• Satellite A660-18 suspended and needs hard reboot

  My Satellite A660-18 crashes every two days about 2/3 times. I can't press ctrl + alt + del and the mouse does not move. I pressed the power button to restart manually. It started about two weeks after I got it in September. I watch a lot of videos online (and offline) and usually after the screen freezes / crashes, audio continues and extends. I thought that it was a problem with IE8, so I switched to Google Chrome, but it still continues. This occurs also in offline mode. Also, after my laptop crashes, the fan speeds up so I thought it was an overheating issue. I bought a carpet of cooling a few days ago, and the system still hangs. I don't know what to do now, can anyone help?

  Intel core i7 1.73 GHz q740
  4.00 GB ram
  64-bit operating system
  Windows 7
  NVIDIA Geforce 310 M 512 MB dedicated video memory

  Hello

  It's not easy to say what causes this but you should check different things;

  (1) reinstall the OS. Dirty registry entries affect the OS eth feature
  (2) clean OS using CCleaner
  (3) check the bars of memory. Run the test using a tool like memtest86 + or similar
  (4) check the HARD disk. You can use Drive Fitness Test, which is free.
  (5) update BIOS and other pilots like graphics card driver

  Good luck

• Official Satellite A660 cant get and iTunes-64 updates moved

  Hello

  I've had my laptop for about 3 weeks now and have a few problems that maybe someone here can help with :)
  It's a Toshiba Satellite A660 Windows 7 64 bit, with all the options of support authorized toshiba - tempro, health bulletin board etc.

  Problem 1:
  The chips toshiba Board asked me to update a load of stuff - Bios, display drivers, wireless drivers etc.
  The only update (seems... it did not freeze at least) worked was the update of the broadcom wireless driver.
  So, for the update of the display, I download the file, unzip it and nothing is passes - I have tried to run the tinstallwb.exe.
  I am asked if I want the program to change the hard drive, I say Yes... and that's the last I've heard of it... tried for hours to make it work, but I look at a desktop computer without activity. In the folder to archive, if I try and run the setup.exe (the nvidia part) it says that no valid nvidia hardware has been detected.

  Problem 2:
  I tried the bios update, Bulletin Board asked me to install... it didn't, didn't want to install.

  Problem 3:
  I spend most of the time the laptop turned off, because it freezes on the screen of closing...

  Problem 4:
  Prob not a toshiba problem - but I can not install Quicktime or iTunes... the installer just freezes (it goes in not responing well) - I left runningn elaptop th for about 4 hours yesterday, trying to install itunes 64-bit until I had to kill the task (and turn it off, like shutdown does not work)

  Any ideas, I've given up trying to update the updates that the toshiba Council services told me to put up-to-date?
  I tried the update obvious everything I can, but the toshiba updates do not update :(
  Other software: MS Office and Outlook, firefox.

  Thanks for any help,

  Andy

  Hello

  (1) you can download all the drivers directly from the page of European driver of Toshiba.
  If you really need an update, then you must download the file, should save on the HARD drive should unzip the package and must be run setup.exe or should update the driver from Device Manager.

  (2) this is a HowTo doc on update of the BIOS:
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/Ann.jspa?annID=60
  If this is not possible, then your Windows operating system might be confused to the top and maybe you should get the phone before performing a BIOS update.

  (3) as suggested above; all these questions could be linked to the damaged operating system and maybe you need to reinstall the operating system to make it work again.

  (4) see point 3

• 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! :)

• Satellite A660-155 freezes and needs of startup repair or does not start

  Hello, in the middle of the month of August, I bought a satellite a660-155, PSAW0E-00U00DEN S/N 5A214647K.
  It is registered under warranty until the Aug2011.
  After less than a week, it refused to start.
  I rang support and they recommended that I use the recovery discs to restore to factory condition. I did and spent the next 3 nights reload software and my backup disk data.

  Since then he refuses sometimes to start the hard drive with a relative error that it cannot rfind and then ask which drive to boot from. If I select the hard drive, it starts later. Sometimes when running he crashes and then restarts.

  Last night, after that it had not been used for a few days, I woke up he "sleep" mode. I logged on okay, but then the blue logo 'circly' comes on, spinning away happily, and nothing else (just for logging on the text). After 30 minutes, I pressed the power button to turn off because the cell phone was totally insensitive.
  On commissioning, I got a white screen for 30 minutes, then the Startup Repair option.
  I launched it and check start lasted almost an hour and an hour, then he said, trying to repair. After a few hours, I left and went to bed. This morning, he showed the guest of logon and connected properly, as if nothing had ever happened.

  I lost confidence in Toshiba laptops, (I am responsible for computer SCIENCE) and I've never seen this problem before on a so-called quality machine. I only ise it fot simple e-mail/internet/word documents.

