• Is satellite C660/C660D supported 3D videos?

  Hello admin,

  I would like to know if my Toshiba Satellite C660/C660D supports 3D video. I played one of the sample video on YouTube and use a simple 3D glasses (I received when free went to the cinema watch 3d movie) but that seems to not work, or would it be my laptop which doesn't support 3D.

  Please explain in detail. Thank you very much

  There is nothing to explain in details. I put t know Satellite you exactly, but it is unclear to me that all of the Satellite C660/C660D has 3D capability.

  What model do you have?

• Re: Overheating and lag issues on the Satellite C660/C660D

  Hello community of Toshiba

  I am a new user of Toshiba, I have a new Toshiba laptop as a model of its Satellite C660 / C660D, I use my new laptop for 6 months and I have some kind of a lot of time on my laptop. Sometimes I keep it open for more than 10 hours.

  My problem is like 3-4 months at the bottom right of the screen there is a caution came out as "there's something wrong with your hard drive, you should give it to any service of Toshiba for warranty".
  But it happened because I played on users, I mean users option for windows, not something material, changing just the current user name caused this and he now has weird name when I reversed the name change; He turned to something like TOSH ~ 1, etc.

  After several times, I mean like 1 month ago, my computer got very slow. Video games with their high resolution, but now the phone LAGS even I put it in low resolution, I played... I did not change any material or touched. But it is frustrating to see that I can't do the things I used to do more.

  Another thing is, I'm afraid of the heat from the laptop. Is it normal to have 49-50 degrees? Because when I play games, it is around this level. I live in a hot city.

  Some people asked me to use HD Tune to check that if I have a bad sector on the hard drive, I did. Does not work either.
  I deleted some of my files to get the free space on my HARD drive also, likely 150 concerts altogether. I even wiped the empty space in my HDD via CCleaner. I often do the basis of registry-fix with it as well. Movies and games flash hangs out as well. And sometimes when I watch videos, the sound cuts, so I have to pause, and then click play it again to fix it but it happens in various video players, not youtube. Very probably all watching anime.

  And what do I do? I don't want to go for the service, I'm sure they'll make me wait several weeks of 100%. I use usually my laptop with its adapter. Oh and, over the life of my laptop, 2 - 3 times he got stopped himself while it wasn't on the map whenever I check, he was really but really hot.

  So, what should I do? I don't want to open the computer to look inside, I do not understand, and he would risk my 2 year warranty.

  I am looking forward for your answers, I'll be very happy. Thank you.

  It is not easy to say what the problem is here. In General, you should think about upgrading the RAM to the maximum level. With more RAM laptop should have more power and different operations should be made much more quickly.

  To make my laptop better and faster I ve upgraded RAM to the maximum level and also changed SSD HARD drive. So big difference there and phone now works like a rocket. Think about upgrading RAM.
  > Another thing is, I'm afraid of the heat from the laptop. Is it normal to have 49-50 degrees?
  From my point of view, this temperature is normal and certainly not too high. When you use your laptop, place it on the office and ensure that the cooling fan and cooling rack are free and not blocked.

  Don t open your laptop. Anyway, you can't do anything except to void your warranty. RAM upgrade can be done by the owner of the laptop and it will not void your warranty.

• Slow Super Satellite C660/C660D

  My mother bought a Tosh Satellite C660/C660D about 5 months ago. On the first day, it was slower than a snail with a cold.

  * Problem: *.
  When you click the Start button, it may take a good 10-20 seconds for the menu is displayed. When you select say MS Word, which can take 30 to 40 seconds to load up. Even opening IE can take a good 30 seconds, then theres time for opening in addition to this Web site.

  Monitor system shows (between 3% and 7% CPU), (physical memory (84% used): when the system is at rest, do nothing, not running programs.)

  Laptop a Celeron 1.5 ghz, 1 GB RAM and Windows 7 (64-bit). I know that's not the best laptop there, but I think that's stud react a little less than he does.

  Have installed many, mainly from MS office. No games or graphics programs.

  WHAT IVE DONE SO FAR *.

  * Does the Toshiba, build in the system recovery. (Several times)
  * Reg clean, clean, Defrag system
  * Update the BIOS & Chip Set

  Any ideas?

  > System Monitor shows (between 3% and 7% CPU), (physical memory (84% used)

  In my opinion, you should pass the RAM.
  84% is already used by the system, so it takes more time to start other applications.
  Your laptop uses 1 GB of RAM running Win7 64 bit guy I put t surprise me that your laptop is slow.

