  Hello.

  Can someone please help with my laptop? Here's my laptop specs:
  Model: Toshiba Satellite C660-117
  Part number: PSCOLE-00Y00JEN
  Serial number: XA458343K

  I have just rewiped my laptop with Windows 7 Ultimate. I use the laptop on a wireless connection. In Device Manager, I have an exclamation mark next to the Ethernet controller. This prevents me from going online.

  Can someone direct me please the link to download some driver I need?

  Thank you much much in advance.

  Dennis.

  Hey Buddy,

  Controller driver Ethernet can be both: WLAN or LAN card. All the drivers and tools can be downloaded from the official website of Toshiba:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

  You have installed Windows 7 Ultimate, but may I ask why you haven t used the Toshiba with Windows 7 Home Premium recovery disc? On this disc are all the drivers and tools are installed because it s a picture of factory for you don t have stress with driver and installation tool.

• Satellite C660-117 - does not start, does not load

  Hello

  I have a laptop Satellite C660-117, and recently I had problems with the power with her. I found that it is capricious, when it comes to the charge, and recently I have if he had sat in one place that I knew would charge like that, she decided to carry the laptop elsewhere and because not able / load power since the battery down dry. I have not tried to reconnect where I had initially (and it is not really appropriate that she be sitting in one place, mainly because it is partially in the way of a desktop system).

  I tried various things, taking the battery and the AC adapter on, leaving for awhile, then connect their return and also to get out them, by pressing the power button for 30 seconds and in reconnecting him back, but the problem seems to be between the power adapter and the laptop itself (no power is going to the laptop of the sector). I also tried to use a different power adapter from another laptop, but it did not work either.

  I was wondering if there was another option that I could try, or if I'm stuck with having to buy another laptop, as it is waaaaaaaaaaaay out of warranty. I'd rather not go for this option, nor can really afford to send him off for a while to be repaired because of the time it would probably.

  Thanks in advance!

  If the laptop can't run with AC power only there is a problem with electronic power supply to the motherboard.
  Sorry, but these questions, you need professional help. Problem is that the remedy will be quite expensive.
  So perhaps the best solution for you is to sell it on ebay because several pieces of equipment can be used for replacement and buy new laptops.

• Satellite C660-117 crashed on the update of the BIOS

  A customer with a C660-117 has received a message from Tempro saying updating the BIOS. He did what he was told, but the update crashed in Block 8 and would go no further.

  Laptop will not start now. Y at - it a BIOS recovery tool or should he be returned to Toshiba to be fixed. Client not happy because it was Tempro who told him to put the BIOS updated.

  Any help much appreciated.

  Hello

  Generally, the BIOS update procedure is security.
  But some before performing a BIOS update, all applications and software as antivirus software, firewalls that work in the background should be closed.

  However, for as far as I know that BIOS flash ROM must be flashed/repair using a disc of crisis

  But if it wouldn't be useful, you need to contact a Toshiba ASP in your country for repair.

• Satellite C660-155 - no sound with headphones, fair speakers

  Sound still come from the speakers when the headset is connected. I've been through all the settings in the sound Manager and cannot find that anything related to the headphone jack.

  I've seen quite a few similar questions in regard to other laptops Toshiba, but none of the C660.

  Any ideas?

  Hi Doris,.

  You use the preinstalled version of Windows 7 in Toshiba or your own installation of Windows?

  Normally if you plug in headphones a window should appear and ask you for headphones or line out output. You see this window?

  If this isn't the case, I recommend reinstalling the audio driver. You can download the latest version of Toshiba's official website:

• Satellite C660 - TouchPad freeze at startup

  Hi I'm new and this is my first post so please be gentle!

  I have a Satellite C660 with windows 7 purchased as a refurb factory it is my 1st laptop, I have a problem after startup, and everything loaded on my desktop, it seems that if I use my TouchPad too early it freezes, he did it since I bought it, but I thought it was me being not used to a touchpad and the "bloatware" to start is the only way I can get the pointer to move if I have a finger from the top to the bottom of line scrolling to the right of the TouchPad horizontally or diagonally, it moves very slowly until I can be open and close a browser window, the file or even the startup window, then it will then act as usual and do not freeze again for my entire session If I leave it for five minutes at the start, it works fine, sometimes it will freeze also out of standby or hibernation, but not always.

