    Brand new computer, never used, was too slow. Told it needed cleaning & had only been out of the box 2 times. Nothing set up. Was told I would be charged to have it checked. Refused to leave & pay for cleaning. Mark it as another Best Buy bad experience. I'm done with Best Buy.

    I purchased this laptop to stream workout videos on my tv and it is just not capable. Took it back to best buy and they said the processor is too old and would not take it back. I was just past 30 days, so I paid $245.00 for a laptop that I basically can't use. Not happy.

    • Brand response from ToshibaStaff
      Posted .

      Thank you for the review, cacky, and sorry to hear that you ran into some sort of an issue with streaming video from your Satellite C55-B5101 to your TV.

      This model has an Intel Celeron processor N2840 with Intel HD Graphics, which should be sufficient for streaming video. Without more details about the nature of the problem, I would just suggest that the most likely bottleneck for such an operation would be the networking bandwidth. A couple of things to look into include proximity to your Wi-Fi router, potential RF noise sources that might interfere with Wi-Fi signals.

      Please visit support.toshiba.com or contact Toshiba support at 800-457-7777 for more help.

      Thanks again for the feedback. Toshiba
