Satellite Pro C660-1LR keyboard problem, there type y7 and 7 types y7.

I plugged a USB keyboard and it works well. That means it's the internal keyboard hardware that is defective? How long is the warranty on these laptops?
I removed the Y key, and there is nothing stuck in the origin of the problem.

Yes, exactly
You need new keyboard
Ask Toshiba authorized service partner for a keyboard that you can also order a 2nd common hand keyboard from ebay or some online dealers

standard warranty is valid for 12 months long...

  • Satellite PRO C660 - 1LR Boot problem

    Had this laptop for a little less than 2 months, was in course of running really slow so I backed up my data and do a factory reset, during the reset of the machine restarts automatically several times. After about 6 reboots everything I got a black with a cursor screen (ctrl + alt + delete does not work), the cursor moves but nothing happens, I guess that something was wrong with the recovery so I id try again, only to find the menu F8 at boot is no longer list of computer repair. Ive tried to boot from a CD but when I press '0' and press F12 when prompted, nothing happens, I'll be just the screen windows mem test.

    Also, trying to get into the bios, I press F2 when prompted and the message very quickly becomes "HDD Recovery" then continues towards the screen of windows mem test.
    So im a bit stuck now, I tried to remove the power and battery all night, but that did not help either.

    Any suggestions how to get this working again?

    Hello

    You mean that you cannot access the BIOS?
    To access the BIOS, you will need to press F2, immediately after pressing the power button. You can press F2 repeatedly in the line to make sure it worked.

    > Ive tried to boot from a CD but when I press '0' and press F12 when prompted, nothing happens, I just go back to the screen of windows mem test.

    In order to boot from recovery disc, just press F12 (don t press the 0 key). This should allow the start on-screen menu. Then you may choose the CD/DVD drive as the boot source

    But this sounds like a hardware problem; I think memory or HARD drive problem so maybe that these two parts must be checked also.

    There is a nice tool called Drive Fitness Test that allows to test the HARD drive for errors

  • Satellite Pro C660-1LR - new HARD drive but no recovery disk

    I need help for my son who is the Satellite Pro C660 1LR laptop.

    In this portable hard drive is completely dead, I have not created a disk of recovery for this system of portable computers.
    I bought a new hard drive that is installed... However, as you guessed it I have no access to reinstall an OS, this laptop works on windows 7.

    I'm not really tech savvy so if someone can advise me please do explain to the fool proof format! I try to avoid having to buy something expensive.

    > I'm trying to avoid having to buy something expensive.
    Problem is that you don't have many options in this regard.
    If you want to have the factory again settings you must install recovery disc. You can order on https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx of course is not free, but, in my opinion, without a doubt the best solution.

    You can buy the Microsoft installation disc and install the clean version. You must purchase a valid license for it.
    In this case, you must install all the necessary drivers, tools and utilities for more than one by one.

    Just in case you can get this installation of Microsoft and the free license you can save money.

    Believe me, the best solution is the original recovery disk command.

    Hi, I am the owner of a laptop from the Satellite Pro L870-173.
    By writing an e-mail the keyboard functions has changed.
    Some keys have a different meaning, examples

    Space lab = o
    4 = o v4v4
    c = the optioo for a secodon display

    What can I do?
    Is originally a default keyboard?
    Do anyone have an idea?

    The system is a 6v4 - bit win8o
    The keyboard settings is always the same: German language

    Thank you very much!

    > Do someone has an idea?
    Yes, I have an idea.

    > Is originally a default keyboard?
    I m afraid, Yes.

    You can confirm my idea connection external USB keyboard to the laptop.
    In case your external keyboard would work correctly, the problem is definitely related to the internal keyboard.

  • Satellite Pro C660 - keyboard problems

    This issue is one for computer laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro C660-1UX running Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1.

    Some of the keys on Board (E, T, U, I, O, A, B, N, and the Enter key) fail to register.
    All keys tested so far seem to register normally.

    When you connect an external USB keyboard, all the keys work properly. When you use the integrated keyboard or external USB keyboard, however, pressed some key is selected for about 2-3 seconds so that his character register. This makes typing incredibly slow and is naturally unacceptable.

    I checked the Manager of devices looking for errors, but can't find one. The keyboard driver is classified properly installed and functional, and driver update indicates that the latest version is in already in service.

    I've also scanned for viruses using Spybot and Malware bytes and also with laptops own antivirus software pre-installed. All the analyses of the entire system refer a none found the message of threat.

    I read that the keyboards on these machines can sometimes be problematic, which could respond only to edge, some function keys. The fact that all the external USB keyboard keys work seems to confirm this. However, the fact that the keyboard both onboard and external is affected by the same slow pressure might also suggest a bios problem - but that this laptop computer is several years old and working perfectly, why bios suddenly would cause this problem.