  OK, I thought maybe it was the necessary driver update I checked in Device Manager and it said it was working properly but that of course is when the pointer is as it should be, in the Device Manager if I pilot of the touchpad/driver/update and internet search it tells me I have the drivers updated If I choose to search for a driver on my computer/let pick me from a list of device drivers that I have the following:-

  Mouse Compatible PS/2
  Synaptics PS/2 Port Compatible TouchPad
  Synaptics PS/2 Port Compatible TouchPad
  Synaptics PS/2 Port TouchPad

  I should have all those showing? can someone with a file of similar specifications check that for me please?

  strange thing is that if I go to TouchPad properties via the taskbar, and then click driver all options except the driver Details are grayed out and done, I can open two windows of TouchPad properties from the device and the task bar manager and have them on the screen at the same time.

  Some things I should mention are a mouse in the usb works fine, I stopped a lot of the "bloatware" and would help the useless stuff running at startup, hoping that I have disabled the function of locking of the click on the TouchPad, sound as it needs to be "warmed up" to run correctly when running properly it works fine without problem as the laptop came pre installed and only Disc I have is the recovery one create you the initial Setup!
  Any help would be appreciated!

  Hello

  First of all, I don t think that this problem is related to the installed touchpad driver but if you wish, you can install the latest touchpad driver available from the European driver Toshiba.

  Visit the European driver Toshiba page and choose:
  Computer laptop Satellite Satellite C series Satellite C660 driver Touchpad

  Now you should get all the touchpad driver available for C660 series.
  I found the driver for the touchpad Synaptics for Win7 32 bit and 64 bit.
  The latest version seems to be v15.2.11.1

  I think you should go to Panel of-> Software
  Check here if Synaptics touchpad driver appear in the list of installed software.
  If so, uninstall the present.
  Then, download and install the Synaptics v15.2.11.1 driver

  The touchpad settings could be changed in Control Panel-> mouse-> tab advanced-> button Advanced.

• Satellite C660 deploys continually tapping/knocking sound

  I recently bought a Satellite C660 and after that I turned it on, there is this continual sound plays. This is a second gap between each beat and it's really annoying. There seems not to be problems with all programs, diagnoses were clear showing no abnormalities.
  I've only had this top tour 4 weeks, I should send it to Toshiba for study?

  Thanks in advance!

  Hey,.

  This sound is perhaps just a Windows navigation sound you hear this noise if you cut the spakers too?

  If so, I would try to turn off all Windows sounds in the control panel.

• Satellite A500 - crackling sounds and blue screen

  Hey everybody.

  I bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite A500-19w about 4 days ago (today it is Sunday, March 7, 2010).

  I had the sounds of crackling of my speakers which have been mentioned so many times in the forums, no real solution.
  I also experienced the crash of the blue screen, that's already happened 7 times while I was not strongly using my newly buy laptop.
  I'm not looking for a repair or a replacement, because I find it quite unacceptable to have to think about the errors, faults & fixes as much as the laptop is brand new.

  What I want is a refund, but I'm not sure on how to do it.

  I know that Toshiba has some sort of refund policy, but if someone can tell me exactly how it works, because I want to get rid of my laptop as soon as possible (I will not buy any more portable Toshiba, especially since I had some similar problems with my Qosmio f30).
  If someone can give me some guidance, because I don't want to be mocked or used and cheated out of refund.
  I bought my Toshiba in the Middle East (perhaps refund policies are different here).
  Thank you.

  Hi mihran.

  If you want to pay off your laptop, you should talk with your computer store where you bought it. Only the can repay your laptop and not Toshiba directly.
  Of course it is also depending on the country where you life, but normally you can pay within 14 days I think. So in your case I speak with the seller or give them a call. They explain how to do this.

