Satellite A660 - recovery and partitioning of the C drive

I have an A660 running Win 7 (64-bit) and he always has to turn more slowly than I expected.

I have a 450 GB C drive and would like to reformat the drive and partition to C and D.
I want to make a full recovery and re-partition.

The question is what someone did this and if so what are the steps?
That is to say, first, then recover the partition or I partition and then recover?

Thank you
Ramin

In my opinion, you create restore DVD first. Then install the recovery image using these discs and when the OS is finished set partitions on your laptop.

After doing this, it can happen that you will not be able to use the disk HARD recovery option more but the DVD of recovery only if as a first step in the history please create these recovery disks.

  • Satellite A100-192: what I lose warranty if I create a partition on the HARD drive

    Hello everyone,

    I want to format my laptop (Toshiba Satellite A100-192) and 2 partitions. I've been using EMP cd + recovery CD, it's very simple, but I don't want to install all the programs of Toshiba. I want to install a Windows 'fresh '.

    I read all the messages on Toshiba Express media CD + recovery CD and xxxx on the HARD drive. I'm a bit confused. Many of you said: 'use only EMP recovery cd + CD' or ' do not xxxx 2 or more on your HARD drive - you can lose the warranty of your laptop.

    I have another CD with Windows XP Pro OEM. It is best to create partitions, install from that cd and after that to install the drivers from TOOLSCD?

    Of course, I don't want to lose my warranty, please tell me how it is better to do!

    Sincerely yours.
    Daniel

    Hello

    > Many of you said: 'use only EMP CD + recovery CD' or '' do not 2 or more partitions on your HARD drive.
    ' > you can lose the warranty of your laptop.

    Someone told you a big story :)

    It turns out; you do not lose the warranty after you create partitions on your HARD drive!
    Only if you open the laptop and will try to fix something by yourself, you will lose your warranty.

    Of course, you can use your fresh and original Windows operating system. After the installation of the operating system, you can install the drivers from the CD tools Toshiba or you're going to download it from the page of Toshiba.

  • Satellite A660 - keyboard and mouse start clicking on self

    Hi all

    I bought a Satellite A660 yesterday, and he begins to show a problem with the keyboard and mouse as well. The two begin clicking one for himself, and after some time, stops, but again. I did all windows 7 updates but didn't solve.

    Anyone know what I can do? Regardz Alex

    I recommend you to install the recovery image again (recovery disk with F8 at startup option).
    After that do what you will get new out-of-box state. Do not install the updates. At first check to see if the problem persists.
    If so, contact your dealer as soon as possible and ask for Exchange.

  • Satellite A660 - 11 M - vents on the body

    Hi all!

    Last week, I started to play ARMA 2 on my SATELLITE A660 - 11M and after 20 minutes of play, it of hot and automatically closed. I read a lot of topics in the forum and decide to clean the cooler with compressed air can. Suddenly ive noticed this laptop isn't under the reoxygenation of body orifices, exactly where where is the cooler fan. To describe this more correctly, I can say that on the side rear of the body of the laptop there is circle from vents but this grid is absolutely fully molded.
    I think it comes to Foundry defects.

    Anyone has the same problem? How can I do a breakdown of the holes?

    Hey,.

    If you mean the holes to vent on the bottom of your computer, I can say it s normal Satellite A660 doesn t have a. Friend of me has the same laptop as you and its a doesn t have holes to.
    So everything is ok with your laptop!

    It would interesting to know, if you have installed another nVidia display driver directly. These drivers have another thermal management and can cause problems.

    I recommend you to install the latest Toshiba display driver which is pretested.

  • Satellite A660 - Bluetooth problem - disappeared from the bar of the State etc.

    Dear all,

    frustrated newbie.

    Bluetooth has disappeared from the system on my Satellite A660 tray and I can't work out how to get it back.
    It worked a few months ago, but since I don't use it everyday,
    I did not notice when he disappeared.

    I tried the fsquirt.exe thing, but the icon opens a window that does nothing (it seems to me that bluetooth is off but I can't find where to turn it on and Fn + F8 does not work).

    I have downloaded the driver atheros, which is extracted to a temporary folder and then does nothing.
    I think I need to uninstall - reinstall but do not know how to proceed.

    Any ideas appreciated.

    arghh

    Arfur

    All this is a bit complicated on your laptop. I assume that stick Toshiba BT (BT software) is always pre-installed on your machine. Can you please check?

    Using the FN key combination you can toggle WIFI and BT. When you say that it does not work how to understand this? Can you turn on WLAN on/off? BT option IS missing? You can use the WLAN button placed between the keyboard and display (function keys)?

