• Satellite C660-28 d - problem "Load driver" with the new HARD drive

  I have a Toshiba Satellite C660-28 t.

  The hard drive has failed. I called Toshiba Support who send me a replacement.

  However in the meantime I was going to put in my spare hard drive and do a fresh install of another operating system that I have a spare for (Win 7) key.

  However, I can't past the screen "Loading Drivers" as the laptop came with driver disks.
  I can't find the drivers on the Toshiba site (I tried some drivers intel which I thought were good, but he says they were not signed and all comes down to the loading screen drivers).

  I have made the recovery discs, but obviously can not use them on the new hard drive as it doesn't have the recovery partition.

  Any ideas on where I can get the proper drivers from?

  Thank you

  > I made the recovery discs, but obviously can not use them on the new hard drive as it doesn't have the recovery partition.

  If you have a recovery disk using Toshiba preinstalled recovery media creator tool, you just have to boot from that disk to begin the installation.

• Satellite C660 - 2 EV crashed with BSOD and won't start

  My laptop Satellite C660 - 2 EV running Windows 7, without apparent reason crashed to blue screen of death, after which it would not restart.

  I tried to reboot in safe mode with the function keys, but it is the extent of loading: windows\system32\drivers/classpnp.sys and then just sitting there. Different Internet stations, it would appear that there is no definitive answer to this problem. It is recommended to recharge using recovery disks or hidden image.

  I can't access the user manual as it is on the laptop so I've referenced various positions on the internet. I had created for repair and recovery disks when I bought the laptop and so on to different positions, I started my system with the repair disk and the process began.

  Unfortunately, the screens that appeared were different from those in positions and as I don't have access to a manual, I don't know if I'm following the correct procedure.

  Can someone provide me with a PDF for a C660 laptop user manual - 2 EV?

  If someone can advise me how to reload Windows 7?

  Thank you in advance.

  S user guides document can be downloaded from http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_manuals.jsp
  Anyway, if you created the recovery disc please start your laptop and press f12 to get into the boot menu. When menu of startup appears on-screen set recovery disc 1 into the optical disk drive and choose the CD/DVD device as a boot device and press ENTER.

  Installation should start. What you need to do is just follow the menu on the screen. It should be similar as sown on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm

• Satellite C660 26 x - problem screen (gamma)

  Hello

  I have a problem with my Toshiba C660 26 X display. Since the first time I used it, the gamma seems to be high.

  This isn't a matter of brightness or contrast. The screen is just "too bright" and I lose a lot of contrast in bright colors.

  I tried to use the tool "calibrate the colors" of Windows 7, but even if I chose to lowest level of gamma, the screen stay too bright.

  The only way I found to solve this problem is to manually adjust the gamma in the nVidia control panel. BUT: I have to do this each time I restart the computer. (It seems that Windows wants to manage display settings, even if I set up the nVidia control panel to be the only tool who manage the gamma settings).

  So here are my questions:

  * How to solve this problem?

  * Is it possible to configure the display of directly at the level of the material (not through any kinds of software) to solve this problem? I mean just like you can adjust a laptop-screen by pressing the buttons.

  * Does anyone know how to force Windows to let the good nVidia control panel control display settings?

  Furthermore, I can't find your useful support. I had to search a lot to find out how to contact someone in your support. Now I have to write in a language other than my native language on an international forum, and I hope that someone will be able to help.

  Will I receive an email notification when an answer will be displayed? If not, please also send your answer to: [email protected]

  Hello Jay

  Satellite A200 is old model of laptop, and I can imagine that the fan cooling and air conditioning grill are full of dust.
  Before changing anything your laptop must be completely disassembled and cleaned. I did this several times in the past and I must say that my books were much quieter than before. After the cooling system will work properly and laptop will be able to take a breath.

  I put t know if you know someone who can help you with this. Please don't spend your money for new parts. At a first professional portable make cleaning.

  Please send comments.

• On Satellite C660-1J2 keyboard problems

  I have 2 laptops from Toshiba, type Satellite C660-1J2 used by 2 different people and we both have the same problem.
  The problem is with typing, many times it jumps a letter and sometimes a letter not to show, and then when you hit it again you get 2 letters and sometimes just get 2 letters to hit once.

  We tested it and it's a real big problem for us, because we use it for school...

  Help us please!

  Update the BIOS this will certainly solve!
  There are a lot of discussions on this issue and the update of the BIOS helped to address this problem.

  Two weeks ago I've updated my Satellite U940-103 and everything went well. There is no problem with WLAN. I use it all the time.

  What model of laptop do you have?
  Have you installed the driver for the Toshiba download page or driver provided by Windows update (sometimes classified as important update)?

• Satellite C660 - how to upgrade with the webcam internal?

  Hello!

  I just bought a satellite C660, however it did come with a webcam or a microphone, I need now.

  I note the slot above the screen that should accommodate a web cam - it is relatively easy to buy something to get into that and install it myself (I'm not very technical and is not a good range of tools)?

