• Satellite C660-1GK - C HDD partition problem

  Hi all!

  I have the Toshiba Satellite C660-1GK for a year and a half. After 6 months, my hard drive is dead.

  First the laptop has been really slow, then started the famous clatter of the disc.
  I made backup and checked the disk with tools from Hirens. Toshiba diag will read even not she, Smart said that his State of health is bad bad sectors (30% or more), began to burst... I therefore took the laptop to my ASP.

  They replaced the disc and then 13 months later (a week ago) the same story! Disk health went even lower (was 11%) and bad sectors initially jumping like crazy.
  Once again, a trip to ASP.

  I have my laptop today with a new drive. After that reading posts on this forum, I'm afraid that there or card mother/problem of power or we're just all with no luck with readers.

  I just, I can't accept that the disks die randomly every 4-12 months to meet. My last drive on HP laptop lasted 4 years! I have about five more months of warranty and I'm really not satisfied with the situation. This laptop is on my desk, it has own station with nice, big fan so this isn't overheating - basically, I took out of the House in September.

  I'm careful with it! But if the disk dies before the end of the year, maybe it's time to get a new laptop.
  Toshiba no, this time :(

  Please, you have any ideas, advice... ?

  Hello

  A few years ago, I bought a laptop from another manufacturer.
  My first HARD drive died after over 2 years of use. I bought another, has replaced the old HDD and the new HARD drive died after 4 months of use.

  No matter which HARD drive is going to die sooner or later because his part instrumentation it s a question of HARD drive use and the question of how you handle all.

  In my opinion it s a bad luck of course sound always pity if a HARD drive starts to malfunction but I m afraid there are not many options to prevent it.
  Of course, you can switch to a SSD drive which is stable in use. I did a few months ago, I bought the 250 GB SSD drive and replaced the internal HARD drive

• Satellite C660 - 18 c HDD missing from BIOS

  I have a strange problem with a Satellite C660 - 18 c and I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions.

  This is the laptop from a friend who had crashed earlier. He seems to have tried to reinstall an operating system, although not using is not the recovery media, that he never did when the laptop was new. He has failed to do this, he asked me to take a look.

  The hard drive is still the original Toshiba drive came with the laptop, even if it has been removed and replaced. This allows to do some basic tests on the hard drive, which showed no errors.

  If you start the laptop from a USB key with a Windows 7 Pro installation image, you go as far as to choose a partition to install Windows on to. It shows 'Disk 0 unallocated space 232.9 GB'

  However, he pointed out that "Windows cannot be installed to this disk. This computer's hardware may not support booting to this disk. Ensure that the disk controller is enabled in the computer's BIOS menu. »

  I looked in the Bios and I see no trace of the hard drive. For example, if you look under 'Boot', this list shows only, CD/DVD, floppy, LAN and USB drive.

  It seems to make no difference if SATA is set to "AHCI" or "compatibility."

  Does anyone have any suggestions?

  Thank you

  Work generally good disk HARD must be listed in the BIOS (BIOS first page).
  You should see the name of the HARD disk and the size.

  If the first page of the BIOS provides no details on the HARD drive, then the HARD drive was not recognized by the BIOS, and in most cases, this means that the HARD drive is faulty.

  If you are sure 100% that this disc HARD isn't faulty (for example, it works in relation to another laptop), a HARD disk controller malfunction could cause the problem

  But I guess it's s a HARD drive problem

• Satellite C660-1PH - button keyboard blocked

  Hello

  I use my Satellite for like a year now and I am quite satisfied with its functionality, but the latter time the arrow up (Moving keys) he pasted a little when you click on it also making a noise that can be quite annoying after a while...

  I checked on the internet and I have found that videos of totally eliminating the keyboard of a C660.
  Can I remove a button and put it back, or I could even more damage?

  Please advice

  AFAIK, you can't repair simple buttons. What you can do is remove the keyboard cover and eventually clean the small plastic mechanism under the cap.
  Later, you can place key cap in the right position and press it gently downwards. When you hear the click the CAP should be in place again.

  If you try to do so, be careful and gently.

• Satellite C660 - 11 H - HDD light is not blinking and laptop extremely slow

  Hi, I recently started having problems with the laptop above, when you start the screen blocks on the screen 'windows', the HARD drive light does not work, either.
  The computer loads up thereafter, but is very slow.

  Please note that the laptop was recently withdrawn only from a relatively sho height - problems began shortly after.

  I think it might be the hard drive, Pls help.

  Thank you

  > I think it might be the hard drive, Pls help.
  I agree with you. It's probably HDD Hat doesn't work properly.
  Hard drives are cheap and you can exchange it alone then I recommend get you the new HARD drive, Exchange, install the original recovery image and test functionality.

  If you need assistance you are welcome.

• Satellite C660: HARD drive space shows only 20 GB of free?

  Toshiba Satellite c660 with 320 GB of disk space, it shows that 2 hard drives or 2 partitions, one called data shows only 20.6 GB of free on 148, but when I go in there I can only find at maximum approximately 50 GB even with all the backups?

