• On my Satellite A660 TV tuner does not work

  Hello

  I bought a Toshiba Satellite A660-07 one a few months ago and then reinstalled Windows 7 32-bit system in order to have more than a few partitions. But I had not deleted the hidden partition the system just in case I need to restore factory settings.

  Now I have moved to a remote area and need a TV but only to discover that the tuner did not work. It is detected correctly under sound devices and games in the Device Manager. However, when I use windows media center to scan channels. The WMC just says the software has encountered a serious error and try again.

  Then I tried to use Blaze DTV, which is also a very popular DTV software. Successfully, it recognizes the Tuner but will not scan either.

  I did some research and used the advocatus of configuration of the tuner TV in Windows 7. The warning message is that "the tuner is not properly configured to be used in Windows Media Center". And the details show that the tuner is plugged but not active for the WMC.

  But how do I then activate the tuner for WMC?

  Really hope that someone can help as I am now panic in a small town remote in New Testament.

  Thank you!

  I see a big problem here. If you have installed your own version of Windows then you will not be able to start the installation of image factory more.
  Due to this fact Toshiba strongly recommends the creation of recovery DVDs. It is described in s operating manuals.

  In any case, one question at first: you've found the right 32-bit driver TV tuner? TV tuner is installed correctly?

• Re: TV tuner on the new Satellite A660

  Hello

  I wandered just what the A660 model got a hybrid tv tuner? Because on the press release, he said he has a hybrid tv tuner. Thank you

  Each new Toshiba laptop model is offered with several different hardware configurations.
  Important thing is that all these models vary depending on the country, and in the not, we can see that all models will not be available in all countries, so I don't think that anyone here can give you a definitive answer.

  When the laptop will be available in your country, visit Toshiba support page and check which models will be available in your country.
  On PC magazine, I read, I found very interesting information related to this model of laptop. It will be the first laptop with 3D technology (graphics card, 60 Hz LCD and 3D glasses).
  Of course not all of them, but some models of Satellite A660.

  Good bye

• BT does not work on Satellite A660-13D

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite A660-13D, and since a few days, Bluetooth does not work.
  In device manager it tells me everything is executed, but BT does not open.
  Can someone help me with this?

  Message was edited: assignment has been translated

  Hello

  It is not easy to say what the problem is here. What you need to do is to activate the BT module correctly and software BT must start properly.
  Are you using the original operating system that you got with your laptop satellite? BT Stack (software) is installed on your machine?

  Hello

  Have you noticed the same behavior with pre-installed Windows 7 Home Premium at Toshiba?

  I think it s a driver or software issue, so it would be interesting to know if everything worked with original settings or not.

  Have you installed most recent display of the official website of Toshiba driver?

• Satellite A660 - 11 M - drive HARD recovery is not possible

  Hello.

  I bought the satellite A660 - 11 M two months ago. A week before, he started to cause a problem that when turned on, boot HARD drive is not possible in the first place and boot priority option page is shown. Only after that I have reset a start command, it started.

  To resolve this issue for good, I decided to format the HARD drive using the HDD recovery procedure. Unfortunately, I had to cancel this procedure after 2 minutes, and the start-up is not possible at all since then. He continues to display the message "Boot failure" etc. and staging to the BIOS screen. So, I can not access the recovery procedure even if I keep the F8 key. I am afraid that a recovery on the HARD drive partition can have been damaged due to the forced cancellation.

  I have not created a DVD of my own laptop recovery, and the only option seems to buy one from Toshiba (https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx). Before you order a recovery disc, I would ask if my problem can be solved using the disc. Anyone who has experience with the recovery disc could advise me? Another question is to know if a standard warranty let me send to Toshiba ASP? Thank you for reading.

  Hello

  > Another question is to know if a standard warranty let me send to Toshiba ASP?
  Warranty only covers hardware issues.

  Question you seems to be related to a software problem.
  Therefore, I doubt that installation of the OS would be covered by the warranty.
  You should order the recovery disk and must attempt to define the notebook back to factory settings.
  Then you should check the features of the laptop.

