Satellite C855-use my LG TV as wireless display

I have a Satellite C855-S5350, and i recently purchased a brand new LG 6300LB HD tv. Id like to use it as a wireless display. When i go to devices and add device in conjunction to having my TV screen share app open, it says cannot connect. My TV tells me it accepts WiDi and Miracast, im almost positive my computer doesnt have WiDi though.
Im pretty familiar with this type of stuff, and have no luck. I have connected my Android easily. Maybe i need a driver? Not sure what else to try.
Solved!

With apple TV, can I use my TV as a wireless display for my mac?

I asked a similar question in another forum, and I was told to look into Apple TV. So here I am. If I bought this apple TV, and connected it to my HDTV, would I be able to wirelessly use the TV as a display for my MacBook Pro?

You have to wait until next summer when Apple will introduce Mountain Lion, OS X 10.8 with AirPlay Mirroring, as one of its new features.
Check this and other new features of Mountain Lion at:

How to install Windows 8 on Satellite C855-21W - No disk

Hello,
Recently the HDD from my SATELLITE C855-21W crashed. All Data wear lost.
Serial: YC273011R
Now i would like to reinstall Windows 8.
But i have no CD /DVD and all partitions on the HDD are gone.
How can i reinstall Win 8 on the Laptop again?
Where can i get a DVD?
Thanks

Hi
This is pity but HDD can always start to malfunction and therefore its advisable to create a Recovery Disk before starting to use the notebook.
However, now you cannot create such recovery disk because the files are lost.
Now you have two options:
1) You can install the Windows 8 using Microsoft Win 8 disk (you will need to purchase Win 8 if you dont have it). The essential Toshiba drivers could be downloaded from the Toshiba driver page
2) The second option is much easier: you could order the Toshiba Recovery disk from this page http://backupmedia.toshiba.eu/landing.aspx and could set the notebook back to the factory settings.

How to format HDD on my Satellite C855-1GQ?

I have a Toshiba Satellite C855-1GQ.
How do I format my HDD thanks for your help.

Hello
I don't know what do you want to do exactly. HDD can be formatted before you install original recovery image that you got with your machine but also if you want to install own OS version.
If you have created recovery disc you can format HDD using one of the offered options (erase the hard disk) - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R02.htm
In case that you want to use Microsoft installation disc at the beginning of setup procedure current HDD will be shown. You have option to delete existing partitions, create new partitions and install Windows OS.
Please let us know what do you want to do exactly.

Satellite C855-1CH - cannot control brightness after closing / opening lid

hello
i have a problem with windows 7 64 and amd 7610m driver, when i install the driver from toshiba site, have problem with hibernate,
When i closed lid and unplugged ac adapter and after few minutes/hours i turn on the computer the brightness is same (my brightness with battery is 30% and ac 100%) and can't change with function keys, and power option dont have brightness monitor, but only i reboot the system its back ,
How fix this problem?
I trying to install driver of amd 7600/7500 and the battery time elapsed fast with down brightness in 1.5/2 hours (with 7610m 2.5/3) and the fan of motherboard work strong , while i only use in solitaire.
thanks for help!
if someone can to help me , contact to me.

>i try to install driver from amd site -driver amd 7500/7600 not amd 7610m . this work without problem but the fan work very strong and Heats up faster i afraid Afraid it will not destroy my computer beacuse is diffrent driver.
So it seems the problem is related to the display driver because as you mentioned, using the display driver from AMD website the brightness control works without problems.
The C855-1CH series was equipped with the graphic chip which is used in other notebook models as well.
Therefore the GPU driver released for other series with the same graphic card chip should be compatible.
I recommend you to test other graphic driver versions released for the following models:
Satellite C850 PSKCCE, PSCBYE
Satellite C855 PSKCCE, PSKCEE,
Satellite C870 PSC8EE, PSCBCE
Satellite C875 PSC8EE, PSCBCE
Satellite Pro C850 PSKCDE, PSCBZE
Satellite Pro C870 PSC8FE, PSCBDE

