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.

Problem with updating bios toshiba satellite l655-s5144

Hello first of all having a good day, four months ago a problem with my laptop toshiba satellite l655-5144 I have something crazy ,happens that when starting Windows 7/8 freezes there and I can not access windows, I thought it was an error of hdd, but I think I'm surprised that it is not, since changing the hdd and still gives the same problem of being paralyzed in Home windows, all this began to update the BIOS to version 2.8 that turned out to be the operating profit that was for windows 8, not sure if this is due to the problem but I've tested the ram, hdd, cpu, etc and everything about the hardware works well and gives no problems, I think that the problem was caused by updating the BIOS to version 2.8, my question is whether you can return to the factory version was 2.2, or at least the previous version to 2.8 which was the one I worked thanks for your answers and spend time helping me, is the agradesco much.
And sorry for my bad English.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello and thank you for coming to see the problem I had with my laptop, that seems to fix the problem so far, I hope q not refreeze operating system again, and I could restore the BIOS to version in which was when purchased.
If anyone has the same problem as I leave then follow these steps:
1.Find BIOS version with which acquired the laptop
2. Use of mnetodo booted by CD.
3. Insert the CD from the boot.
4. Upon resumption of the program ran hidden PC (that I saw no message)
5. After restart, windows restart again and enter the bios to see if it had changed the version of this and it turned out was successful.
Well I hope this problem the laptop again, and thank you for deigning to read at least my problem.

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 Sound Stopped Working

So, yesterday it was working fine. Around 7pm, the volume stopped working. I would turn it up and everything, NOTHING happened.
Now I can't even open the volume thing. It's just an icon, that when i click on, nothing happens anymore.
What do I do?

The probable reason none of the regulars have responded to this thread is that none of you have posted your full model name/number like Satellite L655-S5065, or your products part number like PSK2CU-00V001. Look on the Toshiba label on the bottom of your computer. We can probably safely assume you have Windows 7 64bit, but we really need your OS Version as well.
Let's try a proper system reset. Power off your system, unplug everything including the AC, remove the battery, press and hold down the power on button for 30 seconds, replace battery and AC, power on, at the Toshiba logo press the 'F2' key to enter BIOS Setup, in setup press 'F9' to load setup defaults, press 'F10' to save and exit, then try to boot into Windows again, and then see if this brings your sound back.
If that does not work, reply with all the above info for your individual systems.

Toshiba Satellite P875-S7310 second HDD question

I just purchased a Toshiba Satellite P875-S7310 (http://us.toshiba.com/computers/laptops/satellite/P870/P875-S7310/) and was hoping to install a second hard drive (SSD) to improve load times and boot times. As I understand it is rather wasy to install a second SSD into the P875-S7102, as it has a second hard drive bay, but I'm unsure about the P875-S7310. Technical support hasn't been of much help to me so I figured the second place to ask would be here. Does the Toshiba Satellite P875-S7310 also have a second HDD bay or will I need to do something like remove the DVD drive and buy a HDD caddy to install a SSD into this laptop?
Thanks a ton if you can provide me with any information,
Nianni150

The problem with those spec sheets is that they don't list the P875-S7102 as having a second hard drive buy, but in in fact does. It also seems to be compatible with whatever the bios firmware is and allows a SSD to be run seperately.
For reference here is the second hard drive bay for the P875-S7102 that was confirmed on this forum to function. I've attached a picture of the back of the P875-S7102 I've ordered which seems to have the same configuration. I guess my question is if anyone knows whether or not the BIOS supports a secondary hard drive and if there is a SATA connection. I was hoping to buy the SSD now and have it arrive at the same time as the laptop. but I'm hesitant to do that since I'm unsure whether it will work or not.

Satellite L650-07U (PSK1EC-07U00Q)
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.

Toshiba Satellite P505D-S8935 - Memory Question

I am having a problem with several programs running in the background when I have Firefox running with about three or four tabs open. It seems as if I don't have enough memory (I think) to run photo-editing software like Photoshop. How can I increase memory to handle these? This laptop appeared to be loaded with memory when I first looked at it, but now I'm thinking it can't handle what I need to do. After re-reading the specs, it says "This elegant laptop computer out performs even the most powerful desktops, thanks to its 2.2-GHz AMD Turion Xs Dual-Core Mobil Processor RM 74 (1MB L2 Cache), 4GB of DDR2 800MHz memor (expandable to 8GB), and a huge 400GB 5400RPM SATA hard drive."
What do I need to purchase to keep my laptop from freezing, lagging videos/audio when view on different websites, inability to control my external mouse (it jumps all over the place) and to run multiple photo-editing software applications at the same time?
Thanks in advance for any help or suggestions.

Upping the ram to 8gigs will run you about $400 to $500 bucks (4gig sticks are rather expensive). If it was me I would look into optimizing the system rather than adding more ram. Make sure all of your drivers are up to date, run a chkdsk/r on your hard drive to make sure there are any problems there. Clear out all of the temp files that just waste space. Also check out BlackViper's website to see what services you can safely run without to increase performance.
I'm sure that Jerry_Lippey will be along eventually and add his very knowledgable ideas on this subject. He's our resident Windows Guru.

