Toshiba Satellite C655D-S5130 frequently crashes

I have a Toshiba Satellite C655D-S5130 (Windows 7 Home Premium SP1) and it frequently crashes. Antivirus doesn´t detect problems.
Most of the computer crashes occur because the network adapter is disabled often without my intervention. Please see the attached files.
However, sometimes the system crashes without this problem occurs with the adapter
Can you help me?

Toshiba Satellite C655D-S5120 not recognized by support

Bought new Satellite C655D-S5120 at Staples. Went to Toshiba to check for any updates. My laptop is not even recognized on the support site. To update my laptop is their another model number I should be using.

If the serial number is not detected by Automatic detection you can find drivers manually.
Maybe you have the same A200 as friend of mine. His notebook has part number PSAE6E.
To find right drivers please visit Toshiba download and support page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > Support & Downloads > Support Homepage and at the bottom you will find link Download drivers.
Go there and choose your notebook model with right short model number.
If you need more help please let me know.
BTW: have you tried to find right drivers on Toshiba France support page?

Toshiba SATELLITE-C655D-Windows 7 64bit

My girlfriends laptop has gotten to the point to where she will turn it on, and it will act like its going to turn on fine, then go to a black screen with the mouse cursor and never change.
I have tried to boot it through the hidden recovery media on the hard drive, but it did not work.
I Bought the recovery media on a disc and tried it, but have ran into the same problem as before.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If it doesn't work with external recovery media either, it sounds like a hardware failure of some sort. It might just be the hard drive, but it's hard to know for sure.

Imminent Hard Drive Failure? Satellite C655D-S5130

Recently performed a system recovery after boot failure on Satellite C655D-S5130. Recovery went fine, but now we're getting a windows error message after startup saying that we should run file backup because the hard drive reported errors and warning us of an imminent failure. Otherwise running fine. Please advise.
R&S

Everybody should already have a file backup for all of their PCs. So if you haven't already backed up your files then do it now. I strongly suggest creating a Hard Drive Image of your C drive using a reliable imaging/ghost program. If the hard drive is able to provide a reliable image this will save you a lot of heartache and countless hours of rebuilding your NEW Hard Drive.
FYI I can't count the number of Hitachi HDDs that have come across my desk from both Toshiba and the other company that sounds like bell. All with bad sectors or making clicking sounds. On the other hand...I have not seen any bad WD drives since 1999, and I have only seen a few bad Seagate drives. (1 3.5" and 1 2.5").
My guess is that you are experiencing Premature HDD Death Syndrome or PHDDDS.
If you are still within warrenty you may be able to get it replaced....when it dies...but I would spend the $$ now to get a new WD Scorpio Blue or Black and make preperations to restore your reliable image to the new HDD.
Good Luck.

Satellite C655D-S5303 will not boot from cd/dvd drive

I have already set the boot order in the BIOS to boot from cd/dvd drive first and it still goes straight to the HDD and starts Windows 7. I searched for this problem and found some people saying to switch it to CSM boot or disable secure boot but none of these options are available in the BIOS. I have it set to normal boot instead of fast so thats not the problem. Can anyone help me here? I am trying to reformat and reinstall Windows 7. I know the Windows 7 installation disk I have is good because I have used it in another computer and the cd/dvd drive works fine. I just can't get it to boot from the cd/dvd drive before the HDD.

Try setting the HDD to lowest boot priority. See Dave's solution in this message.
It's certainly easier to restore the hard disk to its original out-of-the-box contents using Toshiba recovery media. All the drivers and utilities are preinstalled in the proper order. Windows is preactivated.
If you failed to burn recovery discs, you can obtain recovery media from Toshiba. Scroll down to Get Recovery Media here

Satellite C655D-S5130 bios reset

Can somebody help me please find the jumper location of Satellite C655D-S5130. I forgot the password that was set on the bios. I need to reset it.

The problem with getting a Bios password removal from Toshiba is that it is a chargeable expense. Removing it is not covered under warranty. Beyond the loss of money, you need to spend the time in getting it to an authorized dealer or mailing it in to the Depot.
If this was my computer, I would turn on the computer and hit the F2 key to go into the Bios. Again, it will ask you for the Bios password. Try the different passwords from grandpa and see if can't get into the Bios. It will give you 3 tries before shutting down. Try again. Maybe grandpa capitalized the first letter or misspelled. If you succeed with the Bios password, it will let you into the Bios and you will be able to remove the Bios password permanently at that point.
Beyond wasting some time, you won't lose anything else. But if that doesn't work, you're going have to talk to your Toshiba repair dealer about having them remove the Bios password. Expect to be charged since it isn't covered under warranty. Finally, expect the dealer to ask for proof of ownership. They won't remove Bios passwords from stolen computers.

Toshiba offers a program (attached) for learning the serial number. It's supposed to present you with this screen.

