Satellite L655-S5117 Audio Issue

Hello, I just completed a system restore on a Toshiba Satellite L655-S5117, and I have no audio via the main speakers, however audio works fine via a pair of headphones. I am running windows 7 Home Premium. What do I need to do to get audio working via the main speakers?

Try reinstalling the latest sound driver:

Toshiba Satellite A665-S6055 audio issues.

A few hours ago I noticed my volume controls seemed to have a mind of their own. The volume bar would go all the way down to zero, and noticed the system control panel volume buttons (above the keyboard, not the same model but you get the idea) would light up on their own. Volume Up, Down, and Mute were lighting up and messing with the volume. It was as if someone was pressing them. Thinking it may be a virus of some sort, I ran Avast and Malwarebytes but both returned nothing.
I then thought the system control buttons were bugging out, and decided to uninstall the TOSHIBA Value Added Package, which I thought would remove the functionality of said buttons. However upon restart the problem has only gotten worse. Now the Play/Pause button is lighting up randomly. According to the control panel the Value Added Package was indeed removed, and I have not reintalled the latest version of it yet.
Any suggestions? My sound is essentially ruined.
edit: I tried restoring the system to a few days ago but it didn't help. After the restart yet ANOTHER button from the system control panel has started randomly lighting up. I'm starting to think this isn't an audio issue, but an issue with the system control panel buttons. I will reinstall the TVAP using this download and update this post with the results.
edit: Reinstalling TVAP did not solve the issue. The issue has actually escalated quite dramatically. Even more buttons are being accessed now, including the wi-fi button. I'm literally unable to access this website on my laptop because the wi-fi function keeps getting turned on and off. I fear a factory reset is my only hope.
edit: The issue goes away in Safe Mode. Still doesn't really fix anything though.
edit: Possibly fixed. Unplugged power cord, forced shut down, removed battery and waited about a minute. Plugged the cord back in as well as the battery. Started it up, went to BIOS settings and reset it to the defaults (F9). Saved the setting and continued the reboot process. The issue appears to be gone. I tested the volume buttons and they are working properly.
HELP.

Maybe this will help other with a similar situation.

Satellite L655-S5157 - audio on MAX is barely audible

I've checked all the volumes, main control, all other controls, and volume on the apps I'm using. I've also read other posts on the subject, and no, this model does not have a physical audio dial (unless it's hiding under a plastic cover I can't identify.) I also have the latest Conexant driver (checked that through Device Manager) As far as I can tell, the sound on this laptop just stinks. This cannot be as good as it gets.

I found the SmartAudio settings - It's ok now but only by turning up the equalizer to full on all ten settings. Is that the "answer"?

Satellite L655 S5107 Audio stutters and it also crashes

I'm having similar problems like a lot of people I think, where my laptop has audio stutters, but mines also freezes and then crashes. This happens when I'm listening to music or watching videos. I've tried updating drivers and disabling them and enabling again, but the problem still persists. I don't know what else to do, if anyone knows I would really appreciate the help, thank you.

You might want to share that information on the appropriate forum.

L655-S5117 No audio

I have a L655-S5117 Satellite lap-top (PSK2CU-0HP01S) with the audio icon having a red X on it. Read through these forums and tried windows restore to and earlier point thinking it might have been from an update. No success. When I go to the deivice manager to click on the audio device the line for Sound device is not found anywhere. Change the setting to show hidden devices still no Sound device listed.
I have Windows 7 (64 bit)
Also tried to do a proper sytem reser read in a previous post. no success.
Read other forums--downloaded drivers for Conexant audio 4.119.0.60 and they will not install. Assuming they wouldn't because it cannot detect a Sound device. Any suggestions? Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you!

Try this Microsoft Fix-It and see if it helps.

Strange Audio issue on Satellite L650/0FN

I bought a L650/0FN almost twelve months ago and have had trouble with an intermittent audio "buzz" in all audio file types and sources. The problem is now worse in that the "buzz" now appears to blank the screen and freeze the computer with the only way of shutting down being to pull the battery.
I found the following in a forum thread [http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=235672&#235672] and thought it might provide a solution, but when i go to the intel download page the description for this driver is desktop chipsets and I dont find anything on my machine similar to Rapid Storage Technology Drivers so this may be a dead end. This driver seemed to fix a similar problem in the 0ED.
" Re: Satellite L650-10M - Audio/Video Lag
Posted: 06-Mar-2011 10:23 in response to: Bernz117
I investigated a litte bit and maybe you could solve this issue updating the iRST (Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver) V10.1.0.1008.
But before you would do this, you should backup the data from the HDD.
I searched a little bit and the necessary driver V10.1.0.1008.or higher is available for download directly on the INTEL website under following link: http://downloadmirror.intel.com/19607/a08/iata_cd.exe "
Any thoughts or advice would be much appreciated. Thanks

