• Re: Satellite C660-125 DVD player can't read DVD

  Hi guys

  I have a C660-125 and its developed a problem with the DVD player. It can read CDs and burn fine CD, but it won't read or burn DVDs at all.

  I used a laser cleaner, I also googled firmware but can't find anything for her.

  Any ideas what is wrong with it?

  The model is TS-L633

  > I used a laser cleaner, I also googled firmware but can't find anything for her.

  I cleaned my alcohol BIZARRE or cotton tip laser lens and it worked like a charm. In your case worth a try too.

  In addition if an ODD firmware would be available, then you should find it on the European driver Toshiba page.
  I checked, but did not find a firmware for TS-L633 means that this firmware update is not necessary.

  But I found this Toshiba document:
  _ODD firmware update to solve problems with the Toshiba creator_ recovery CD
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB9C02RP0000R01.htm

  But beware: the document contains files different firmware for TS-L633 on different sides. If your ODD is not on the list, don t try update firmware for your ODD would harm to the use of the firmware is not compatible!

• Qosmio X 500 - 11U restarts when games & cooling system problem message

  Hello

  I have a Qosmio X 500 - 11U PQX33E, bought in the summer 2010. Since 2012 (1 month after the warranty ended) he started to do restarts without reason, but I gave much attention to it, as it happened rarely. However, after 1 year things are worse and I ended up having a cell phone game that I used only as a PC Web browser. From time to time, I blew the fans to clean... Finally, I decided to fix it.

  I gave it to a technician, he cleaned, replace the dough thermal CPU - GPU and replaced one of the fans who did not work properly.

  Still nothing has changed. I tested it again (by running windows experience rating), and it crashed as before.

  I made the big decision to go back to factory settings and I made a clear installation of all components of the system (including the stuff of all the toshiba).

  Restart again for the note windows. ... (the same thing happens when I run any high graphics games)

  I have flashed the bios to v2.90

  Restart again for the note windows. (the same thing happens when I run any high graphics games)

  In addition to the above, because I did the clean install of the system, I started to get the message ' WARNING: a problem with the cooling probe happened... return it for service.

  I can hear the fan is working but when I run the diagnostic tool for Toshiba, the CPU usage is at 50% and the fan to 0%, even in use high power (yes I changed both power settings)

  Any help would be much appreciated, because I really feel VERY bad after paying 2500 EUROs for a gaming computer I can not operate for its intended use.

  Thanks in advance

  However when I try to run all 3D graphics applications (and some flash feature facebook games) it blocks (auto-off)

  The laptop turns off automatically in order to avoid the damage hardware parts... which can occur due to a higher internal temperature...

  You mention that the fans do not work

  (use of fan is at 0% because my fans are now connected to the USB ports

  I suppose that the temperature rises and the laptop turns off because cooling fan use in 0%

  To me, it looks like a typical hardware malfunction and from my point of few service technician must verify and fix it... here in the forum, we can only talk and discuss possible solutions but finally the hardware problems should be fixed by engineers of the service...

• Satellite P300D - 12L - Pentecost of the cooling system problems

  I have a Toshiba P300D 12 L and I have problems whit the cooling system.

  Wich, cooling pad is recommended for this laptop.
  I don't know what type of cooling pad I could buy.

  Can u recommend one please?
  Thank you.

  Hello

  I assume you mean on the cooling module
  Well, each piece is created specially for each series laptop
  This means that you need a cooling module that is compatible and designed for the satellite P300D.

  All compatible parts can be ordered from local ASP (certified partner).

  Therefore, there is nothing to do to get in touch with a local service point and order the necessary parts

  Notes; disassembly of the laptop is tricky not easy as with desktop PC
  That is why the cooling modules should be replaced by a professional

• Satellite C660 - continues to enter the system repair

  Can someone help me?

  I have a Toshiba Satellite C660. Yesterday, it crashed. When it restarted, it went in the repair of the system and whenever I rebooted, it entered the system repair. Don't know if it is relivant but I get a windown come with drvload.exe back.

  So I did a factory restore hdd thinking this would clearly be the problem, but it didn't. Now I always get a repair system each time I do updates of mircosoft when I restart, more I can't hardly open programs like firefox, add and remove programs.

  I now use a check of HDD to see if I have bad sectors, have also scan mcfee which showed no virus.

  Any suggestions would be grateful because do not know what to try next.

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  > So I did a factory restore hdd thinking this would clearly be the problem, but it didn't.
  That would mean he s no malfunction of the software and the problem seems to be hardware related. HARD drive recovery can restore the original settings of the software box and they are pre-tested by Toshiba. So, theoretically, he could be sector failed HARD drive, RAM failure or something else

  > Now, I always get a repair system each time I do updates of mircosoft
  This would mean that the problem appears only after Windows update or I understand something wrong?

