• Try to update the graphics driver for Satellite C660-1LD

  Hi all

  So I'm trying to update my graphics driver on a satellite C660 1LD, and I'm going nowhere quickly.

  The current driver I have is version 8.15.10.2622
  Site Web from Toshiba offers the 8.15.10.2189 version which I'm inclined to believe this is an older than my current version?

  I tried downloading the new version on the Intel site but it does not work either and I can't really figure out what the new version of the site. Can anyone offer advice on how to achieve this?

  The trouble is that I've lived this process for more than a year to fix a bug on civilization 5. I remember that it is a bit of a headache then. The most annoying is that I don't remember the process that I had to pass by to do. DOH!

  Thanks in advance

  Hello

  In General, you should only use the drivers from Toshiba. Why? The drivers offered on the Toshiba support page are tested and adapted to work with the s portable equipment. Of course, you can use the GPU manufacturers support page drivers, but you should know that most recent drivers will increase performance GPU. More performance means more heat and also some risk for material.

  Result can be suddenly stopped downs or even damage the hardware.
  In any case, I hope that you are satisfied with the performance of the GPU with your latest driver so I don't understand why you want to update the current version. Be happy that everything works well with this version of driver is not supported.

  In any case, I m you know that everything you do is at your own risk you can do with your computer laptop all you want. I found an interesting article that can help you.

• Re: Satellite C660-1LD - Touchpad no longer works

  Hello

  I'm having this problem because more than a month now, the touchpad works all of a sudden and it starts to work after a reboot, and sometimes after a few reboots.

  The frequency of this issue is at least twice an hour. I'm really tired to restart all the time.
  I tried the system restore, but that did not help and the function keys do not work or the other.

  Details:
  Model: SATELLITE C660-1LD
  OS: Windows 7-64 bit
  : Warranty 03/2013

  > I tried the system restore, but that did not help

  What exactly do you mean by restoring the system?

  Have you used the Toshiba Recovery DVD or Toshiba HDD Recovery procedure to restore the laptop to factory settings?
  In the case where you don't who has not tried, I recommend doing that!

  The fact is that this recovery procedure should solve the problems of system/software and in my opinion, it looks more like a software like a hardware problem.

• Satellite C660-1LD - I want to add 4 GB of RAM

  Hello!

  My model is Satellite C660-1LD.
  I want to add 4 GB of RAM to my laptop.

  There are now 4 GB RAM DDR3 *(1066MHZ) * on my laptop.
  I can add, or is it better to add 4 GB RAM DDR3 to the second slot with *(1333MHZ) *?

  And how often my computer will work? (1066 mhz or 1333 mhz).
  As better RAM to add (brand, frequency) you think?

  Also the RAM I found is not buffered, does that mean?

  Thank you!

  > Can I add, or is it better to add 4 GB RAM DDR3 to the second slot with *(1333MHZ) *?
  It depends on your chipset.
  If your chipset supports 1333 Mhz RAM then works with maximum performance, otherwise it would be clocked up to 1066 Mhz.

  Hello

  OpenGL is a standard specification and an interface for applications that produce 2D and 3D computer graphics. OpenGL is open source.
  There is also another standard called DirectX. This is from Microsoft and most graphic drivers media and contains the DirectX instead of OpenGL.

  How to get the OpenGL?
  Well, the OpenGL must be part of the graphics card driver, so you have to find a driver already include the OpenGL as shown here:
  http://www.OpenGL.org/wiki/Getting_Started

  Satellite C660-1LD seems to be equipped with a graphics Intel HM55 HD card.
  That's why I recommend the Intel page for these drivers.

• Re: Satellite L300-PSLB8E works super slow on Windows XP

  I have a Satellite L300-PSLB8E. It came with Vista Home Premium. After I did my recovery DVD, I did a SATA drivers downloaded from the Toshiba site. I did the F6 thing but kept getting always a bluescreen when the installation program got the 'starting Windows' I passed the SATA AHCI in BIOS compatibility and then managed to install XP without the SATA drive. What is strange, it's the sound LAGS and disk access is super slow. I ran a speed test program and he showed that the performance of the HARD disk are only 5% of the performance in Vista. I actually tested it on another laptop the same which was decommissioned and it had the same problem. Any advice? What is the AHCI Mode?

  > I had the SATA AHCI in BIOS compatibility and then managed to install XP without SATA drive

  This is the reason why your L300 runs slowly using Win XP.
  You have set the SATA in compatibility mode and now the HARD drive is not able to use the SATA performance.