  Or, is it a reliable add-on camera / mic combination should I get?

  The camera lens is especially Skype videoconferencing. Might be interesting to make the recognition of faces too, but not absolutely necessary.

  Thank you!
  Chris

  Hello

  There are different models on the market with a different hardware configuration.
  Your laptop was released would accuse this cam.

  You can't pass this laptop with the internal webcam.

  I recommend that you buy a simple USB webcam, which can be connected to the USB port if necessary.

  Original pilot here on the TOSHIBA page... is too old... and mae AMD driver problem...

  Pls help me someone I can do...

  Hello

  > Original driver here on the TOSHIBA page... is too old... and mae AMD driver problem...

  I put t know how help you buddy the point is that the graphics card driver that is available on the page of the Toshiba driver is modified for mobile use and its recommended by Toshiba.
  Usually, you use this driver to make sure that the correct feature for laptop.

  Of course, you can try to use the other graphics card drivers, but in some cases, different version could lead to small different questions: in this case > problem with brightness control.

  However, you can try to install the graphics driver AMD/ATI driver Toshiba UE page but check the driver released for other series of laptop. You might get a more recent version of the driver.

  Brightness last but not the least similar problems could be value added Package update (for Win 7), but also the BIOS update (if available)

• Satellite P500-12D - a problem with the cooling system has been detected.

  Hi there everyone,

  I bought a Satellite P500-12D, which was a return of retail. When I start it up it runs a few minutes and then it appears on the screen:
  WARNING: A problem with the cooling system has been detected. Please, turn off computer immediately and return it for service.

  Follow the health of toshiba CPU is less than 50% temp and if it goes much higher that the cooling fan turns on and it lowers down and the fan stops again, I noticed that only the fan works r/h to cool the cpu, both should come together? What is a software problem?

  TThe unit is new without even the plastic off the surround screen or webcam. Any help or even point me in the right direction would be much appreciated, gary

  Hello

  Which program gives you this error message about the cooling system?

  Before contacting a service partner, as you can read in the error message, you must clean the cooling system using a jet of compressed air. Maybe dust blocking the fan or something else. Of more to clean up it of not necessary to disassemble.
  Here is an article on this topic: [how to clean a Toshiba laptop cooling system? | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/ann.jspa?annID=40]

• Satellite L555 - 11 L - problem with keyboard

  Hello!

  I have a keyboard problem with my SATELLITE L555 - 11L. I noticed the first week after I bought it, so I think he's always been there.

  Description of the problem:

  It's as if some characters were swallowed, fairly regularly. It is not a specific key, it can happen on any character, about all 20 characters. Sometimes, on the contrary, some letters are doubled.
  It happens when I write fast. And this isn't always but: when I just plugged in my computer, it works fine. It seems that this happens after having been plugged in for a while. But I was not able to assess this 'time '. Sometimes, it is quite short (2 hours).
  If I keep a key pressed (all), the characters do not commonly appear on-screen. There are regular "jerks" (each 20 characters? I can't really measure).
  This is a very annoying problem, it annoys me when I write an email, that I often...

  What I tried:

  -It happens in every text field (Notepad, in a text box in IE, Firefox and Chrome, in MSN, etc...)
  -I am on WIndows 7. I tried on a CD bootable Linux (Ubuntu), the same problem appears
  -J' tried to write with an external USB keyboard: I do not reproduce the problem
  -with or without battery: same problem
  -J' I updated my BIOS with the update that is available on your site web (from 2010.03.12 if I remember correctly), but it changed nothing.

  I wrote my problem in a forum format hardware. Only one seems to have the same problem as mine. He returned to his PC to Toshiba, they changed the keyboard, but the problem is still there.

  I would like to know if this is a known issue and if you have suggestions of everything I could try before you contact Toshiba and let my precious computer for several weeks... (with the risk that it may return to the same State :().

  Thanks in advance!

  Helen.

  Hello

  I read in some forums on the same keyboard problem.
  Some characters were not displayed when you type faster
  I read that an update of the BIOS has helped a lot of guys has disabled the touchpad too and this has improved the performance of keyboard

  So I recommend you try it.

• Satellite C660 2QH WLAN problem--loss of connection all the ~ 30 min

  Hello world

  I just bought a SAT C660 nine Toshiba and I faced a strange problem - I lose the internet connection every 30 minutes for about 3-5 minutes, then it connects all of a sudden again.

  I've been reading about the problem here and I fixed my power settings (although this also occurs when the laptop is plugged in), and I installed the new WLAN driver: 1005.19.0420.2011 (my Wireless LAN Adapter is: 8188CE). I thought that he that could have the problem in my anti-virus program, so I uninstalled. A few restarts later everything was as before - problem persists.

  Help, please!

  PS. I'm from Germany, where this is relevant.

  Hello

  Are you sure this isn't question of Wlan router?
  It would be interesting to know if you have the same problems with other devices connected to the Wlan.

