• Satellite C660 - 10 d Operating System not found PXE - E61: Media test failure

  I have a Satellite C660 - 10 d, which is part of the 1 year warranty which has suddenly decided it won't start and makes a strange noise that sounds mechanical.

  I tried the options F2 & F11 at startup, but I always return to the same messages some options I try:

  Realtek PCIe FE Family Controller v1.23 (28/07/10)
  PXE - E61: Media test failure, check cable of
  PXE - M0F: Exit PXE ROM
  Operating system not found.

  I can't go beyond that and get the laptop doesn't work, which leads to my second problem.

  It is under warranty so I thought I would sign in for repair. The serial number is recognized in the section Product Support My. But when I try to enter in the repair section, it is said

  ERROR: serial not valid number.
  Please check and try again.
  Then gives a number to call which only works weekdays.

  So, I have what appears to be a broken laptop that I can currently connect to repair.
  If you are able to help with one of these problems, it would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  I'm quite sure that the problem is related to the defective HARD drive.
  This would also explain the mechanical noise when starting.

  PXE - E61: Media test failure appears as the laptop attempts to boot from LAN.
  Why? Because the disk HARD could not be found and the CD/DVD drive does not contain a startup disk.

  So the BIOS switched to LAN

  This is why replacement of HARD drive should help you with this problem.
  If the warranty is valid, get in touch with a local ASP in your country. Maybe you could get a HARD disk which could be replaced easily

• Problem restoring system on Satellite C660-115

  Hi all

  Satellite C660-115 my niece has a problem and I want to make it usable for its Christmas.

  Turning on the power of the computer, which gives as a result the message: * can not find the operating system ', so I tried the system restore by pressing first the 0 key and after numerous tests, changing the order of the boot and the other (with F2 or F12)... ". But there was nothing.

  From there on, I realized that I couldn't go any further without original recovery DVD from Toshiba. So I ordered last Saturday and got today Thursday. After as indicated by Toshiba (boot sequence starts on the CD player), the system begins to load (Windows is loading files...) offer the available languages on a beautiful table, and then choose window .dropoff...

  So, until then, everything seemed to be going as it should, is that by clicking on the 'next' button to validate my choice of language, only an error message appears in a dialog box named RecoGUI:
  ERROR:. _INFO IOCTL_GET_DISK_LENGTH------------PHYSICALDRIVE0 the device is not ready.
  When I press OK, then it's in French:
  Hard drive # 0 is not available or bad RAID configuration!

  I still press OK (I have too much choice) and then submit the next window restoration which requires me to validate the language of the operating system to install... French (Windows Win 7)
  and the States: the current size of the restoration is: Expert Mode

  Yet once I click OK and a warning box tells me that: all hard drives will be completely erased. Do you want to continue?

  OK... and cmd prompt appears who says (in brief)
  Looking for the car not mounted V: V drive...
  Ckecking to the C: drive... C: disassembled!
  ending with: ERROR files copy of database recovery failed.
  Press a key to continue (if I do, I find the Toshiba screen and invites another cmd telling;

  Waiting for WEIRD to become available...
  STRANGE D: drive ready.
  Check for support in drive D; ...
  Continue...
  DrvLoad: Successfully loaded X:------Windows \ inf-battery.inf.
  No RAID - continues normally...
  Installation in progress...
  Press any key to continue... and if I do, then placed below:

  X: \ Windows-system32 >

  That's where I stayed, because I always come back to the same thing.
  If anyone could be kind enough to help me solve this problem?
  Many thanks in advance...

• Satellite C660 - 115 Win7 update stuck in the loop. SOLVED!

  I have a Satellite C660-115 which is stuck in a loop "of despair".
  I am a COMPUTER engineer support and a customer brought this laptop of mine, who was stuck in a loop of repair Win7 (64-bit prem) that simply says Win7 could not be repaired.

  I backed up the profiles of subscribers using Hiren boot CD (done chkdsk as well - everything is OK), and then did a factory restore.
  No problem at all with the restoration.

  Started doing the updates for Win7; SP1 seems to install OK without errors.
  The system then picked up 37 Win7 updates automatically and asked to reset.
  Upon reboot, Win7 entered "drvload.exe" and started an auto repair.
  It took time and the system started OK, but without any sign of SP1, looks so much like system restore to an earlier point?