  All I can conclude is that there is little material defective (hard drive) that stops responding intermittently.

  I sent support at 07:00 this morning, but have not had a response.

  Can you help me? This machine needs ideally replace or repair collection, back in working condition 100% reliable. Could someone please contact me to see where I go from here?
  Under the law of consumption, you have a duty to rectify my sad situation, that the flaw exists again.

  Thank you

  Thanks for the info!
  Seems to replace the HARD drive would solve!

• Satellite A660 - limited to 2 MB/s USB key

  I have a Satellite A660 PSAW #C - 047017. Transfers of files with several sticks of memory appear to be limited to 2 MB/s. Theoretically, it is much more than an order of magnitude higher. Anyone else encounter this?

  Hi Bookworm123,

  Can you post more information about this behavior? What operating system you are using and if it s the version preinstalled Windows of Toshiba or not.

  Generally support USB itself is a function of the speed of transfer of files on USB support

  Have you checked the Device Manager for the yellow exclamation points on the USB ports? I would try a chipset driver in your case and it can be downloaded on the official page of Toshiba:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

• Satellite A660 - meter problem and the function of the power keys do not work

  Hi all

  The drop down menu that appears when I pressed on the FN key disappeared as well as when I turn of the backlit using FN + Z, light under the keyboard just turns off but the light beneath logo buttons on it near the power buttons and satellite does not turn off. How can I solve this?

  The computer displays the electric meter error and eco top near power button never lights energy saving does not work. I tried to reinstall the driver of programs/toshiba eco, but it says BIOS not supported.

  Before you try to reinstall the VAP, try to restart the Flash Cards Support utility. Utility support card Flash controls the FN keys and you can restart it in all programs-> Toshiba-> restart Flash Cards

• Satellite A660 - 11 M and fan speed controller

  Hello

  Is there anyway to reduce the speed of the fan on the A66011m Satellite?
  The fan operates at 67% and makes too much noise for use in an office environment. Is it possible to reduce this?

  Thank you

  Adam

  Hello Adam

  There is a single way to do this. Go to power management and open the advanced power settings for the management of the power supply you use.
  You will find Toshiba Power Saver options and parameters for the method of cooling. Open it and put them in optimized battery.

  This should reduce the activity of fan cooling.

• HP DC7600 - will not turn on, red light and beeps.

  Hello

  In my office, that we just moved all the furniture around, all workstations have been displaced and worked fine before the move.

  One of them now won't start, its a flat Tower HP DC7600. She now does when you press the power button, is flashing a red light and a beep 5 times. Then do the same thing again and again.

  Any idea as to what could be the problem?

  Thank you very much

  Ben

  It sort!

  Red Power LED blinks 5 times, once every second, followed by a pause of two seconds. Beeps stop after the fifth iteration but LEDs continue until the problem is resolved. Out of memory error video pre 5. 1 reinstall the DIMMs. Turn on the system. 2. replace the DIMM one by one to isolate the faulty module. 3. replace the third-party memory by memory HP. 4. replace the motherboard.

  Thanks for looking anyway!

• HP Z620 workstation: HP Z620 Workstation - WS displays video & Fans Spin loudly or fails - red light with 8 beeps

  Hello
  
  I have a HP Z620 workstation.

  My processor is an Intel Xeon E5-2660 SR0KK 2.2 GHZ 20 MB 8 GT/s LGA 2011 8 - Core CPU.  More correctly, it's a category of Xeon E5-26xx (dual processor), 8 cores, frequency 2.2 GHz, turbo 5/5/6/6/7/7/8/8, 8 × 256 KB L3 cache 20 MB L2 cache, 95 W TDP, Socket LGA 2011, i/o bus 2 × 8.0 GT/s QPI, × 4 memory DDR3-1600, release date 6 March 2012, CM8062107184801 part number.  This is version 1, not version 2, which is good because the card in my system startup block date 20/12/2011.

  I am using Kingston ValueRAM 16 GB Kit (2x8GB) DDR3 1333 MHz DIMM Desktop Server Memory.   (J'ai également essayer écarter un problème de mémoire utilisé FUREUR de Kingston HyperX 8 GB Kit (2x4Go) 1333 MHz DDR3 CL9 DIMM - black (HX313C9FBK2/8)) as well as herself, to see if that makes a difference.)

  I don't know how to identify my system board other than the one she reads only numbers as "FMB-1102" and "PBLNV0GCY4N0TF" and "such as #618264-001 REV 0 G'.  He has "hp (copyright symbol) 2012 ' and"E93839"and"FXN1"written on it as well.  (After some searching I guess it's card mother 618264-001.  Which differ a card system like 619559-001 - a model later?)
  