  Your laptop would be faster using mode SATA and SATA drivers.

• Re: Satellite C660 new but very slow

  Hello

  As indicated in my username, I am not very good with these things. I bought the c660 a month ago and I can't believe the slow, it is, it takes forever to open a document and the Internet absolutely takes forever to open the same homepage.

  I tried to disable add ons and I have only stored excel sheet and about 20 photos on the computer of his car, so I don't understand why it is like that, to be honest, it was like this from day one!

  Please can someone tell me what I can do to fix the problem?
  Thanks a lot :)

• Satellite C660-1ZM is very slow

  I recently fixed my laptop to its original state, so, nothing had been installed to this topic, it seems very slow, because it crashes or stuggles to load on several basic programs, sometimes it loads fine other times it just hangs, I installed several drivers in the list of Toshiba, but always remains the same.

  Any advice?
  Thank you

  Aaron

  What are the core programs for you?
  What exactly happens?

  I think you which is your laptop quite slow. Preinstalled operating system must be configured correctly.
  You must remove all the unnecessary stuff system, configure the startup option to avoid the long start-up and have better performance of the laptop.

• Satellite A300 - connection Internet Super slow.

  Just bought this laptop... really disappointed.

  I used loads of drive recovery times and always slow speed of internet in WiFi and after a minute or two, it will disconnect and connect.

  My game is normal, internet speed around 480 MB/s and my office of parents also normal (both are wireless). But the only laptop toshiba 2.3 KB/s... WTF!

  Need help bad here, I have reinstalled the charges of pro/wireless intel driver time and still not good and reinstall loads the OS of the time and nada!

  Laptop model - PSAG0A - 06M00Q

  Hello

  First of all, you should test the speed of WLan connected only with the laptop to the internet. If other computers are connected then this might affect performance too.

  Then go to Device Manager and select WLan card properties.
  On the Advanced tab, you can modify and change some options that might improve the speed of WLan!

• Re: Satellite C660-1LD blue screen while trying to connect to internet

  I had a lot of trouble trying to get my laptop to connect to internet, when I was trying to solve it, the blue screen appeared and it stops, I didn't have enough time read all the information so I don't really know why it appeared. The laptop has rebooted and still cannot connect to our wireless network, I tried many restorations system that could not realize even though I tried it after I turned off my AVG protection.

  Finally he connected and I was able to go on the internet for a short period of time with a very temperamental connection, disconnect and then again after about 15 minutes, I fought so he can connect again, but when I finally made the connection seems well and does not drop.

  I stopped it and when I turned it back I had the same problem again, it wouldn't connect, the store could not solve the problem, although several times he has identified the problem as a "problem with the wireless adapter. I tried everything I could think of, more system restores, re - install the "network adapters" in the Device Manager, change the maximum power for the wireless adapter options and check the computer does not turn off the current record, remove all the wireless networks and then try to reconnect to their. After about 2 hours, I managed to get it to connect again after the restart it in safe mode and the connection is good now.

  But I'm afraid I'm having this issue whenever I turn my laptop to go on the internet. I am also very concerned about the "blue screen" which came, it happened yet and it was the first time I have ever seen one and I have been informed by friends that his pretty severe and is known as the 'blue screen of death '. I don't know if it's something to worry about or if it's just a stop? Is it possible that my laptop could have some kind of virus or bug? Or a possible hardware problem? Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

  I'm fairly certain that there is a problem with my laptop and not on the wireless network I can access the internet on my iPhone and internet works perfectly on all laptops of my roommate.

  Thank you

  Hello

  You should not worry BSOD. I guess that the reason was a software conflict.
  Are you using the original OS that you got with your laptop or your own installation of the OS?

  Have you noticed this problem with WIFI only?
  You can use LAN?
  Have you tried to test with another router and other WLAN?

• Satellite C660-1LD WIFI 5 GHz

  This laptop can receive the 802. 11A / n signals at the last 5 Ghz speed? The last Netgear N600 Dual Band router transmits network on this band/frequency signals but the laptop I bought recently can not see this network in the WiFi networks list.

  Hello

  Find a very interesting FAQ from Toshiba:

  + Can use the 5 GHz on the wireless network card in the standard WiFi "n". +
  http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/KB0/TSB0502VM0000R01.htm

  If you are maybe affected by this symptom, then your laptop is probably equipped with a WiFi (b/g/n) card.
  On the WiFi cards (b/g/n) that does not support the 'a' standard there is a high risk that they will not be able to transmit data in the 5 GHz band.
