Toshiba Satellite L655-S5150/PSK2CU-OK101S?
May 18, 2012
I recently came into possession of a Toshiba Satellite L655-S5150, Model No. PSK2CU-OK101S by way of an inheritance.It did not come with any documentation, installation, recovery or driver disks.I formatted the hard drive and have installed Windows 7 Professional. Windows 7 boots up, but it appears to use only the generic drivers for all the hardware, which, although it most of it works, it is certainly not working as well as drivers for the specific harware would. I cannot get the computer to find any wireless networks, so I cannot download any software directly to the laptop.I have downloaded drviers for the LAN, ehternet, etc., from Toshiba, and took a SWAG on what hardware was in the computer, but at least one of these drivers froze up the computer...no more guessing.
1) I have tried to find a list of the specific equipment, LAN cards, ethernet, etc, that is in the laptop without success. Is there anywhere I can find out what specific harware is in the computer without paying $150.00 to Toshiba Support? (I will,, but the cheapskate in me demands I try this first.) I have Googled the make and model for days and can only find generic specs on the quipment.I think if I can get a specific hardware list, I can download the individual drivers fairly easy of the net on another computer and load them from a thumb drive or CD.
2) If all else fails, is it worth physically opening up the laptop to examine the boards and see if the the make, maodel and type of each? It was free to me, so I lose nothing if I screw up? I would probably spend the $150.00 for Toshiba Support if it would really screw up the laptop.

My friend just recently got a Toshiba Satellite C855D-S5307 and he's displeased with the Win8 experience. He asked me to install Win7 on the machine, but I can't for the life of me get it to boot to USB. I've tried all 3 USB ports, none of them seem to like the stick. It does say "Loading Files" with the progress bar on the USB 3.0 port, but it just goes to a Win8 PC diagnostic afterwards, and tells me Windows couldn't start properly. I tried booting to USB on my Acer Aspire (Also running Win8) and it worked without error. I don't know what to do.I've set USB first in the boot order.Something odd though is that when I press f12 in POST to get into the boot menu, USB is listed along with the other devices, but the device name isn't there, unlike everything else. The menu looks like this:. USB
2. HDD/SDD.........Toshiba MK507blah blah3. ODD.

My laptop came with windows 7 installed. It crashed I guess because of a virus. It is all cleaned but I did not get a windows 7 disc or back it up. I cannot get online or on the computer. How do I get the installation disc?

manufacturer: toshiba
model: satellite l555d
os: windows 7 home premium 64 bit
cpu/ram: 2.3 ghz / 3838 mb
video card: amd m880g with ati mobility radeon hd 4200
sound card: realtek high definition audio
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 Internet (Internet 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 Internet 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. i've noticed that firefox is a little bit slower than usual but that's it. as i said, i've gotten no random error reports,not from windows 7 or my browser.

which is the driver for the touch pad slider to work, like scrolling up and down.
Answer:-
There are only drivers for Windows Vista. They should work on Windows 7.
Here are the drivers (found on Toshiba.com):
