  In many cases the battery would support a preload more. This means that the adapter must be connected to a longer period of time in order to start the battery charge mode.
  Keep it connected for 2-4 hours

• 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 C660-2QN and new battery

  In fact, my Satellite C660-2QN battery wore out the other day (1 month out of warranty, typical!).
  I checked Toshiba replacements and decided to see if I could get a cheaper.

  I found on Amazon has announced a replacement battery for all satellites C660S, basically arrived today and I first noted it says on the back, it has been modeled for Satellite Pro.

  When I wanted to incorporate into my laptop, it was too big, even if my mother, who insists that it is correct, in force. It went well for a while until the battery supported, how I plugged it.

  However, the battery is not, or if this is the case, very slowly. He went from 6% to 12% in round one-and-a-half hours. So I pose the question, a battery Satellite Pro is a regular satellite C660?

  Otherwise, I'll continue to use my old space and stay on the current when it is used.

  Kind regards
  Ryan.

  How long does take to do the restore?

  Start your laptop and press F12 to get into the boot menu. When the boot menu appears on the screen, put the recovery DVD in the optical disc drive, choose the CD/DVD drive and press ENTER.

• Satellite C660 now does not connect to the printer via Bluetooth

  I have a very small domestic network - 2 of the Satellite C660 using Windows 7 Home premium and a printer Photosmart more connected through BT Home Hub work all fine until a computer laptop suddenly cannot connect with the printer, well located 1 m from each other.

  Connection Internet is fine - and another laptop works perfectly. Message from the printer on statement failed, on examination, it simply records as "error."

  Any ideas of solution?

  Hello

  From this point it's hard to say what's wrong.
  In my opinion, you must reset all settings and configure the connection to the printer again.
  Reinstall the software that you have installed in the past.
  Also recommend check that the support from the manufacturer printer pages a few FAQ, HowTo, etc...

  Since your laptop can connect to the internet properly, it cannot be a laptop problem

• Re: Satellite C660 - 1 M 0 - battery does not work long

  I have a new Satellite C660 - 1 M 0, and after using it for a week, the battery does not as long as compared to the first time that I used it.

  I heard that a charge of initial battery life of 8 hours is required before the 1st use. Is this true?

  Hi richardvdoran,

  The battery time depends on usage and what you do. For example if you run a large number of programs and work with a high CPU utilization low autonomy and requires AC adapter / CC soon. Also surf the Internet needs battery power.

  You can improve the battery life if you use the eco mode power plan. This will reduce the brightness and other things to improve the battery life.

  First battery charge time may be 8 hours but that's different and according to other things.

  Hello

  My laptop Satellite C660 series is just over a year.

  I plugged the adapter, but nothing happened.

  Does that mean that my battery is dead or the adapter is broken or worse still, my computer is dead.

  Thanks for any help.

  The * green * colour indicates the adapter CA is plugged everything in feeding correctly to the computer and the battery is fully charged

  The * orange * color indicates the adapter is plugged in and the battery is being charged

  The * indicator flashing Amber * indicates the battery charge is low. the adapter must be connected to the battery. Or it might indicate the problem with feeding

  * No light *-> under other conditions the indicator does not illuminate.

• Satellite C660 - no internet access via WLAN when powered by the battery.

  Hi guys,.

  Just bought a Toshiba Satellite C660 and went through the installation process and everything seemed simple and easy. However, this changed when I tried to use the laptop wireless. As long as I fed it with the AC adapter, all right. When I remove the adapter I lose the internet connection for about 3-5 minutes before it reconnects for about 1 min. Then, he constantly repeats the cycle.

  I have a strong signal that shows as "Connected" to my wireless network in the network and sharing Center, but get the message "no internet access. I have another laptop and PS3 connected to my network wireless without any problem. I disabled them both where they do not interfere with the signal, but that made no difference. Therefore, I am sure that's not the router, the modem, or the wireless signal.

