Really random issues with Satellite C660D-102

Hi, I've had this laptop for about a month now, and everything was fine until a few days ago, when a few strange things started to happen.

Firstly, at random times that it doesn't let me scroll using the touchpad and secondly it wont let me anything by clicking on the task bar or tabs in my browser and sometimes nothing on the screen is clickable at all. Another problem, it's just random, I'll be striking and flashes the right-click options to the top, and if I press left click, it does not, right-click options keep showing.

It all started at the same time, so I guess they are related. The only solution is if I use the Task Manager to stop the Explorer, then run it again and then it works again for a while but it's just unpredictable when it will happen, but happens about 60% of the time I use the laptop. It gets really frustrating now that I have a lot of work time and slows me down having to run the Manager of tasks all the time.

Please can someone shed some light on what they think may be the cause and how can I solve it. Thanks :)

Hello

have you installed programs recently that can affect a laptop normal functioning? run antivirus software to check the virus if you have. Restore factory settings, then.

  • Re: Satellite C660D-102 - how to copy Windows on DVD?

    Hello people. I bought a new Toshiba Satellite C660D-102.

    The seller told me to copy Windows on DVD soon to open the laptop. Don't know where to take the Windows installation files. You have encountered this problem? How can I solve this problem.

    Hey,.

    I think that the seller meant to create the Toshiba recovery disc that contains a picture of the factory settings. In the case where you can start t more Windows or the drive HARD must be replaced, you can use this disk to restore Windows with all the drivers and tools. With other words, you get factory settings back, the same settings as you bought the laptop so it of very useful and easy.

    You can create this disk if you start creative media recovery Toshiba which is preinstalled on your computer. According to the installation, you need certain blank DVD media. I recommend high-quality mediums, type: DVD-R from Verbatim or TDK. They work well and others here can recommend them also.

    Last but not least, you should also read your user manual. It contains interesting information on this subject and other interesting things. It s also preinstalled on your laptop. :)

    But it s really great, the seller gave you an indication in this regard. If you check the other forum discussions you will read a lot others that they forget to create this disc and are not able to restore the factory settings if Windows could not start.

  • Satellite C660D-102 - no way to activate WLAN

    Hello
    I had the laptop Satellite C660D-102 renovated, with Windows 7 64 bit. I can't find how to activate the WLAN. FN + F8 did not. In the BIOS no option to disable or enable WLAN, I even found it in the Device Manager, it shows just the LAN card and none of the yellow question marks. Anyone have any ideas?

    P.S. Sorry for my English, iam still learning English language :)

    See you soon!

    According to the specifications of the laptop your C660D-102 has WIFI Realtek 802.11(b/g/n card) 13ch-RTL8188CE and which should be listed in Device Manager.
    What is your laptop pre-installed with original Toshiba (WIN7 64-BIT HOME PREMIUM) recovery image?

  • Satellite C660D-102 blocks when past to the screen saver

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite C660D-102 of Windows 7 OS. Basically, if my computer is left unattended, and goes to the screen saver, it freezes and has to be restarted by holding down the power button. If I'm listening to the music, makes a loud noise when it does this until it is turned off.

    Anyone has any ideas of what could be the cause?
    Thanks, Matt

    + The message was edited: changed name of the laptop.

    Hi Matt

    To be honest, this laptop T series is unclear to me. What is the correct model name or model number?
    Are you using the original pre-installed OS?
    Have you noticed this problem since the day where we?
    Do you use the standard Windows screensaver?
    Did you install additional software that is running in the background?

    Sorry for these questions but it is not easy to give you simple answer and specifies what may be the problem.

  • With Satellite C660D-181 performance issues

    Hello

    Hoping someone can help me.
    I've had the above machine now for about 2 months and it is so incredibly slow. It has 6 GB of ram and a processor double heart and was bought to replace a child of 4 years another laptop.

    Constantly, it crashes when loading pages. Farmville is the worst offender, however it happens with all pages.
    I'm at a loss as to why complete what should be a very capable machine is unable to deal with the most basic of tasks that an old Dell has no problems with at all.

    I searched the forums and have heard of software conflicts possible, but all I have loaded is software AVG.

    If someone could please point me in the right direction, now I seriously think contact Toshiba for my money, this machine is so bad.

    Hello

    I know what you mean, I think I can help you
    I had a similar problem with the new laptop, the fact is that several applications running in the background and this could slow down the performance. The CPU and RAM can be overloaded. In your case, I recommend disabling of certain processes is not necessary.

    But first download and install the CCleaner. It is a free software that allows you to clean the registry and remove the garbage system.

    Then start the msconfig and switch to the Startup tab.
    You will find all the processes that are loaded at startup, when windows starts.

    Remove the mark to disable the process.
    If you n t know exactly what is controlled by the process, don't disable it.

  • Major issues with Satellite S70 - t wireless has

    Hello

    I received a Satellite - S70t 31/10 and then had some problems wireless. From the start up my computer and began its activities on the internet, I suddenly noticed the sudden slow but also many problems such as the loss of packets and ping (which I had never experienced before) high.

    After some tests, I came to the conclusion that it is either something wrong with the wireless adapter, or on the other hand is not compatible with my router. I had questions everytime I open the laptop and connect to the internet, where my reasoning.

    I've updated the drivers for the wireless adapter, but it did not help.
    I am running a router Netcomm NB9wmaxxn.

    I hope that it will be able to be resolved quickly.
    Thank you.

    In my opinion you issue needs further investigation.
    It isn't quite clear, if the Wlan problem is related to the network card wireless Wlan driver, Wlan router or maybe the combination of the Wlan router and module Wlan.

    In my opinion, you should check if the same thing happens to connect the phone to another access point.
    You should check the laptop with or without the power adapter connected.
    Energy savings can affect the performance of Wlan.

    You should check if the problem could be related to the intensity of the signal.
    You should test the connection network wifi secure Wla also open Wifi (unsecured).

    Check also different standards of WLan 802.11 A B G N
    Of course, this test depends on the Wlan module. In the case of the wifi card does not support the 802. 11A, you will not be able to verify this.

  • Various issues with Satellite M40 225

    Hello

    I am having some problems with my laptop Satellite M40-225. -Here's...

    First of all when booting I get a bad / lack error OSB, in order for me to get to the start I must incline Press esc, go into the bios then get out of the bios tilt the laptop again and it will start then.

    Also I sometimes get errors BOSD, sometimes he mentions ati2, but above all it says physical memory.

    I have flashed the bios to try to get rid of the first error but no luck.
    Nothing new has been installed on the laptop, I even reloaded windows and tried with a spare hard drive, but nothing seems to work!

    Please help, I know that probably need something alternative, but I don't want to start buying things for her I have I don't know what's going to fix it.

    Thank you

    Susie

    Hello

    AFAIK usually Missing/Bad OSB logo error message is displayed if the error was detected in the BIOS or CMOS ROM module

    But according to the BSOD with physical memory error error, I guess that your modules of memory are not correct and that this must be the main reason for you questions.

    Of course I could be wrong also, and perhaps the whole issue is related to the faulty motherboard but in the first step, you should check your modules of memory installed.

    Hope you will get rid of these questions after a replacement memory.
    I keep fingers crossed ;)

    Good luck

  • Several media related issues with satellite A210-171

    I have an Equuim A210-171 which has a S-Video socket and a display ATI card I hooked up to my TV but I can't get a picture. I have implemented in the ATI Control Panel and have tried to connect before you turn on the TV, but still, this has no effect.

    Also, I tried to burn a TV show I recorded using Media Center (also used for the recording of the program). I have 2 problems...

    1. the burning process takes forever to fill
    2. the final result does not appear properly when played back on a DVD player. The menu appears and works fine, but when you start the program there is only what I can describe as diagonal lines appear on the screen. The sound seems fine

    I'm doing something wrong here or is this a known problem

    Concerning

    Hello

    To get the TV picture please do not follow:

    -Start your laptop and the TV turns
    -Connect your laptop with TV using the S-video cable
    -turn on the S-video TV port
    -use the FN + F5 key combination and go to the TV output setting

    I did probably 100 times with different TVs and it worked every time. Many people always make the same mistake the S-video port on television is not properly active and because of that don't here are either no picture or the picture is black and white.

