Satellite A660 - wen of video streaming VGA driver crash

Satellite A660 - my computer hangs and the VGA driver crashes and then recovers when I watch Youtube or any other streaming site. I think that there is a problem with VGA drivers. I have Windows 7 64 bit. Rarely, windows get completely frozen and must be started cold.

Friends of ideas?

Hey,.

Yes, sometimes I read on these issues here in the forum, but the solution is simply: update the display driver!

You can download the latest drivers for your laptop from Toshiba's official website:
http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

But before installing the latest version I recommend to remove the old first and restart your laptop. Then you install the most recent.

I hope it works :)

  • Satellite A660-07U freezes when Streaming video

    I bought a Toshiba satellite A660 07U 2 months ago.
    Since the beginning, when I try to watch any video streaming of Facebook, Youtube, etc, my system crashes completely and don't stop making the zzzzz... noise and I have to manually shut down the laptop by pressing the power button.

    This happens very often now. I contacted toshiba support and the response was to change my microphone amplifier, configure Volume settings... : smileysurprised:.

    Does anyone have advice for this problem?

    Hello

    This only happens for internet streaming videos or have you noticed that also play videos stored on the HARD drive?
    Could it be linked to the internet connection is slow?

    If this isn't the case, then I would check the processes running in the background. Some processes may insist on the CPU, and this might be the reason of this gel.

    Just an another idea;
    Have you checked a few other graphics drivers? Update the driver and test again.
    I recommend also using actors.

  • Satellite A660 - do not find external DVD drive

    Hey guys. Newbie displaying in total despair of and needing help! I posted in other forums without success. I bought a Samsung SH-D162D DVD drive in a USB enclosure to connect to my Satellite A660 via USB.

    I can't get Windows 7 to find! When I plug in the USB cable, the ball comes up to say that it has been installed (sometimes), I can see it on for about 1 or 2 minutes then he falls. It is not listed in my hardware or anything. Its not found in disk management or my devices, so it is not a case to change the drive letter - I can't find the drive to change. I also tried to find upper and lower settings in regedit. Could not find them so couldn't remove them as suggested in other posts of this nature.

    It is set to master, the IDE connector and power connectors are very good. Its got to be a cause of problem of Windows 7 it comes very briefly. In the minute or 2 sound, I can't do anything with it. It crashes right although it will open and close. I've google it and can't find anything. Mainly of registry issues, but they did not help.

    Ive also connected to another laptop with XP and had no problems so I know the DVD Rom works very well and all the cables are ok. Ive tried all 4 USB ports on my laptop and also disabled all the parameters of energy. All with no luck. And I also all Windows 7 update.

    This is exactly what happens to the power out of the Cabinet.

    1. I connect the USB cord then turn on the enclosure.
    2 - I quickly click Start, and I can see the DVD Rom E player beside my computer laptop dvd rom.
    3 - the green bar above starts to fill to the top, from left to right and gets to half way then suddenly disappears icon of DVD Rom and makes the green bar.
    4. He then flashes up in computers laptops DVD Rom icon with a player of Local E drive, but only for a fraction of a second.
    5. sometimes a balloon comes up saying peripheral installation, then the installed device successfully... but not every time.

    And that's all. I'm at a total loss and the cant work, so any help is really appreciated!

    Hi Smee,

    So if you have already connected the external hard drive on another computer, and it worked correctly, it seems to be a driver or compatibility between your external DVD drive problem and and your Satellite A660

    It will be connected to the port USB then you tried to remove all the USB ports on the Device Manager? After that, you must restart your computer and the USB ports will be recognized automatically from the Device Manager. In addition, I would also try updating the chipset driver. New version, which you can download on the official website of Toshiba:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    Have you also tested other devices on your A660 if they work properly?

  • Satellite A660 - how to specify as boot drive eSATA

    I'm going to make a clone of my HDD bootable resident to a 2.5 "SATA in a connection to the laptop via eSATA box. I restarted my computer and press F12 (or F2 for BIOS) to see how to select the boot order. The devices listed are:

    HDD/SDD
    CD/DVD
    FLOPPY DRIVE
    LAN

    How does an eSATA boot? He explained in a technical forum that eSATA is considered "internal" and the A660 can start on it.

    Post edited by: Bookworm123

    Hello

    The BIOS of Satellite A660 supports booting from eSATA.
    The following devices are supported:
    -USB FDD,
    -Primary HDD/SSD,
    -Optical devices,
    -Network (LAN),
    -supported with eSATA

    I guess you will need to connect the boot device to the eSATA port before turning on the laptop and start the boot process.