  I though this update to process 3 times now and each time after that a lot of auto update, the same sequence occurs.

  How to exit this loop? What is causing this problem, which I have never seen before?

  No software has been installed, other than that of the recovery process.
  I even uninstalled McAfee, just in case this could be a problem - no change.

  Ah, just took another look. It is stated in Win7 system registers that the restoration was caused by a corrupted file C:\ci.dll. Google to find it was a sign by a rootkit virus in the HARD Master Boot Record disk (the file ci.dll itself is NOT damaged). Found a fix tool

  http://support.Kaspersky.com/viruses/solutions?QID=208280684

  It identified the rootkit and removed.
  Seems to be OK now!

  Hope this post could help others.
  Of course, the factory restore does not erase the HDD MBR rootkit...

  Thanks for sharing!

• Satellite C660 - 115 WLan connection only works when the power cable is connected

  Hello

  A few weeks ago, I bought a Satellite C660-115. I want to surf the internet anywhere in my house without any son/cables.
  On the first day, I had this problem: when I disconnect _power_ cable, the wireless connection will stop working.

  The Web page on my screen will always be there, but a new page loading is a problem.
  It is sometimes useful to recharge (by pressing F5), - sometimes not. It is always useful to "ip address of repair", but not for long.

  The only solution is to atach regardless of how much power the battery has still the power cord.
  When I do, it is no problem whith the connection at all.
  I went back to the store where I bought it, they related to their own wireless network and they have had the same problem after a few minutes. In the shop too attach the power cable solved the problem.

  So the problem must be in my lap top, not in my network (modem or almost).

  Doesn't this all seem familiar, and if so, how can I solve this?

  I hope that my English is understandable, I live in Holland.
  Thanks in advance!

• Re: Satellite C660-115 very strange problems Wifi!

  I've been busy with a problem on a C660-115 wireless, always without success.

  Satellite C660-115
  Windows 7 - 64 bit

  The case:
  -Laptop is connected to the power supply: Wifi works fine, no problem
  -Laptop power supply disconnected: Wifi does not work, although there sometimes seems to be a link with the router access point/wifi.
  No internet/network communication
  -Laptop computer connected to power--> wifi works, unplug the power--> after a 1/2 minute or two, no internet connection...

  I tried to find a new driver, but we already use it the latest version.
  Then I turned off the feature "this computer can switch of this device to save power", without success.

  Ideas anyone?

• 32-bit operating system and 64-bit

  Hello

  Can someone explain the difference between the 32-bit operating system and 64-bit? I am running with 32-bit win7 but
  How about 64 - bit? Does it mean that 64-bit is more advanced? Thanks in advance.
  ;-)

  Klyde

  For starters, you cannot switch between bits or a slightly upgraded version to the other, it takes a clean install of the bit appropriate win7 version.

  On a win7 32-bit level basis can only use 4 GB of ram, 64-bit can use much more. Of course if your installed programs can use more ram is a separate issue.

  The majority of the programs is still 32-bit

  Nothing else google or Bing search

• Satellite A300D (PSAK0E) - this operating system?

  Hello!

  What operating system can I use the Satellite A300D (PSAK0E). I've tried and failed with windows 7 and windows vista ultimate. Y at - it any correction of the bios for these operating systems work? The problem is I get the blue screen and restarts when I get to step 2 :( I read somewhere on the forum, that this computer does not support windows 7 is it true?

  Direct them

  Should I just update the bios with http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/bios-20090226170008.zip and install Windows Vista Home premium?

  Hey Buddy,

  You will find Windows 7 drivers on the official website of Toshiba? If Yes, it s Windows 7 supported and you have no problem to get all the drivers. As you can see on the official website of Toshiba, Windows 7 32-bit is supported:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com

  BIOS update is not necessary to install another OS.

  > The problem is I get the blue screen and restarts when I get to step 2
  I think that in this case due missing SATA drivers. Just go in the BIOS and switch HDD AHCI mode to the Compatible and test it again.

  The BIOS recognize the drive? Check in the BIOS.

  You can start in safe mode?
  If you go into the advanced boot menu, select Repair my computer, and then select Toshiba Recovery option. This procedure reinstalls the operating system.

  This feature is only available with a preinstallation of Windows Vista. If you have Windows XP, you must use the CD.
