• Satellite L655-11J - disabling Intel Turbo Boost Technology for heat

  My temp Satellite L655-11J used to be under full load of cpu 75 now, it's about 80 ~ 85 maybe because of the heat wave, I don't know

  I disabled the Intel Turbo Boost technology and its high value at full load is now about 68 ~ 69 and the laptop is not hot at all, and I did not notice a difference in performance, so you should try it if your laptop gets hot

  My question is there utility to disable through windows?

  > My question is there utility to disable through windows?

  Usually, this must be done in the BIOS.
  But as far as I know Toshiba offer a tool called Toshiba HWSetup located in all programs-> Toshiba.
  This software allows you to change some settings in the BIOS Windows System.

  I m not very good if you the Intel Turbo Boost Technology options are available in the HWSetup utility, but you can check it otherwise you will have to change the settings in the BIOS

• Re: Satellite L655 - very strange problem at startup

  Hello

  A problem with my Toshiba Satellite L655 of weirdo. Basically I even don't know how to explain it exactly.
  I write what actually happens...
  Almost any time when I turn on my computer by pressing the turning button as the computer begins to run and download, but all of a sudden after 7-8 seconds it crashes.
  I mean the computer is down and off. In addition, once he arrives there is little "BOOM" strange noise coming from the inside of the laptop.
  I don't know if the power supply (power cable) is related because it comes up with the cable connected and without.

  My laptop running Windows 7.
  I'm afraid that it didn't get injured because too many times, it crashes. I can't work with him:.
  I need this computer to be very good for my studies.
  I want to mention that I have keep the computer very well and performs updates.

  Please if you have any suggestions what can I do...

  Hello

  You know that on this virtual path, it is not easy to say why this is happening. Please test as follows:
  -start the laptop computer and enter the BIOS settings, leave it for a while and watch carefully what will happen
  -If nothing happens by default the BIOS settings and restart the notebook
  -after reboot, press F8 and try to start Notepad in safe mode.

• Re: Satellite L655-11J flash map F8 missing 8.1 Win

  First I searched on the internet I've read so many threads on this subject but none is regarding my problem.
  My wireless card is Broadcom 8.11n + + with ID PCI\VEN_14E4 & DEV_4727

  Is not supported by new PVAT flash cards which I had to install in Windows 8.1

  I noticed that in Windows 7 when I tried to install a new version of PVAT the F8 is missing,
  If I was stuck in an old version.

  I tied to add my ID wireless to the registry
  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\TOSHIBA\WirelessAPL\BT WLANDP
  as it is not listed with no luck

  I think the only way is to contact the PVAT developers and ask them to re - support my wireless again in a new version if they make one, as I badly need it disable Bluetooth wireless as well.
  Although I can turn the WIFI off but the light will stay on.
  I there is another way, can someone say I'm willing to try

  Thanks in advance

  > Is not supported by new PVAT flash cards which I had to install in Windows 8.1

  As far as I know the Satellite L655-11 isn t Win 8 taken in charge the laptop model and also 8.1 win is not supported too.

  It s are only not on this WINDOWS 8.1 - made MODELS page supported UPDATE
  http://www.Toshiba.EU/innovation/JSP/checkWindows8_1Compatible.do?service=EU

  This means that there is no 8 Win / Win 8.1 drivers for the L655 series.

  _Secondly_
  The VAP (value added package) isn't out to win 8 or 8.1 Win
  The VAP has been replaced by the system of Toshiba driver
  In addition to get the FN key works, the utility Toshiba function key to winning 8.1 must be installed.