  I recommend you to upgrade the RAM to 2 GB or better 3 GB or 4 GB of RAM

  Also in the Image tab, you will find some controls like: brightness, gamma, hue, saturation and sharpness. Play with these settings.

• Satellite C660/C660D - shift key causes the screen to go black

  After purchasing the Satellite C660/c660D less than a month ago.
  I am disappointed to see the SHIFT key (left), as well as the CTRL pressed, causing the screen to go black intermittently when you type my blog...

  Course not blogger like tested also in word.
  All the ideas that is weak given the reviews and prices...
  Help... dosnt do it every time, but most of the time. Not happy!

  It is a fault, I don't expect this brand

  Thanks for any help

  Hello

  > I am disappointed to see the SHIFT key (left) and the CTRL pressed, causing the screen to go black intermittently when you type my blog...

  What does this mean exactly? Press SHIFT and CTRL button turn off the display, and you are not able to see anything on the monitor?
  Is this good?

  Have you checked if this happens with the help of an external USB keyboard too?
  If this isn't the case, I guess that your keyboard is malfunctioning and needs to be replaced.

  One of my friends had a problem with my keyboard. The cursor jumped around and some characters are displayed two times this could be resolved by the BIOS update I m do not know if your laptop uses the latest version of the BIOS, but you can check this too.

  Microsoft advises it is a question of manufacturer, as my OS is OEM.
  Can anyone help identify this error and suggest how to fix it?

  I never heard of this issue.
  Can you change the standard background images provided by Windows?

  When this problem occurs you want some private photos?

• I would like to upgrade the RAM of the Satellite A100-803

  Hello

  I want to upgrade the RAM of my Satellite A100-803, which uses actually PC2-533, at 4 GB.

  Can I upgrade to PC2 - 667?
  Do I need Dual-Channel?
  One advises on what brand or the best model to use?

  If I not mistaken and for what I could see around the internet, I should be able to switch to 4 GB PC2-667 and Dual-Channel should not be necessary. But an expert of confirmation would be appreciated.

  Thanks in advance,

  Best regards.

• Satellite C660/C660D - Webcam does not work

  I recently got the Toshiba satellite c660/c660D laptop for my 21st birthday in July. It is said there is a built-in webcam, but I can't see it or find it. Also when I try to use videoconferencing on Skype, he said that it is not important which web camera connected.

  I was wondering how I can get the web camera work? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

  What operating system do you use?
  When you open Device Manager check please if webcam is in the list. You can find it under imaging devices.

  Also check the BIOS settings. I'm not sure but maybe webcam is disabled it. Check it out.

• Satellite C660/C660D starts not (black screen)

  So this morning after having attempted to power my Toshiba Satellite C660/C660D upward I met up with a black screen.

  The power lights both work and light, fans the vortex when I turn on but nothing ever comes on the screen, I was wondering if someone could help here?

  It is less than 3 months.

  To be honest I really don t know how to help you.
  Remove the battery, leave the laptop for a while and try to start the laptop with AC power only. Try to do several times with or without battery. If nothing is done it must be a hardware problem, so I recommend you contact Toshiba service and ask for help.

  Guarantee is valid, then there is no reason to worry about this.

• Increase the video RAM on a Satellite C660-1N6

  I tried to run a software for video editing (Cyberlink PowerDirector 8) on my Satellite C660-1N6, but it does not start.

  I was informed that 64 MB of ram of the laptop is not enough. My old laptop had a shared ram of with256Mb card SIS Mirage 3 and the program worked fine.
  I told myself I must increase the video ram 256 MB, but I don't know how this will affect the operation of the excellent laptop.

  Thanks a lot for your suggestions.

  Hello

  I found some info that your laptop has graphics UMA (Unified Memory Architecture). This means that the GPU uses system RAM instead of having there own dedicated RAM. They are fine for the use of the web, watching movies and so forth, but don't not to play or using video graphics performance of publishing applications.

  As I know there is no way to manually set. Everything works automatically and depends on the RAM used in Notepad.

  Hi, Craig:

  Here is the link to the page of specifications of product for your laptop.

  http://support.HP.com/US-en/document/c03502474=

  You can upgrade the memory 16 GB, but you can't do anything about the graphics if you replace the motherboard with one of those enrolled in the service manual that may have better graphics.

  I haven't checked the service manual for your specific model see if the motherboards are available with the best of video solutions.  You can check in Chapter 3 of the manual of service by clicking on the tab at the link above User Guides.

  Such an undertaking would cost several hundred dollars for a new motherboard and as such, is not a viable option.