  But let me give you a little advice: regarding your problems with the crackling sound and blue screen I recommend that you contact an authorized service provider or ask a new A500 (this should be possible if you have only 4 days). Generally, I can say that a friend of mine has Satellite A500 and he is quite satisfied with her. This laptop has a great design equipped with new material for a good price. :)

  I got a Toshiba Satellite C660-115 Windows 7 and at startup I get the message ' gfxui works not ", can I ignore what my laptop seems to work ok.

  It is a problem with the GUI GUI Intel.
  You need to reinstall the Intel graphics driver.

• New laptop Satellite C50-A-1CK Fan make a static/crackling sound?

  I recently introduced a new laptop Satellite C50-A-1CK the December 8,.

  I didn't use the phone a lot.
  I noticed in the last days the fan made a static/crackling sound power, seems to come from the fan (on the upper right corner) when it turns.

  Is this normal?
  I think back to the retailer and asking for Exchange?

  Just for looking for some advice, much appreciated!

  Thank you.

  > Is this normal?

  No, this isn't a common behavior of laptop and I don t think that the sound or noise is normal.

  > I think back to the retailer and asking for Exchange?

  In my opinion it s certainly a good idea to check another unit and compare appearances of noise

• Satellite C660 freezes at startup

  Hey guys can help you with my laptop, Toshiba Satellite C660-17J. At startup, it freezes even though not all the time. By freezing, I mean I can move the mouse but not open anything and nothing on the task bar highlight. The only thing I can see different is that the (wireless) network icon does not appear. The last time he if but showed only the networks symbol search.

  If I turn the laptop using the power button and start in safe mode and then restart it works OK. Do you have any suggestions whats the cause?

  Maybe your system is confusing to the top?
  Did you test new OS install? Would certainly recommend that you test this before more detailed investigations.

  Are you able to perform HARD drive recovery?

• Satellite C660-2RC: need Win XP drivers for sound and graphics

  Hello Toshiba,

  How are you?
  I need Xp for the use of old softwarer for medical activity. (not compatible with Vista or Win7)

  I install Xp Home Sp2 but sound and vga drivers is the problem.

  Psc0QE-06p02UBY

  Satellite C660-2RC

  Thanks for you support!

  > Toshiba Hello, how are you?

  LOL :), it seems to be a forum for a user to buddy don t think you meet someone from Toshiba here.

  > I need Xp for the use of old softwarer for medical activity. (not compatible with Vista or Win7)
  Didn t you know that you can install the incompatible software in compatibility mode for Win XP?

  Here's a nice Microsoft documentation:
  http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/make-older-programs-run-in-this-version-of-Windows

  PS: You must first install for Win XP SP3 before installing the audio driver.
  The display driver is Intel. So there were also on the page of Intel graphics driver.
  But Toshiba driver European page contains two drivers too.

• Satellite Pro P100: horrible clicking, jerking and occasional crackling sound

  My machine is a beloved Satellite Pro P100 (with funky orange cover).
  My niggle, becoming a regular pub was the theme of mine, it's that play card Conexant High Definition Sound one clicking horrible, jerky and occasional crackling sound.

  I did the usual updates and the latest driver BIOS and installed equipment.
  No joy, still more trouble for the people of The Black Horse.

  Speakers, something overheating, loose screws and all the wrong cover color were advanced as the other sources of the problem.
  Even more fatigue, mental and even a suggestion I continue this conversation in the company of people who actually care!

  Anyway, here's my last.
  I don't get the problem when playback of .wmv files, for example, the bear fishing video sample that comes when you install Vista.

  MP3s and FLACs and sound just as WAVs scratched vinyl, but the bears fishing, nice and crispy...

  Hello!

  Have you tried external speakers on your laptop?
  It could be a hardware problem, but if you test other speakers you can determine if it s a sound card or a s question House speaker. Check it!

  And have you checked all the sound settings in Windows? Maybe you can find a setting wrong in equalizer or elsewhere.

  Have you tried to reinstall the notebook using the Toshiba Recovery disk? It contains the factory settings and you should try this before contacting an authorized service provider.

  Good bye
