A key on keyboard on Satellite L100 problem

Bought my L100 Satellite in July last year. Problem is that I need a lot more pressure to press the key 'a' all the others. How can I fix?

Can I get the keyboard to check why it is almost blocked? I had no problem when I bought this laptop.

If you remove all of the keyboard you will lose the warranty and I would not risk the guarantee because of the unique keyboard key.

But you can remove the unique key of the keyboard Plug and check if there is dirt or something else with a bad influence for the key mechanism.

For a replacement keyboard, you will need to contact the service partner in your country? ¦

  • Recovery satellite L100 problem

    Hello

    My laptop model is Satellite L100 and I need to reformat average recovery there. I had a disc that when I bought came with laptop

    "Satellite L100/Satellite Pro L100.
    Set of recovery DVD-ROM
    Windows XP Home Edition SP2.

    I insert the recovery DVD and start it's work.

    The black background with the word

    "Loading RAMDISK image..."

    After that...

    "Please wait."

    At the moment, I saw my pointer and portable auto restart.

    I tried several times but still the same problem.

    Is any solution to this problem?

    Thank you very much
    Raymond

    To offer a solution, we need to know exactly what happens and on this path is not easy to say why the installation of recovery stops on this point.

    Is recovery DVD OK? I mean is clean and scratch free DVD?
    Enter the BIOS settings, set the default value and try again.
    If the same happen again try to get original Microsoft installation disc and check if the installation starts fine (HARD drive should be recognized).
    You can also try to get another HARD drive and check if the installation stops on the same point.

    It's really not easy to say what the problem is here.
    Do you use DVDs of recovery for the first time?

  • Keyboard on Satellite A200 problem

    Hi, while hoping a bit of insight into what the problem may be with my Satellite A200.

    It started with one single key works does not, then one other has stopped working. Then I would press a key, but it would come with a different letter on the screen. Then it got really bad, I couldn't use the keyboard at all because of the random letters would seem I typed, eventually escalating to the point where letters would appear constantly on the screen when the keyboard has not been affected.

    Tried to uninstall and reinstall driver, did not help. Tried a usb keyboard which was great until tonight. Usb keyboard or the laptop keyboard are working when tapped, yet sometimes random letters appear on the screen.

    I was ready to replace the keyboard if it was just a problem of keyboard, but now I'm wondering if it might be the motherboard. Everyone knows the same or similar problem?

    Nothing has been spilled on the keyboard.

    Thanks for your help.

    It's very confusing when the keyboard USB doesn t work too. At first, I thought faulty keyboard, it must be, but I'm afraid there is a serious hardware problem and I don't think you can fix it alone.

    I recommend you contact nearest Toshiba authorized maintainer and ask for help.

  • Strange keyboard on Satellite M211 problem

    Hello!

    I'm Belgian and my English is not perfect, then, first of all I would like to apologize for this.

    I have a Satellite M211 of China (QWERTY keyboard) and I don't know what happened, but yesterday when I'm on to use it, I discovered that the keyboard has completely changed (when I type '9' are '39' coming, when I hit 8 here "87" to come,...), all the keys have changed and it is impossible for me to use the keyboard.

    I noticed that there was a light under the 'F10', and it was new, as when the keyboard is normal this light won t.
    So I want to know how can I solve this problem of keyboard and turn off the light (I already try to 'Fn' 'F10', this does not work).

    Thank you

    I don't know how it works on the Chinese notebook models but you try using FN + F10 or maybe FN + F11. It is important to disable this LED and a built-in keyboard.

    When activated, the keys with the grey wire marking on their lower edge are either pad keys (FN + F11) or the keys (FN + F10) slider control.

  • Keyboard on Satellite L730 problems

    Hi guys need some advice on how to tackle this problem... I'm not that old L730, my cat sitting on the keyboard and now sometimes I have to press certain keys twice (not all keys including those) to operate... it is when it happens, I restart the laptop and its fine, but next time I have restart his went back to being a pain ,
    I noticed that my language settings have changed since the English Australia (US) on the United States in English (US)... would this be causing the problem.

    By the way, have replaced the keyboard... ran scans as its no fun and updated all the drivers... This laptop is clean as a whistle, so to speak...