Thanks As***,
By "Factory settings" do you mean the bios settings that came with the computer? To my knowledge those settings are all the same as when I bought the laptop. I haven't changed anything other than loading a few programs ie Word and Photoshop. (Im not sure how to check the bios settings on this machine (?)).
I Don't think i have experienced the "buzz" with headphones plugged in, but again, this is an intermittent problem.
I rang the toshiba service line but the fellow I spoke to wasn't much help unfortunately.
Sorry if my description wasnt very clear I'll try to expand on the problem:
The problem began with what can best be described as a slight audio delay or glitch, sounding like a loud "buzz" or "Brrrrrrr" that would last only a few seconds and replace the sound content. This would occur intermittently and unpredictably when playing various forms of audio (including movies and windows start up). At first I wasn't to bothered but the duration of the "buzz" has grown and then a few days ago it grew so bad the it seemed to kill the laptop screen, as it went blank and no command keys could stop it and thats when I had to pull the battery .
Im just getting a bit nervous as my warranty expires soon.

Display Driver Issues on Satellite L655-S5150 with Win10

I upgraded my Toshiba satellite (L655-S5150) to Windows 10 last week. Upgrade appeared successfully initially however shortly after the Win10 interface loads the computer will shut itself off. After exploring a number of possibilities it turns out the computer runs fine in safe mode or in low resolution mode selected from the mainteanance menu. So I feel quite certain like other issues I have seen with Win10 that have similarities to this one the issue is with the display driver. I tries updating the driver through device manager but it said I had the latest. Tried the Toshiba support pages and seem to be nothing new there for the "Intel HD Graphics" display driver. So seems at the moment I am stuck at low res mode if I want to have a functioning computer. Any ideas if there might be an updated driver out there, or can I change to something a little more generic that at least might allow me to boot in to normal mode and stay running?

Yes, have tried "update drivers" option and Windows Update option. No luck yet. Also searched manually for an updated driver on the Toshiba site and Intel site (Intel HD Graphics display adapter). I wish I could just load a generic display driver but every time I remove the Intel display driver and reboot it comes back after boot. Really a fix to the problem would be nice by anyone..... Microsoft, Toshiba, Intel, anyone......

Webcam issue on Satellite L655-S5144

Hello Please help me with this problem
[http://i48.tinypic.com/2mxe7t4.png]
i reinstalled webcam driver many time but same problem
Satellite L655-S5144
model No : PSK2CU -11R01U

Install original recovery image (factory settings) and test it for the last time. If the same problem persists there is reason to think about hardware failure.
In this case contact Toshiba service and ask for help.
Is warranty still valid?

Satellite L655 - Unable to download drivers

I'm trying desperately to reinstall a Satellite L655 and getting snookered in all directions.
1. I created recovery disks from the installation on the old, failing hard drive. When I install from these (after watching paint dry for about an hour) it reboots and then fails on first run - "windows setup could not configure windows to run on this computer's hardware". Forum suggestions about this error did not help.
2. The support partners in South Africa do not have copies of the factory recovery disks. They tell me they download drivers ad hoc from the support site.
3. I tried to clone the old disk (Windows is running on it, after all) but CloneZilla barfed on the bad sectors.
4. I installed Windows from a Microsoft OEM install disk image. It runs, but obviously requires hardware drivers. So I downloaded most of those I need, like LAN card, Intel Chipset, and Sound card. But the WLAN and Display drivers just won't download - these are the largest files (60 MB & 123 MB respectively) and the downloads fail before completion. WELL before completion. I tried several times, using up a significant amount of my bandwidth allocation for the month (we have capped access here in Darkest Africa!)
I tried the downloads from another site I have remote access to, thinking maybe there was something wrong with my broadband - and got the same exact issue. The remote site has Internet throughput speeds of around 6 Mb/s - surely enough for a 120 MB file transfer? Apparently not.
I have tried these downloads from before lunch time, through the afternoon and night and it's now after midnight, all with the same results (I am on a time zone that is right in the middle of the Euro zones).
Toshiba's website does not support download resuming, and there are no mirror sites. What in the blue blazes is a person supposed to do?
*UPDATE*
the 60 MB WLAN driver download to remote site succeeded on the second try. The 120 MB display adaptor driver failed even sooner on second try. I don't see much point in trying again, do you?