Re: Satellite C855-1GN very slow performance - booting procedure takes 15min

My sister bought a Satellite C855-1GN installed with Win7 64-bit last December (typical - 4 days out of guarantee now) and for sometime has found it getting slower and slower.
She asked me to take a look at it for her, and she is quite right, this laptop is appalling unresponsive for even the most basic of tasks like opening Windows Explorer, which takes over a minute to open.
It's a similar story for pretty much any button press on this machine, sometimes longer depending on what has been clicked. Even getting the thing booted up from power button press to desktop being visible (let alone usable) takes a staggering 15 minutes plus.
Entering text such the password for user to login to Windows, or a URL in any browser (IE and chrome installed by default) results in the spinning circle equivalent to an egg timer for at least 60 seconds before anything happens, as does pretty much any button click. For example, Windows start button or right click on anything whatsoever.
Initially I suspected some kind of malware / too much rubbish installed. Ran full scans, no issues. Disabled / uninstalled all of the bloatware I could find, still no difference.
Shut down all power saving features, still appallingly slow.
Windows Experience / Task Manager / resmon all report nothing out of the ordinary nor anything eating resources. Out of desperation, reset to Out Of Box Experience condition using the hidden recovery partition... which took over 24 hours to complete, and that's not an exaggeration.
I went to bed, then to work for the day, and it still hadn't finished until I'd been home for a couple of hours.
This machine now has a completely fresh (albeit Toshiba specific) Win7 install, and runs just as horrifically slowly. I'm still waiting for desktop, 17 minutes after powering it on before typing this. It's had several reboots, and is not still installing anything.
6GB of RAM is more than ample. Whilst not a P3, 5 or 7, there is no way that an Intel B950 dual core processor running at an admittedly not top class 2.10GHz can be this slow (especially as it wasn't until a few months ago), I've had awful Celerons in my time which have been infinitely faster than this.
Has anyone else had similarly pathetic performance from this model? If so, we're any of you able to resolve it? Or should we just bin this paperweight?

Hi
In the past we have discussed many times about similar issues and some people were not satisfied about performance of brand new notebooks preinstalled with original recovery image.
As small example you can check this thread. Generally speaking there is described what you should do with this machine. You must, I like to use word optimize, preinstalled operating system. It will definitely run better and faster.
Other way there can also be problem with HDD. If your sister likes this machine I recommend you a small investment in new hardware. Exchange HDD with SSD. SSDs are not so expensive anymore so you can buy one, I would say, with 250GB and I think it is enough free space for their work.
You cannot imagine how fast they are. I use one on my old P500. Notebook starts in 40 seconds only.
Im pretty sure with new SSD and optimized original Win7 that you got with this notebook your sister will have good and pretty fast machine.

Can I reflash BIOS on Satellite C855-12K PSKCEE to the same version?

I want to *REFLASH* Toshiba BIOS to *THE SAME* VERSION. In other words, I want to force flash utility to install the same BIOS version despite it's already isntalled (instead of just displaying popup "the newest version laready isntalled" and closing application after this popup).
Is this possible? Is there any way to fool flash utility to reinstall BIOS to the same version? Or to force older version install?
Any workaround is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Satellite C855-12K PSKCEE

Toshiba EU driver page provides only the windows-based BIOS version for download because its safe and easy to perform such BIOS update
The traditional BIOS update procedure requires another method and other BIOS version as far as I know such version is available for authorized service engineer only.
But the mentioned .exe file isnt an real exe application but this is an zipped folder.
Using WinRAR or WinZip its possible to unzip this exe file clicking right and choosing Extract here

Satellite c855 - VGA port suddenly not working

Hi people
I've got the toshiba-satellite c855-17c. windows 7.
I usually work on my laptop and a monitor, which i use by plugging in the vga cable. I've been using that set up for more than a year and never have any problem.
Now, nothing happens when i plug in the cable. i checked with another laptop and the screen does appear on the monitor - so it seems the problem comes from my laptop.
Would you have any idea why this happened and the solution to this problem?
Thanks,
Ben.

