Toshiba Satellite A665-S6050 Sound Crackling

As soon as I bought my new laptop, I've noticed the sound will crackle, even when muted. I've already updated the drivers and tried changing the sound qualitiy but none of that seems to work. Does anyone have any ideas?

Does this happen with headphones as well?
Try reinstalling the driver.
Realtek Audio Driver for Windows 7 (32/64)(v6.0.1.5904; 09-04-2009; 69.55M)
Do you use any external accessories such as USB devices? Are they working properly?
Has it always been like this, or did it just start happening?

I reformatted my hard drive..
No idea what you mean by that.
Did you restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media?
Did you use a new hard drive?

Satellite A665-S6050 Windows 7 Home Premium Memory Upgrade will not boot

Hope there might be a clue to assist.
Checked Toshiba support for recommended memory to upgrade from 2X2GB to 2X4GB. Ordered Kingston KTT-S3BS/4G x 2 as recommended. BIOS recognizes the memory, but Windows will not boot. Tried Safe Mode and hangs after a few seconds. Tried Repair Computer, also hangs after a few seconds. Put original memory back in and it boots fine. There was a brief flash of a blue screen once, but no dump file to be found.
To me it seems as ifthe issue is Windows, but I do not know enough about this to say definitively. Just based on the percieved behavior when Windows trys to boot (hanging).
Any ideas appreciated before I go through return and try something else.
Thanks.

he ordered from Toshiba and there memory did not work ... the kit he ordered was the one recommended for his laptop from Toshiba and ordered from Toshiba
Yes he did. But he ordered the Kingston memory that Toshiba recommended as he said...
Checked Toshiba support for recommended memory to upgrade from 2X2GB to 2X4GB. Ordered Kingston KTT-S3BS/4G x 2 as recommended. ... I tried both of the Kingston modules recommended and neither worked.
I'm suggesting that he try the Toshiba part number (PA3677U-1M4G) suggested in the spec, which is made by Axiom.

MY TOSHIBA SATELITE A665 - S6050 IS DRIVING ME NUTS! PLEASE REPLY

THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IM POSTING THIS. PLEASE REPLY . Hi I am a very frustrated 16 year old boy on the verge of pullling out my hair. this is my problem. My grandpa bought this patop last year march , he passed it down to me in may cause hes not much of a tech person, now ever since he gave me this laptop i noticed problems. in the beginning, anytime you move the laptop slighty or pick it up , if theres any audio activity going on , it will stuttter in sync with the vibration of the laptop. i thought it was the harman kardon speakers but till today im still unsure. then came the problem of my ear jack slowly starting to give up . no ear phone plug or headset plug was able to fit in fully and play complete audio, it would only play quarter or halfway in.but i overlooked these problems cause i had a usb speaker and hey, it was a heck of a laptop , then during summer when i travelled to england , the battery pack just all of a sudden got spoiled and it could "no longer hold a full charge" it could only last for little over an hour thirty minutes.so i bought a new battery pack. no problem uh? lets go on . i had a few games on my previous acer aspire one a0522 and since this new laptop had a core i3 processor that prettty much packed a punch i installed most of the games here cause i am a game freak. the games were : fifa 11 , 13 , 14 , pes 2009 2012 2013 2014 , tom clancy's splinter cell conviction , nfs : carbon , hot pursuit , need for speed both new and old ones , call of duty 4 mw , call of duty black ops II , battle field 2142 battlefield 2 , cod mw 2 burnout etc . all the games were running fine varying from low - high quality settings because of the limited vram 64 mb on the intel hd 3000. i also had photoshops cs5 and 6 . now when i resumed school everything was how it was, sound stuttering ear jack failing , now a new problem arose , whenever the computer gets a slight hit/bang to thr body , the screen goes black and it would either turn off or restart . i didnt understand this so i decided to remove some startups from ms config and all , i left the important things though like the windows 7 common user bla bla things , and the intel start up drivers as well as the realtek hd audio manager . eventually the problem got worse , when i was using it at times the computer would randomly just shutdown and sometimes it would not come on for hours to almost a day (whever i put it on the screen is just black and the hdd light does not light up) and sometimes it will come on immediately i press the power button . so i was obviously frustrated but managing with the laptop . so eventually the problem got so bad that whenever the computer started up and i ran a program , immediately the fan kicked into full speed , 5 seconds after the thing would just go off on its own , regardless of what program it was , i finally had enough and took it in for repairs . they serviced it and brought it back , everything was fine for one week then the problem started again , everything came back . so this time i went with the laptop for repairs myself and they told me the cpu was the problem that it needed replacement , another shop told me it was the cpu mother board and fan that had problems . so i dont know who to believe. BUT HERE IS A PECULIAR THING. when i run the laptop on one core (disabled multi core processing in bios) of course the cpu isnt running at full capacity but on that one core it runs for hours fine without shutting down , but it makes some games slow cause not all cores are in use .so i decided to re enable multi core processing and did this : whenever i start a program i immediately go into my task manager and set the affinity of any running programs to one core only (usually cpu 0 in windows 7) then set the affinity of the program i just launched myself to either cpu's 1 ,2 or 3 NOW THIS PROCESS IS WORKING FOR ME SO FAR but i dont know how long it would last and when i run games like fifa 13 o=with this process it plays fine but sometimes it quits in match and there is constant audio lag , but most other games run fine . i downloaded hot cpu tester pro and did the ram test , everything was fine , benchmark test , everything up to standards , but when i did the cpu test (where the test utilises the cpu to a 100% and i know it does cause i can see the cpu usage in the status bar in tassk manger) when the test goes into 15 seconds the laptop goes off again like it used to . so my conclusion is my cpu is the problem but i am still not sure so i am posting this . please help guys. thanks i have done the full system recovery process 3 times but all the problems remain. i am in africa and have limited resources please help.

