Satellite C660D-1GD compatible processors

I am trying to improve a laptop Toshiba Satellite from one of my friends who said that the laptop is not just pull its weight when doing things like watching movies, etc.

I noticed that the CPU of the laptop is a 1.3 GHz dual-core chip AMD E-Series.
I also noticed that the chip has clocks shader Radeon on it even, is not as simple as any exchange it for a faster processor that runs on the same socket.

I was wondering if there is a list of compatible processors somewhere that I could use as a reference.

I think the chip that is in the laptop at the moment is an E300.
I did some research, and apparently there's an E450 CPU that works on the same 18 Watts and clocks 80 shader and other similar features, but the basic 1.6 GHz speed.

Before I try to purchase and enter a CPU like that, I want to assure you that it will work in the laptop and that there was not any better CPU should I use instead. Please notify.

Thanks in advance for the help.

See you soon
Adrian

Hello

Update CPU is always tricky because it didn't is not supported officially by any laptop manufacturer.
So you can do but just at your own risk.

The laptop supports the AMD A50M chipset and AFAIK C660D/C665D/Pro C660D series is based on a series of processor Dual Core/Quad Core with CPU core AMD Champlain.

With the Champlain core processors can be identified by CPU ID.
CPU de Champlain processors ID numbers are 100F53 and 100F63.

However, first you must make sure that chipset would support the new processor. If so, then there is still a question about BIOS support.
Unfortunately, there is no detail if BIOS would support the other processors, given that these improvements are not supported, so I see only one solution for you: you should test at your own risk

    Hello

    This notebook should be a little older. Am I wrong?
    There are not a lot of information when I try to google for this model of laptop.
    But I think I found what you are looking for :D

    The motherboard must be compatible with the CPU:

    Mobile Intel Celeron processor clocked at 1.6 GHz, 1.7 GHz, 1.8 GHz
    Processor speed: 1.6 GHz to 1.45V
    The processor bus speed: 133 MHz

    Mobile Intel Pentium 4-M 1.7 GHz processor, 1.8 GHz, 1.9 GHz, 2.0 GHz, 2.2 GHz with Enhanced Intel SpeedStep technology
    The processor bus speed: 400 MHz

    But you know, the faster processor will produce more heat and therefore the temperature rises. This could lead to overheating.

  • Drivers for Win XP Toshiba Satellite C660D - 13H

    Hello
    I have Satellite C660D - 13H and I just want to work with win XP but unfortunately I can't find the drivers for my model on the Toshiba site. It is possible for this model to work with XP? Because this processor is too weak to Win 7?
    Can someone help me?

    Thank you for the advice,
    S. Stoev

    Hello

    It seems that Win XP is not compatible with the Satellite C660D and that's why you can't find the drivers on Toshibas driver pages.
    But even if Win XP drivers are not available, you can install Win XP.
    But you need to find the XP drivers at your own hand.

    Here is a nice document how to determine the necessary drivers:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/Ann.jspa?annID=78

    You can also try some XP drivers out of other models of laptops as Satellite C650D

    But I recommend to use Win 7, since it is the best OS from Microsoft.
    The processor is not too low. Even my 6 years old notebook use Win 7. This OS, I installed and it works properly.

    As much as I know that is not a HDD compatibility list, but to find that good drive HARD should not be problematic. Question is: what is the reason for Exchange of HARD drive or upgrade?

    You need more capacity, or you want to use the faster HARD drive and increase the performance of s for laptop?
    Maybe you should think about SSD. For some basic info, check it please http://storage.toshiba.eu/cms/en/index.html

  • Re: Satellite C660D - 10 d - problems with updates of drivers

    Greetings from Greece

    We bought a toshiba Satellite C660D - 10 d. It came with windows7 64-bit.
    After the windows installation and updates of windows updates, that I entered toshiba for updating readers, some of them was not installed.

    Then, the internet was very slow so I did a Hijack this scan to see what is happening.
    I discovered that many services that had to do with system32 is missing files.

    So first, I can post a HJT log for you, so if possible you can explain why this happens and you drivers that I could not update the list?
    I have also another question to u... can you please tell me how to work the bluetooth on the system?
    I hope you understand my questions because my English are not so good,

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    If the automatic driver update didn't work properly, then try downloading the drivers only manually and try the update again.
    You can find all the drivers on the European driver Toshiba page.
    But why update drivers if laptop running ok? I think that it s is not necessary if you have no problems.

    > can u please tell me how to work the bluetooth on the system?
    This laptop is not compatible Bluetooth

  • Access to music on Satellite C660D-155 through smart TV etc.

    I'm supposed to be able to access all music/photos etc on my laptop via my smart Panasonic TV with Viera tools. Sometimes he will 'connect' and sometimes it won't.

    Expert John Lewis told me that I need a laptop with a processor i3/5/7. Is this correct? My son with a processor i3 laptop, certainly connects immediately.
    Can I change some settings on my Satellite C660D-155 to get more consistent results?

    I put t know how this works with Panasonic TV but I put t think it has something to do with the CPU inside. I think that the important thing is the way how it works. There is nothing else than the Viera networking. Much check you how this works exactly and what needs to be done to make it work properly.