  My graphics card is a XFX R7 240 780 MHz 4 GB DDR3 HDMI DVI VGA graphics card.  (I also try out a video card problem used an EVGA Nvidia GeForce GT 620 1 GB DDR3 SDRAM PCI Express 2.0 x 16 video card to see if it would make a difference.)
  
  Regarding the power supply, the power supply standard HP Z620 computer PC 800W Power Supply S10-800P1A 623194-002 717019-001.  (I have more than one and who have tried also.)

  With respect to the hard drive, I have formatted and reused a WD Blue 500 GB Desktop hard drive - 7200 RPM SATA 6 Gb / s, 16 MB Cache 3.5 inches - WD5000AAKX.

  My problem:

  1 regardless of what video card I use, if I use the FURY of Kingston HyperX 8 GB Kit (2x4gb) 1333 MHz DDR3 CL9 DIMM - black (HX313C9FBK2/8) memory and starts, I get a blue light, no beeps, no code of message I can say.  However, no tension of the video card (fans not spin) and no power is supplied to the drive hard (do not load and run).  I get a blank screen and can see nothing.  Back fans begin to turn in very strong and turbo mode.

  2 regardless of what video card I use, if I use the Kingston ValueRAM 16 GB Kit (2x8GB) DDR3 1333 MHz DIMM Desktop Memory Server, I get a red light and eight beeps which means a kind of ROM BIOS/CMOS-problem problem problem.  To this end, I tried pressing the button Clear CMOS without result.  I removed the CMOS battery for a sufficient period of time and again.  Nothing changes this situation.  It only happens when I put this special memory in the computer.  If I stick a USB Thumb Drive with file BIOS (BIN) in it which is 3. XX or higher, it will boot to the BIOS on a limited basis.  I also had to understand that I couldn't do anything with a USB keyboard, I could only select options using a PS/2 keyboard - maybe it crashes on some USB devices at this point?

  3. I understand that if I let the rider of recovery from crisis on the 2nd and 3rd pins rather than pins 1 and 2, that it will load from a backup and I can actually do things.   On this basis, I was able to install Windows 10 education 64-bit and a host of programs and otherwise, use the computer normally.  But I can't start unless I have keep that crisis rider of recovery set to pins 2 and 3 and so he can start in the operating system normally by pressing F1.

  4. I while on Windows, updated the BIOS to the latest version, HP Z420/Z620 Workstations system BIOS 3.90 Rev.A (August 8, 2016) using sp77058.exe (19 MB).  I've also updated other drivers as I could with the HP SoftPaq Download Manager (SDM).  None of this changes the problem at initial boot upward.  At the start he complains front chassis fan does not turn, but this is not a problem I have printing allows to stop a boot to the top, it would give just a warning and still boot normally.

  Well my computer works and does that as long as I keep this crisis recovery jumper on.  But I feel that I should be able to solve the problem and he can begin without interference and without resorting to a measure as drastic.  Suggestions anyone?

  Thanks in advance for your time.

  MR. J.

  Juggerknight,

  Keep the rider of recovery of block starting on pins 2 and 3 of E15.  It's 'off' because the 3 pin is not connected.  Put the jumper to pins 2 to 3 "parks" the rider.  Put the jumper on pins 1-2 active boot block recovery mode, and the system does not start with the jumper in this position 'on '.  (You have already discovered this)

  In addition, do not mix unbuffered and registered in the same system memory.  Use either one or the other.

• Satellite A660 - WLan Broadcom 802.11n very slow on Win 8

  Hello.

  I have a Satellite A660 PSAW3a 07r00r and my speedtest is usually 12 or 13 MB/s
  After you have installed Windows 8 64 bit, my speed went back to 2 or 3 MB/s.
  All my other computers are still at 12 or 13 MB/s.

  I tried the drivers 64-bit windows 7 as well but no luck.
  It seems to be a common theme when I googled.
  My broadcom driver version is 5.60.48.35.

  Someone at - it solution or something for me to try?

  Thank you, Will.

  Hello

  As I m not wrong the 802.11 standards (B/G/N) WLan wireless card BROADCOM BCM94313 supports.

  What Wlan standard are you using exactly?
  The Wlan standard can be changed in the Device Manager-> card WLan-> properties-> Advanced tab

  Given that the wireless network adapter supports 802.11 B / G and N, the 2.4 Ghz frequency is supported.
  This means that max 54 Mbps transfer rate is supported
  But it's just a theoretical value. You will never get to 54 megabits/s usual speed would be ~20Mbit/s = ~ 2.5Mbyte / s

  As you already get 2 or 3 MB/s, everythign seems to be OK

• 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.