  Hello

  There are more partitions on the HARD drive.
  You can see it in disk management.
  Right click on computer and select manage.
  Now you should be able to go to the disk management which will show you all the available partitions.

  A hidden partition is used for the Windows 7 backup files that are needed to fix the Windows 7 in the case where something goes wrong with the OS.
  Then, you can find a Windows partition and the other partition is used for HARD drive recovery. The point is that you are able to run the system recovery from the HARD drive without the use of the recovery disc (recover disk must be created using the recovery disc creator)

• Satellite C660 don't start from the HDDs or recovery

  Hi people,

  Post this question for my neighbor, as there is now no internet access as mobile does not not - Satellite C660 running Win7.

  In the event of power he gets the Toshiba screen then a white screen with the cursor at the top left flashing.

  Tried to boot from the DVD of Win7 (you press F12 for boot & changed options on DVD), can hear the reader tries to access the dvd but then get the message 'impossible '. DVD of Win7 works in my laptop and desktop pc computer.

  Any ideas.

  Thank you

  Nigel

  > When the power he gets the Toshiba screen then a white screen with the cursor at the top left flashing.

  Possibly the HARD drive died.
  That try you to the power of the unit and press F2
  Now you should be able to access the BIOS.

  If the disk HARD isn t appearing on the first page of the BIOS, this means that HDD isn't recognised by the BIOS, which means that the HARD drive is faulty.

• Driver Vista for Satellite C660 & using the free extended warranty EMEA code

  First of all thank you for taking the time to read this email and possibly to answer me.
  I encountered some problems when registering my Satellite and Toshiba Satellite A205-S5851 * Satellite C660.

  First computer bought in the United States, and then in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
  Unfortunately * Satellite C660 came without windows operating system.

  I have installed a licensed version of Vista Starter and now I'm having problems to install all the necessary drivers, because your web page supports only Windows 7 and XP.

  I recorded my warranty and offered a free warranty extension (no way to activate it), but when I tried searching for support for my model on your web page, but it doesn't 'recognize' serial number!

  I would be recognizing the assistance since it is my fourth Toshiba laptop and I want to be your customer.

  Best regards

  > I recorded my warranty and offered a free warranty extension (no way to activate it), but when I tried searching for support for my model on your web page, but it doesn't 'recognize' serial number!

  If you have a few problems with the registration, I recommend to check this page:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/JSP/vpoWarrantyRegHome.do?service=EU&LNG=null

  But are you sure you typed the correct serial number to 100%?
  Maybe you have mistyped the serial number or mixed with letters or numbers

• Satellite A215-S7422: free space on the HARD disk decreases every day

  Hello everyone,

  Hi I'm alex.

  I've owned a computer laptop "SATELLITE A215-S7422.
  I got 147 GB of my hard disk drive memory, I got 119 free space but as I noticed it is constantly down even if I do not download anything.

  When I saw this first I try to get it back to the factory setting and I had 128 GB of free space, and every day it is significantly down.

  Everything I do is look at you tube.

  Can someone explain to me what is happening and what I can do about it...

  It would be much appreciated.

  Thank you

  Hello

  There is a simple explanation why HARD disk space decreases each time while watching Youtube videos
  The video stream is always stored on the HARD drive in the internet files folder and in time.

  So from time to time, it would be desirable to remove these files and to clean the folder of files over time.
  I use the CCLeaner. It is free software and can be downloaded from different pages. Google simply
  This program is very useful. It cleans the HARD drive and removes the garbage all registry.

  You should test.

• Satellite C660 - Freez after boot - corrupt BIOS update 1.7

  The Satellite C660 had start-up problems: freezing screen after startup and very, very slow. Also a HARD drive recovery did not help.

  I tried an update of the Bios and loaded the downloadable file that at Toshiba (version 1.7). The Bios update has not completed and now the laptop does not at all.

  The warranty is void, I now buy a chip of bios in China and I'm looking for now the bios file.

  It's all them very disappointing and a large size of time and money.

  > The Bios update has not completed and now the laptop does not at all.
  That s it Plains really looks like the module ROM was not properly flashed.
  I think it's a problem with the hardware, since you had problems before the update of the BIOS.
  I think that affected the procedure for updating the BIOS.

  > As the warranty is cancelled, I now buy a chip of bios in China and I'm now looking for the bios file.
  Forget it mate ROM module cannot be replaced in most cases the module ROM must be flashed with a disc of crisis

  Would recommend asking a Toshiba ASP for help and reflash the BIOS using the disc of the crisis.
  This should not be very expensive

  Did you recently do disk cleanup?

  http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/76073-disk-cleanup.html

  The tutorial is really made up of 2 parts:

  From #1 to #11 on "ordinary" disk cleanup This will give you in disk space.
  #12 at the end is on more Options. It is mainly to erase all of your points except the most recent restoration. This will give bring you a ton of disk space. There is a downside to this. You have more 'old' restore p [stated to fall back until several restore points are created. So make sure that your computer works correctly before you use more Options.

  Another suggestion would be to install CCleaner.
  It's a free program and it will help you to remove unnecessary files and recover disk space.
  I use it regularly.
  Attention, do not touch the registry option.