    You need maybe to install additional software on the laptop Satellite and use it as a database server.
    What is it described in manuals s document user and Panasonic? What assumption of Panasonic on this subject?

    I put t had time to check how it works on the Panasonic devices. Maybe someone has the same TV Panasonic and can check how it works.

  • Satellite C660D-13 q - need drivers for Windows XP

    Hello

    A Toshiba Satellite C660D-13 q (PSC1YE).

    In the BIOS I changed the controller SATA from AHCI to Compatibility Mode to allow the installation of Windows XP. In AHCI mode during the installation, I am getting blue screen all the time.
    (Besides - is it possible to install Win XP on SATA control Mode switched on AHCI?)

    I installed Windows XP SP3 and I need drivers, especially for Bluetooth - I tried BT-stack - toshiba.zip of the file (after unpacking: v80012T_20110809_x32.exe size: 38 786 027 bites) of Toshiba server but it does not work.

    I can find drivers for Windows 7 (32 or 64 bit) - why Toshiba does not support Windows XP - some applications and games still does not work on Windows 7, and I guess that never will.

    Is there a necessary chipset/APU driver for this laptop because it is based on the new processor of merger, which combine the CPU and the GPU to a single processor architecture called an APU (AMD E-240 of CPU and GPU AMD HD 6310)?

    > I can find drivers for Windows 7 (32 or 64 bit) - why Toshiba does not support Windows XP
    Good question, but I m you know very well why.
    Offer Windows 7 Microsoft has set new standards for integrated hardware and, in general, your laptop is designed for Win7.

    Win XP is history and if you check other manufacturers of portable none of them offer full support driver for Windows XP Home edition. I highly recommend to forget WXP and use original Win7 preinstalled.
    Support for the old operating system is obviously not profitable and costs a lot of money so I put t think any laptop manufacturer will spend money for it.

  • Satellite A100-250: what processors are ok?

    Hello.
    I hope that everything is ok.
    I have Toshiba Satellite A100-250 model PSAA2E-03u030du and I want to improve it with a new processor. Which processors are ok for me?

    Hello

    I have bad news for you my friend.
    The upgrade of the computer laptop CPU is not very easy and especially not possible
    Why? For different reasons;

    If you want to swap the CPU you need to know
    -How to disassemble the laptop,
    -How to reprogram a new BIOS that corresponds to the CPU and the system configuration
    -How and what thermal grease to be applied to the CPU and cooling modules
    -How to change the table fan which is stored in the BIOS
    -etc.

    So, as you can see the upgrade of the CPU is a bit tricky it just different s as a CPU upgrade on desktop computers.
    In addition, no one will be able to tell if the laptop will run stable after the upgrade.
    Last but not least, you will lose the warranty!

    Believe me it s no need to replace the CPU because of all of these above mentioned risks and to be honest, you won't get any spectacular performance gain.

    But if you want to know which processors could be compatible, then check your chipset properties and research on the Intel page for details.
    You will find information on the compatible processors

  • Satellite C660D freezes & blue sceen

    Hello

    OK, so to start id like to say that I am not very computer illiterate. For spending a few days my Toshiba laptop keeps freezing randomly (I have to turn the power off using the power button / stop to resume using it) more I got this blue screen pop up 2 or 3 times. I also noticed that when I run the scan, or disk cleanup function on my Norton Anti Virus it freezes also. I've had the laptop for about 2 years now. More details on my laptop below:

    Name of the template - Satellite C660D
    Version of the OS - Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1 6.17601
    BIOS Verson - 1.30
    Processor: processor Dual-Core AMD Athlon (TM) II P340
    Physical memory - 3072 MB RAM
    64-bit operating system

    If anyone with knowledge on this subject could offer me some tips on what to do I would really appreciate it. IM debating whether or not to return laptop to factory settings - which I never tried before.

    Thank you

    Hello

    On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is. We put t know exact setup for laptop and way how you use it, but if you use it for 2 years with original maybe the best factory settings way to have good work and stabile new OS is to install image recovery even once.

    After doing this with the fact that you have perfectly clean OS configured operating system. After doing this, you just install Windows updates and everything will be OK again.

    To be honest original recovery image can also be optimized, but if you don t have many experiences with him don t do some experiments only. If a friend you have good pc knowledge he can help you with this.

    How to install the recovery image, which you can read on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm

    The problem - since a few years, I used a desktop computer and connected to the internet via modem wide empty tape and USB connection. Last week bought a Satellite C660D installed Windows 7 os provided and tried to connect with my modem, but failed miserably.

    I get the error message 651 but do not understand why.
    I use wired ethernet (because my friend does on their laptop) and tried the cable on their system, and it worked very well, so I don't think it's that.

    If someone is kind enough to explain what I do, I'll be able to keep this computer connected to the internet with usb and connect the laptop with an ethernet at the same time, so I can read the instructions while I go or I'll have to print the instructions and disconnect the Office before retrying the laptop? Yes, I'm dumb and I'm not even blonde, lol

    Thanks in advance for those who have the patience to try to help me.