Hmm very strange
I dont know why this happened but you could try following steps:
1) go to BIOS and set it to default settings (F9)
2) uninstall the graphic card driver (in device manager -> graphic card -> uninstall driver)
3) after the GPU driver has been uninstalled, reboot the notebook and install the display driver which you could download from the Toshiba EU driver page
4) shut down the unit
5) remove battery and AC adaptor. Press and hold power button 30 sec long. Put the battery in and connect AC adaptor and power up the unit.
Good luck

Satellite C855-1LG - where to find the appropriate keyboad driver?

Hello
I've very recently acquired a Satellite C855-1LG. I used it yesterday for the first time and i realised that the digital part of the keyboard (on the right) is not working even when the "verr. num." key is on.
I tried to look for drivers since the drivers i have now are just the standard ones, but the french tshiba support website can't recognize my cmputer. It says it doesn't exist....
And I used a software to check my drivers, it says most of them are obsolete.
So y conf

Thanks for your help !

How have you tested functionality?
Open please notepad and check if the numbers will be shown there when you enable NUM LOCK option and enable it.
One more thing: does it work when you disable it? can you use, for instrance, PGUP, PGDN, HOME or END options?

Satellite C855-2FG doesn't have UEFI boot

Hi everyone!
I would like to ask, that Toshiba Satellite C855-2fg laptop can't boot in UEFI mode? Or it will be put in a new BIOS update?
Before you ask, it doesn't have a secure boot option or UEFI enabling option in its BIOS.
Thanks for the answers!

Yes I know this, but i would like to make multiboot option between windows, linux and mac osx. It is difficult to do this on an MBR partition table, because windows make its first bootloader to the mbr, after that could linux do its own grub 2 bootloader. If i want to use linux i have to wait first for the windows 8.1 bootloader, where i can choose linux bootloader. After this the computer reboots and i can boot into linux.
But its very slow. I hoped, that a laptop i buy in 2013 has UEFI boot option :(
In some other topics i read, that similar toshiba products has this option in bios.
Thank you for your answer!

Audio Stuttering for Satellite C855-S5350

Hello. I am currently experiencing some audio stuttering on my Satellite C855-s5350. I was wondering how one goes about fixing the problem. It uses Realtek HD Audio.

Was it working previously? Try using System Restore to restore a previous restore point from before this became an issue.

Operating system change on Satellite C855-1TC

I have a Toshiba Satellite C855-1TC and wish to remove Windows 8.1 and replace it with Windows 7 Home Premium.
Does anyone have any advice regarding this change of operating system ?.....namely drivers etc availablility.

Hi
I have visited Toshiba download page - http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/dow...ivers_bios.jsp and i can confirm that your notebook model (PSCBWE) is fully supported for Win7 64bit so there you can find all necessary drivers, tools and utilities.
Before you start to install Win7 create recovery media (DVD or USB) and make recovery image back-up. One day if you want to have factory settings again you can use it for Win8.1 installation.

Well, this means that your battery isnt detected.
Did this problem appear using Win 8 system too?
The update from Win 8 to Win 8.1 should be performed as recommended on this Toshiba [Update to Windows 8.1|http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/generic/windows8_1-message/] website.

Hi
To be honest I never tried to connect my notebook to TV with Intel Wireless Display but I found some informations on Intel page:
http://www.intel.de/content/www/de/de/architecture-and-technology/intel-wireless-display.html
here is a nice HowTo movie created by Intel:
http://communities.intel.com/community/tech/intel_widi
But requirements are:
Core CPU i7-620M, i5-540M, i5-520M, i5-430M, i3-350M and i5-330M
Furthermore you need Intel-HM57-, -HM55-, -QM57- or -QS57- chipset
And preinsatlled Windows 7.
Should check this with your notebook!
