Satellite Pro C660 - 1NR WLAN XP driver problem

Hello

We have a new 1NR C660 - have installed XP Professional SP3 - downloaded the drivers and installed. Everything works except the WLAN.

List of device manager network controller - which details suggest a WLAN Atheros (DEV_0030) controller.

We downloaded and installed the driver from the Toshiba WLAN download site, but it is still not recognized?

I reinstalled XP 3 times and tried different versions of the driver but same result.

Help!

You have installed Atheros driver version 7.7.0.406.2?

  • 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.

  • Satellite Pro C660-1NR crashes intermittently, hard reset required

    Windows 7 64 bit Satellite Pro C660-portable 1NR

    Hello

    One of computer Laptop my users freezes at random times throughout the day. At first, I thought it was battery attached, as the first two occurrences that happened when using disconnected, but it has since then done when connected too. On average, it happens at least once a day.

    He will not resume later, the only way to get past that is holding down the power button then restarting.

    The problem started when downloading a number of updates from Windows about 6 weeks ago. Previously it has never frozen, not even once.

    I'll wait to die again (maybe today, maybe tomorrow!) and focus on the event log around the time he died.

    Don't you think that it is hardware or software related?

    I updated the drivers of the laptop, chipset etc, so everything is as up-to-date as I can get it.

    Nothing wrong with this laptop other than the gel, performs very well when it works.

    Your help is very appreciated.

    Kind regards

    So why you n t try to fix the system to the point before the updates were installed? I think it would be the first step, try to solve this problem.

    If the settings in the system at the point of early time would not help, I suppose that a recovery system would be the next step to find out the reason for this problem

  • Satellite Pro C660 - on and off the problem with Touchpad

    Hey guys,.

    I had one on and out of the question with my touchpad at least a few months now. I tried to do the function + F9 thing with little effect. Also, I re-uploaded the synaptics driver, which seems to make it work for a little while but then it started working sporadically.

    Currently my touchpad works from time to time, if it fails on the first pressing Ctrl Alt Del and then Esc seems to do the job for a little long but after that it just stops working. I am a student and not having is not a fully functional laptop is often a major obstacle if any help would be great.

    Best,

    gleeful199

    Hello

    My first question is: When did you notice this problem from touchpad.

    I mean, the Sat Pro C660 is a portable old and if this issue seemed to be in the first day of purchase, then something touched the touchpad feature in the past.

    The question is: is at - it something wrong with the software or touchpad maybe module.
    I think that can be answered only the settings of the notebook back to factory State.
    If you are recovering the using laptop computer Toshiba recover disk, you will get exactly the same State as at the first day of the purchase.

    If the touchpad would not always work properly, well there is some hardware problem

  • Satellite Pro M40 - no WLan connection - driver missing?

    I recently reinstalled Windows XP on my Satellite Pro M40, which eliminated all drivers for WIFI etc.

    I tried write the drivers on the toshiba site on drive on this PC and then install on the other PC, but still have no connectivity...

    Any ideas?

    Stand by.
    Some unknown device is listed in Device Manager?

    I'm not 100% sure but I think your M40 Atheros WLAN card inside. Please visit http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/?page=downloads and try to download and install WXP driver Atheros WLAN Card.

  • Satellite Pro C660-1NR lose wireless adapter?

    We bought a few of the above computers laptops running Windows 7, and I had problems with 2 of them so far! After some time of normal web browsing, I lose the wifi network and in the Device Manager, the Atheros AR938x card no longer shows as being installed (no icon or anything). After a reboot, everything is fine and the adapter shows as working normally. However, he can and pick up again intermittently.
    It's frustrating when standing in front of a class of students in the middle of a lesson. The only software that has been installed is office and a couple of educational programs that work fine on other machines.
    Any ideas before I throw them out the window?

    Thank you

    > Any ideas before I throw them out the window?
    Yes. Contact the nearest Toshiba service provider as soon as POSSIBLE and leave check books.

    All you can do is to install original recovery image (Win7) and test with the factory settings, but I don't think it will help.

  • Satellite Pro C660 - BSOD for WLANs by FN + F8

    Hello!

    (Sorry for my bad English, but this is not my first language)

    I have a problem with my (Windows 7-64 bit) Satellite pro c660.