    On the creation of DVD I can't say a lot right now, but I can say with certainty that I designed using Media Center DVD engraving option. I recorded some old VHS movies as mpg files and created DVDs with no problems. I don't really know what you're doing wrong.

    If you mpeg files also try to use another application to create DVDs. try with Nero. It is very powerful and I hope you do this successfully.

  • Connectivity issues with Satellite L30-101 wireless

    I live in a room where the wireless NET is low.

    The landlord lives just next door and it has wireless internet access, I pay for it as well.

    I have a toshiba satellite laptop L30-101. my room is on the first floor, if I get out of my room in the hallway, the net improves.
    If I go down this is the best.
    I tried to speak with the owner to put the modem near the window or connect an antenna in the modem, but there is no change.
    Here's my question: How can I get a net better from my room?
    What can I buy for my computer? I have a type II card slot. What type of antenna, cables or cards can I buy?

    Hey Bela

    Why don't you talk with your local dealer where you live. They can give you enough useful information how to manage this problem. If you wish, you can test connectivity with the latest PCMCIA WLAN cards. If there is no success you can send it back after a few days.

  • WLAN issues with Satellite Pro C50-A-1EL, Win8 64bits

    Hello

    I noticed a strange problem with this laptop WLAN card: it does not connect to the many points of commercial access (Netgear, Hamlet). OK the connection from a certain brands, (zyxel) but not TSF to others.

    I've already updated WLAN driver on Toshiba website, but nothing: often, it disconnects and then reconnects (maybe)

    I already changed my wifi channel by selecting the firmware the best channel available, update to access point but nothing: with some brands the C50 wlan is ok, with the other not.

    You have any ideas?

    Good bye

    > with some brands the C50 wlan is ok, with the other not.
    It seems that the aircraft had WB335 WLan Atheros 802.11bgn card.
    I think it depends on the standard WLan that is selected and used by the Access Point.
    As mentioned above, the WLan card supports the standard 802.11 b, G or N.

    I think you should check what WLan standard is used by the WLan router.

    802 11 B and G operation to 2, 4 GHz,
    802.11 N works 2, 4 GHz and 5 GHz, but only if 802.11 standard would be supported by the wireless network adapter. In your case, it s not picked up and therefore the standard 802.11 N would operate at 2.4 Ghz (20 MHz bandwidth).

    You can change the WLan standard in the properties of the WLan module.
    -> WLan card device manager-> properties-> Advanced tab
    Here you will find the various options.

    Also in the last tab power management, you must deselect the option which disables WiFi in order to save energy. So make sure that is not marked.

    Last but not least attention to the parameters of encryption like WEP, WPA (TKIP, AES, I, II).
    Different encryption settings can affect connectivity.

  • Re: Don't start with Satellite C660D - 1C7

    Hello

    I was installing Windows 7 via the toshiba Recovery Wizard, but during the installation, the laptop freezes and I need to.

    When I start it up again, it shows ups two error messages:
    (1) PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of
    (2) reboot and select proper boot device

    Then I can't go to the Recovery Wizard (F8), it does seem that these messages. I disabled the lan on the bios. The first message disappears, but the second is still there. The hard drive is recognized by the bios and the bootsequence is ok.

    What I did:
    (1) reset the bios to its default value
    (2) try to install with a win xp cd, but it hangs after some time and gives me a blue screen.

    What can I do else? I appreciate your help. Thank you.

    If you want to have the factory settings once again, you must install recovery image using the recovery disk.
    Have you created this disk?

  • Upgrade memory issues with Satellite P200 - 10 c

    I have upgraded to 4 GB as from Toshiba Web site says it supports 4GB. In the bios, I only see 3070 MB and Windows 7 64 - bit says (3.00 GB RAM) 4.00 GB RAM usable.

    Why?
    In Task manager is also said 3070MB of memory total.

    Hello

    4 GB of RAM should be possible.

    http://Ark.Intel.com/products/chipsets/22817

    I recommend to check the advanced startup options:
    1. Click Start, in the search bar type msconfig and press to enter.
    2. System Configuration window appears on the screen.
    3. click on the tab named "boot".
    4. click on "Advanced Options" and uncheck the box 'memory Maximum.