    I visited the Toshiba site and based on this laptop with the part number: PSC0ME-02100SEN, I have concluded (rightly or wrongly) that the correct bios download version is 1, 70 - WIN, only when I read the following installation instructions http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9502M10000R01.htm bios
    I became quite concerned, like installing the bios update seems far from simple.

    Does anyone know if it is possible to download and install the bios right through an update automated versus manual download and installation step by step, which, if not carried out as planned, could make the laptop completely unusable.

    Has anyone reading this post experienced similar problems with this make and model laptop and was able to return successfully to the good operating condition. If so, how?

    All constructive advice would be welcome.

    > When you connect an external USB keyboard, all keys work correctly.

    This means that the keyboard controller is OK and the internal keyboard is defective.
    To resolve this problem of keyboard, internal keyboard needs to be replaced.

    > However, the fact that the keyboard on board as external is affected by the same keypress slow could also suggest a bios problem - but this laptop computer is several years old and works perfectly, why bios suddenly would cause this problem.

    Hmm I n t think so
    The keyboard delay can be bound to parameters.

    Hello

    I think the drawing application needs the graphics driver that supports OpenGL.
    To my knowledge, the driver of the Intel page should already contain the OpenGL.
    The Satellite supports graphics Intel HD (Intel HM55) so I think that you should use the driver from the Intel page, even if the update utility indicates that you are using the latest driver.

    I think that you need to uninstall the old driver through the Device Manager.
    In addition, check whether it should be uninstalled in the control panel-> software.

    Then download the latest driver for the Intel HM55 chipset, and install it via the Device Manager.
    You do this by using the Advanced installation procedure that will force windows to select the driver from the driver's record, that you have downloaded from the Intel page.

  • "SHIFT" on the Satellite Pro C660 key does not work

    G ' Day,.

    I have a little problem with my laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro C660.
    Unfortunately I had to remove the keyboard and thus dislodged the
    fragile plug to connect to the computer.

    The 'Shift' key refused to work since. All other keys work as usual.
    The only problem is the 'Shift' button does not.
    I tried to gently move the plug but made no difference so now have to
    Use a USB keyboard.

    Can you please help with suggestions for this problem?
    Thank you for your time.

    See you soon,.
    Sunrap.

    I really put t know what you think when you know that there is no connection for each unique key, but for the entire keyboard.

    To be honest I ve changed keyboard several times but never noticed this problem.
    Are the two SHIFT keys off function?

  • Cannot install Win 8 - Satellite Pro C660 does not detect HARD drive

    Hello

    My HARD drive died, so I decided to upgrade my Satellite Pro C660 - 1 9 to an SSD.
    I made a USB bootable with Win8 and starts very well.

    The problem is that it does not detect my SSD, so I can proceed with the installation.
    SSD appears in BIOS but not in Windows Installer.
    He said that there is a missing driver.

    I downloaded the AHCI drivers (XP, only ones available) and even in this case, after you have selected the only rider that appears, it says no new device found.

    I tried to change the SATA from AHCI mode to compatibility mode and it's the same thing...

    What can I do?

    Thanks for the help.
    Best regards
    Bruno Moreira

    More old Windows XP need a driver AHCI Intel's but I think this isn't a problem with SATA driver missing because as far as I know Windows 8 as well as Win 8.1 already contains the drivers to recognize the SSD or HARD disk drive.
    In addition, the installation of the OS should be possible even if the driver would be added for this procedure, you must use the "compatibility" mode
    As you say, the compatibility mode is not working too, so I think there is another problem.

    However, page driver Toshiba also provides a driver Intel RST (Intel Rapid Storage Technology) (Windows 8 - updated) you can try to add during the installation of the OS.

    But I m wondering if you would be able to install this Win 8 on common SATA HDD.
    Have you tried to format the SSD using a different computer, then install Win 8?
    Give it a try.

  • Re: Magenta/Purple mount screen Satellite Pro C660-2JR

    Hello

    I just brought a new laptop Satellite Pro C660-2JR and a few hours after getting it I noticed he has a purple cast/tint on any gray tones and is especially noticeable if a B & W image is seen because it has tones of purple, white and black with grey wire no real!

    Its very visible on the default settings (which are mostly dressed and contrasting even after I turned the backlight down) and I adjusted the brightness, contrast and gamma via graphics driver as by test cards, but despite that I get this darn will not disappear.

    Is the only way to sort of get rid of him for the contrast of the Green layer but affecting the other colors as well so it's not really solve the problem and the cast usually ends either be clear or green purple with no real neutral gray.

    This distribution is visible in all lighting and all the corners of the screen.

    I send it back for a replacement or open a repair warranty on the laptop, is there anything anyone can suggest I do?

    It is not easy to discuss this issue. We will see what it looks like.

    In my opinion, you should contact your local dealer, compare it with other laptops of the same series and ask for replacement.
