Satellite C660D-153 of reconstruction after failure or bad HD Windows 7 is installed

Having bought a new hard drive, installing Windows 7 Professional and all Toshiba drivers, relevant (which it turns out that you don't need a recovery disk for - fantastic) I went and sewed to the top myself because I have the product key is for home edition Premium, non-professional.

If I can take another disc of Windows 7 Home Premium, as I did not, between the two types of switching will be relatively simple? Anything else I should know?

I think that you need to do a clean install.
After that, you need to apply all the drivers and utilities.

But the fact is that the MS Windows 7 installation disc contains all versions of Win 7 different (etc. Ultimate, Home Premium) and the version you install depends on the product key. The only difference is that if it's 32-bit or 64-bit.

So if you were able to install Windows 7 Professional, you should also be able to install the Win 7 Home Premium using the same disk

  • Satellite C660D 15F - black screen after startup

    Satellite C660D 15F

    Hi guys,.

    I have a big problem with my laptop. When I started to-go from sleep - two days ago I heard the computer starts normally but the screen remains black. No mater how many times I tried to restart, the screen shows nothing, no message no picture. The normal operation of the side light remains on but the keyboard lights stay offshore. I can hear the computer normally (the fan etc..).

    I tried to hit SHIFT F8 start buttom on the first night, and the image was on the first attempt when I started the machine and everything seemed normal again! The next few days, I got a black screen once more and the case never worked again, no matter how many times I tried.

    Can someone help me please get out of this mess? Has anyone had a similar problem? How do solve you?

    My machine is now exactly four years.

    Thank you very much for your ideas! I really need to access some files on there!

    Hello

    Disconnect the power and remove the battery. After doing this press the power for 30 seconds about and try to reset your machine. Leave it for a while and try to start with power current only.

  • Satellite C660D (PSC1YE) black screen after BIOS update

    I tried to update my Bios on my Satellite C660D portable (psc1YE) last week (big mistake).

    Something went wrong during the update and now when I power on I just get a black screen (LEDS and fan).

    After reviewing, the conclusion is that I damaged the BIOS that must now be blind flashed.
    So I got the hand on a 512MB memory stick, formatted using FAT through windows XP and used Wincris to create a startup disk after you have added the file bios.rom (renamed Bios.wph) which I extracted the last update of the BIOS on the Toshiba site.

    My memory stick has three visible files on it, Phlash16.exe, bios.wph and minidos.
    I plug laptop with battery, DVD player and power disconnected to stick, and hold Fn + B re-connection cable cable, turn it on.

    The fan whirs at full speed, and the USB lights up and flashes then for a minute, as if being read. No matter how long I let on, the fan will continue whirring and the USB is on and when I unplug and put in still works a black screen.

    I tried different sticks, (up to 4 GB with FAT32 format), programs of different startup (for example, the HP utility) drive but still no luck.

    Can someone tell me what I do wrong? I tried to look for a newer version of Phlash16 just in case that was the problem, but can not find one any where (mine is version 2008)

    All advice would be greatly appreciated even if it's just to tell me that I'm wasting my time because the pc is not repairable.

    I can't tell you if you waste your time or not because I n know if the motherboard ROM module is OK or not

    In most cases, it should be possible to reflash the ROM module using the BIOS crisis disk but this disc is available to authorized Toshiba service technicians and as much as I know reflash this methods is not always the same

    However, in some cases it might be possible that the mobo could not be fixed by disk crisis, it would be the worst case

    I recommend you to contact a certified maintainer Toshiba to check guys would be able to use the crisis disk and could test whether its possible to reflash the module ROM
    Is it not would be not possible well in this case you would need new motherboard :(
    But lets hope do ' t you need...

  • Re: Satellite U300 - 153 (PSU30E) - updated after the BIOS, I can't install Vista

    I recently installed an update of the BIOS for the U300-153 from the Web from Toshiba website.
    Has been running Vista Ultimate at the time.

    From that moment I could not access my hard drive. Restart the BIOS upgrade, it would hang on to the Vista loading screen. I tried to reinstall Vista Ultimate, but it always freezes at the point "finish installation". Have not tried to install other operationg system.

    Help, please!

    Hello!

    Weird, but in my opinion, it looks like to what you have tried to install an incorrect BIOS for your laptop.
    Are you really sure that you have downloaded the BIOS for Satellite U300 PSU30E?

    In addition, I would try to load the default settings in the BIOS. Check it!

    Are you trying to reinstall Vista using Toshiba recovery disc or disc of Microsoft?

  • Satellite C660D-153 - replacement of the GPU

    I think I need to replace the video card on my laptop but thought I would check with you if there are other solutions. A few days ago, I was working on a document when an internal click under the keyboard led to a split screen and test color lines appearing on the monitor. Only led restart it happen again after the start-up phase.

    The screen now shows what looks like a staircase in the middle of the screen with imagesrushing tear down one side and static vertical coloured lines on the other.

    Any ideas, suggestions welcome.

    Replacement of the GPU is not possible.
    If the GPU is dead, the motherboard with the GPU must be replaced.

  • Satellite C660D-153 - HD Fried - Options for replacement

    I had a series of C for a little more than a year and a half now and have recently experienced freezing, blue screen and crashing issues. After a reboot, my computer would not recognize my HD for about 30 minutes and then will work very well. Now, it broke down again, windows starts not at all and I can't find a work around.

    It will not start and more safe, or allow me to "repair my computer" using the advanced boot. I tried booting from a disc of windows 7, but which results, like the others, with a black screen and a cursor and absolutely nothing else, not the guests of menu or anything like that.

    First of all can anyone think of a way to solve this problem, and second, if I need to get a new HD that probably research, how can I get it ready to use and begin to rebuild the rest of my life? (I have a Windows 7 Professional disc already)

    Before you begin to discuss your question just a point: is guaranteed still valid and may be possible to get the new HARD drive in the case of the warranty?

  • SP2 is unable to download after failure of computer with windows vista home premium

    My computer crashed and I restarted after the DELL factory settings is a Windows Vista Home Premium but I can't seem to download the SP2 so that I can get IE9. I have SP1, but when I try to download the SP2 it tells me to get SP1.

    Please do not mark a reply as the answer unless it responds to your question.

    It is what is in my previous answer to check what level of Service Pack you have installed.

  • Satellite C660D - Boot problems

    I had my Tosh for over a year now, so out of warranty, but should still work. Sometimes at the present time, the comp will freeze completely, which ensures a restart, but on re-booting, I get the familiar if please insert disc to start or select drive, the pxe rom error, check for errors of cables (something like that I don't remember the exact wording).

    After I left the computer off for the night, these problems seem to set and the computer starts normally. I first thought it would be a mistake to HD but which seems to work very well when it starts properly.

    Any suggestions as to what could be causing this?

    > I get the familiar please insert disc to start or select drive, the pxe rom error, check cables errors

    The PXE error message appears because the laptop is trying to boot from LAN.
    Why the laptop switches to LAN automatically?

    In most cases, the laptop can not find the bootable HARD disk system and this means that the HARD drive is malfunctioning it would also be an explanation for the issue of the gel
