• Satellite A660-07U - cannot install the new display driver

  When I got to my laptop, it wouldn't even start the box! So I googled how to get operational and it wouldn't install Windows 7 32 bit, so I installed Windows 7 64 bit and that worked.

  I am one of the users who is also having their laptop freeze on them at all times. I did the update to the Bios and it always does. So I decided to try to update the graphics drivers with new ones on this site, but it seems that they won't install. I got 64-bit drivers for Windows 7 first, I have Windows 7 64 bit installed in my laptop. But it cannot find the necessary material, I thought, he says its because my laptop is not a 3D version, should even elsewhere?

  So then I tried the 32 bit drivers and it says im using the wrong system operating system for these drivers.

  How about if some drivers I can use?

  Hello

  A moment I really t understand: why you have your own version of Windows 7?
  Usually by Satellite A660 is always equipped with operating system (Windows 7) and it s already preinstalled. This means that you can start your computer laptop out of the box and Windows 7 will begin. Therefore, you don't need an additional installation.
  And let me guess: you don t have created a right Toshiba Recovery disk?

  In any case, before update you the display driver you must remove the older version first. Then, restart your computer and install the latest version.

• Satellite A660 - Fans is very strong

  Hello

  Ive recently bought toshiba satellite a660 11 m, its great, but his fans are very noisy even when im doing nothing (zero open applications)
  When I open the toshiba pc health monitor he always says temp: 50 c on avrg and fans * always * on 68 to 70%. (now when im typing this fans are at 68% and only google chrome opens sometimes it looks like his office, no cell phone)
  Note that laptops is 3 weeks old, so I doubt there is any dust in the cooling system.
  Anyone else having this type of problem?
  THX

  Hello

  What to say... My a500 is also great noise even I tried upgrading the Bios, play with power settings, cleaning of cooling system. fan control utility like speedfan and many other things but still... I just don't pay attention to the noise of the fan. You can reduce the noise loading the Cpu with some applications so that the fan continues to constantly operate at 54% with a less noticeable noise.

• Satellite Pro A120 (PSAC1E-05E01FIT) - fan always to the maximum. Speed

  Hello, in this laptop now I istalled this CPU: Intel Core Duo (Yonah) [email protected] and it's OK.

  This morning, I tried to replace the processor with this: Intel Core 2 Duo Mobile T7200 (Merom) processor.
  Works from pc but didn't enter the BIOS, the fan always starts at maximum speed, S.O. Windows XP Pro has started, but the fan still max speed!

  Why?

  Hello!

  You also have this problem with your old CPU?

  In my opinion, the problem is the new processor. Maybe your motherboard / CPU doesn't support and so the fan run always on the highest speed.
  If you just replace the CPU by yourself, it could be that you have used enough thermal grease.

  Updates on the laptop I can prefer this Toshiba document:

• Satellite A660 - fan 90% on battery optimized mode

  Hi all my dear users of Toshiba that I really respect because they use such great brand Toshiba. I hope you have the time to read my problem and that its length can not bother you and you can do me favor and answer me.
  I am from Egypt and I recently bought the Toshiba Satellite A660 - 17M. It is really a great device and I've updated the BIOS twice on the official website of Toshiba and now I have the 2.00 BIOS os independent.

  My problem now is that the fan cooling and here's what happens with me. When I adjust method in the Toshiba cooling ensures peak performance so that the temp is between 36 to 63% and the fan speed is 52 to 75% and it takes a lot of time turns off because it is not easy to reach the beach of temp which makes it either stops when I'm inactive or work.

  The largest part of the problem is that when I change the method of cooling battery optimized mode everything working the fan going to 90% and rest, so never or up to this I put the laptop before in the refrigerator for 2 to 3 minutes. Then it is cool and it stops. So in the meantime either inactive or work done, it jumps again to 90%. When I turned off my laptop and wait to be completely cooled, then turn it on while in battery optimized mode the fan starts working during start-up only stops until Windows starts completely then it climbs to 90% and remaining so ever except when I force him to be cool by placing it in front of the fridge.

  My friends, I think that it is not logical to always work in conditions of refrigerator and also it is illogical to have fan always 90% especially that I'm on battery optimized mode.

  What is the problem in your opinion, and if someone has the same laptop can help and describe what is happening with him also. I do not remember if these events are produced before BIOS set to day or not as I they weren't in my mind before BIOS update and I don t know whether or not this happens also before the BIOS update.

  From what I understand, is that the battery optimized mode fan running weaker than the maximum performance mode. Then what's happening and if you say he remains silent until this than complete Windows starts and runs then 90% to compensate for the accumulated heat, I agree with you, but shouldn't t happen to some extend then stops at the battery life optimized according to the name of the battery optimized mode.

  Really I am so disappointed and now know what the problem is. Please help and don t advise me to call Toshiba. Whatever they say please send us the laptop. I m waiting for your responses and thanks a lot for the time spent reading my message.