  • Satellite A660 - 11 m - video DVD playback is quite grainy

    Hello.
    Not so long ago, I bought this Satellite A660 - 11 m and I am extreemly happy with it. Graphics capabilities are perfect for my games.
    One thing however, I noticed that the video playback is very grainy, especially with the DVD. I tried to use the best software like Cyberlink Power DVD DVD playback.
    Is it possible that I can improve the clarity of the video and remove the adhering and afterimage?

    Any help would be greatly apreciated.

    Thank you

    You tested it with the original or some cottages created DVD?
    Maybe you checked the first Blu - ray movies and later when you use DVD quality is not very good. ;)

  • Satellite L50 - B - 2 8 flashing screen + driver crash.

    Hi all

    When you work with my L50, sometimes the screen stops (black screen) 1 or 2 seconds and restard right after. Very like, remove power. Sometimes, I get notification that crashed the driver of the screen. The occurs when the power and the battery is almost full.

    I try to install the latest driver for support Tohiba without effects...

    Could you help me.

    Thank you very much
    Philippe

    Sometimes, I get notification that crashed the driver of the screen

    As I'm not mistaken the Satellite L50 - B - 2 8 takes care of two GPU:
    -Intel HD Graphics 5500, which is part of the Intel CPU and
    -AMD ATI Radeon R7 M260 is the external GPU.

    Now, knowing that it would be interesting to know which graphics card driver crashed.
    I mean the laptop can use either the Intel GPU or according to the settings... usually the Intel GPU ATI GPU is used if no application does not work who would need the power of the ATI graphics card... This saves the battery...

    However, its possible to switch between Intel and ATI GPU.

  • Satellite A660-17F - pixelated video in full screen

    Hello

    I'm having a major problem with a new laptop but custom retailer accept that there is nothing wrong with it. I am very pixelated and pictures jagged when you look at movies and also a few horizontal lines.
    I have been informed that the image quality is normal, but I don't think it is as my old laptop which has 4 years provides a much better picture. I read in some places that machines windows 7 can sometimes produce pixelated video but nothing about this laptop suggest that it should happen.

    I tried to update the drivers but the computer said they correct those that are installed so am stuck now with a cheap laptop (which I love) but has a terrible video quality.

    Screenshots are here:

    The sample provided with the laptop hd video: http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5258/5494556435_566ac3c7ff_b.jpg http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5055/5495059408_7d1b5d303b_b.jpg
    Davina in general and of his face are very pixleated: http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5093/5494466415_9eb6f67d55_b.jpg
    BBCI player, everything is very pixelated: http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5297/5495059298_fb42146fb9_b.jpg

    This may seem picky, but when you watch the video it's much more noticeable and really very annoying.

    Any suggestions are welcome?

    See you soon

    Hey,.

    Well, provided with the laptop HD videos are normal looking, I can see t nothing which is unusual. In addition he s always according to the source of the video, you need high quality source e. g. Blu - ray video where you n t see pixels.

    Generally speaking, it is difficult to say something without seeing this problem in front of me. I think that it s not possible to say if it of normal or not, this should be verified directly on laptop.

    In your case I would contact an authorized service provider. Guys have access to spare parts Toshiba and they can give you an official answer. So, check the list of all FSA and get in touch with the guys:

  • Satellite L450D - 13 X video streaming via Wi Fi Direct to TV

    Hello

    Please can someone help me with my problem.
    I'm trying to disseminate the content of my laptop on my TV Bravia KDL-50W685A

    I managed to connect the laptop to the TV but when I am connected to the TV my laptop does not give me the option to 'play to' when I right click.
    When I am not connected to the tv and I right click on the media, it gives me the ability to 'play to '.

    Anyone know anything about this? I missed something or is there a driver that I should have downloaded that I don't have?

    Help would be greatly appreciated.

    Also is he a quick and easy way to know if all my drivers are up to date?

    Thank you

    Wi - Fi Direct allows devices to connect directly to each other, without needing a connection internet or AP wireless access point - Fi (wlan router etc...)

    But as far as I know both devices need to use a standard sort of screencast like for example Miracast to communicate and disseminate the connection from the laptop / smartphone on television.