Hello Chris
Clean OS installation is very simply and I have done it in the past many times. If your Internet connection is stabile all necessary drivers, tools and utilities can be downloaded from Toshiba download page - http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp
Ive checked it and your Satellite model is listed there and supported for Win7 64bit.
WLAN driver you can find on Toshiba WLAN portal - http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/wlan/
As I already wrote on Toshiba download page you can find all drivers, tools and utilities. The same stuff is included in original Toshiba recovery image. Maybe you don't need some of them but I recommend you to install whole package.
Here is also install order that will help you:
Win7 64bit
TOSHIBA Assist
Synaptics Touch Pad Driver
Realtek Card Reader
TOSHIBA HW Setup Utility
TOSHIBA Supervisor Password Utility
TOSHIBA Web Camera Application
TOSHIBA HDD_SSD Alert
TOSHIBA Disc Creator
Intel Chipset SW Installation Utility
Intel Management Engine Interface
Display Driver
Intel Turbo Boost Technology Driver
Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver
Conexant Audio Driver
TOSHIBA Value Added Package
Atheros LAN Driver
TOSHIBA Software Modem
Conexant Modem Driver
Bluetooth Stack for Windows by Toshiba
Wireless LAN Driver
ConfigFree
My advice for you: download all stuff at first and save it on USB stick. After doing this reinstall Windows again and start to install listed stuff following this installation order.
One more thing: according notebook specification your machine should have Realtec WLAN card inside.
If you have more questions you are welcome.

Problem with sound on my new Satellite L655-1FO

Hello
I bought a new Toshiba Satellite L655-1FO before 5 days , I install all driver on XP an my sound work ok , but today I connect my headphone and I didnt hear sound like music just some scratch sound and when I disconnect my headphones , there was no more sound from my PC .
I restarted but the problem stay. Whats happen with my pc , is it broken?
I need to know because I have 7 days to back it and get new or to contact with service?
Thanks

You must understand that nobody here can say for sure if something is broken or not. We an just speculate what the problem can be.
I recommend you to install WXP one more time to see if this issue will be fixed. If not contact your local dealer and ask for replacement.
In the headphones port there is small switch that disable internal speakers when external speakers are connected. Maybe this switch stuck somehow. Who knows?

Toshiba Satellite L655-S5146 new hard drive woes

Hello all,
Im at my wits end and i was praying this community could help me. the factory hard drive of my laptop has died, so i purchased a cheap replacement, not nearly as large but it will serve my needs. when i place the new drive into the laptop it dosent boot at all. Ive tried to use Diskpart on my desktop and then drop the 2.5 into the laptop, but that dosent work. The drive is good, i am able to see it when i connect it to my desktop, so thats not the issue. I need to know if i am doing anything worng or if there is some way to get my lap to be kind enough to accept this new hard drive. All help is welcome and appre

telling me that windows couldnt make the system partition
Could be the drive doesn't have a digital signature. Connect it via USB to another machine and initialize the drive.

Downloads here.
Lots of drivers and utilities to install. And the order matters. Easiest to restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media. All the drivers and utilities are properly preinstalled. Windows is preactivated.
If you failed to burn recovery discs, you can obtain them from Toshiba. Scroll down to Get Recovery Media here .
For instructions, see the section Restoring from recovery DVDs/media, which begins on p. 71 of the User's Guide.

Toshiba Satellite L655-S51117 VGA Port Question

I have a Toshiba Satellite L655-S51117 with an Intel Graphics HD Video Card. There is no HDMI port on the laptop but I wanted to purchase a VGA to HDMI cable to connect to my LCD TV but it says the Video Card must support digital signal ouput through the VGA port. Does this particular card support digital signal output? I just want to be sure before I purchase go ahead and purchase the cable.
Thanks for your help!

I Got a laptop Satellite L655 for Xmas and I want to use it for my karaoke but I can't get it to work. I bought a new 15 pin to the RED, YELLOW and WHITE and S-Video cord but it won't work. My Old Laptop had A S-Video on the back and it worked fine. So how do I get this Laptop hooked up to my TV? It's an older TV but it has the red,yellow, white, and the S-video hook ups. Please any help on this? Yelsi

Audio would be stereo taken from the headphone port via a seperate cable to the converter box. It doesn't look like that machine has digital audio out, so no surround or whatever is possible.