• Satellite C660 - update Intel HD graphics card problem

  Hello

  Sorry for my level of English, I'm French

  I have a problem without a solution with my Satellite C660 (for the moment, I hope!) I downloaded the software google sketchup 8, dedicated to the development of architecture, but it does not work, I still got a bug message advising that it is necessary to update the graphics card drivers (according to google support it seems that OPENGL functions must be implemented in the drivers of my laptop)

  So I downloaded the latest drivers available for the configuration I have (Intel HD graphics for pentium, 64-bit windows 7).

  the link (french site, that Intel is not currently available, it is a document of .exe)

  http://www.Touslesdrivers.com/php/Constructeurs/TELECHARGEMENT.php?v_code=37057&v_langue=FR

  I tried to update manually driver graphics card with Device Manager menu (graphics card > update drivers button > file.exe manual selection), but in the end, there is no update, I did that a very small message advising that windows has determined that the pilots are already updated.

  In fact there is no change on the drivers (always the same date of the 2010-07-28 drivers in the properties of the graphics card) and sketchup is still unemployed

  Any suggestions?

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  What C660-xxx you have exactly?

  If you have an Intel graphics card, you must download the driver directly on the Intel site.
  There you should find the last version of driver

• Satellite C660 - 1 M 0 encountered a problem and needs to restart

  Hello
  Today, when I turned on my laptop before it starts, I get a blue screen says:
  Your computer has encountered a problem and needs to restart. Collection of information.

  What is this problem for?
  My laptop is TOSHIBA Satellite C660 - 1 M 0 i3

  Is this a Windows problem?

  Here is a message I received in Windows7forums on this subject but I don't understand what he means, can understand you for me please? e

  * Re: Heeelp! Your computer ran into a problem! *

  These screens generally include a sentence in the screen "fallen on problems." Usually something like Violation of Watchdog DPC (Deferred procedural call) and are often associated with a bad driver and or a power saving state not supported (sleep, hybrid sleep, hibernate, etc.,)

  First of all, make sure that you have the latest drivers from your computer manufacturer and or the individual device manufacturer's Web site. Then consider whether this computer manufacturer includes any software that may be incompatible with Windows 8 CP or is somehow patented conflict with Windows 8 CP in energy saving power scheme options. You may need to experiment a little, maybe remove the proprietary tools or taste affecting your schema of high performance or even the options down or max.

  The overview of consumption is more or less a new frontier for everyone here to work through this kind of problem is going to be informative and beneficial for all who read your thread, so please keep us posted as to how you are progressing with your current number.

  Hello

  Blue screen of death (BSOD) may be caused by software or hardware problems.
  To know if it of really a software problem, you can try running a HARD drive recovery procedure which would fix the laptop back to factory settings.

  What is an option for you?
  If Yes, check this:

  Hello
  I have a SP6100 and it keeps giving me an error message about the cooling fan does not. Then he tells me to stop immediately and runs very slowly. The fan come on, but after three or four short bursts it stops and the message appears.
  Is it a mechanical problem with the fan? I took out the radiator and the fan, and it was clean and not sticky.
  What is a system problem? The BIOS has recently been updated.
  Should I just invest in a new cooling unit and if so where would I get one?

• Satellite C660-24F: win 10 BSOD - system thread exception unhandled

  I upgraded my Toshiba Satellite C660-24F to windows 10 pro. After the upgrade it restarts again and again showing the dead blue screen with the message
  SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED. (athwbx.sys). How can I get rid of this error?

  athwbx.sys which is mentioned in your message, belongs to the Atheros WLan driver...

  So, I think that the BSOD appeared because of compatibility problems between the Win 10 and driver Atheros...

  Possible solution:

  I think that deletion of the Atheros driver in Device Manager should help you to solve this...

  Please keep the device connected to the internet using LAN.

  So after uninstalling the Atheros WLan driver and you restarted the laptop, Win 10 should automatically find a driver compatible WLan to internet automatically...

• Satellite C660 fan error message - 18 c

  Hello. My laptop was working fine until today when I kept getting an error message, 'Warning' and reads as follows: "WARNING: a problem with the cooling system has been detected." (Next line) Please, turn off computer immediately and return it for service. »

  I turned off the laptop but I was wondering if it was possible that the fan may just need cleaning or something as I heard no problem. If I need to fix it, no one knows how much it would cost?

  We cannot discuss here on costs. It is country specific service and prices are different.
  The best you can do is contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help.

• Re: Satellite C660 - need software for keys FN for XP

  I bought the laptop Toshiba Satellite C660-a9k.
  I found all the drivers & configure Windows XP SP3.

  Can't find the FN keys software support for this model for XP.
  I tried common module + controls C650. It does not work.
  There is no package of added value for XP.

  Also the computer does not wake from sleep.

  Please advice.

  > I found all drivers & configure Windows XP SP3.
  Very interesting article. I found the support page for your model of laptop and when I click on drivers and choose WXP operating system almost nothing is listed.

  This model of laptop is not supported for WXP and configuration of Windows XP complete home edition will be very problematic.