    Thanks for any help you can provide...

    > I noticed that my language settings have changed since the English Australia (US) on the United States in English (US)... would this be causing the problem.

    I don t think that this could provoke the question because the keyboard language settings would only change the keyboard layout.
    However, if you want to you can go back to the previous language.

    Microsoft has released beautiful instruction how to change these settings:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/258824/en-us

    But as I said above, it doesn't look like the problem was related to this setting.
    There is probably a hardware keyboard problem and you need to replace the keyboard in order to get the buttons working properly.

  • Strange keyboard on Satellite M40 problems

    My Toshiba M40 has been giving me problems keyboard quite frequently. I funny characters like NB¬A
    When I press the left SHIFT key and then the keyboard starts abnormal behavior:

    1. He moved to uppercase mode - to type letters more low, I actually have to use the caps lock.
    2. I can't use the SHIFT key to type the special characters figures.
    3. by clicking on the menu bar gives me a different effect, as if the SHIFT key is down already as it is not.
    4. press the button right shift takes me to the "Save" option
    5. I can't select a file or folder as several of them selected at the same time.

    And then let fall, shut down the computer (it does not restart at this time)
    After a while, the computer starts normally, but I'm never sure when it will start to behave badly again.
    Read about the update of the bios, so I got mine upgraded to version 1.7 of the toshiba Web site (this is the most recent they had for machines with ATI graphics card).
    Sometimes, I use an external keyboard when the problem occurs repeatedly.

    would appreciate advice on how to overcome this software / hardware problem.

    Hey Ashok,

    It is not easy to say what is causing this strange behavior, especially since it also occurs with an external keyboard. One clue is that the laptop does not restart once you stop it unless leave you for a short period. This suggests that the unit is overheating and that it may well have an impact on the unit that is causing your problems.

    I suggest that you try to give the laptop a clean to remove any accumulation of dust and debris from radiator CPU.

    Kind regards

  • Satellite L100-113. Keyboard is dead

    Hello
    I recently acquired a portable Satellite L100-113.
    I'm having some problems with it, but the most fundamental is that the keyboard is dead: no response from it either.
    It does not start, so it is clearly not a windows problem, and an external keyboard works ok.
    The obvious answer is to replace the keyboard, but given the other problems, I wanted to be sure that the fault and not only a symptom before I have throw too much money at it.
    Furthermore, I don't really see how it disconnects (I don't like to force it unless I don't know.

    Any tips or suggestions?

    Thank you.

    > It does not start, so it is clearly not a windows problem, and an external keyboard works ok.
    > The obvious answer is to replace the keyboard, but given the other problems, I wanted to be sure that the fault and not only a symptom before I have throw too much money at it.

    I think it is question of s keyboard theoretically it could also be a cable to lose (connection) between the keyboard and the motherboard, but I put t see any reasons why the cable should jump
    So maybe it s keyboard problem and it seems that a replacement could help you.

  • Satellite L100-176: does anyone have driver problems?

    Hello

    I have a Satellite L100-176 I bought 3 months ago. I started to have small but really annoying problems almost immediately and on the 3rd week got an error major ntfs.sys.

    Finally, I fixed all by myself (after spending a few days read posts on the series of forums) using software free package - How ironic. I have run different tests on the RAM and HDD - problem it seemed unlikely. I used my TOSHIBA recovery CD to reset everything, but so far I still continues to have various problems.

    The system restarts occasionally, some OS WinXP fuctions and services are not accessible. The most serious cause of things (according to MS error reports) is driver malfunctions.

    So, my question is: is this sound familiar to anyone? Are there serious problems known with the Toshiba drivers, I need to know?

    Thank in advance for back-up!

    Hello

    And factions of WinXP and services that are not available?

    After that using your laptop recovery DVD will once again have the factory settings and all should be on the first day and after the first start.

  • Satellite L100 - connection problems with a wireless internet connection

    Hello

    I had some of my Satellite L100 connection problems to my sky wireless broadband connection. My laptop detects the connection and I have a bubble appears confirming that the wireless connection is connected. However, when I open internet explore it appears with 'cannot display the page'.

