• Satellite C660 - TouchPad freeze at startup

  Hi I'm new and this is my first post so please be gentle!

  I have a Satellite C660 with windows 7 purchased as a refurb factory it is my 1st laptop, I have a problem after startup, and everything loaded on my desktop, it seems that if I use my TouchPad too early it freezes, he did it since I bought it, but I thought it was me being not used to a touchpad and the "bloatware" to start is the only way I can get the pointer to move if I have a finger from the top to the bottom of line scrolling to the right of the TouchPad horizontally or diagonally, it moves very slowly until I can be open and close a browser window, the file or even the startup window, then it will then act as usual and do not freeze again for my entire session If I leave it for five minutes at the start, it works fine, sometimes it will freeze also out of standby or hibernation, but not always.

  OK, I thought maybe it was the necessary driver update I checked in Device Manager and it said it was working properly but that of course is when the pointer is as it should be, in the Device Manager if I pilot of the touchpad/driver/update and internet search it tells me I have the drivers updated If I choose to search for a driver on my computer/let pick me from a list of device drivers that I have the following:-

  Mouse Compatible PS/2
  Synaptics PS/2 Port Compatible TouchPad
  Synaptics PS/2 Port Compatible TouchPad
  Synaptics PS/2 Port TouchPad

  I should have all those showing? can someone with a file of similar specifications check that for me please?

  strange thing is that if I go to TouchPad properties via the taskbar, and then click driver all options except the driver Details are grayed out and done, I can open two windows of TouchPad properties from the device and the task bar manager and have them on the screen at the same time.

  Some things I should mention are a mouse in the usb works fine, I stopped a lot of the "bloatware" and would help the useless stuff running at startup, hoping that I have disabled the function of locking of the click on the TouchPad, sound as it needs to be "warmed up" to run correctly when running properly it works fine without problem as the laptop came pre installed and only Disc I have is the recovery one create you the initial Setup!
  Any help would be appreciated!

  Hello

  First of all, I don t think that this problem is related to the installed touchpad driver but if you wish, you can install the latest touchpad driver available from the European driver Toshiba.

  Visit the European driver Toshiba page and choose:
  Computer laptop Satellite Satellite C series Satellite C660 driver Touchpad

  Now you should get all the touchpad driver available for C660 series.
  I found the driver for the touchpad Synaptics for Win7 32 bit and 64 bit.
  The latest version seems to be v15.2.11.1

  I think you should go to Panel of-> Software
  Check here if Synaptics touchpad driver appear in the list of installed software.
  If so, uninstall the present.
  Then, download and install the Synaptics v15.2.11.1 driver

  The touchpad settings could be changed in Control Panel-> mouse-> tab advanced-> button Advanced.

• Satellite C660 - keyboard problem

  I have a problem with the keyboard on my Satellite c660 laptop, reference number: PSC1LE.
  The best way I can describe it is like a stuttering problem because it comes and go (very well for a few hours, then not for a short period).

  The problem is that, for reasons unknown to me, I continue to experience a problem where the A, N and Enter keys do not work when you press. Sometimes pressing the key several times (they they are not frozen) is simply the letter out, but I can not continue to press the time key to five or six to get a letter. Just to mention, I've not spilled anything on the keyboard.

  I did full virus and spyware scans but have found no problem.
  I have done tonight all the updates of windows available to me, but it does not appear to have done the trick.

  After the restart that follows the device updates all worked them for about 15 minutes, so that the same three keys stopped working again. On this occasion, it lasted only a few minutes, and now I'm writing this with the same keyboard.

  Note: I do not use the original keyboard. I changed the jury due to minor property damage, but he did private.
  However, this was done most of the year there and worked flawlessly since installation, until this new edition took place in recent weeks.

  If anyone has new recommendations or suggestions as to what can be the cause or solutions and then share it please.

  I think you'd understand that nobody is able to say why your keyboard malfunctioned.
  Only if the hardware of the laptop has been scanned/verified, it would be possible to say what's wrong here
  But as General, there is a good workaround solution to diagnose the problem.

  You could connect the external USB keyboard to the laptop and could check if the same problems with the mentioned buttons will occur.

  In case the external USB keyboard would work correctly, I think that your internal keyboard is the troublemaker in such a case, you will need to replace the keyboard once more.

• Satellite C660 - screen problem

  When my wife got off the plane a luggage handler helped pushing his mother in wheelchair and dragging one of the bags behind him allowing my wife to take care of the rest of the luggage. Unfortunately, the laptop that sat on that bag decided that he didn't like the ride, he jumped the bag and tried to get into the terminal under its own power from the battery.

  There is no visible damage to the laptop as it was inside the bag and no crack or anything on the screen. When turn on the laptop, the screen may remain empty, flicker or it shows the log on and office but instead of white to white, it displays a purple rose, only showing not ecru is affected. Other colors appear correctly although they look as if the display is set to 256 colors or the use of the wrong driver.