• Satellite C660 PSC1JE - 8 GB RAM upgrade problems

  Fellow owners of Toshiba,

  I have a Satellite C660-PSC1JE-00Y00XHU with 3 GB RAM (1 + 2) I want to go to 8 GB.

  I went out and bought 2 x 4 GB, but so far no of the below those worked (the computer restarts or stop):
  http://www.Amazon.com/Kingston-Technology-1333MHz-KTT-S3BS-4G/DP/B00B2UWSD4
  http://www.Kingston.com/dataSheets/KVR16S11S8_4.PDF
  I was not to mix memories above, purchased two of each. Certainly, these operate at higher MHz and they aren't memories KIT, so that may be the issue.

  According to the specifications of the laptop (SEE attachment), I should be able to move to 8 GB.
  I found the following thread here, but it is not help me solve this problem: https://forum.toshiba.eu/showthread...RAM+memory+8gb

  I found my memories at Intel:
  http://www.Intel.com/content/www/us/en/platform-memory/DDR3-1333-n-ECC-SODIMM-validation-results.html?wapkw=m471b2873fhs
  Two of my memories have a value of 'B' in the R/C column, but what that means? I ask, it is because in the list, there are two 4 GB memory listed thus:
  M471B5273CH0-CH9
  M471B5273BH1-CH9
  But these memories have a 'F' in R/C column. Is that mean that they didn't work with the tested chipset?

  I found a KIT on amazon, where PSC1JE is registered: http://amzn.com/B00WAFGDTK
  But on the important information of the product section, only C655 notebooks are listed.

  Another thing I noticed, is that support for DDR3 frequency on my motherboard is only 533 MHz, but the memories that came with the laptop are 666,7 MHz. Does that mean I shouldn't buy same PC3-10600 memory, since it would not even capable of running at full speed?

  What I absolutely have to buy KIT or can I go out with two sticks of Samsung 4 GB?

  I am at a loss. Can someone point me in the direction of someone who can check what memory modules I need in order to have 8 GB in my notebook?

  Thank you
  David

• Satellite M40 - 244 sudden stop - cooling/temperature problem?

  Hello everyone!

  For about 1 week, my laptop M40-244 became unable to cool down! Then, of course, more often, it stops suddenly to avoid any damage. I am sure that this problem is triggered out of cooling, simply by touching the left side of the key board it is easy to feel the (high-temperature 8 -

  My QUESTION is: is it possible for me to avoid the repair?

  I'm in Shanghai, I can not expensive toll-free phone and surprisingly that I have not found in the Web from Toshiba site any way to contact a Toshiba support by e-mail (if someone knows a way, please tell me!)

  Because it's very curious: my laptop is '8-month-old', never this kind of problem to date, and Toshiba is well known for a good cooling system. Recently, my laptop did not shock. Would it be possible that the fan has suddenly stopped working well?

  I tried to "verify" my laptop, but the failed to install of Speedfan and Motherboard Monitor 5 seems unsuited to the M40 244 then he is totally unable to find any sensor Board! Now, I've seen in some forums and website the possibility of the "underclocking", or a way to 'reset' the BIOS fan, but, Wow!, I am not an expert! What it means? It is possible with a laptop computer, or it is only possible with a PC?

  Here go us! I can go to a store of Toshiba and I guarantee, but it is required to serve 1 week without my laptop so professionally, she is extremely boring for me!

  Sorry, I'm a little long and sorry for my English (I'm French!), but If someone KNOWS A WAY THAT ALLOWS ME TO SOLVE this COOLING PROBLEM BY MYSELF, please tell me!

  Thanks in advance,

  Fred

  Hi Fred

  Vacuuming, cleaning procedure is not bad and very easy, but be careful. But if it does not help you should contact Toshiba service partner.
  The fact is that your laptop is under warranty and if there is a serious problem with the cooling module and fans the service partner must check.

  If you click this link, you will find the list of the FSA from Toshiba:
  http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/Su/su_gaspLocator.jsp?PF=true

  In addition, you should check the settings in the energy saver because this Toshiba tool that controls the use of the CPU and cooling method.

  Good luck

• Satellite Pro A40: error message - cooling problems

  I have a Satellite Pro A40.
  I cleaned the cooling circuit (hose and cooling fan), after hearing a strange noise from the cooling fan.
  After cleaning the system, the error message "you have cooling shut down your computer and bring it to a service center" is displayed.
  The fan operates at a low level, but do not accelerate as usual after opening several applications.
  In this case, the error message is displayed and the system becomes extremely slow.

  Thanks in advance for your advice

  Concerning

  Hello

  sounds, something was wrong after cleaning. I recommend you to send your machine immediately to a service partner and let it check your machine because the laptop might have some serious hardware malfunction.

  Before you send your machine for them, I would check the cooling fan cable and attach, maybe this could remove the error message.

  If you need to find an ASP then click [HERE | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/generic_content.jsp?service=EU&ID=ASP_SUPPORT] and find one that is closest to your country.
