Satellite L655 - Sound not working on fresh install of Windows 7 Pro x64

Howdy all,
I purchased an L655-S5111 from Newegg that was on sale, put an SSD into it, and then installed a legitimate copy of Windows 7 Professional 64-bit I received from my current employer (I'm an IT guy). I've updated to the latest BIOS revision (1.70), and I've got all Windows updates installed, all drivers installed, including the correct Conexant HD Audio and ATI HDMI Audio drivers. Unfortunately, sound does not work. Sound worked briefly when I first installed Windows 7, then I muted it until I could get it set up with headphones. When I unmuted it, it had ceased to work.
This laptop is less than 3 weeks old at this point, and I get no audio over headphones or speakers, although Windows clearly shows no issues with the drivers, they're the latest version, on a fresh install, and I can see the audio in the mixer playing. The microphone built-in to the laptop does pick up sound as well. I believe that this is most likely not an issue of physical interconnection, but more likely a software level issue, I'm just having trouble identifying where it is at.
I also have no related error messages anywhere in the event logs.

I have two problems with installing the recovery image:
1) I didn't get a copy of the recovery media with the system
2) The recovery media would install Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit which is what came with the laptop.
Since I have legitimately licensed copies of Windows 7 Pro/Enterprise 64-bit, I would much rather install that. Since I used the drivers and software from the Toshiba website for this particular model, it should be working. There should be no functional difference between the recovery media and a fresh Windows install from the Microsoft-provided Windows media and Toshiba provided drivers from their website.
As you can see in the sysinfo (I'm assuming Keany the respondent is the admin that approved my post and edited it, thus had access to the data which was removed) I have all the Toshiba software and drivers installed, identically to if this was the recovery image, I just have it on a different edition of Windows 7.
I'm open to any other suggestions, but unfortunately it is not possible to do the above.

Satellite L450D Webcam not working after new installation without recovery

Hi there,
as posted in the thread title I have a problem with the integrated webcam of a customer notebook. Two days ago the operating system of this laptop was damaged by a virus and needed to be re-installed. I tried to install it with the recovery partition, which did not work. After it I tried to re-built it with the dvd I burned from the recovery partition with the same result.
The only thing that worked was a clean install with a windows 7 64 Bit retail dvd and the key printed on the sticker of the laptop. I managed to get everything working again except one part - the webcam.
No driver installation, bios update and re-installation worked to get this part to work.
Did anyone of you know this problem and have a fix for me?
Thanks in advance.
Greetings Saphire
P.S.: One thing shall be also important. When I look into the installed devices manager the driver for the webcam is listed as usb webcam and the manufaturer of it is Microsoft.

Hi
I dont think that this needs to be fixed because I dont think its hardware related issue.
I think there is something wrong with the software on your notebook.
I mean everything worked perfectly until virus has damage the OS. Right?
You said this:
>I tried to install it with the recovery partition, which did not work. After it I tried to re-built it with the dvd I burned from the recovery partition with the same result.
I really wonder why you could not get this working using Recovery disk.
So possibly this is the key to this issue
On the Toshiba European driver page I could find Registry Patch v1.1 For Win 7 64bit
Also webcam driver v 1.1.1.4 is available there
I think the OS is responsible for your issue possibly some patches are applied or similar

4Gs playlist not working since iOS6 install

Ever since I installed iOS6 my playlists won't play on my 4Gs iphone, or if they start to play (after a very long start up), they stop. One time it kept playing the same song over and over again. I save my music on iCloud and use iMatch. I restored my iPhone but nothing seems to work. If no one has a suggestion, can you please tell me how to get the previous iOS? I had no problems on that one.

Try putting your iPhone in restore mode. To do so you have to connect your iPhone to your mac via usb. Then press and hold the power and the home button at the same time. Now when the apple logo appears release only the power button, but keep on holding the home button until the iTunes logo with the usb cabel appears on your display.
iTunes should now recognize your iPhone in restore mode and you can safely restore your iPhone to factory settings.

MS Word not working since Acrobat install

I purchased and installed Acrobat XI Pro a few days ago. Now when I open MS Word I get a constantly running "wait" icon. I can use the program minimally, but it is extremely sluggish. I tried disabling the Acrobat Addin - no difference. I tried repairing my Word program - no difference. I tried printing to Adobe PDF printer (which worked fine) and surprise, the constantly running wait icon disappeared and Word worked normally. But the next time I opened Word the problem returned. I tried removing the Adobe PDF printer from my list of printers - no difference. I then went back to the original Acrobat installation. I can now use Word in a limited way if I select the Adobe PDF printer first, but printing to my regular Canon printer does not function properly. I'm using Windows 7 and Office 2003. I need help now please!

Well I sure waited a long time for no reply from this forum... That's disappointing. However I finally found a solution. After a great deal of sleuthing on Adobe, Microsoft and Canon websites, it turned out the updating my Canon printer driver did the trick. I'll leave this note here in case anyone else has a similar problem one day.

Satellite A300 is not working

My laptop has crashed. When I turn on the laptop I get a black screen asking me to select either startup repair (doesn't work) or start Windows normally (doesn't work).
I am then presented with System Recovery Options (start up repair, system restore, windows comple pc restore, windows memory diagnostic tool, command prompt, toshiba recovery wizard). No matter what optioin i select, nothing works. I have tried the recovery wizard but it advises i will lose all data.
I can't afford to lose all my data as it will mean i also lose itunes and i wont be able to deauthorise the computer.
I also have alot of photos and other important info.
I dont have any back up disks (they were not supplied when i purchased the laptop).
Hoping someone can help as i really need to retriend my everything.
HELP!!