  I plugged an external monitor to it and that works very well with the color. If the computer laptop screen flickers a light tap at the back of it he still will get, but the color is not corrected. I think it may be just a loose connection or wire cut between the screen and the motherboard but don't know if the color change would be caused by the present.

  Satellite C660 (PSC1LA-00J001) looks brand new, but I don't think it would be useful to take to get fixed.

  Any ideas on what could be the problem?

  It took me 2 1/2 hours to post this same exact message because somewhere in there is profanity or inappropriate language. :(

  Hello

  On this virtual path, it is not possible to say with certainty what the problem is here. Your laptop must be disassembled and all should be checked. Graphics card seems to be OK, so it must be a problem with connectors, cable or with the screen itself.
  > Satellite C660 (PSC1LA-00J001) looks brand new, but I don't think it would be useful to take to get fixed.
  Why not? Same display exchange is not so problematic. Googling around you will find many online stores where you can order the new display, if necessary. Even on eBay you can get it at reasonable price.

  If you do not have experience with this kind of things I recommend you contact the closest to the Toshiba service provider or some independent IT service and ask for help. Check what options are available and how much you have to pay for the repair.

  Try removing the USB ports and hubs from Device Manager.
  Restart the device and wait Windows OS has reinstalled all USB controllers once more.

  If this is insufficient, the chipset driver update because driver chipset controls the USB controller.

  I have a Toshiba satellite 3000 PS300c and the touchpad doesn't seems to work but the pointer in the middle of the keyboard is always moving the mouse and when I tap on it, but the piece on the bottom isn't so I can right click or use the scroll wheel.

  I don't know since when you have this problem, but it will be interesting to know if the appliance has been dismantled, but if the unit is not building together on the right track, it is possible that the touchpad will not work properly.

• Satellite C650 - Touchpad problem

  Toshiba Satellite C650 - 13G PSC08E I found that the touchpad, wasn't work and left click did not work, tried all the fixes on the forum.

  Check the BIOS and update
  Function key, fine activated

  That all controlled parameters appear in order, so I assumed a defective left click button.
  I bought the new palmrest with touchpad and after exactly the same problem.

  I can get it to work as a left-handed mouse, right button works as the left should, all other functions are fine except not left click.

  Surely, I couldn't be pretty unlucky to have bought a palmrest with broken so left click button (it's new)

  Any help would be appreciated

  What I will say maybe you were simply no chance and you had installed another faulty touchpad module, but to be honest, it will be very strange

  In my case, the control panel? mouse? last tab (Setup button) contain additional options to control the touchpad features.

  My laptop uses the touchpad Alps and the Alps touchpad utility is installed.
  This tool provides additional parameters for touchpad left and right, click.
  I did not change these options, but of course it of possible to disable the left and right click in this area.

• Satellite A100 - Touchpad problem

  Hello

  Can anyone help?
  I have just brought an A100 and downloaded all the updates for my machine (with the exception of ME7).

  Since the updates, the mouse is eratically work, particuarly over the touchpad, my USB mouse works well. I changed the settings, I downloaded the latest version from the web site of Toshiba, I uninstalled and reloaded the software and the touchpad still does not work properly.

  Every so often the USB mouse wants to go to a different point on the screen without human intervention!

  I checked the IRQ, and there is no conflict of interest.

  I am running XP Media Center

  Any suggestions?

  Hello

  Maybe that sounds a little weird, but have you tried to reinstall your windows? I know, it's very annoying to reinstall an OS, but you said after the installation of your updates of your mouse/touchpad started acting like you described. With the reinstall (recovery), you can specify if your problem is just associated software.

• Satellite C660-26R - problems with the laptop performance

  Hello

  I bought a C660-26R for Christmas, and since I had some real problems, watch YouTube videos and download things such as itunes or soundcloud. I have a good connection speed but I can't watch a video over a few seconds and let the kids play games on miniclip for example will not work.

  I downloaded the latest version of adobe flash player, windows updates are up to date and my internet security is very good. But I don't know why, I've met so many problems. It takes forever to pay for purchases online as well.

  If anyone can give me any advice or solutions, it would be a real and simple, help the best.
  all the best

  On this virtual path, it is not possible to say what the problem is here and give some concrete tips what you can do about it.
  I would like to have your laptop in front of me, to see what is happening exactly and how your laptop reacts with different commands. In my opinion, it is just a means to understand all your problems.

  Please don t get me wrong, but I would highly recommend you to find someone who has a very good PC know-how and ask for help.

• Satellite C660 - close problem

  I have 2 questions here that can be linked.

  1. my laptop will not close but will sleep / hibernate etc. To remedy this, I have to perform a system restore. It will then stop completely, but then the problem reappears after about 3 separate connections.

  2. upgrade to Windows 7 service pack 1 is always fails due to an error code that indicates there is a problem with PIECES. I followed all the recommendations of MS to fix this, but it does not work.

  I did all the cleaning with anti virus and disk cleaning etc I can.

  All advice welcome thanks.

  What about new OS install
  Due to the fact that SP1 cannot be installed, I recommend doing this because I think that your system is doomed and this may affect the close option

  I think that its definitely worth a try.
