Satellite C660 - no Internet connection after updating BIOS

I am a novice user and have a Satellite C660 under warranty that I don't use for surfing the net and Ebay so I hope I can explain my problem!

Toshiba bulletin board said that the need to update BIOS, so I followed the instructions but since then I have no internet connection, and cannot restore the connection that I lost all help Toshiba Bulletin Board today lost and none of the programs to sort the problems work - e.g.set assistants etc. I did not yet create rescue disks, but if I try to create them now I'll be able to restore to factory settings?

Can someone tell me if it's a failure caused by the BIOS update or I would return laptop to John Lewis for repair? Thank you very much for reading this

Hey Buddy,

The default settings in the BIOS load after update? If this is not the case, go into the BIOS and load the default settings. You can enter the BIOS if you press F2 before Windows start and then press the F9 key to load defaults. Then save & exit the BIOS Setup.

You can access the Internet now?
You try to access the Internet with LAN or WLAN connection?

Also check device manager if all devices are recognized correctly.

> I did not yet create rescue disks, but if I try to create them now I'll be able to restore to factory settings?
You can create the Toshiba Recovery disk every time. Just launch the pre-installed Toshiba Recovery Media Creator and follow the instructions on the screen. You need just a few blank DVDs to create the discs. Disks contain a factory image of settings which can be restored each time and how many times you want to so with these disks, you are on the safe side ;)

  • Satellite C660-258 - Internet connection issues

    Recently, my laptop started to suffer serious problems when you try to connect to the internet.
    My download and upload slow to a crawl (only for laptop)

    Usually (according to speedtest.net) I get around a download about 4 but on my laptop it reaches maximum 0.09 dl.

    Whenever I restart my laptop it works kind of during about 10 minutes (I get about a 1 download), but then it slows down to a crawl.

    I confess that I am not the most tech savvy people so I only did the basics (turn it on and try again, other connections, reset the router, connect through a cable) but none of this has worked.

    Any help you could provide would be most welcome.

    Hello

    To be honest I don t understand your problem you have a problem with the internet connection is slow?

    Usually, this is not a problem or computer in the system but the problem with the connection provided by the internet provider (ISP).

    However, you compared the speed using LAN and WLan?
    Did you check the internet connection by using other WLan hotspots or other WiFi network?

  • Satellite A60: Problem of memory after update Bios V.1.9

    Hi all

    I've just updated my bios to version 1.9 last week. Previously, I've upgraded my RAM from 512 MB to 1.5 GB (P4 2.8 GHz., 40 GB HARD drive) and my phone worked perfectly with the old Bios and RAM. After the Bios Update to the new version, 1.9, my laptop does not accept the module of RAM upgrade, windows xp still shows the blue screen, and then restart.

    After upgrading RAM off, my laptop works again. I tried several ways to solve this problem as take the battery, then reinsert the RAM or even formatted my HARD drive and installed a new Windows XP, but it didn't work. So what can I do to make my laptop to accept the upgrade of RAM? How to solve this problem? For this reason I now intend to buy a new laptop, if the problem can not be solved since I simulate a program on this laptop, so it requires a lot of memory.

    Thank you very much in advance for your answer.

    [Edited by: admin]

    Hello

    I put t really know what is the problem with the new update of the BIOS. In my opinion, you should contact the after-sales Service of Toshiba partner in your country and explain to them the situation. If your new module memory is compatible with the unit you should tell you want to have the old version of the BIOS. As much I know as technicians for this.

    If they see that there is a problem with the BIOS update, I'm sure they will for free.

    Good luck!

  • Satellite A300 - pad touch dead after update BIOS 2.20

    Hello

    exact model is Satellite A300 PSAGCA-06M01N under Win XP.

    I had a problem with the webcam, and I read in the forum that it can be solved by a BIOS update. so, I advanced and downloaded the latest version of the BIOS on the site of toshiba, especially for my laptop model. It went quite well with no error.

    However when the computer restarts after that the BIOS updated my touchpad no longer works.
    I went to Device Manager and could still see the Synaptics touchpad device and it says "this device is functioning correctly. but its completely dead and will not respond with the 2 keys. before I updated the BIOS I never had any problems with it.

    I tried FN + F9, nothing helps. plugged in a USB mouse and it works without any problem. In fact, when I plugged in the mouse the synaptics software says "Deactivation of the key because of the external pointing device" for the device driver for the touchpad works.