  These two tools are needed to get the keys FN (also the F8 key) works correctly under Win 8 or 8.1 Win

• Satellite L655-11J - always-hard drive activity

  Toshiba please I need help

  The first round of my laptop, I entered my position, my name, and a password, I have install Toshiba updates and Windows 7 updates (notifications, I had), then I noticed that the hard drive is active all the time, and the laptop is very slow. I tried a lot of things to restore the original image of Toshiba built into the laptop and I finally did thinking maybe I did something wrong

  The hard drive remains always active (not sure what reading or writing) no monitoring for any activity very slow laptop and many search for sounds.

  any solution please, I had this problem the use first of it :(

  Hello

  You have other software or drivers after installing Windows 7 or that happen you directly after the installation of recovery of Windows 7?

  In your case I would try to disable some startup programs and if McAfee Antivirus is still installed, remove it and install another program like AntiVir antivirus.
  Then test again if you have still a lot of HARD drive activity.

  If so follow the instructions posted by Akuma.

• Satellite L655-11J: feuture request: turn off the light of the screen?

  It is more a request that it is:
  can add a key on the flashcard to the lights of the screen?
  Is it possible to do?

  and is it possible to turn off the lights (hard disks, power supply, lamps wireless, load) as on old laptops in the hardware configuration :)

  It requires more than a question

  Hello

  > is it possible to turn off the lights (hard disks, power supply, lamps wireless, load) as on old laptops in the hardware configuration

  I m 665 not owner, but in my U400 BIOS I could turn on and off the media lights using the option titled Illumination.

  > can add a touch on the flashcard to turn off the lights of the screen?
  > Is it possible to do?
  Don t think you can do that and who knows what software features would be available in the future

• Satellite L655-11j - issue of fan of Lola, fix it myself

  Hey, sorry for this thread, but I wanted to share my experience with you hope it helps someone someday, as I like Toshiba and I think that it the best :)

  NOTE, this is for my model only, you can have different bios and it will not work for you, so use at YOUR OWN RISK

  I was playing NFS rival as always all of a sudden my laptop off, the lights were off, and it won't turn.

  I unplugged he waited a while, plugged and it worked, except that the fan was working all the time @ average speed and if the laptop went to sleep mode, the fan does not at all, and an error message will appear Windows I have to take my laptop for repair because of the cooling (can not remember exactly the message)

  I tired a lot nothing worked I won't explain it will take some time, I was afraid to work on my laptop with the fan always on at average speed, doing it could damage the CPU or GPU.

  I re-flashed the BIOS again that solved my problem. now the fan is off, when there is some CPU or use GPU it will work at the 3 speed (low medium high) depends on the load and heat :)

  but to Flash my bios again there some tweak, first of all, I could not download new cause of the bios, don't show me no result in the download page (hope someone can help with the download page http://www.toshibamea.com/en/Download-Files of fixing).

  so I tried my old one I downloaded long ago, but it does not update because this is not a new version, so I extracted the exe using 7-zip, edited the file platform.ini flag from 1 to 0, I copy and you can read the explanation and execution of InsydeFlash.exe so re-flashed my bios and my fan works again :)

  [Bios_Version_Check]
  flag = 0

  ; This indicator is the Version of Bios checking switch. When the indicator is 1, utility will be
  ; check the Version of the Bios. If the rom Version file is older that the Bios utility will display warnning
  ; message and close the application. When the flag is 0, utility not to check the version of the rom file.
  ; When the indicator is 2, that depend on the BIOS report.

  Thank you very much for your interesting thread and share your experience with your Toshi.
  It's very nice that you take seriously and write clear words on the risk to do something like that.

  Good luck and happy new year. :)

• Satellite L655-11J - result of the memory of the Windows experience index

  The results are
  Processor: 6.9
  Memory RAM: 5.9
  Graphics: 6.7
  G game: 6.7
  Hard disk: 5.9 Toshiba mk5059GSXP

  The result of the memory is too low?

  Hey,.

  Why is the result of memory too low? The score is still good scores even other parts are better.

  In addition, the Windows experience index is not important in my opinion. You can see a few numbers at the end, but what to do with it? I don't see a reason to make such a test if I convinced and satisfied with my computer. Who care about these things other landmarks? ;)

• The use of the recovery on Satellite L655

  Hello.