    Now, the wireless works with our other non-Toshiba laptop so I know that the connection is ok but it does not connect with my Satellite. Is there something I can do?

    Try reboot you the router. In many similar situations, it helps me.

  • Satellite A200 - 1CR PSAE0E - keyboard after installing XP problem

    Yesterday, that I changed my OS to XP SP2. And now I have problem with keyboard - sliders and delete key work inproperly.

    Usually, when you stop now a key, she stops typing or move the slider to the screen - now when I get a cursor for a while, then stop and I have to wait until it stops. Other keys work fine.

    This problem appeared not on vista.

    Please help with it, I can't play any games. I have the standard xp keyboard driver. Are there different or software keyboard drivers? I don't think I've forgotten something when changing os - display installed, sound, lan, wlan, driver controls (not sure exactly what is this to), t - pad, flashcard, modem to other ideas?

    Sorry for my bad English. waiting for your response.

    Hello!

    The keyboard is no driver or additional software available. It part of the operating system.

    In your case I would try it with an external keyboard and mouse.
    In addition, in Control Panel, you can set up different things.

  • Satellite L100-179 sometimes short, sometimes does not

    Hello.

    My Satellite L100-179 is around the age of 9 months. A month after buying it is quite dead. Returned, and they replaced the card mother and keyboard. 4 months ago it does the same thing, but I left it for a day and she starts without a problem.

    Same thing happened this morning. Totally dead, so I disconnected and removed the battery. He tried again, but nothing helps. Then I put the battery and the socket and left for 20 minutes. It has sprung to life again.

    What happens here? Someone had the same problem? What is the cause for this? Maybe a faulty motherboard? The warranty runs out in 3 months so I would like to know if this is a major flaw.

    See you soon.

    Hello

    > What's happening here? Someone had the same problem? What is the cause for this? Maybe a faulty motherboard?

    Believe me, we can only speculate on the fault.
    But I'm sure that this is certainly not normal behavior and I definitely recommend the service guys asking for additional verification.

    Who knows what will happen in the next time. Maybe the laptop no longer starts? I this would not risk and would take the warranty!

    Best regards

  • Re: Satellite L100-179. impossible to activate the new WLan card inserted

    Hi all

    I bought a computer laptop satellite L100-179 wireless about 2.5 years ago.
    Last week I bought an Inter (R) PRO/Wireless 2915ABG Network Connection, this is an internal card!

    I installed the card and the latest drivers and the card worked properly under Device Manager
    When I tried to use the card after setting the wireless settings, I started to have problems.

    I then installed the software for the card help with the problem which has been the software Intel(r) PROSet/Wireless WiFi 12.1.2.0 that gave me a little more information about the problem. All the settings for the wifi are enabled except when I press Fn + F8 I get the following message:

    Wireless communication is disabled. Please turn on the wireless switch.

    But there is no switch on the side of the laptop just a plug of cache.
    I've ran out of ideas to get this working and would be really grateful for the help.
    My OS is XP home SP3.

    Hello

    I think that your Sat L100-179 is not extensible WLan.
    If this laptop has been delivered without the WLan card and the WLan switch does not exist, then you cannot use an internal WLan card!

    In this case, go to an external solution such as a USB WiFi key for example

    Hello!

    You can burn discs using another program Nero for example or this only happens with alcohol?

    In your case, I would try to remove the upper and lower filters in the Windows registry. Normally this does not solve the problems with the CD/DVD drive. Just follow the steps described in this workaround from Microsoft:

  • Satellite L100-121 - Toshiba TEMPRO warns me for nothing

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L100-121, and Toshiba TEMPRO installed.

    The icon in the system tray is usually red or orange or gray, which indicates that I have alerts, but when I click on see the alerts and click on current alerts, there is nothing there!

    Why?

    And sometimes it start with windows, sometimes not.
    Why?
    Thank you!

    Hello

    Toshiba Tempro tool always sends a notification if a new software / driver was transferred to the page of European driver of Toshiba.

    This is only a notification, and it doesn t mean that you need to update anything!

    So if your laptop is running without problem, then you don t need to update anything!
    If you wish, you can disable this software also in msconfig--> startup.