  Good luck

• Satellite A660: After upgrade to Win 8.1 BSOD is displayed using the keyboard

  Dynabook i7 3D laptop A660.

  OK; so I updated my i7 3D Dynabook to form 8.1 Windows (x 64) Windows 7 (x 64), and now the laptop restarts everytime I start to touch the keyboard.

  Other wise works perfectly.

  It took me two hundred hours to understand that I was typing on web sites usually when this re-boot occurs. And I could not remember how or why the computer restarted.

  When I press the numeric keypad 'more' sign, I get the BSoD immediately. But there are a few presses of the numbers on the keyboard so he can do the same thing.

  I.E.
  If I press 1, 2, 3, its ok.
  But
  If I press 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, the laptop gets a BSoD and restarts.

  I also installed automatic software (mouse) for a Microsoft mouse, that I was going to use. and I deleted in the "System Properties" after the problem has arisen; but there is no change.

  Whenever I tap on the number pad (especially the plus sign), the PS stops with a blue screen of death BSoD.

  Any ideas?

  Hi Roger,
  My knowledge the 8.1 Windows isn't supported by Satellite A660 because there is no driver Windows 8.1 special to this series of portable, but even if these drivers have not been released, is not a big problem to install and run the Windows 8.1 on this unit.

  I m wondering how you installed the 8.1 to win on this laptop?
  You upgrade Windows 7 to 8.1 Win or were you running a fresh install of Win 8.1?

  Here's a nice page of Microsoft providing some FAQ about update for Windows 8.1
  [Windows 8.1 update: FAQ | http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/upgrade-to-windows-8]

  In case you have done an UPGRADE to 8.1 Win, you can use Windows 8.1 Upgrade Assistant to check if your programs and devices are compatible with Windows 8.1.

  I would be also interesting to know if the same BSOD would appear if external keyboard would be connected to the laptop.
  When using the external keyboard would cause NOT of BSOD, I guess internal keyboard is faulty and could be the troublemaker.

• Satellite A660 - Win 8.1 power settings option not available

  Hello

  I upgraded my Toshiba (A660) to 8.1 64 x. (clean install)

  All if works well except idle protected function, which seem to have disappeared of power options.
  In my view, that a driver is required. (I have installed a single Toshiba driver)

  They don't seem to have VAP more.

  Can someone tell me what is the driver I need to install for this problem?

  Thank you.

  > All works well except idle protected function, which seem to have disappeared of power options.
  What exactly is the function of inactive variation? Display backlight control?

  Toshiba not stand in my knowledge of Windows on the Satellite A660 8.1 and therefore you would not find drivers Windows 8.1 for this series.

  If you want to install the utilities and tools Toshiba Windows 8.1, you will need to seek such software in your own hand. But I'm not quite sure if software published for other portable Toshiba would be compatible with the A660 m model.

  However, the fact is that there is no such thing as the package of added value to win 8.1.
  This was the case with Vista or Win 7, but it is not available for Windows 8.1.
  The VAP has been replaced by the system of Toshiba driver.

• Trouble with a Satellite A660 wireless.

  I just bought a Toshiba Satellite A660.

  I can not connect to wireless internet. The wireless network is on and it is able to pick up wireless networks. I know that I have the right password (I also tried with unsecured networks) The Wireless tries to connect - request the password - and then says 'Unable to connect to the network' and the bar "troubleshooting."

  So far I have tried:
  -Connect to different networks, including friends, school and not protected with the same results.
  -Uninstall and reinstall the Belkin Wireless driver (and making sure that I have the most updated version), restart the computer each time.
  -Restart the router
  -ip renew and refresh

  All the time, it's the same problem. It does not recognize when an incorrect password has been entered, just somehow, it is impossible to make this final connection.

  However, there is also no problem to connect directly to the router with an Ethernet connection.

  All other computers in the House - one of them is a Toshiba Qosmio are works well and can connect. I had endeavoured to put the laptop up to similar parameters like the Qosmio, but also nothing helped.