  Hey,.

  Normally if you use the battery mode optimized for the method of cooling the fan will run less maximum performance. So your laptop will work more silent, but with a higher temperature but usually you don't notice it.

  So if this happened only since the update of the BIOS is you load the default settings in the BIOS after update? Go to the BIOS Setup and press F9 to load the default values. Then save & exit the BIOS Setup.

  I would be also interesting to know what operating system you are using. What is the version preinstalled Windows from Toshiba or your own installation?

  The fan should be cleaned from time to time using a jet of compressed air to blow the dust from the cooling fans. This can also help improve the cooling. An accurate and interesting article on cleaning the notebook, you can find here:

  Hello

  You about Egypt?
  Well, I think that it of very hot it right?

  This is so for more why the laptop s modules cooling must run faster than usual.

  In addition, you should check your cooling modules. Possibly, there is a lot of dust and debris. All these fans and cooling grids must be clean! Air needs to circulate and to remove dust and debris.

  I clean my fans using a jet of compressed air. It helps to clean the fans.

• 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.

• Satellite A660 - Tempro alerts and the status of the guarantee

  I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite A660. Windows 7 64-bit.
  First Tempro worked but I have not had an update since October 6 and my warranty status now says
  'Standard Standard warranty Toshiba unregistered'?
  Think this should happen when Tempro advised me on a Tempro itsself update: update around 6 October?
  I registered my guarantee that some moths back, I can not re - save that I am already registered, I can confirm that my warranty is until August 2011 on the toshiba support site.
  I can browse and then install updates from toshiba but not by Tempro. Infact today I downloaded Tempro 3.3.4 and installed.
  TEMPRO is activated and shows my correct series and number of model, but always said that my warranty is not registered.

  Under condition of the guarantee: guarantee offers, help and register buttons all work, but clicking on the button "Refresh" seems to do nothing. If I disconnect my internet and press "update" button there is no percievable difference?

  I'm sure theres no firewall problem, but put exceptions in TemproSvc.exe and TemproTray.exe to be sure.

  I know that Toshiba say wait 5 days for the warranty to show registered but surely that does not mention when you click on the update button, but since time of your registration?
  Which for me was long August/September.

  Hey Buddy,

  Where to check the details of the warranty for your laptop?
  For European laptops, you can check the warranty here: http://www.toshiba-tro.de/unitdetails

  If it s are not correct, you should ask a service provider authorized in your country or contact Toshiba people under [email protected] and explain your situation.

  Good luck! :)

• Why the FAN always ON the 2nd level - Toshiba Tablet R20-112?

  Hello
  I wonder why the FAN on CORE 2 DUO T5600 1.8 still working on 2nd level
  Although I watch the movie or listen to music on Winamp when the processor is enabled in the lowest power manager.
  Sometimes when I work only with battery fan goes to level 1, very quiet, but only when the Core2Duo have nothing to do, when I turn for example winamp or internal search FAN runs at the 2nd level, much more noise. The air coming out of the fan he has about 31' C.
  I have the most recent bios on this subject. I tried to turn the processor low always, but without effect.

  The battery remains 4 hours as it usually must (4700mAh), 02:30-3 hours on economy mode max.

  Is it possible to change that affect of perhaps of witch fan noisy most energy?

  Best regards

  Hello

  In my view, there is a similar situation as the Portege M400 (also tablet PC). The cooling fan runs almost constantly. Toshiba has designed the special version of BIOS and after update the laptop BIOS works silently. Maybe something like this will be for Satellite R20 but at the moment it is no things to do. You can only reduce the performance of the processor.

  Sorry but I do not see a solution for this. I can't tell you that but 4 hours on battery battery operation time is for me absolutely unrealistic. I have Tecra business notebook. Energy consumption is really minimal, and I can't work more than 3 hours.

• Satellite A660 boots up to the black screen with blinking cursor not upper left

  My new Satellite A660-10W sometimes (not always), when turned on, boots up to a black screen with a flashing cursor in the top left. If I stop by pressing the power button, it stops immediately. I then wait a few seconds and press the power button again and then it usually starts very well.

  Could it be updated during this process and I'll be more patient (usually wait a few minutes) before shutting down when this happens?

  Usually something like that shouldn't happen. Satellite A660 is no different from all the other models and OS must be loaded shortly after Toshiba welcome screen appears.
  Do you use your laptop with factory settings or you have changed something?

  Hi Red

  I n t have this model of laptop and cannot test BIOS update but I want to tell you that the update of the BIOS is not necessary if your system works well. If your system works well und stabile don t change anything.

  In any case, I hope that someone with the same model laptop can confirm this error happens on this model of laptop.

• 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

  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

  Hey Buddy,

  I m not a Linux expert, but generally this Linux live CD can t be installed. You can start only to CD or a USB key because they don t write anything on the HARD drive. So I think that you need a different version.

  Here most users use the version preinstalled Windows, but maybe this article can help you:
