Satellite A660 11 M monitor problem

Hi guys

I have a problem with my monitor, I work on the screen goes all black and he gets back with black tool bars to the bottom of the screen, then he'll be back the normal and the black disappears.

What is the cause of this player or Vega problem? It is not all the time but sometimes...

Thanks for your concern.

Hello

It could be related to the graphics driver, but also to the graphics chip.
You can check if a new update driver graphic card or the new facility could help solve this problem.
New installation of operating system could also allows to check if its driver or software related issue...

  • Satellite A660, SWITCH OFF COOLING PROBLEM message appears

    My Sat A660 1FH displays a message that says there is a cooling problem and I should pass away, but when I check the settings there is no problem. can anyone help please?

    Hi mikeswan,

    I have the Satellite A660 since October 2010 up to more than 4 months now and has never seen a such error message on my Satellite A660. Everything works fine, cooling system works normally and if not, no problem.

    Nothing comes from nothing, so I think that there really is a problem with your cooling system or high temperature.

    Your laptop should still be under warranty, because this new model of s. very good because I would contact the closest to what s service provider authorized as soon as possible before you get property damage due to a higher internal temperature. I think that professional people, make sure that there is no problem or get the correction of an error, please check your laptop. Maybe the fan needs to be replaced or else I put t really know.

    I can help you find an authorized service provider then follow this link:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > find an authorized service provider

    That s a list of all FSA with phone number and all the rest need you can get in touch with the guys.
    I think that it of the best idea and if there is a hardware problem, repair will cost nothing. :)

  • Satellite A660 - Windows 7 startup problem

    Hi, I have I think the biggest problem I have ever had. I have the Toshiba Satellite A660. I have Windows 7 ultimate 64-bit (just to know.) Computer laptop freezed so I pressed to shutdown (stop) to close.

    Then I tried to start it but I saw only "starting Windows" for more than an hour... When I tried to use the repair disk I saw the Green loading bar only (such as loading windows XP) but nothing happened again. So I tried to use the installation disc, but I get a "windows start" and nothing happened, even with a USB tip.

    Could someone help me?
    Thanks for all the posts.

    I understand that your computer was working and running W7 64 bit.
    You can or you looked in the BIOS? I don't know what you can view/change but is the HDD displayed and if memory is reported?
    If you use the drive of W7 or reinstall to start the computer drive can you get to the screen install Windows and select "repair your computer". If you do not see this screen, you will need to make sure that the DVD or USB is the first boot device.

    Return to this stage for more ideas or google for something like "windows command prompt repair 7.

  • Re: Satellite A200-1IZ - external monitor problem

    Hello
    I recently bought an IPS monitor for photo editing. I configured the monitor in several ways, such as two monitors or monitors extended, but the image on the external monitor has a few little flicker and the image is not very pleasing to the eyes, a feeling like little refreshment on old monitor, very disturbing for the eyes.
    I plugged the monitor into another laptop and the image is much better.

    What could be the problem? I have Windows 7 32 bit and Ati Mobility Radeon HD 2600 adapter with the latest drivers.

    We do not know what monitor you have exactly, but what is the native screen resolution and what resolution is set to the external monitor when you use it with your laptop?

  • Satellite A660-1DW - screen graphic problem becomes faints

    Hi guys, this is the first time m write on any shape... !!

    Basically, I bought toshiba A660-1DW from argos 4 months after using it for 4 months VGA (display graphic problem becomes faints and a little colored lines appear on the screen)

    .. as I had the warranty for the laptop, I went to argos, told them the problem rather than send it back for repair they just have me service number customer toshiba...

    returned home rang Toshiba, they gave me a few REF a bit and asked me of the drop to the argos... the next day went to argos they accepted and send it to toshiba for repair... after 3 weeks they have me called yesterday picked up the phone after using the laptop for 5 minutes, same problem was there...

    then I took it back to argos they still accepted and send it for repair, but they also said if the problem 3rd time I'll have to take the same branch of argos from where I bought the laptop... .fondamentalement I bought in HOUNSLOW and I live in slough.

    the conclusion that I am crazy about her, here it is... TOSHIBA AND ARGOS these people got the WORST service you will ever find anywhere on the other hand,

    THESE PEOPLE ARE MUCH MORE BETTER THEN TOSHIBA because IF THE CUSTOMER IS NOT happy with the product they will replace or Exchange streight away...!

    Hello

    I had a problem with my laptop and the ASP has replaced everything for free because the guarantee was valid.
    The guys are really helpful and friendly, so I did a very good experience with the Toshiba service and notebooks of other manufacturers can also be defective

    Of course, there might be some difference between the different cases, but I can't say that the service is not ok

  • Satellite A100 - external LCD monitor problems

    I love the world of electronics.
    If you have multiple components built by different people, the problem is always the fault of other manufactuers.

    I have an A100 and can't seem to find out what happens on the screen, resolution and laptop.
    I had this same problem when I first buy the monitor and managed to solve... I worked on it for a few hours without a bit of luck.

    The display is an ACER - AL2216W

    First, the good native expressed of the monitor is not in the display settings. It has been, but now when I restarted it, it seems to return the monitor to a generic configuration.

    Now when I close the laptop the monitor turns off and shows that an entry not supported message.

    I have "drivers" but I think those are XP versions for the monitor and there are none that are available on the ACER site. In the box of this monitor said that it is COMPATIBLE VISTA... whatever that means.

    I don't know there is more questions about my settings and situations before people can have no idea of what happens, so ask away!

    Help someone?

    It might be better to take the laptop to the technician and the technician could check this port. I mean these ports are set on the mobo and it is perhaps necessary to weld a s part.