    Please check such fundamental things in first and post more details. Later we continue to discuss reinstalling drivers.

  • Satellite A660-1FM - maximum resolution of the display of the external monitor

    Hi all

    Maybe it is (probably) an easy question to answer, but I have a Satellite A660-1FM and want to use it with my external screen Samsung Syncmaster (forgot model). I got a HDMI-> DVI - D adapter and everything is going well, but here's my question:

    The page of specifications of toshiba for my laptop (http://uk.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/product/Satellite-A660-1FM/1096013/toshibaShop/false/) shows a capacity of external resolution of:
    Maximum resolution: 2 048 x 1 536
    Max refresh rate: 100 Hz
    Resolution No interlaced with the maximum refresh rate: 1920 x 1 200

    But I get what I call resolution HDMI standard (no wonder, I guess) when connected HDMI-> DVI - D to my external monitor. I have already run this monitor on my desk at highest resolution of 1080 p, so the monitor is capable.
    Wondering what I'm missing here, or is that a matter of graphics card specification is more than possible to the output of the laptop?

    Thanks for any help
    Andy

    Hi Khaled,

    What is the native screen resolution of your external display?
    Can you connect your laptop and monitor with HDMI cable only why you need an adapter?

    To be honest I don't understand your question. If you already have the Full HD screen resolution why do you need more?

  • Tecra A8-104: how to create a second partition on the HARD drive

    Hello.

    I had to use the recovery disk, and I deleted by mistake my (two) initials of the partitions on the HARD drive. : ((now, I have only one.

    Can someone tell me how I can fix this?
    I want 2 partitions, not one. x 10

    The Toshiba Recovery CD could create two partitions.
    The installer will ask where or how install the OS on the HARD drive.

    For example, the HARD disk supports 100GB. So you can choose the first 60 GB for installing the OS and the difference (40 GB) could be activated after the installation of the OS.

    This can be done in the management of the computer-> disk management.

  • Equium L350 - 11 d - how do I delete the second partition on the HARD drive

    How can I delete the second partition that came with the laptop, so I can use the full capacity of computers HARD drive?

    I feel that this partition is their because I have not created a DVD of recovery he would remove the partition once I created the recovery DVDs.

    The score contains a folder of HARD disk RECOVERY and in the folder says do not delete or change this folder or files.

    I have a Toshiba Equium L350 - 11 d

    As you have already said that the second partition contains the HDD Recovery folder if you would remove this partition you will not be able to create the recovery DVD and would not be able to recover the laptop HARD drive.

    Therefore, you must create the DVD before recovery would remove anything from the second partition on the HARD drive.

    After you create the DVD recovery successfully, you could remove the partition and could add the free space on the HARD disk on the first partition.
    This can be done on disk management!

    Received my free copy of windows 7 home Premium

    Wanted a clean install (not an upgrade)

    Back up all the data and the programs that I installed

    During the installation of win 7, I deleted the recovery of the system partition and the 2nd partition of my HARD disk (has been labeled d, came that sort of lenovo factory, had 70 GB size I think)

    I thought that if I deleted the partition of the hard drive space would be added to the 1st partition and it did not

    Have materialized with the installation of win 7, and now I just have never found my C: and the GBs of the 2nd old partition so its as if I lowered my total HARD disk size

    How can I get my C: to have all of the 320 GB? Thanks for any advice!

    You can allocate the unused disk space as follows.

    Start > run > diskmgmt.msc

    Right-click on the Windows partition [should be C] and click on "expand". Extend partition as needed and enjoy.

  • Satellite L300 (PSLB8A-0VK004) - cannot find the webcam driver

    Hi everyone, I recently had to do a clean install of Vista Ultimate (32 bit) on my Toshiba Satellite L300 PSLB8A0VK004

    Unfortunately I could find the drivers for the integrated Webcam. I installed several different versions of the Camera Assistant Software without success with everything that ends with the window, that drivers have failed. Please restart your PC or something similar. After several boots the same problem appears. Device Manager only tells me that all drivers are missing - however I don't seem to see anything on a webcam?

    Everyone knows the same thing? I don't think that Webcam drivers would change within each variant L300?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you

    Hello

    Your model is a Australian and can be found on the Australian Toshiba page:
    www.MyToshiba.com.au > Support > downloads

    Then enter your model number (PSLB8A-0VK004) and all the drivers will be listed for this model. There is only one pilot of the webcam that you can download for Vista 32 bit: Chicony Camera Software and this is the correct driver.