Toshiba Satellite L650-07U, Hard disk failure and replacement

Hi all,
I have Toshiba Satellite L650-07U Laptop, Model: PSK1EC-0700Q with 4GB RAM, 650GB HD, Windows 7 Home Premium installed. At the time of first use, i made Recovery DVDs which took 4 blank DVDs using Recovery media creator.
From 2 weeks it is giving problem, at start its slowdown with every application, then suddenly it started Hard disk failure error and ask to backup important files. From that instant i did all my backup save in another portable Hard drive.
I had hiren boot CD, and ran RAM test and found it OK, and then run Hard Disk test and found few bad sectors at few certain point, As 650GB Hard disk was taking alot time of time for checking bad sectors, so i stopped that application.
First I tried Recovery DVDs to restore Windows, but it failed as Laptop DVD-Writer was unable to boot from those created DVDs (DVDs are OK as had checked it on Desktop computer DVD-ROM), Laptop DVD-Writer is also working as I test few more bootable CDs and it booted perfectly, but it is not booting from Recovery DVDs.
Than i tried to restore from Recovery partition using Factory restore settings, it erases all data and reinstall new and fresh copy of Windows 7 Home Premium. It works fine for few hours than again pops up Hard Disk Failure message again and again. I searched here in Toshiba Forum and have found similar problem with other members and finally decided that it need to replace Hard Disk with new one. As It is now two and a half month old, thats why i need to buy new Hard Disk for my Laptop.
I checked all partitions of drive using Hiren Boot CD, and had found that there are four default partitions in Toshiba original laptop drive,
One hidden partition of 1.5 GB
One hidden partition of almost 21 GB
One hidden partition of almost 12 GB
One partition of 561 GB, which was the original partition where windows 7 was installed along with all of my Data.
Now I want to replace faulty drive with a new one and have a lot of question in my mind which I need to share with you guys.
At the time of first use I installed Windows 7 64 bit edition, and made Recovery DVDs, and at second time of restore to factory setting I had installed Windows 7 32 bit. I have confusion about recovery DVDs (which is not booting from default DVD-Writer of Laptop), either it has 64 Bit recovery data or 32 bit? Or have both 64 and 32 bit Data.
Toshiba restore to factory setting without using any recovery DVD/USB is the best possible way to restore Windows 7, How can I make same recover hidden partitions from original/faulty hard drives to new hard drive partitions? Is this possible and how?
On Default hard drive there was one partition of 561GB instead of two or more partitions. Is this possible to split partitions in new hard drives instead of one big partition?
As Recovery DVDs are not able to boot from laptop default DVD-Writer, is it possible to open those DVDs on another System and copy tem in USB drive and use it for booting? If it is possible than please show me the steps for making bootable USB from these Recovery DVDs.
Thanks,
masterleous

This site is for US computers. I doubt you'll get your questions for that Canadian model answered here.
There appear to be two recovery partitions. Maybe one for 32- and one for 64-bit Windows. Or maybe one is for English and the other for French.
Your User's Manual isn't much help either. You probably need to ask Toshiba tech support in Canada.
About all I have to offer is this: Be wary of drives with advanced-format technology. See my message about that.

I tried to use System Restore, but it tells that it did not find a restore time that is good.
The main concern right now for me is to get my personal data and files from the computer. I still have other computer to use, so I am not so worried about start up the computer. I want to find out a way to first back up my personal data and files from the computer to an external devices, then try to fix the computer. Thank you.

Yes, that's exactly what you should do first. Later we'll try to resurrect Windows. This is my favorite way nowadays.
1. Prepare a thumb drive formatted in FAT32. It doesn't need to be large. This stuff only occupies 130 MB on mine.
2. Download UNetbootin to create the thumb drive.
3. Download a Puppy Linux .iso file for the operating system.
4. Run Unetbootin-windows-xxx.exe and point it to the Lupu-xxx.iso file to create a bootable drive.
5. When you power on your computer, hold down the F12 key. That should give you the opportunity to choose the boot drive.
6. For some tips, scroll down to the following sections at this web page.

Toshiba Satellite C855D-S5320 recovery help!

All the pc does is go to the Toshiba Splash screen, and then a blue screen that says "Recovery your PC needs to be repaired. A required device isn't connected or can't be accesed. Error code: 0x0000185.
You'll need to use the recovery tools on your installation media. If you don't have any installation media contact your system administrator or PC manufactuer." I have tried resetting the firmware and also holding down 0 like Toshiba instructs. However, after I select yes to get into the HDD recovery, the screen flashes white and then goes right back to the same recovery screen no matter what I do. It's very irritating when I can't even get recovery to work -___-. Someone please help me out? I don't have any recovery disks, etc.