  I checked to see if my WLAN adapter needs an update to the driver, but it shows that I have already installed the latest drivers. I tried to change the power settings for the adapter wireless of "Maximum Performance" all this without success.

  In addition, it works fine on battery if plugged directly on the wireless router.

  Can anyone offer advice on how to fix it, before I return it to the store?

  Thank you

  Jason

• Satellite C660 - 25 c - how to calibrate the battery

  Hello

  First of all, I apologize for my bad English.

  I would like to know the procedure to calibrate the battery of my Satellite c660 - 25 c.

  Thank you

  Sincerely, romat1993

  It's pretty easy.

  To calibrate the battery, it of necessary to charge the battery until the battery indicator indicates that the battery is fully charged.
  Then, unplug the AC adapter and keep the battery discharge until it s completely empty.
  Then connect the power adapter and charge the battery again.

  This procedure should be repeated two, three times in the line.

• Should what battery I buy for Satellite C660?

  I find a lot of batteries online, but my main concern is that. My laptop is Satellite C660 - 1 M 0 (ps1ge-02901fgs).

  I find that the batteries that claim is for c660 but they reffer to as (PA3634U-1BAS), some reffer to as c660d and some reffer to as c660 (PA3634U-1BRS). I am comfused, a bit is not compatible?

  Thank you

  When you remove the original battery, you can see which part number there. In my opinion the best thing is to order the same model of battery. By using this part number, you can try to find an online store where you can order.

  On the market, you can find several batteries offered by some manufacturers of third party (without the Toshiba label thereon). These batteries are cheaper than original batteries by Toshiba. They might be good, but usually, they died very quickly.
  Last year, I ordered this battery for my old A300. The battery was OK, but I couldn't get it up properly. Battery was in place, but at the back, there was a sort of pressure and plastic was out of shape. In any case, it's your decision what to do.

  Compatible batteries for your portable Satellite have following reference numbers:
  PA3757U-1BRS
  PA3787U-1BRS
  PA3817U-1BRS
  PA3818U-1BRS
  PA3820U-1BRS

  Good luck

• Satellite C660 - AC adapter / CC load questions

  Hello

  Had some problems with my Satellite C660 charger. Seems to load to the top of the laptop and then decides that he is no longer connected to the electric network although it is plugged. When you pass this by continually.

  Is there a way to fix this or is the charger faulty or is it supposed to do this? My apologies if this isn't in the right section / a stupid problem.

  Thank you

  Hey Buddy,

  And what happens if you start your laptop with power adapter only? The laptop works properly without battery?

  At the moment it is not easy to say what it is because it might be all: battery, AC adapter, BIOS, dysfunction of the motherboard, etc.

  It would be good to know if everything works with AC adapter only. Also, check the Toshiba website if you can find a BIOS update for your model of C660 and update.

  Don t forget to start the update as an administrator only and disable the Antivirus software.

  Hi, through programs such as care or battery battery I see a Toshiba Satellite L850 * 48% battery wear * currently. I notice that a game, the battery runs out quickly, as the warm up by many things and often descalibra and behaves erratically.

  The laptop is a year old. Is it normal that the battery to wear so much in so little time?
  Would you accept a warranty or replacement of the battery may claim the wear caused by improper use?

  http://img690.imageshack.us/img690/6976/4f7k.jpg

  First, please note that the battery working time depends on the use of the laptop.
  Running applications heavy performance as a game would drain the battery very quickly. Why? Because parties such as GPU and CPU and cooling to highest performance and this modules needs power.
  Also using the laptop with higher brightness may drain the battery faster.

  You should also know that each battery would start to loose own performance after about 500 charge cycles. This is nothing unusual and happens to all batteries.

  In order to avoid or slow down this process, its recommended to calibrate the battery from time to time.
  Calibration of means of loading and unloading the battery fully.
  Charge the battery until it could be fully charged, then disconnect the power adapter and keep the battery discharge up to his completely empty. Repeat 2-3 times in the line.
