Hi, I had the same issue with my Toshiba C660. As I wanted to protect my data I did back it up and then had the hard disk replaced by my local computer shop. They replaced the drive and even copied all the data and programs onto the new drive. What they did say before they started was that they would not guarantee that everything would copied over if the disk was failing. Cost me 50 for everything but obviously costs will vary.

Not a question

Use your OS cd or the repair cd you made.

make sure the cable connecting the display to the motherboard is seated properly. Disconnect it and reconnect it.

The Problem> Sound: Placing the mouse pointer over the ICON to the lower right of your screen should indicate the percentage of Volume your speakers are adjusted for. Right click and you get the Open Volume Mixer section. The playback devices can be your computer speakers or a separate headset with microphone. Here you can make adjustments accordingly. At the bottom are Volume Control Options that allow you to increase or decrease the audio reception. Generally, when you insert an external Headphone with Microphone into the sound port in; an automatic disconnect may occur preventing computer speakers from working. This is common with Laptops. If you lack sound, you may need to update the sound drivers, change cables, and/or check to see if the speakers work on another device.

Have you tried plugging in an external monitor to the graphics port? This would get you going again and would help reduce the possibilities of what is wrong.

I do not believe you have lost your laptop. Could be several issues, but from what it sounds like may be something interfering with your current video driver. Although a fresh install of your OS (operating system) may resolve the issue, you would need to back up every important file. Do not take an image of the HDD (hard disk drive) as the current drivers would also be reused. You can also simply attempt to dump the current video driver and allow the OS to search for another. If you have a VGA port, you can use another monitor to test if it will stay on. If an external monitor stays on, than you have a software issue which is WAY easier than losing your entire laptop. Doesn't sound like its an over heating issue. I cannot promise these suggestions will fix your issue as I dont know which OS you are using, but if its Windows, you should be able to fix it rather easily.

Recommendations from Toshiba: Windows 7 and earlier The information below is designed to help solve your microphone not working properly. This does not cover problems related to specific programs or third-party microphone hardware and software. If your laptop microphone is not working properly, ensure it is not disabled:

1. Open the Start Menu and type "Sound" in the search field.
2. Select "Sound" from the results.
3. Select the RECORDING tab and select the desired microphone. Default microphone is Realtek High Definition Audio.
4. Click "Properties" to view and modify settings.

Reloading the sound driver may resolve this issue.

1. Open the Start Menu and type "Device Manager" in the search field. Select "Device Manager" from the results.
2. Locate and select "Sound, Video and Game Controllers."
3. Identify the sound devices.
4. Right-click on each one and select "Uninstall".
5. Reboot the computer.
6. Your drivers will automatically install. Third-party drivers may need to be reinstalled manually.

Information in the link below can also assist with adjusting microphone volume. I have included the link for the Toshiba Website support: http://www5.nohold.net/Toshiba/Loginr.aspx?pid=4&login=1&alt2=ts&usertext=Microphone%20not%20working

What operating system?

Does anything ever show up on the screen at ANY point? If you shine a bright light at the screen when the computer is turned on can you see a faint image or writing?

Check teh basics first - Mute is off , volume levels are up high.

Try VLC media player. Or a different one than what you have now

insert a headset into the jack if the sound comes thru it,if sound comes into the jack then check speakers and get the speakers changed. if both the sound jack and the speakers does not work,check the sound ic on the mother board....

If that does not work, try plugging in the laptop and removing the battery. Sometimes a bad battery will cause start problems.