  Any advice would be appreciated.

  Hello

  Some additional software is preinstalled on your laptop that can be responsible for this? Something like Zonealarm.

• Satellite A660 HDD failure

  Hi all
  I've had the laptop for someone to look at.
  The laptop model is TOSHIBA SATELLITE A660, Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit.
  This is not my laptop, I can't tell if the person has been using some software dengerous like spyware or any other, but I suppose that it is very likely.

  + WHAT IS THE PROBLEM? +
  There is a problem with the HARD disk, a message all the time, SMART 'failure predicted on hard drive '. PC is running, but slow, and not always to start Windows. Has more no guarantee on the computer, the store where it was purchased no longer exists. I don't have a recovery CD and Windows is stored in the recovery partition.
  The owner of the PC complained of strange noises from PC for a while, but I didn't hear myself.

  + WHAT I'VE DONE SO FAR? +
  I searched the forums for an answer, but I have not found.
  I tried to look at the HARD drive, it is stable, not loose and seems fixed correctly.
  First thing I tried was the disk check, but it wasn't even to start. When I restarted the PC once I gave a chkdsk command, there was a black screen with info, it will start the process in 10,9,8... 1 sec, he stuck to 1 sec and never begun the process. After some time I left he thinks, PC off by itself (AC adapter / CC was pulged in all time).
  I tried to find the computer, I brought to the factory settings, but it did not help. The problem is always present and laptop is terribly slow. BTW, I had to try twice, once there was an error: error F3-FFCC-0006, I discovered, that the error appears when the AC adapter / CC was missing, but it is pluged in all the time.
  I brought the BIOS to its factory settings, which is probably not relevant.

  + WHAT I WANT TO KNOW? +
  Is there a possible way to repair the HARD drive?
  OK, I agree that I probably need to buy a new HARD drive, there is only one thing I would like to know. How can I get WIN7 installed without the CD? I know that I have the CD key and license, but how do I get the CD? I do purchuase CD from Microsoft? Purchuased of TOSHIBA recovery CD solve my problem?

  Thanks for any help.
  I will appreciate it asap, cause this laptop is required by the owner of that an option to send the laptop to the service and wait weeks for some 'help' is not an option.

  > Is there a way to repair the HARD drive?

  No, what you can do is to repair / fix the bad sectors on the HARD drive, but if there is a physical problem, it will not help

  > How can I get WIN7 installed without the CD? I know that I have the CD key and license, but how do I get the CD?

  The key belongs to the image of Toshiba that I n t think that it will work to activate the system installed using MS Win 7 disc
  However, you can download Windows 7 image of page Microsoft (google for it)
  Then you can burn the image to disk using Nero or other burning application supporting iso burning and could use this disc to install Windows 7

  Otherwise, you can order the Toshiba recover drive here:

• Satellite A660 - custom install from the recovery disk

  I like my windows costs. I do not have programs that I don't really need. I tried to uninstall some of them, but they always leave unexpected pieces behind them. So is there a way to stop the factory reset on A660 before installing drivers and other software. So I can install the readers updated and the programs I want to.

  I noticed that I can leave the program that installs Windows regarding the Office when using ctrl-alt-delete. Thing is that it will start again once the computer restarts then I have to remove this program from loading at the beginning upward. Can anyone share ideas?

  I would be really nice if Toshiba allows us to decide what kind of programs that we have in our computer.

  Satellite A660 97u model. Windows 7.

  Hey,.

  I put t think its bloatware. It s tools can you FN keys, webcam, etc. Laptop with a lot of material requires a lot of drivers and software. In addition, you also get a large number of tools that makes computing easier, like Toshiba Bulletin Board software, burning, etc.
  If you remove it n don't like this software, but it s kind of Toshiba to deliver these software with laptops.

  But to answer your question: custom installation is not possible because the recovery disk contains a ready image of factory settings, no single file.
  This is why you must use a Microsoft disc.
