-3DV: reformatting + Drivers

Hi, I just got my new laptop Satellite A665-3DV of Frys. I also bought an upgrade to Windows 7 Ultimate to format and install windows again. I do that because that usually computers laptops that are shipped are filled with things I don't not needed/wanted, causing a significant slowdown on my machine. However, after formatting and installing Windows 7 Ultimate, I entered a few driver problems. I want to know what drivers I need so I can download and install now.

If someone is good enough to help me, it would be very grateful. Thank you.

Hello

I agree with you. On the original recovery image pre-installed, there are a lot of things that we as a user of portable computers do not need, but there is no reason for to update or clean OS install.

You can remove all the unnecessary stuff and configure the boot option. I do this every time after installation, new recovery image. You can do the same thing.
Note please. Recovery image contains all necessary things for the perfect configured hardware. This additional applications can be deleted.

In any way, if you want to install an update that's OK. I put t know issue drivers who you are writing about, but I can imagine there are drivers like BT or VAP to be removed before the installation of the update starts.

Remove all components, install update and install again the missing things. All what you need you can find on the download page of Toshiba under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads.

    Hello!

    Please can you help me find the drivers for Windows XP for Satellite A665 64_bit_SP2. I just installed this windows XP 64_bit_SP2 due to an unsatisfactory performance of Windows 7 64, however the drivers I could not found.
    I'll wait for all the answers!
    Thank you!

    Hi Alex

    Huh.. What to say now. Why do these stupid mistakes?
    Please don t get me wrong, but to install some OS and then try to find the drivers is for me is really crazy.

    For me is logical step to check the OS support in a first time, collect drivers and then install OS including all the necessary drivers. I just hope that you created the recovery DVDs until you have installed Windows XP Home edition.
    Where you have looked for drivers of Windows XP Home edition?

    If you see the Toshiba support page, you will see that your laptop model is not supported for WXP then where you want to find the drivers for Windows XP Home edition now? Material used in your Satellite is based on the latest technology and standards, so manufacturers don t support t for old Windows XP Home edition.

    In any case, we can try to find some of them. What A665 do you have exactly? PSAW3E or PSAW9E?

  • USB drive not readable on the Satellite A665-13W

    Hello

    I have the following problem. I have Kingston DataTraveler HyperX 64 GB (USB 3.0) by car and it is perfectly readable on other PCs without worrying if I connect it to the USB 3.0 or USB 2.0 ports.

    The device is detected in Windows 7 64-bit on Toshiba Satellite A665-13W and I see it in Device Manager. He invites me to open the disk E: (NTFS volume), but it looks empty when I open it in Explorer Windows with a certain delay when Explorer seems to scan drive.

    I see some errors in the event viewer such as:
    Event ID 11: driver has detected an error in the controller on \Device\Harddisk1\DR2

    But when I connect for example Patriot 8 GB USB drive it works without problem. When I boot Windows 7 in safe mode, the Kingston DataTraveler HyperX 64 GB drive is connected, and I can read it.

    What should I do to make it readable without going into safe mode?

    I have the latest BIOS 2.30, I tried to enable/disable USB legacy support, I tried the fast/normal startup, I tried to install the latest Intel Chipset drivers, I tried all USB ports, including one that can be used as eSATA port, but without success. I also uninstalled the recognized device driver and let Windows detect the device again and reinstall the driver, but also without success. I also disabled power management option to disable device, without success.

    When I start in normal mode, I can't read NTFS volume. When I boot in safe mode I can read. The USB works on other PC in normal mode. Old USB 2.0 USB key works in normal mode. Strange. It must be a firmware problem or driver in my opinion. If it is a hardware problem or device the device would not work in safe mode!

    Are USB 3.0 64 GB of storage devices that are compatible with Toshiba laptops with USB 2.0 ports?

    There could be a problem of compatibility between the USB controller and the USB key.
    This compatibility questions aren't unusual.

    But I m wondering if you could try to fix this in the other direction:
    First check to see if the USB flash memory stick would appear in disk management

    Panel-> management-> disk management computer

    Here you will see all the partitions on the HARD disk and the USB connected.
    Check if you can format the USB key once more.

    If the USB does not appear here, try this method:
    Start the console by typing CMD
    Then type the command: diskpart and press enter
    Now, type command: automount enable and press enter

    Now, close all windows and restart the laptop.

  • Satellite A665 - 13W WIFI slow when activated Bluetooth

    I have hit a problem with WIFI performance and need help to find the solution.

    I have Satellite A665-13W with wireless Broadcom 802.11n network adapter and use the latest BIOS and drivers (for Broadcom is version 5.60.48.35). The laptop connects to my router and can reach network high speed, but then long time ago when there is no flow of data over network connections. These shortcomings last several seconds and occure probably 3 times per minute. This makes services like Skype unusable because for a while, I have good network connection, allowing you to make a video call even but quality then connection drops less than 1 Mbps (in fact hold) so even audio is not working and call either disconnects or connection back to full speed for about 10 seconds until what the quality decreases again.

    I tried different routers (802. 11 g, and 802.11n) and the problem persists. I tried to measure the performance of data transfer on LAN and found that the problem is not only related to my internet connection. I have tried other laptops and their connection works fine, so the problem lies in the Satellite A665-13W and its wireless adapter. In the end, I found that the problem is related to activated Bluetooth which is necessary for the connection of a wireless mouse.

    If bluetooth is disabled the WIFI performance is good and there is no delay in the transfer of data.
    If bluetooth is enabled (but no bluetooth device is connected or prominent) WIFI performance is severely degraded. Performance degradation is some expected when Bluetooth is used, but what is not acceptable, it is that no data shall not be transferred for a period of several seconds and even in the case where no bluetooth device is actually connected.

    My other laptop (Asus, Lenovo) do not have such a problem and can transfer data via WIFI streaming even if the Bluetooth mouse is connected to them and used. So it's clear the Toshiba laptop to malfunction.

    I tried to deactivate the energy saving network adapter wireless, but with no impact on performance.

    Is there a newer driver that can solve the problem? I can't solve the problem of some network card settings? Network card can be replaced to solve the problem (for laptop is under warranty)?

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Best regards
    Jakub

    Hello

    > Is there a newer driver that can solve the problem?
    Well, I can't say with certainty if the driver update should solve your problem, but I think that it s worth a try. You should try to update the driver WLAN and Bluetooth. You can find updates on the following pages:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/Bluetooth/
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/

    Also define the power WLAN mode for each profile of saving power for maximum performance which is not power save.

    Using the version preinstalled Windows from Toshiba or your own installation? If you use your own test of Windows with factory settings please. Just to make sure that it s not to deliver any software.

    Not least have last but you installed a software/driver for this Bluetooth mouse?

  • WIFI problem, Toshiba Satellite A665 internet connection. Lately when I try to connect to the internet, for the first minute or so it says "no internet connection".

    Hi all

    I had problems with my Toshiba Satellite A665 to internet connection. Lately when I try to connect to the internet, for the first minute or so it says 'No internet connection' (or something similar). Basically, he has the yellow warning triangle. Sometimes I can open the browser and search normally, but other times - and this happens more often it won't let me use my browser. When I have not fix the problem, he said that the DNS server is not responding. The problem is this same error happens all. unique. time. and the other computers in the House connect to the internet just fine. I called TWC and what I get on their part, it is "there no reported outages in your area. Useful, right? Tends to be gnawed by the use of Netflix and Hulu Plus, but this has never kept internet bandwidth to work in the past. What is going on? I'm so tired of having to go all the way down the stairs to reset the router every hour (on a good day) to get the computer to connect to the internet.
    I contacted Toshiba and they say that all the drivers on your computer are up to date and nothing is broken. I have also not downloaded or installed anything on my computer.

    If the reset of the router fixes the problem you should probably watch that as the culprit. Check the software/firmware for the router and see if you can borrow to someone router to test.

    I hope this helps.

    Hi, whenever my satellite A665-S5170 goes to sleep or when I start it up to the top of my screen resolution is very low and the only thing that solves it is to recalibrate the screen in color management settings.

    Does anyone else have this problem?

    Do you use pre-installed OS original you got with your laptop?

  • What can I do to make the Satellite A665-S6086 run with the new memory?

    I was able to update the BIOS for my Satellite A665-S6086 by updating 2.30 on CD burning. I have Windows 7 64 bit. I needed to update the BIOS, because I upgraded my RAM/memory of 2 GB (4 GB total) two cards two cards of 4 GB (8 GB total).

    My question now is when I start my computer with the new RAM/memory (two cards that are KTT-S3BS / 4G Kingston DDR3 1333 MHZ SODIMM SGL RANK), it freezes on the screen from Windows startup. Then when I hold the power button to shut it down and restart it, it wants to start using Windows repair but then crashes again. When I put in the memory of the old man and he start up, it starts the Windows repair and runs normally.

    What can I do to make my computer run with the new memory?

    I thank very you much in advance!

    What you can do?
    Buy an another RAM modules that are fully compatible with the laptop.
    It seems that you want to use the RAM modules which are not totally compatible and therefore the system hangs.

    By the way: the CPU that is used in this notebook runs the DDR3-800 and DDR3-1066
    RAM modules.

    I would not recommend to use the modules of DDR3-1333 but PA3677U-1M4G 4 GB DDR3-1066