Can anyone help me find a list of the ESSENTIAL drivers I need for a Toshiba Satellite A665-S6065?

Long story short: My Toshiba Satellite A665-S6065 won’t boot.
♥ I tried the Microsoft Windows 7 x64 Home Premium Recovery Disk.
♥ I tried the Toshiba Windows 7 x64 Home Premium OEM Recovery Environment
♥ I tried turning off the computer & holding down “0” until it beeps & enters the Recovery Partition.
♥ I tried turning off the computer & F8 to enter the Recovery Partition.
I've tried everything that anyone has told me to do...
So I “acquired” a Windows 7 x64 Home Premium OEM & tried to install from scratch when the message “No drivers found. Please insert/search for drivers to install before proceeding” came up or something close to that.
I need to reinstall Windows 7 x64 Home Premium OEM and the OEM disk I have isn't Toshiba Specific so it is asking for Drivers in order to install. Can anyone help me locate a list of the SPECIFIC DRIVERS I need to just get the OS in?
I've been to the Download Page for Satellite A665-S6065 but there are so many duplicate drivers, I'd be downloading all night!
[admin edit for Terms of Service violation]

The system is under warranty.
Send it in for repair.

Toshiba satellite a665 bootmgr is missing

I have a toshiba satellite a665-s5170. I got a new hard drive in today, and when I put it in, it went to the restoring screen and got stuck at "copying files" for well over 4 hours. I thought it was stuck so I restarted it, bad idea. Now it's saying
"BOOTMGR is missing
Press Ctrl+Alt+Del to restart"
I tried the 0 on start up, f8, and taking the hard drive out and putting it back in. It keeps saying the same thing. What should I do? I just put the old hard drive in and it worked perfectly, took me to the log-in screen and I was able to log in. I put the new one back in and it gave me the same error. Did I get a faulty hard drive?

Please see my reply to this message.

Toshiba Satellite A665 Sp6001L

Hello!
Well I have problem with my Laptop, recently the led on my Keyboard (like eco utility, pause/play media, etc... and the mouse pad led) don't function well... the only way to set on them, is going to the BIOS and setup the LEDS ON...
I wait for your help
cheers!

Satellite A665-SP6001L
Sometimes resetting the motherboard helps.
With the battery and AC adapter removed, close the Power switch for ten seconds.
Re-attach those, press the Power button to turn the computer on, and then immediately press the F2 key while the Toshiba logo is displayed. Press F9 to restore the BIOS default settings, press F10, and then select Yes (Exit Saving Changes). The computer will restart.

Satellite A665-S6050 Leveling Problems

I just bought a new Toshiba A665-S6050 laptop on Wednesday. On the back, there is this "thing" that is lifting up the back of the laptop so it is slanted. I'm wanting to know how to remove it so I can make the laptop level. I know there is a way to remove it because I have seen pictures of this laptop without the certain part that I'm wanting to remove. Does anyone know how to remove it?

Not 100 percent sure but I think that is the extended battery.
You can remove the battery and run it off AC and that would do it for you or you can possible purchase a standard battery.
Check to see that it is the battery, you can remove it. There is a lock and a release lever.
Good luck,

Toshiba Satellite A665 Not Shutting Down

I just recently got a new oshiba Satellite A665 while on holiday in America, and so far its everything i was looking for, except i seem to be having an annoying problem, it wont shut down after iv been playing a game, it shuts down fine when iv been surfing the net or listening to music, but after a gaming session when i try to shut it down it gets to the shutting down now screen and then just hangs there...
Anyone able to help me fix this?
Thanks In Advance

Unfortunately, it didn't nail the culprit. Ntoskrnl.exe is a Windows core file.
Can't hurt to install/reinstall this 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.

Thanks for keeping a running edit of your progress as well as your ultimate solution!
Maybe this will help other with a similar situation.

Toshibs satellite A665 keeps booting to Toshiba Recovery Wizard

Is there any way to disable this at boot. I am working on this for a pc illiterate friend who doesn't know why the recovery screen started. If I select No on the warning screen doesn't work. Neither does selecting Yes and then cancel. I was once able to get it to boot to the window login screen but restarting the computer goes back to the Toshiba Recovery Wizard.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Looks like I got it working. I powered down the laptop and ,with the a/c adapter unpluged, pulled the battery. It has rebooted to the Win7 login screen several times now.

Satellite A665-S6050

Yesterday I had a problem with my computer shutting off in the middle of working. I knew that the battery needed replacing so I had that replaced today. It still shuts off in the middle of working on something. Also, the blue wait circle is constantly spinning and blinking on and off. I can get on the internet and work but it is still spinning and blinking. Also, the bottom of the computer gets very hot but it always has gotten hot to a certain degree. I have the laptop sitting on a table top.

Hi! "Also, the blue wait circle is constantly spinning and blinking on and off". That means some thing is trying to load.
"Also, the bottom of the computer gets very hot but it always has gotten hot to a certain degree." How hot is very hot?? Have you ever cleaned the vents?? Here's a free program I use!