Toshiba Satellite L655-14F don't read CD/DVD..

I've been having trouble getting my DVD drive to read CDs . I think it all started after I downloaded iTunes. When I insert the CD it stays inside with a little noise then nothing else happen, I tired troubleshooting and reinstalling the driver but the problem is not solved yet.. Thanks!

I had almost the sameproblem. There's a site http://gur.in/ which is excellent. They steered me to this, and fixed my cd/dvd drive on their website. On the home page click on RESTORE MISSING CD DRIVE, Ii fixed my drive as soon as I ran it. It's safe also. Good Luck. Camey1

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?

How do I install Ubuntu on a Toshiba Satellite L670D-102

Hello
I have been trying to load Ubuntu 10.10 (tried both AMD64 and i386 versions of Desktop Edition) onto a Satellite L670D-102 using a Live CD. The CD spins for a while, there is some activity on the hard drive and then I get a flashing white cursor (a hyphen) on a black screen. I left it all night and it remained the same. I tried with a 'live' usb and again, no boot. The cds and usb work in other machines running both amd and intel cpus.
The sort of questions that spring to mind are:-
Is there some security or other setting within the cmos that prevents anything other than Windows being loaded?
Are Toshiba simply anti- Linux and I need a new machine?
Do I need a special bios to run Ubuntu?
Any help in resolving the issue would be welcome.

Hi
I use a Toshiba Satellite L655. It came with a Win7. The first thing I did after buying it was to wipe out Win7 and install ubuntu 10.10 on the entire hard disk (not a dual boot or Wubi install). Now I want to try out ubuntu 11.04 beta from a live usb and I am trying to change the boot order. The laptop doesn't boot from the usb drive. I am unable to enter the BIOS. I have tried pressing ESC, F2 etc while switching on the laptop. So far, I have not been able to access the BIOS setup.
I have tried googling and I read about Toshiba's "legacy-free" laptops. But am not sure if mine is such a one. Now, I don't have Win at all in my laptop. I have only ubuntu 10.10. I need to access the BIOS setup and change the boot order so that my laptop boots from the USB drive. How do I do this?
Any guidance would be welcome.

Toshiba Satellite L655-S5106
Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit
Received brand new 3 years ago but rarely used. About 6 months ago, I received what most people are calling the BSOD. Never bothered to fix it at that time, but occasionally searched the internet for all the possible solutions. Still BSOD. Purchased from Toshiba the Recovery Media for the L650 Series (3-disc set). Inserted Disc 1 and tried to boot from CD. pressing "C" key. Still BSOD. For no reason, tried the F2, F8, F10, F12, and "0" key as well but still BSOD.
Don't know if this info is relevant or not, but the BSOD or trouble happened after the computer ran out of power while unattended with a DVD in the drive.
Also, (irrelevant or not) when trying to reboot laptop using "F" keys or "0", the laptop will turn on, fan will turn on, and then fan will turn off immediately. With the Recovery media in the drive, the fan turns on and stays on, but still BSOD. Same thing happens whether the battery pack is connected or not.
Very little knowledge with Windows OS and computers. Didn't know at the time 3 years ago that the OS was already installed and came without CDs, and didn't know that I had to make a recovery CD in case of situations like these.
What is my next move? Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Thank you

How to switch off the LCD on Satellite L655-1JV?

Hello!
I have a *Toshiba Satellite L655-1jJV*, and I would like to know how can I *switch the LCD off*. I've tried to use the F5 key, but it doesn't give me the option to change (always the LCD on unless I connect an external monitor .
Of course, I mean, switch the lcd off while, for example, I got the monitor up, and I'm listening to music...
I'm really looking for the answer!

In users manuals document is clearly described when you should use FN+F5 key combination and it has nothing to do with switching LCD off.
If you dont need display and it should be OFF while you are listening music please change display settings in power options. In power settings there is option Turn off the display. Set it to 1 minute and everything will be OK.

Satellite L655-S5107 - No battery detected after Win 8.1 installation

I install windows 8.1 on my Toshiba Satellite L655-S5107, battery with an x ??appears in the description says "no battery is detected".
Why is this happening? Do I need a driver or software?

Hi
Possible solution:
Go to device manager, right click and uninstall "microsoft compliant ac adapter"
Then go to action and scan for new hardware.
Now the battery should be found.
Sometimes an additional reboot would be neccessary.

Satellite L655-1EM - why does LED flash all the time?

I bought a Toshiba Satellite L655-1EM this afternoon, and since I've had it on one of the LEDs won't stop flashing.
It's the one next to a short fat cylinder.
Any help would be much appreciated, I even turned everything off and it still flashed!
My old laptop didn't do this.
The LED is really bright so it's very noticeable, and it even flashes in hibernate mode!

Every time when some info must be read from HDD the LED will blink and show HDD activity.
I cannot understand why do you wondering when HDD blinks. It is logic that from time to time something will be read or written on HDD, even if you dont do anything.
Do you know how many background processes run on your notebook?
Please dont make big thing with this. It is nothing unusual and quite normal.