L655-S5117's (2) will not recognize Vivitar DVR1240HD but other pc's do

My son and daughter both have L655-S5117's. Both are in good working order, kept updated and well maintained. Both have Win7 64bit home premium. Both have Microsoft wireless mouses occupying one of the two USB slots with no other peripherals. For all intents and purposes I consider both units to be identical.
Yesterday my daughter bought a Vivitar DVR1240HD video camera. We take it out of the package, follow the directions by plugging it in and turning it on. It installs 2 drivers, one specifically for the camera and one related to USB. Go to look for it as the E: drive Removable Drive, o reven as the name of the camera, and it's not recognized.
Unplug the camera and reboot...plug the camera in and power it up...still doesn't see it.
Take the camera to my wife's A505 (win7 64bit home premium, well maintained, updated, etc etc) and plug it in/turn it on...BAM...drivers load, interface pops up to open/view the contents just like any usb storage device would.
Take the camera to my desktop (non-Toshiba brand, Win7 64 bit home premium), plug it in/turn it on...BAM...drivers loaded and I can see it as expected.
Lastly, take the camera to my son's L655 and plug it in...result: can't see the device (camera).
From my perspective (and please let me know if you think it's wrong) the camera and the drivers work as they should. So what I'm trying to figure out why both laptops of the same model and configuration can't see the camera as a usb mass storage device but two other computers can. Is there something I can, or should, do to reconfigure the USB side of things on her laptop to make this work correctly? All the USB related drivers appear up-to-date when I check them.It looks as though the camera shuts off when the usb connection is made...isn't there a checkbox that prevents that port from shutting off? I saw a link in these forums for some troubleshooting tips related to USB issues. I plan to try them tonight.
Oh, and just for the sake of sanity, I plugged in a known-good, frequently used thumbdrive into the same port as the camera and the drivers loaded and the device was recognized in a matter of a few moments.
Thanks in advance for any guidance/support/suggestions you might have to offer. I'd love to resolve this so my daughter can make better use of the camera she's been saving up for for a long time.
Edit: I forgot to mention that the camera installs the Chicony USB 2.0 driver (?) as it shows up as an imaging device in Device Manager. I also noticed an additional USB device in the USB section of Device Manager. These two new additions appear on every computer I tried.

Could you repeat that question one more time? Do you what to know "why", or how to fix it?

Audio issues - MANY

I have a Satellite L745D-S4220RD Laptop, which I bought in September.
Sound - is there NO control on the keyboard for this anywhere? Actually it really doesn't matter since the sound that's there is barely audible. If I stick my head down next to the speakers I can tell there's something coming out of it. Volume - and it's turned all the way up - is mostly non-existant.
I use Adobe Audition. I've used it on various versions of IE from 98SE to my new W7 machine. I know it works on W7 since I've installed it in other people's PCs at work as well. However, it seems that for me to record into Adobe Audition - I can't unless I use the internal mic. I tried to record a County Council meeting from their webstream - got nothing. Tried to record anything from winamp - got nothing.
Played with the settings and discovered something to boost the audio - which makes things louder, but to try to record with anything - now I'm getting errors, which are reminiscent of soundcard issues I had back in the old W98SE days if I tried to use anything but a mic or Real Player to record from into Audition. It couldn't handle Winamp either - course that was nearly 10 years ago and audio has advanced in nearly every PC I've had but this one.
Do you mean to tell me that in this day and buying a new laptop in 2011 the soundcard is this crappy?
Existing audio that I try to play is herky jerky and goes in & out and likewise sounds just as crappy.
I'm in radio - and planned on using this for work when I'm in the field - what I have is completely useless. I've used the laptop maybe 4 times - all of them trying to remedy the multitude of sound and audio issues that it has to mostly no avail. I get one thing working - and it screws up other aspects of the audio and sound.
Really regretting buying this laptop...........

You could try reinstalling the sound driver.
Conexant Audio Driver(v8.51.2.51; 07-25-2011; 59.4M)
Fn+3 and Fn+4 control the volume.
If you can't solve your issue and no one in the community can help, contact support to speak with a tech support agent at (800) 457-7777.

Satellite L655-S5150 Mic problem.

Waiting for a response - ray
When I try to record video / sound with my lap, the first pieces of sound comes clear but after 5 seconds or so, the sound goes down, when I want to record myself playing guitar, I can only hear the first 10 seconds, after that the mic "adapts" to the sound or something and lowers itself down, so the sound of the recording starts going down until it mutes and only lets very hard sounds get in the recording.
Sorry for my English,

Satellite L655-S5150
Ray
Reinstalling your Toshiba supplied sound driver is a good place to start and should not hurt anything. Download this file to your desktop and double click to install it.
Conexant Audio Driver(v4.119.0.60)
But, the proper method is really going to depend on the sound recording software you are using. What software are you using to record yourself playing guitar? Are you only recording through a microphone? Are you using the computer's built-in microphone?
