• Satellite C660 - 1 7 - installation newer Intel display driver

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite C660 - 1 7 Home Premium to Windows 7 64 bit running with processor Intel Core i3 [email protected] GHz and 4 GB of RAM. I use my computer laptop great graphics etc with Adobe CS5 and Corel Paint shop Pro Photo x 3 etc.

  After only 2 months, I received an alert HDD saying he would fail soon. Yes, under warranty 2 weeks ago Toshiba arranged for a retailer authorized to collect and replace the drive it HARD that they did. Since then I can't use my graphics software. Now, I remember when I got my laptop I've had the same problem and it had to do with my graphics/video card and OpenGL. My own laptop and Toshiba Site repeated that all drivers are up-to-date. But when I went on the Intel site, I found that the Intel HD graphics card was not up-to-date. As soon as I updated, I was able to use all of my graphics programs.

  The drivers installed without any problem at all. This time, although I gave a recovery to the garage to repair disc when my graphics software did not work. I went on the Intel site and once again there are more available updated drivers. However, when I try to install it says that I have now modified drivers from the manufacturer of the laptop and I have to go on the Toshiba site. Whatever it is, the drivers, I need aren't on the Toshiba site and I tried all possible ways I think to install those I want.
  Help, please!

  Programs open when I click on for example Paint shop pro x 3 but when I go to save a picture or change it crashes and 'unresponsive' and I have to use the Task Manager to end the process. I need the same drivers I had on my laptop before the HARD drive has been replaced but can t bring Intel as Toshiba seems to have given up on updates.

  Any help is welcome! Thanks in advance. John Scott

  Hi John,.

  The problem is that only the Toshiba drivers are pre-tested on your system. Install the other drivers happens on your own risk, because they are not tested by Toshiba.

  In any case, simply download the drivers on the Intel Web site. If the setup.exe file display you an error about incompatible drivers install them manually (I know that this message from my laptop). So go to Device Manager > right click on the graphic card > driver update. Then, choose the Advanced installation where you can choose the directory and the driver yourself. You are now able to install this driver :)

• 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!

  Hello

  Whenever I have start browsing my laptop satellite c660 11 k there will be a kind of noise (hard to explain but beep like noise using come from older printers or fax machines) from my hard drive.

  Audible only when there is pin drop silence in the room. When the laptop was new there was no noise and later he started to come when I open windows navigation 4-5 and the sound comes now even if I start browsing. My hard drive is defective?

  Please can someone advice me on this.

  Hello

  My HARD drive sometimes creates similar sounds.
  I'm not quite sure about this sound but I save data always because some time ago one of my hard drives is dead and I could lose all my data so I would not have some backups created in the past of m

  I recommend doing the same thing
  Who knows what s wrong with the HARD drive, but I know with certainty that sooner or later all hard disks will die

  Hello

  Can you please write a little bit more kill your issue? Since when you noticed this problem? What did you do last time? Maybe installed WXP and now the HARD drive is not visible for the BIOS or does not appear when you use F12 at startup?

  Please write a little more. I don't think that the service can't do anything.

• Satellite U300-PSU30E - how to fix disk HARD runing Vista

  Is it possible to fix the HARD disk if the repair of Vista does not work?

  At startup, I can choose the repair of the system, but there is no HARD disk driver.
  Vista does not start.

  The strange thing is that Linux can access the HARD disk. The re-partition and the boot partition seem to be OK, but the Vista partition is damaged.
  Linux application to use windows and give 'chkdsk /f' and 2 startup time.
  Nice, but I have no way to get to a working command prompt.

  Is there a way to access the BIOS settings?
  BIOS detects the HARD drive and displays its name and type (MK1637GSX).
  Just wondering if there is something wrong with the BIOS settings.

  The repair CD is not helping. He asks a HARD disk driver.
  With the CD, access to the boot partition and the WinRE partition works, but accessing the partition Vista doesn't.
  Sometimes I find myself in a bad score.
  Directory on the partition change Vista takes about 10 minutes (if it happens to succeed).

