But, keep in mind that that's because we kept the competition reasonable.

That's actually not the case, and the C655 did well in our single-app tests. You might expect the 1.6GHz Intel Celeron B815 CPU in this system to come in dead last in any of our CNET Labs benchmarks. You can live without the other ports and connections, but the lack of HDMI is frankly shocking in a 2012 laptop, and means it'll be hard to get content onto another screen if you're using this as a cheap multimedia playback device. Forget about USB 3.0, Bluetooth, or Intel Wireless Display - there isn't even an HDMI port. The left and right mouse buttons are large, together being wider than the pad itself, but their convex plastic shape wobbles under even light clicking.ĭon't expect too many, or really even any, frills on the Satellite C655. A separate number pad sits to the right of the keyboard, which probably counts as a featured "extra" on a $399 laptop.įor a 15-inch laptop, the touch pad was surprisingly small, although two-finger gestures were a lot zippier than I expected. The keys feel shallow and clacky, with a lot of flex near the middle of the keyboard, but key size and overall placement are good. Its keyboard has wide, flat keys that run up against each other, in sharp contrast to the island-style keys found on nearly every other current laptop (including Toshiba's other models). The past six months or so have seen a real trend toward better designs, materials, and workmanship in even inexpensive laptops, thanks in large part to reasonably priced ultrabooks, making this system look and feel even more low-budget.

For simple e-mail and Facebook-surfing, it'll suffice, and I found its battery life was surprisingly good (not that it has any high-end components to power).Īll those points remain true, with an additional caveat. To be fair, the Satellite C655-S5542 runs, if slowly, and even plays back HD video. Usually when playing in price ranges this low, I'd suggest looking at an 11-inch ultraportable, such as HP's dm1z, where the limited performance would feel more reasonable. Either would be a much better mid- to long-term investment. Standard Core i3 i5 systems can be found for not too much more - Lenovo has some good deals on its Essential G570, currently $499 for a Core i3 model and $559 for a Core i5. Yes, Intel still makes Celeron chips (and Atom chips, as well), although it's hard to think of a situation where we'd strongly recommend one. Instead, it has an Intel Celeron B815, a dual-core chip that runs at 1.6GHz. Most importantly, this laptop doesn't have an Intel Core i3 or i5 CPU, not even last year's version. There are much newer versions, but for some reason, the old driverĢ) right click the file to extract it to a folder of the same name (do not double-click as the automatic installation will fail)ģ) double-click on folder Audio4.8.0.0, then double-click again on subfolder Audio4.8.0.0 if presentĦ) recommend to double-click on file BD16HAa.inf to check if your sound Hardware ID is listed under, should be HDAUDIO\FUNC_01&VEN_14F1&DEV_5047&SUBSYS_1179FF31ħ) close BD16HAa.inf file if opened in step 6, then simply double-click Setup64.Of course, a few corners are cut at that price.
#TOSHIBA SATELLITE C655 SOUND DRIVER DRIVER#
The old Audio 4.8.0.0 driver is the only driver that still works in Windows 8 / 8.1. SOUND CARD: The biggest issue of Windows 7 & 8 32/64-bit is that there is no sound. I am using a Sparklan GN-WS30N 802.11n using Ralink RT2860 chipset that works in 10.
#TOSHIBA SATELLITE C655 SOUND DRIVER DRIVERS#
Many of the native drivers for Windows 8 / 8.1 will automatically be installed.
#TOSHIBA SATELLITE C655 SOUND DRIVER INSTALL#
You will need this to install some of the Toshiba utilities. I do recommend using either a USB flash drive or DVD disk to do a fresh install of Windows 8 / 8.1.Īfter installing the Operating System (OS), immediately go to Programs and Features in Control Panel.
#TOSHIBA SATELLITE C655 SOUND DRIVER UPGRADE#
Now I did upgrade my system during the free upgrade period from Windows 8.1. Of these will make your system work 100%, but hopefully this will make your upgrade just a little quicker & easier.īefore using these driver, I recommend you do a fresh install of Windows 8 / 8.1 32 or 64-bit regardless if you are using XP, Vista, 7 32 or 64-bit systems. Many of these listed are from other users, but there may be some additional drivers many may not know about.

I have listed here some basic drivers you can use for your P100/P105 systems for Windows 8/8.1 and 32/64-bit to work. Wanted to share some observations and any issues I came across. Now that I have newer systems, I have experimented loading Windows 8, then upgrading to Windows 8.1. (No longer available as the Toshiba Forum has been discontinued.)

I also have a post out for Windows 10 drivers. I made an original post with my now ancient (12 year old) Satellite P105-S9722 back in 2009 & 2011 for Windows 7 64-bit drivers.