    If I remove the mouse, it will say the touchpad is restored, but it still doesn't work. restarted several times and still the same problem. went into BIOS and chose "default" not still a no go.

    Can someone offer any advice or ideas please?
    I really need the touchpad for the way I use the laptop...

    Hello

    In many cases, the touchpad (pointing device) can be enabled and disabled in the BIOS.
    I think you should check if this option is available in BIOS and if so, check whether it should be enabled.

  • Satellite C50B freezes at startup after update BIOS to 5.10

    Hello
    I updated the BIOS of my Satellite C50 - B - 14 d (PSCMLE) to 5.10 (a final release early sept. 2015).
    The update succeeded, and the laptop runs as long as I do not install the drivers for the card WiFi (Atheros AR9485).
    If I try to install the driver (it does not matter which, those of the Toshiba website or those of the manufacturer, of), the laptop crashes before the end of the installer.
    Installing drivers from Device Manager makes the laptop freeze on when Windows starts (I tried 7, 8.1, and 10).
    Completely on the Windows logo screen it freezes, and I have to turn off it.

    In addition, the wired network adapter is not detected (it does not appear in Device Manager).
    The same question is described here (http://www.eightforums.com/general-s...ses-start.html), but no solution.

    Any suggestion? The BIOS may be downgraded? The BIOS update utility does not Flash an older version.

    Thank you!

    Hi indutry,

    I also have exactly the same problem since updating my BIOS to 5.10 with my Toshiba C50 - B - 14 d PSC MLE

    I have to start windows in safe mode without network to disable the Atheros AR9485 before restarting again in normal mode.
    I now have to use an external WiFi adapter as my LAN port is now also lack!

    Upset that the BIOS update has broken all my embedded network on the laptop.

    I tried to update the Atheros drivers to the latest version, but as soon as the device is turned on again the system crashes and we're back to square one.

    There is no solution that I can find other than turning off the unit and live without built in WiFi + LAN.

    I hope Toshiba can be remedied with a new BIOS update?

  • Satellite P500 - screen remains blank after updating BIOS 2.90

    I installed the new WOOD update through the station of service and after restart, the screen remains blank (out of service)?

    Any suggestions?

    Hello

    And on the external monitor you see a photo or not?

    In my opinion, something goes wrong during the update of the BIOS, and so the entire computer doesn t start anymore. All updates are pre-tested by Toshiba, so I doubt that only the screen isn't working anymore.

    You should try to remove the battery and unplug the AC adapter for an hour. Then install the battery and plug in the AC adapter. Make sure the battery is fully charged and then try to start your laptop.

    It's working now?

  • Re: Satellite A300 won't start after updating BIOS

    Today I was installing recommended THAT BIOS update 1.70 to 1.90. During installation, the mouse cursor disappeared and has no reaction to the keys on the keyboard. But there was a message DO NOT TURN OFF COMPUTER. So I waited for long (an hour?), but the update progress bar was always in the same place - as my computers are suspended.

    After a long time waiting without any response, I decided to reset the computer. Only way to do pressed turn on button for a few seconds.

    But after that turn it on again there is nothing visible on the screen, only the reaction of the computer is that bright development under tension is turned on and hard drive will blink every two seconds. What should do? Please help me! I have very important data on the hard drive at this moment! Can I reset the BIOS? I tried to yutm on the computer after you press ESC and F2 key, but no effect. I put the CD with the operating system, but no effect.

    Its possible that the BIOS chip is faulty, causing the update to the BIOS to fall down during the writing process.

    If you have tried reinstalling the RAM and removing the power for an hour, it is not great thing else you can do except send it to an ASP for warranty repair.

  • C55-A-100 satellite does not power down after update BIOS 1.30

    A week ago, the Toshiba software installed on my C55-A-100 Satellite suggested that I installed a new version of the BIOS to 1.3.

    Since installing it my Satellite will not turn off.
    If I close the lid the screen turns off but the laptop is running, if I open the lid nothing happens and I have to keep my finger on the power button to force it to close.

    The same thing happens if I press the power button to turn off, blank screen and it continues to run, then I have to force a shutdown by holding the power button pressed down. I also noticed that the satellite seems to take ages to power.

    Can anyone provide a solution or experienced the same problems.

    The Satellite is running win 8.1

    Thank you

    Ben

    Please change, as described on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB2B03EY0002R01.htm and try to proceed to a complete stop.
    It work correctly?