    I put t know if your TV supports this standard, but you can check this on the TV manufacturer page

    Just FYI: the laptop was equipped with Realtek 802.11bgn wireless network card the latest driver RTL8191SE can be found here

  • Satellite A65-51762 Mobility Radeon 7000 ICG driver crashes

    I have a Toshiba Satellitle A65 51762. It is operated for years without problems. 8 months, when running DVDShrink, DVDDecrypter, DVDFabDecrypter or WinDVD about every two weeks, the video will be suddenly fall to low resolution (640 x 480) and complain, but I could go on if it is DVDShrink, DVDDecrypter or DVDFabDecrypter. Reboot would bring it in high resolution...

    He got worse and worse, happening later in 30 to 60 minutes after the start of the program. Finally instead of restart I get blue screen hard C0000415 error, then asked if I wanted to restart normally, which was the case.

    Then I deleted all the software ATI, removed from the device, let WinXP reinstall VGA mode, and installed the updated driver. It worked fine for a few days and then started doing the same thing every two or three hours.

    Could this be material? The ATI MOBILITY RADEON 7000 ICG chip? Something else? How does the DVD? DMA? BIOS? He will return to the factory or can I get chips?

    It feels more like software. How can I check it out? Are you familiar with the problem?

    Orly has already suggested he looks like a hardware problem and not a problem of display driver
    Then maybe it's time to make a call to a technician of ASP?  :|

    I don't think it's a general or common problem. I have the Satellite P500 with the NVIDIA card inside. Pre-installed driver is Toshiba 8.16.11.8829 driver version, and I have never notice one problem with display or graphics in general.

    I watch blu - ray movies, very often HD trailers on YouTube, play games (for the time Medal of honor, Black Ops) and everything works perfectly.

  • Satellite A660-07 s keeps freezing when streaming videos

    I bought a new laptop from Toshiba Satellite A660-07 s recently, since he started to freeze when I use video applications, such as Skype or Youtube, etc... Frost occurs randomly, and the only way out is long by pressing the switch (hunting). I returned the laptop several times for Toshiba certified technician and we almost completely reinstall software and operating system, replace the motherboard, graphics card, memory etc. and the problem is always the case. The laptop is great and does the job very well except for this random gel that is very annoying and there is no way to explain why it is happening.

    I think maybe there is a flaw in the design of the system and components do not work together very well. I also read on a few other issues with laptops satellite which freezes. I use another laptop, and I am a computer scientist. Never had this problem before and can not explain why this laptop freezes in particular. Can anyone shed light on what could be the problem to the technician and users may be able to solve this problem.
    As I said, we have tried all what you would do to eliminate the problem and nothing has worked so far.

    Thanks in advance for your responses and suggestions.

    Hey,.

    I m wondering really that your computer laptop doesn t work properly with video applications. Friend of me has the same laptop and it often use video applications like Skype, Youtube, etc. Also, he'd watch DVD and blu - ray but no problems at all.
    It uses the version preinstalled Windows from Toshiba and everything is ok.

    In your case I would ask again authorized service provider what they can do for you. I mean if many parts have been replaced already there must be a solution to your problem and if it of a hardware related problem, you can do anything and you need professional help.

    Perhaps the ASP can get in touch with Toshiba directly or else just talk a bit with them, I m sure that the problem could be solved.

    Sorry that I can't say more, but the A660 from my friend is the perfect job.

  • Impossible to install video controller (VGA Compatible) - Satellite A210

    I recently had my laptop cleaned caused by viruses and when I got home I was missing some things (device Base System x 3, Ethernet controller, SM Bus controller and video controller (VGA Compatible) to be exact).

    I don't have the installation CD because I've moved a few times, so I can t you install it.
    I looked up how to solve this problem, but that s where I hit a dead end. If I go on the Toshiba site to install the video driver that he sends me to the Nvidia site and when I go to download any driver it says during the installation, the Nvidia Setup program could not find compatible drivers, Setup will close. No matter what I try to install I've done driver either get this notice or one that says please insert the CD, you have more.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A210 and all the other info if you need it to help me solve this problem.

    Can you please post the name of the exact model (A210-xxx) or model number of your laptop?

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks in advance

    You shouldn't t use graphics card ATI drivers because these drivers don't support the overheating GPU, and therefore installation fails.

    You must choose the GPU driver from the Toshiba page.
    This is a page of European driver of Toshiba;
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=EU

    Seems that your laptop supports a * ATI Radeon X 1400 * graphics chip.
    Many A100 were delivered with the same graphics card.
    Check what Satellite A100 European notebooks were equipped with this card and try to install the graphics driver.