    When I want to activate or DΘsactiver wifi (fn + F8).
    I see the wifi turns on, but after 2 seconds, I got a BSOD...

    So I'm looking for drivers for my card (Realtek RTL8188CE) network and it does not work...
    I search a lot and I found this forum. I find a lot of problem of "my fn +; '. does not work"and respond you"try to install VAP. I have download this PPV to my computer and right after having extracted the files, I have this message: "Please restart your computer."
    I reboot and it still does not work... So I try to uninstall PPVS but I can't found on the Panel.

    (I now see the fn + F9 (of / activate the touchpad) does not work.)

    I have TOSHIBA Hotkey Utility version 1.62.0.28C.

    Hello

    Your message is very confusing
    First of all, I don t think that missing WLan driver would cause a BSOD.

    From my point of view you have a lot of problems with the system I m not quite sure if the resettlement of VAP would solve all your problems and I doubt that this would be solce your BSOD problem.

    So I advise to use the recovery disk to put the laptop back to factory settings. If the BSOD would still appear after that the laptop was recovered, then I guess as a hardware problem (probably faulty module WLan) causing this BSOD

  • Satellite Pro C660 graphic needs driver upgrade for Adobe Lightroom 6

    I tested 5 Lightroom on my Satellite Pro C660 and it worked fine.

    I decided to do it, and that week Lightroom 6 came out, so I bought Lightroom 6.

    LR6 gets to the start screen, then stops and closes the Windows7.
    I contacted Adobe and they went on my machine and identified the problem as being the graphics card and says I need an update of the driver.

    I've been on the Toshiba site and it says that the latest driver is 8.15.10.2189, which is the one I currently have (and was changed in 2012).

    I've been on the Intel site and their obtrusive says that the machine has a pilot custom then contact Toshiba.
    I looked around the Intel site and tried to install that seem to be plausible drivers, but have not found one that would install.

    My installation includes a monitor LG 22 "connected to the laptop with the spread of the desktop on both screens (laptop and monitor).

    No one knows what would be the upgrade of the driver I need or how can I know?

    James

    The page Intel graphics driver can be used, and you can also download the driver directly from the page.

    This CPU does support your laptop?
    What Intel GPU (Intel HD graphics chipset *) is the support of laptop?

    The Intel download page provides a driver Intel as an exe or zip package
    https://Downloadcenter.Intel.com/

    You need to download and unpack the zip package.
    You will then be able to update the driver in Device Manager, choose the Advanced installation update procedure.

  • 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.

  • 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.
    You can check this in the control panel-> keyboard

  • Satellite Pro C660-2DJ - Windows 10 Upgrade and lack of Chicony Driver

    Well, Toshiba said the Satellite Pro C660 2DJ is not able to upgrade Windows 10. This time I found statement opposite on other sites and installed it. I'm happy enough, because I use it. Ah there is always a but... the Chicony USB 2 Laptop camera is registered as a device, but with (!) in yellow showing no driver. I found a driver for this device, but under Windows 7 64-bit.

    It would be very risky to install an old original driver now that Windows 10 is fine? As a rider to this, I know now there are thousands of people who were sure that their machines would be upgraded to Windows 10 and they are desperate because very little work. Thoughts, anyone?

    Win8 Toshiba does not offer driver webcam more as the operating system uses standard Windows driver.
    I did not pass my S50 - B Satellite so I do not know if I have an identical problem on my machine.

    I'm really interested if another user of the forum has the solution for this.

    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.

  • Satellite Pro C660-1NQ does not detect the WLan network

    Hi guys,.

    We have a Toshiba Satellite Pro C660-1NQ here that does not at all, detect the wireless network
    I checked the Device Manager and the wireless card does not show here.

    I tried scanning for new hardware, but nothing was found. I tried to turn the wireless off tension with the function and the keys F8 but not yet showing in Manager devices or any new hardware...

    Any ideas as to what I can try next?

    See you soon,.
    Ash

    Hello

    It seems that the laptop would support the Wlan Atheros 802.11agn card.
    Usually the Atheros Wlan card must appear in Device Manager as on the menu network cards.
    If it s not appear do not then I recommend that you install the WLAN driver which can be downloaded here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/?page=downloads

    Choose the Atheros Wireless LAN Adapter Windows 7 (32/64) 9.2.0.419.0 or newer
    I hope this helps to detect the WiFi chip!