  I managed to find the disk.inf on the Vista partition once, but after a long installation there is a popup saying that nothing could be installed.

  I doubt that there could be something wrong with BIOS, you can access the BIOS by pressing F2.
  But if Linux is bootable, then everything is OK with the BIOS and HARD disk
  I think that only Vista partition and master boot record may be defective.

  > Repair CD does not help. He asks a HARD disk driver.
  I think that you need to install the SATA drive in order to recognize the HARD drive.
  The SATA drivers should be part of the Robson package which is on the European driver Toshiba page.
  Maybe then you could get access to HARD drive and running a chkdsk /F

  I think that your laptop is not the recovery of HARD drive partition.
  Only the most recent models of laptops that are not delivered with the recovery disc supports this feature.

  -J' got a retail version of Windows 7 32 bit Home Premium
  -J' downloaded from the Toshiba site all the new SW (drivers, etc) for Windows-7-32
  -I'll do a 'clean' for Win - 7 install

  * Question # 1
  After that the installation of Win - 7 is completed, which is precisely the correct sequence to install the drivers and the other SW from Toshiba?

  If this is not the case, how do you know what is the correct order?

  * Question # 3.*
  I found the tsi4win7.exe program on the site
  http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/downloadDetail.jsp?PF=true&soID=2475695
  The name is Toshiba Software Installer for Windows 7.

  Help me please...

  After the launch of the upgrade of the bios on the win7 pc is off due to overheating...

  Now the computer does not start, black screen, but the lights and the fan on

  I followed a lot of posts to create a usb pen to recover the BIOS but I couldn't find the correct procedure and I don't know if where to find the correct bios for my laptop

  Can you give me a hand with a step by step guide?
  TNX

  In the worst case you will need to contact the Toshiba authorised service provider in order to solve this problem.

  To my knowledge, a special crisis disk BIOS is required for reflashing the EMPRO module.
  Some people were abele to create this disc using a few 3rd party apps but it wasn't always so I guess you have to contact service engineer has set.

• Satellite Pro A200: RIS installation fails - BSOD

  Hello

  Someone has already tried to use RIS for laptops Satellite Pro A200 ETA-1 image. I'm getting a BSOD which I think is due to a bad driver (downloaded from the Toshiba site).

  Also, can someone tell me where I can find a telephone number for technical support (UK), they seem reluctant to make available on their web site.

  Concerning
  Paul

  Hello

  satellite Pro A200 has the controller Intel AHCI-build. It is not included in Windows XP. You will get a bluescreen 0x0000007B proving that XP cannot identify the controller and has no driver for it.
  Here is a brief description of how add that driver to your RIS installation:

  1 copy all the single files from the Storage Manager Intel ICH - 8 M 32 - Bit floppy in your directory$ $oem $ \Textmode.
  If this directory exists you must change your txtsetup.oem file and add/extract the AHCI driver of the file txtsetup.oem of the F6 floppy in it (do not overwrite the txtsetup.oem file in this case!).
  If this directory does not exist, you can use the supplied txtsetup.oem file numodified.
  Download the floppy F6 Storage Manager here: http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/stormng-20070827133046.zip

  2. change your Winnt.sif file (or what you named your answer file) and add or change the following sections:

  [MassStorageDrivers]
  "Intel(r) 82801HEM/HBM SATA AHCI Controller (Mobile ICH8M-E/M)" = oem

  [OEMBootFiles]
  iaAhci.cat
  iaAhci.inf

  Hello

  The laptop seems to be equipped with a combo of Atheros Wlan card. This combo card also supports BT connectivity.
  But before install you the BT stack you must install first the filter of Bluetooth driver Package that can be downloaded from the European driver Toshiba page.
  This very important.

  By the way: you are right. There is no switch to turn on the WLan. You must use the FN + F8 to activate / disable the WiFi or BT
