Satellite C660 - have a problem using memory stick 4 GB Ocz Rally2 Turbo

Hello

Came a cross this rolling strip [http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=217818 | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=217818]

Sorry my bad English,

So I have 4 GB Ocz Rally2 Turbo memory stick, and it will not rise in the computer. My other 1 GB Fujitsu Siemens and 32GB Verbatim USB sticks work.

It's brand new, portable 2 weeks of age. And there seems to be a problem in the hardware level.
Windows 7 64-bit.

Should I just send it to repair/money back guarantee?

Hi JoneK,

Have you tried this USB stick on another computer or laptop? The new USB is may be defective and so it doesn t work.

At the moment I doubt s a problem of your laptop because other USB keys work correctly.
At least, it might be a compatibility problem between the USB and the laptop but first test it on another computer.

  • Satellite Pro M70-137: can I use Memory Stick Pro Duo?

    I think to buy a new digital camera from Sony, witch uses Memory Stick Duo Pro. I'm not used to Sony memory cards, so I don't know if my Satellite Pro M70-137 of the 5-in-1 built in card reader can be used with Memory Stick Duo Pro. On Toshibas Web site, it says Memory Stick, Memory Stick Pro, but nothing on Memory Stick Duo Pro.

    Can we read/write Memory Stick Pro Duo with the build in the 5-in-1 card reader?

    Hello

    I found the info you can use Memory Stick Pro 256 MB to 1 GB on your device. I put t really know if you can use a Memory Stick Pro Duo. Check it please in the user manuals.

    If this is not the case, there are solution called Memory stick duo adapter. The example that you can find on http://www.pc-memory-upgrade.co.uk/memory/memory-stick-duo.asp

  • Satellite P200D - will not read the Memory Stick Pro duo adapter

    Kia Ora
    My Satellite P200 will not read my Memory Stick Pro Duo adapter, both brand Sony.

    I am running Vista Home Premium. SD cards are read OK.
    The adapter works fine in my PC running XP Home premium. I tried two cards different pro duo. Help, please!

    Hello

    I think you should consult your user manual because this type of card is not supported:
    + Memory Stick Duo/PRO Duo and Memory Stick adapter are not compatible with the multiple digital media card slot. Do not insert the Memory Stick Duo/PRO Duo into the slot. Data lost or damaged if you use one card other than those supported. +

  • Satellite P300 - how to insert a memory stick?

    Sorry my bad English, but I need help with my 5 in 1 card reader.

    In the manual of my Satellite P300 stand that I use:
    SD, SDHC, MMC, MEMORY STICK (PRO) cards and xD.

    I think, means 5 in 1 - is 1 slot for the whole of this map. is it wrong? My laptop have 1 location for these cards.

    I have no problem to insert an SD card in, but a MEMORY STICK card is a smaller format.
    Is there a special adapter? What do I insert the MEMORY STICK in this machine slot?

    THX

    Hello!

    Yes, 5 to 1 means that, in this card reader, you can use these 5 different memory cards.

    I n t have a memory stick but normally it of pretty easy to insert. In my opinion, not useful to insert the card in the middle of the slot. But be careful and do not force.
    Check it!

    Furthermore, memory stick duo/Pro duo are not compatible. Make sure that normal memory.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • New Installation of Windows 10 using Memory Stick

    Installed Windows 10 of a download of Microsoft with the iso installed on a memory stick with training camp. After you have created a Bootcamp partition I couldn't install Windows on Bootcamp partition due to an error message 'GPT Partition Style'. Reformatting of the Windows installation screen did not help. The solution came as a surprise. I was start from the windows 'disc' when I should have used the IEF 'drive '. After starting the EFI, reformatting of the Bootcamp partition disk worked and the installation went well, with the exception of the Setup screen was too small to read easily. Fortunately, I was familiar with the installation of the failure of the previous installation screens.

    Windows 10 works fine now. The link below is what led me to a solution.

    http://code-zest.blogspot.com/2015/02/Windows-8-install-GPT-partition-style.html

    Your MAC supports two installation methods, inherited from the BIOS/MBR (used for XP, Vista, W7) and EFI/GPT (W8 +, W10). The first method requires a hybrid MBR to 'map' the GPT to a MBR-look-alike. EFI/GPT boots are 'native' and faster than the legacy method.

  • Satellite A100 - how to remove the Memory Stick Pro DUO card slot

    Hey,.

    I really need help with how to remove my Memory Stick Pro DUO card slot.

    The laptop read the stick very well and I can see all the files into it but I can't seem to get out. I tried to push a little to get out, but it does not work and it's also pretty far in so I can't get out.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Thank you

    Hello

    To my knowledge there is no extra help for Memory Stick Pro DUO removing as on the PCMCIA port.
    You should try to get him out. If you n t manage to pull him out with you fingers, you can use a pair of tweezers.
    But be careful.

  • 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.

    More info: all the recovery disk for Toshiba Europe, models of laptops can be ordered here:

    Y at - it an update, or maybe a solution via USB-adapter?

    I put t have Memory Stick Pro Duo cards, but I looked in the user manual and the card reader supports SD/MS/MS Pro/MMC/cards xD and it looks like that the MS Duo Pro cards are not supported.

    I think you need to use an external card reader. I bought a Kingston external card reader and it works fine.

  • 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.