    Hello Sergio

  • Touchpad no longer works after update BIOS on Satellite A500-1GL

    Hello world

    I just bought my laptop Satellite A500-1GL today. I started at the top and plays a bit (nothing serious). The touchpad worked very well at the moment.

    Then I discovered this tool to update the material and the update of the BIOS that worked without any problems. After I restarted the laptop, BIOS, loaded the default values of the installation and recorded.
    After that Windows 7 (x 64) started the touchpad no longer works...

    I downloaded the driver here and installed again once, still does not. I went into the BIOS, disabled the touchpad (I thought that maybe it's a bug...) and started again. It still does not...

    I enabled it again in the BIOS, tried to push the function + F9, but it still does not... Finally, I used the recovery and installed a Windows 7 costs.
    But unfortunately it still doesn't.

    Now, I'm out of ideas, can anyone help?
    Is there a chance to get the older version of BIOS to downgrade it?

    Thanks in advance ;)

    Hello

    It seems strange that after update Bios touchpad no longer works.

    > Is there a chance to get the older version of BIOS to downgrade it?

    To be honest, I don't know where to find. In any case, do a search on Google. Perhaps, other users of the forum can give you a link to download.
    The downgrade of the Bios is riskier upgrade procedure. So, be careful the next time...
    Advice for the future; Do not touch the running system.

    Good luck!

  • I lost the internet connection after acceptance of your latest updates. How can I cancel the updates?

    I lost the internet connection after acceptance of your latest updates. How can I cancel the updates?

    Debbie

    How do you know that the loss of your internet connection has nothing to do with the Windows updates? You must find the reason for the loss of the connection.

    How do you connect? Is a wired or wireless with a modem or a router? If a router is the router shared with another computer and this computer can connect to the internet? You need to determine if the problem is a fault on your computer or a failure to connect to your internet access provider?

    What error messages are reported?

    Event Viewer reports

    1. normally, when an error occurs on your computer looking in Event Viewer should be your starting point to find a solution. More related system errors are recorded and get an exact copy of the relevant report is important. Unfortunately, is not easy to understand reports and most of the users computer need help with their interpretation. I have to say later interpretation.

    2 Event Viewer includes three main newspapers of Windows. Here's the Application, security, and system. For purposes of troubleshooting system is by far the most important.

    3. to access the system log, select Start, Control Panel, administrative tools, Event Viewer, in the list on the left of the window select Windows and the system logs. Place the cursor on the system, right click and select filter current log. Check the front of the error and click OK and see you only reports errors. Click the Date and time column header to sort. You may need to click a second time to see the last report above.

    4. a tip for posting copies of error reports! Run Event Viewer and double-click the error you want to copy. Select the Details tab and check the box in front of the XML view. Click the copy button to place a copy in the Clipboard and close Event Viewer. Now start your message and paste it into the body of the message. Make sure that it is the first dough right out of the event viewer.

    5. He cautioned against three types of reports, information, and reports errors. In most situations, it is the error reports that offer the best information but sometimes WARNING reports provide useful clues.

    6. all reports have stamps date and hour and when troubleshooting, it is important to focus on the latest reports. Reports of studies from the point when the computer is started, and then check if a similar report appeared in the previous session. If errors do not repeat investigation as to why they happen is wasted effort.

    7. in the individual reports the most important information is the event ID and Source such as these help when looking for help on the internet. The description is just as important and copy the exact text to use as search criteria greatly helps achieve better results when using Google. Not paraphrase descriptions when other people asking for help.

  • Satellite Pro A300 (PSAG9E) - after updating BIOS Windows will not start

    Restart went well after update BIOS and Windows XP logo appears loads for a few seconds then a beep and restart - last good known or start Windows normally same effect.
    Reboot back to start - this is a new laptop - using the BIOS of Toshiba s official download site.

    Quite annoyed to try to find a way to upgrade or downgrade the BIOS.
    Took battery and RAM to see if I can delete it?

    Any ideas anyone?

    I think you mean BIOS * update * and do not upgrade ;)
    An upgrade is not possible

    However, you can try to remove the battery and the AC adapter and wait an hour. After that, reconnect the battery and the AC adapter and try to start Windows.
    Moreover I would load the default settings in the BIOS before starting Windows.

    If it doesn't work, it seems that your ROM module needs to be reflashed. In this case an ASP can help you.
