Satellite A660 - screen wont work

I have a Satellite A660 and when not hooked up to an external monitor or Tv, the screen on the laptop is white and you cant use it.
The only way I can use the laptop and be able to see the display is if i hook up the laptop to the TV via HDMI cable and use it like that.
The laptop is less then 6 months old and is hardly ever removed from our desk in our office.
Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem or knows what it may be!
If not, how do i got about getting someone qualified by toshiba to have a look at it as it would be a warranty issue being under 6mths old.
Thank you in advance for any help anyone can provide.

> Just wondering if anyone else has had this problem or knows what it may be!
Did you try to use the FN + F5 in order to switch between the internal and external screen?
Try that.
If this will not help, then I would recommend contacting the ASP in your country because the warranty should be still valid (as you posted above).
I think the internal display is faulty because the video output works and this means that graphic card should be ok.

My ipod was dropped in toilet and screen wont work

my ipod was dropped in toilet and screen wont work.. is that something i could pay the service fee of 149 for or would it be not covered

If the iPOd is throughly dry, then the water has permenently damage your iPod. Yes, Apple will exchang your iPod for a refurbished one for theprice listed here:
Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
Since you did not specifiy your model iPod or capacity I do not know if $149 is corrt but that is the price for a 32 GB 4G iPod.

I have a first generation iphone that all the sudden would not respond to any touch on the home screen, but would respond to powering off. It would also respond to the ipod play menu on the lock screen. Because my iphone is out of warranty I descide to get the 3g iphone and just my luck as soon as I go to play with my new toy it does not respond and when it does respond it does what it wants to. If i push settings it wants notes. I have to slide my finger up and to the right in the middle of the screen in order to turn the thing off. Hopefully my luck changes to good when I try to get them replaced.

Mac mini screen wont work after lion

My hdmi connection to my tv wont work after installing lion last night. It worked once last night but hasnt worked since. All cables are in tact and computer is set up the same. I cant even see anything to fix it!

I called apple - I'd have been in trouble if my mac had been my only internet access!
I had to reset the P-RAM
as so:
mac is powered off
turn on power then instantly press keys: command option P R
the mac will chime as usual then on the second chime let go of the keys.
After this my screen worked again.
For info - command key is cmd, option key is alt
I did this with an old mac wired keyboard - not sure if it will work on bluetooth keyboard, but it might.

TV tuner on my Satellite A660 would not work

Hi,
I purchased a Toshiba Satellite A660-07S a couple of months ago and then reinstalled the Windows 7 32 bit system in order to have a few more partitions. But I did not delete the hidden partition from the system just in case I have to restore to factory settings.
Now I have moved to an remote area and need some TV but only to find out that the tuner was not working. It is detected properly under sound and gaming devices in device manager. Yet when I use windows media center to scan channels. The WMC just said the software had encountered a serious error and please retry.
Then I tried to use Blaze DTV which is also a very popular DTV software. It successfully recognised the Tuner but will not scan either.
I did a bit of research and used the TV tuner setup trouble-shooter from Windows 7. The warning message is that "the Tuner is not properly configured to be used in Windows Media Center". And the details show that the tuner is connected but not enabled for WMC.
But how can I enable the tuner for WMC then?
Really hope someone can help as I am freaking out now in a remote town in NT.
Thanks!

Sounds like Windows or WMC may be corrupted. I would try a System Restore to revert the system back to a previous date.
Also ensure the channel width in WMC is set to 7mhz, not 8mhz.
Also update the BIOS.
If that's no help, then back up your important data and run Recovery to reimage the HDD back to its factory state.
To run Recovery, turn on the notebook and hold the 0 (Zero) key down.
You should create Recovery Discs first, there should be an icon on the Desktop, or use the Toshiba Recovery Disc Creator from the Start Menu.
Now if it still doesn't work after a fresh Windows install, then there could be a hardware problem. In which case, you would need to send the notebook to a Toshiba Service Center.

Satellite Pro C850 wont work after Bios update

my satellite pro c850 cd wont work after bios update from toshiba.
what do i do?

Saying: dont work you mean it does not power up or what do you mean exactly?
Did you flash the BIOS properly?
Possibly something went wrong during the update and this means that ROM module isnt flashed properly
In most cases a special BIOS crisis disk would be needed to get it working
Not quite sure if you can get it fixed by your own
Check this thread. Maybe it helps:

Otherwise you need help from authorized service provider available in your country.

Satellite A660 - Touchpad not working

I have a Satellite A660-16Z and the touchpad doesn't work at all even if it is enabled with F9.
I must use an external usb mouse.
I tried several times to unistall and reinstall the touchpad driver got from toshiba site without success.
In the beginning,after purchase,I remember the touchpad was working but I used an external mouse anyway.
From that time I upgraded the bios to 2.00 plus W7 upgrades and service pack 1.
Any idea appreciated.

Hi
Does the touchpad work if the USB mouse is disconnected?
As far as I know there is a option which disables the touchpad automatically if the USB mouse has been connected.
You can find this option in: control panel -> mouse -> Pointing device
Check this.