  • Re: Satellite A660-1EK - FN keys problem

    Hello
    I don't know how I did that... but yesterday my mobile function buttons worked, but now I press fn + f6 or fn + f6, it must change in light of the screen, but there is nothing.
    There is not a problem with the fn key because when I press keys fn + 3 or by changing its fn + 4.

    How can I solve my problem?

    Since when is FN + F4 or FN + 3 for the sound?
    As far as I know it's for the standby and hibernation.

    Try also first roll back OS to an earlier time using System Restore tool. Make back two or three days.

  • Satellite A660 - fan and temperature problem

    Probably after that Bios Update to 2.3 increased fan is efficient and temperatures grew deadly
    So please help!

    I can't work on my laptop and the children cannot play in games (even simpler)
    regards and sorry for my English

    I imagine that this behavior is the result of the update of the BIOS.
    Can you please tell us what was the reason for the update of the BIOS? Sorry to ask this, but I always say that there is no reason to change anything, if there is not a serious problem.
    What to do now?

    In general, you can't do much, but what you can try is to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider, explain the situation and ask if there is a possibility for BIOS downgrade.
    I guess that they have access to the database of Toshiba and can get the older version of BIOS for you.

  • Satellite A660 - message: WARNING: a problem with the cooling system

    My laptop recenly started giving the error "Warning: a problem with the cooling system has been detected." Please turn off computer immediately and return it for service"- Yes the fan had stopped working and touchpad area was hot.

    So I take it on the type of service (toshiba) and must answer for fan, Mo, HARD drive, he said. Is this possible? -J' I have extended warranty, but is ' t it much? not to mention that it takes a month to get things down.

    He also mentioned that I could use the machine with a cooling pad until then if I wish.

    Any feed back?

    > Yes the fan had stopped working and touchpad area was hot.

    In this case, there is really a hardware problem.
    But I m wondering why he should replace the HARD drive and the motherboard
    Perhaps only the cooling module began at malfunction of course this is just a speculation
    If the technician has checked the material, then they need to know what parts are not OK.
    So don t think you have no choice.

    But the guarantee is valid for all is free

  • Satellite A660 - cooling fan is too slow

    Hello

    I own TOSHIBA Satellite A660 - 10 X
    the problem is that fan will slow (when the laptop starts its goes much faster that slowing it down). Problem is that the laptop is overheating and that it stops without any warning. I'm working on it and must be reliable.

    I tried the power management but there are only "optimized batery' or 'up', but at least it won't max for sure.

    Is it possible to check the speed of the fan? I tried several aplications to see fan speed but they do not work.

    And I never found fan in BIOS.

    You use applications that require a lot of graphics performance?
    S your laptop sitting on the desk when you work with it.

    Do not forget that all the vents, especially downstairs are not blocked somehow.

  • Satellite A660/07U - problem install the nVidia for Win 7 64 bit driver

    A660/07U Windows 7 64 bit

    At first, I need to install this driver because apparently it will solve a problem with the current driver that is causing the computer freezes when booting with an external monitor as main display.

    I downloaded the Setup file of driver from the Toshiba web site and it's extraction ok but when I run the program it just then immediately quits without installing drivers.

    The Device Manager in windows seems not help either, because when I point to the extracted files it tells me that I already have the drivers, even if my current version of the driver is a lower number than the one downloaded.

    Restart made no difference.

    Any ideas/suggestions?

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    It is a series of laptop Toshiba to THE.
    Where did you download the driver?

    Usually, you must choose the driver from this page:

    I recommend you to download and try to install it once more

  • Satellite A660 - boot problems USB after BIOS update

    Hello

    I own a Toshiba Satellite A660 and have recently updated the BIOS with the latest version (1.80). Since then, the laptop freezes on the splash screen (the one with the Toshiba logo) whenever a USB flash memory is attached.
    It works without the memory flash connected and if I connect it after I enter the starting or the BIOS Setup menu. I can even start her like that.
    As far as I'm concerned, this is a serious regression. Is there a way I can downgrade to the version of the BIOS, or any other way to solve this problem? I rely heavily on external USB drives.

    Kind regards
    Claudiu.

    Claudiu salvation,

    That is really interesting, I have to say so I tested on my new Satellite A660 and Transcend 4 GB USB Stick. Well, I also installed 1.80 BIOS but I can t view this problem HARD drive is set as first boot device and all the other BIOS settings are default. The Toshiba screen and Windows computer starts as usual.
    No problem at all!

    Have you tested different USB devices?

    In General, it is not possible to downgrade BIOS. It is possible to an authorized service because Toshiba on page you can download the latest version only but I doubt it s a bug in the new version of BIOS because it works on my A660.

  • Satellite A660 - 1 HL-problems with the graphics card

    Hello!

    This is my first thread so I apologize if I am doing something wrong and for my bad English. :)

    Just bought a Toshiba Satellite A660 - 1 hl with two adapters, integrated and a GeForce GT 330 M. The integrated works well, but when I go to the dedicated I encounter problems. The non-adjustable resolution in optimal mode and windows in the operating system (windows 7) delays when moving. I can't get info on the map in all kinds of temperature programs or dxdiag and such others.

    I tried to install the drivers from nvidia, Toshiba and windows update with no improvement. I can't run Windows expreince index because I get an error message or of any average games do I encounter error messages there as well. I begin to doubt that the drivers installed even.

    I hope you guys can help out me :)

    It comes to getting the error messages:

    You should test the RAM (memory) for problems using the Test of memory of Microsoft or the www.memtest.org (bootable CD).

    To confirm that this is a hardware problem, you must save your documents and run recovery.

    If the problem still occur on a new image, then the laptop should go to an ASP (Toshiba Service Center) for repairs (possibly a motherboard replacement).