> I dont have any back up disks (they were not supplied when i purchased the laptop).
The Recovery disk are not supplied because you have to create the recover disks using the preinstalled software called Toshiba Recover disk creator (I guess this is mentioned in user manual )
But this is the same recover procedure provided by Toshiba recovery wizard which you can find press F8.
Both procedures (HDD recovery or Recovery disk) would format the HDD.
I think you should boot the notebook using Live CD. You can use Linux Live CD or WinPE (or BartPE).
Google for that
These CD would boot an Windows or Linux environment and would get a access to the files on the HDD.
Then you could safe the files on external medium and then you can install Windows using HDD recovery .

Apple mail not working since Yosemite installed

I have had not new mail on my MacBook Pro laptop for several days. I do receive mail on my iPod Touch. The popup message on the MacBook mail states: "Mail cannot send your password securely to the server. You can remove this restriction in the Accounts preferences by setting “Allow insecure authentication”, which could put your password at risk. " Please advise what to do - I am reluctant to allow insecure authentication.

I am reluctant to allow insecure authentication.
You should be, but if that's what your mail server requires, you'll have to do it anyway, or else switch mail providers (recommended.)

Satellite L300-215 - Webcam not working

The webcam on my Satellite L300-215 has not worked since I downloaded the new Toshiba software months ago.
The Chicony webcam is not even recognised and it will not install the Toshiba software.
Two hours with Toshiba technical staff, including them having remote access to my computer, did not solve the problem.
It seems this is a very common problem and I have tried some of the suggestions on postings but with no result.
Does anybody out there have the answer?

I have two Toshiba notebooks, Satellite P200D and Satellite A300, both with webcam and everything works well. So I don't agree with statement about very common problem.
Does webcam works well if your notebook is preinstalled with Toshiba recovery image (factory settings)?

IChat Video Not Working since PSP3 bought!!

Hi guys,
ichat video not working since I bought and installed a new Playstation 3. I have a BT HUB that connects wirelessly with the imac. I have BT Vision running from the HUB too via ethernet wall boost adapters. I had this problem with video when i installed the BT Vision. And turned out to be something to do with Application Sharing settings on the HUB. I resolved it by correctly sharing AIM TALK with my wireless imac. Now the same problem has arisen since the psp3 was put on. But even with all the things I've tried I am stuck as how to get the video up and running as before. The devices running off the hub include:
1. imac (wireless via Airport Extreme)
2. BT Vision via ethernet and wall adaptors
3. iPod touch via wireless
4. PSP3 via wireless plug and play
I have checked all the ip address for these devices and have enabled app sharing for the imac wireless to AIM TALK in BT HUB manager. I have also opened my firewalls; changed the port setting to 443 in ichat preferences; re-set the HUB/Router;
Is there anything else I can do or check? As I said it worked perfectly before the psp3 went onto the
network. Should i assign AIM TALK to the imac wireless or to some of the other devices? (though I think I've tried that too!!)
Help would be much appreciated as this is driving me to insanity, if I wasn't there already!!!!
Take care, and thanks in advance for your help.

"speedtouch modem!"
Yes you do.
Thomson-Alcetel who make the Speedtouch range make this device for BT.
The Firmware is Thomson-Alcatels with BT Logo-ing.
This Ethernet 3 connection is probably internal.
Have you got System Preferences > Quicktime > Streaming set to 1.5Mbps ?
If not then do and restart iChat to see the new speed.
In Leopard the Automatic setting is read by iChat as 384K.
This may be allowing the PS3 to have too much of the bandwidth.
I or rather my son has a X-Box 360 which can be on-line when I video chat and it works for me, as it does when he uses his PlayStation 3
If the AIM talk setting uses the same port here as it is listed elsewhere then it has only opened/allowed port 5190.
This would have appeared to have been coincidental to any iChat use when you changed it.
Are you not using UPnP in this device ?
Which firmware is it up to ?
Anything above 6.2.2.6 should work.
Anything starting with 6 and containing letters is later.
In the .telephony section does it mention which port are open ?

Got the phone direct from the Apple website, so I assume it was unlocked, and it had been on giffgaff ever since but I don't see why that's a problem?
The carrier was automatically selected as Free and is up to date.
There seemed to be no problem that the SIM was being used in an iPhone 4 and my friends in exactly the same situation (e.g. arriving in France and moving over to the Free network with iPhone 4's) have had zero problems with their 3G network; it just seems to be me.
The Free Mobile Network is included on this list which I guess means that they are Apple-approved? iPhone: Wireless carrier support and features
How do I find out whether or not I would need to manually configure an APN? I'm not even sure I know what that is.

The function key in my Satellite C660 is not working

The function key in my Toshiba Satellite C660 is not working except for volume.
That problem appeared after i changed something in the startup programs and uninstalling as i remember tvap and no button support appears in my start up programs :(

That unbelievable I did something wrong..
First of all you have to install VAP. Then reboot the notebook.
Download and install Flash Cards Utility and reboot the notebook again.
Now go to Start -> All Programs -> Toshiba -> Utilities -> Flash Cards and restart this software.
Now the FN buttons should work.
But before you would start the whole installation, you should uninstall the VAP and Flash Cards and should clean the registry using CCleaner as suggested by some users hare in the forum!