  How do I use my Toshiba satellite l 655 recovery?

  Is there any topic explain that
  Thank you

  I assume you mean on the Windows 7 that are preinstalled on the Satellite L655.
  Am I wrong?

  In case you haven't changed anything on this default system, drive HARD recovery must be possible.
  In this case, I recommend check you this doc:
  [How to recover a Toshiba laptop with the recovery disk (Win 7) procedure | http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm]

  You can also use the Toshiba Recovery disk to recover the laptop.
  The recovery disc could be created using the Toshiba Recovery Media Creator software which is always pre-installed.

  PS: all the details of this are mentioned in the user manual as well as in different threads here in the forum!

• Satellite L655 - recover Toshiba Recovery option

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba Satellite L655 with Windows Home Premium 64-bit. I recently had problems with my operating system. Unfortunately, I didn't know about HARD drive recovery option, so I just reinstalled an OS with Windows 7 installation CD (I have a).

  Now I know about HARD drive recovery and I would get my system to it's State of origin "Toshiba", but there is nothing "Toshiba HDD recovery" more in the recovery menu (F8 at startup)

  I still have the folder HDDRecovery on my drive D:\ with od 7.5 GB data. But how can I get it back? What should I install to have the "Toshiba Recovery" point back again in the recovery environment?

  Thank you
  Ivan

  Hey Buddy,

  The Toshiba HDD Recovery feature is available on the preinstalled operating system. If you have installed another version he s not available anymore.

  So in your case, you have the Toshiba Recovery disk to restore to factory settings. Did you create the Toshiba Recovery disk before installing Windows 7?
  Usually this can be done with the box settings because the Toshiba recovery media creator is preinstalled. This means that you need some blank discs to create the recovery disk.

  If you don t have the recovery disc, you can order a new by clicking here:

  Hello

  Computers notebooks are specific products of these countries, and if you use original Toshiba recovery image that you got with your laptop keyboard language must be the right one, except that use you own BONES.

  In any case, the advice of the previous user, and change the keyboard input language.

• Satellite L655-1E3 keeps restarting in an infinite loop

  Hello

  It seems that I have installed an update of the BIOS not adapted to my Satellite L655 1E3. Now my laptop is never reach the Windows startup and keeps restarting in all about 3 seconds after the Toshiba screen display.

  What I tried to do is reinstall my Windows with the Windows CD: does not not when starting on the CD/DVD

  I still have access to my data located in the hard drive when I took it out of the laptop and makes a transfer on the other hard drive.

  Can you please help me and suggest me some ideas to do?

  > It seems that I have installed an update of the BIOS not adapted to my Satellite L655 1E3.

  I m wondering how could I know if you would try to update the BIOS to the version that is not compatible, the BIOS update procedure would be interrupted and it is not possible to Flash the ROM module
  That is why I think this might be the case.

  However, you said that you see the Toshiba start screen.
  Question: are you able to access the BIOS of the F2 keys?

  In the case where this is possible, the value of the default BIOS and try to start the machine again.
  Where this is not possible, remove the AC adapter and the battery.
  Press and hold the power button / stop along 30 sec. Then reconnect both sides and try to turn on the unit.

  Your comments and good luck would be appreciated

• Re: Wireless LAN network has disappeared on my Satellite L655

  Toshiba Satellite L655-1EM

  My computer is unable to find wireless networks. It was working fine the other day, but does not work when you connect today. I tried FN & F8 but does nothing.

  It does not show a wireless network card in Device Manager.

  I tried to restore to a point when he worked last and nothing happened.

  I even tried to download a driver later and it still does not work.

  I would appreciate any suggestions or advice on what happened and how I can solve this problem.

  Thank you.

  > It does not show a wireless network card in Device Manager.
  Which is really strange. Your laptop should have Realtek WLAN card inside.
  Some unknown device is listed in Device Manager?