  Next to the idea that this could be a router issue I think you should check some WLan Card settings.
  In the Wlan card-> properties-> tab Device Manager to disable the option to turn off the device to save power.

  You said that you have installed/updated test driver the driver from Realtek page too.

• Satellite C660-1TT - BIOS problems

  Hi all...

  I sat and would update the bios for my Toshiba Satellite C660-1TT (PSC1QE-01D006N5)

  Sloopy as I was, I left the computer to get a coffee, * obviously one of my children was there * and press a few buttons. This resulted in the computer 'frozen' after a while I was forced to turn off.

  Now change back the time and date each time I start the computer, and I can´t get the wifi to work.
  I tried to reinstall the bios again but then get the message that I already have the same or more recent bios and installation is complete.

  Someone who can tell if I wrong somehow the computer into thinking it is a newer version or the mabye bring in the former and then update?

  Grateful for any help! Robert

  (excuse my bad English)

  Hello

  To my knowledge it is not possible to downgrade the BIOS in windows mode, because you will always have a notification, this new version is already installed.
  To my knowledge the ASP technician Toshiba may downgrade the BIOS but only using the traditional version of BIOS (BACK).

  But I recommend to test this workaround solution.
  Shut down the laptop. Remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter.
  Now let the laptop disconnected for a longer period of time, I think about 3-4 hours
  Then plug the battery adapter and ac and access the BIOS by pressing F2 to turn on/off the unit.
  Here, you must set the default BIOS (F9) and save the changes.
  Now, start Notepad and check how it would work.

  Usually, the date and time resets because the CMOS battery is empty. But I can't imagine that this could be a problem here, however, you can reload the CMOS battery running the laptop on area for 18 to 20 hours. During this time the laptop must be ONE.

• Satellite A500-1HK: some problems with ECO Utility, touchpad, GPU

  Hi all!

  I am facing some problems with my laptop A500-1HK AND I would like to have your opinion!

  last month, the eco Utility application cannot be activated from the special keyboard of the botton at the bottom of the keyboard, although Ihear special sound because its touch botton (so it works fine). I can activate only in the start menu and then the botton in the keyboard touch would become green.

  At the top of the touchpad (mouse), there is a botton that enable / disable the touchpad. It works again.

  A few times when I'm working, the screen turns black and then after 5-7 seconds, that it becomes normal with a message that nvidia GeForce GT 330Μ had stop working but now works well! (is it something serious?)

  On the taskbar, there is an icon with a yellow exclamation point indicating the function that intel RST does not work. What is c?

  Keep in mind I have install all the drivers to the latest version, but nothing has changed! I have windows 7 64 bit GR

  Thanks in advance!

  Go to-> programs and features Control Panel
  Here are looking for ECO Utility and uninstall this software and restart the laptop

  Then visit the Toshiba UE driver page and look for the ECO utility.
  Download the software and reinstall it.

  > A few times when I'm working, the screen turns black and then after 5-7 seconds, it becomes normal with a message that nvidia GeForce GT 330? a work stoppage, but now works fine! (is it something serious?)

  The same as the ECO utility. Uninstall the screen / graphic card driver
  Download the latest driver from the Toshiba page and install it

  > To the task bar, there is an icon with a yellow exclamation point indicating the function that intel RST does not work. What is c?

  TSRI means Intel Rapid Storage Manager. It contains the SATA driver for SATA HDD controller.
  In case this does not work, reinstall it again.

• Satellite L50D-B-15Z problem with cooling system

  Hi, I have a laptop about a year ago. And for 5 months, I have a problem with the fans. Out and the following message is displayed:

  WARNING: A problem with the cooling system has been detected. Please turn off the power immediately and return it for service.

  The strange thing is that the first time that is spent stopped working a week, then a month and finally stopped working until 3 months there now will not start.
  I have even the implied warranty of the product, but I didn't think to send because it takes virtually every week for classes. I can use it, but if I perform actions that require superior performance as playing the games or download several videos at the same time to start warming up, getting the message and if continuous closed finally down.
  What should I do and how can I solve the problem?

  Sorry if I do not quite understand. I do not speak English.

  There may be dust stuck in the heat sink.

• Satellite P300D-14F - strange problem with an HDMI cable

  I have some problems with the HDMI on my P300D-14th:
  until yesterday everything worked perfectly, but now I can't watch video on my TV (Toshiba REGZA).
  TV's with black screen (when the laptop is off - screen is blue).
  Problem is not in the cable (I have 2, second I ve bought today).

  on TV, I have 2 HDMI, but neither first second step do not work...

  My OS is Windows 7, but I also have tryied on Ubuntu Live CD.

  I think the problem is HDMI on laptop, but I don't understand why it works in the BIOS...

  Hello

  This means that you can see the page of the BIOS on the TV?
  Have you tested the FN + F5 key combination once Windows has started?