To restore your laptop back to it's "ORIGINAL FACTORY SPECS" you must 1st access "Boot Options" on your Toshiba Satellite C855D-S5320, or similar model & here's what worked for me. Start the laptop while tapping the "F12" key. This will open your boot options menu. At the very bottom of the list is an option called "HDD Recover"...click on it if you want to be able to access your "Advance System Recovery Options" where you'll be given new options allowing you to restore your laptop back to it's original factory specs. Please don't forget to give me "Kudos" by clicking onto my Kudos button next to my post if my solution was able to help you in any way...thanks.~: ) (((A+ Discount Computer Repair, Alb, NM)))

Memory upgrade on Toshiba Satellite L50-B-1NL

I bought the Toshiba Satellite L50-B-1NL from argos yesterday. It came with 4GB of RAM. I want to upgrade it to 8GB. Can anybody help with upgrading process. Also will upgrading the RAM void the warranty.
Regards
SD

Im not L50-B owner but I guess there is no separate access to the memory modules at the bottom of the unit.
Right?
In such case its necessary to remove the bottom plastic cover and this will definitely void the warranty!!!
If you want to keep the warranty valid, dont upgrade the RAM by yourself.
This must be done by authorized service engineer.

Toshiba Satellite L555 freezing up! (Tech Head Challenge) Please Help!

It's been happening lately. My Toshiba Satellite(windows 7 home permium 64 bits) has been freezing up with multiple, thin, multi-colored lines with a noise similar to when a sound track on a CD sticks or freezes and no mouse response or any kind of response at all. I have to press and hold the power botton and force it to shut down. I noticed it does this more often when I try to play a video game,virus scan,video call on Skype and less frequently on youtube (youtube might just be a coincidence). Sometimes after the computer restarts and I virus scan or Skype then I have no problems. I think it happens when I virus scan or skype when I have both multiple firefox and google chrome windows open at once but I cannot be sure. I've tested the theory a few times but it's inconclusive however I am confident that virus scans or video game are most likely to trigger the freeze even if they are the only thing I have open on the screen.
Sometimes I get that message in the blue box that says "Windows is shutting down to prevent damage to your computer....." The strange thing is that after I force it to shut down if I try to restart it immidiately then it will boot. All the lights will come on except the orange one in the left hand corner,the screen does not come on and windows does not load. If I leave it for 30 minutes or sometimes less after it crashed then it will restart .The funny thing is that I had this problems about 8 months ago when I tried playing a video game called A.V.A. About 2 minutes into play it would freeze with the same noise I mentioned earlier.I repeatedly tried to play the game and it happened every single time and everytime I force shut down the laptop and try to restart it right after then windows will not load and the orange light does not come on. I removed the game and reinstalled it and I never had that problem again.Since I got the laptop it has randomly restarted like 4 times and I've had it for about 1 year and 2 months but now it is just freezing up (mostly) or I get that message in the blue box. At around April of this year the game stopped working. I keep getting error reports when I try to reinstall it and my windows no longer recongnized the digital signature of the company that made the game.
I'm not sure if it's overheating,I have a hard drive or motherboard problem or if it's a software problem. I've tried:
System Restore
Defrag
Disc Clean up
Non of these have helped. I've also tried using SeaTool for Windows to try to look for errors in my hard drive and it has not found any. I've also done that thing where Windows,with the black screen and white text, check through your files for errors and corrupted stuff but that report says that it hasn't found any errors at all. My computer has no slow down in performance that I can notice. It doesn't take long to start up nor does it take long to shut down. I don't get random error reports or anything like that. It works fine except for the freezing bit.
The fan seems to be working just fine and the latop doesn't get that hot. Sometimes it freezes when it's barely warm to the touch and other times it would be significantly warmer but it would not freeze even if I have multiple firefox and googlechrome windows open. Before all of this when my game was working I use to play for hours with the exhaust at the side significantly heating up the desk and the computer would run perfectly without problems except that brief period I mentioned earlier where the game froze 3 minutes in to actually playing the game,reinstalled it and solved the problem. Yesterday it froze on me while I was on skpye and today it froze on me about 5 minutes after windows log in on youtube without the computer getting hot,just barely warm. I just don't get it!
I've try using a vaccum to clean the vents without opening the computer. I've removed and reinserted my memory just incase they were loose and I've also removed and reinserted the hard drive to be sure that it was in properly and that has not stopped the problem either.
N.B. I did do a virus scan with a trial version of Kaspersky Pure that I installed less than a month ago and it does say that I have a virus called "virus heur trojan.script.iframer" and a medium and high risk events. I've tried to remove or quarantine them but nothing happens and when I scan again with Kaspersky Pure or Kaspersky Virus removal tool they find no viruses BUT the trojan report is still there with the option of removing and quanrantine.
As I've said before I've seen no slow down in performance and it works just fine except for the freezing and the blue box message. The only noticeable problem is that both firefox and googlechrome have been just a little,little bit buggy in that sometimes I would have to close down a window and reopen it again because the pages were not loading but that's only on Facebook and a few other websites and I thnk that's because of my internet connection. As I said, I've gotten no random error reports,not from windows 7 or my browser.
Please help!

It sounds sort of like it could be related to overheating, but on the other hand, you specifically said that it doesn't always feel warm. If you're okay with backing up your files, you might want to perform a full recovery back to factory default conditions. At that point, you'd at least know whether it was due to hardware or software.
