Run Windows Update.  It is good for the installation of device drivers that have not been found during the installation of Windows 7.

If that doesn't fix it, you may download and install the device drivers for your computer from Sony model.

  • Satellite A100-683 with Win 7 - screen brightness adjustment does not work

    Hello

    I have a model of Satellite A100-683 PSAA9E with Win 7

    My problem is that I don't have a brightness in my dashboard-> laptop Center

    I tried to install the drivers from the site Web of Toshiba (additional package, return), but stops the installation always with errors such as: value added package: PVAT Setup error

    I tried to install the drivers for Vista...

    Please help me!
    Sorry for my English mistakes.

    Hello

    The installation may stop due to system problems or the PVAT erroneous version.
    I recommend you to uninstall the installed VAP.
    After the PVAT has been uninstalled, restart the laptop.
    Now, download and install the tool small freeware called CCLeaner.
    It helps to clean the system and deletes files temporal garbage from the HARD drive.
    After the cleaning of the system registry, you must restart the system once more.

    Now, go to the page of the Toshiba UE driver and download the Toshiba value added Package for Win 7. Note! Choose the right! There are differences between the 32-bit and 64-bit version.

    Unzip the package, run the exe from installation or installation file and start the installation.
    Installation should finish properly and after new reboot, you should be able to use the function keys.

  • Re: Satellite Pro S500 - brightness adjustment does not work correctly

    On my Satellite Pro S500 (preinstalled Windows 7 64-bit) change the brightness by pressing FN - F6 or FN + F7 does not work. The other NF - f... combinations seem to work correctly.

    When I press FN - F6 (or F7) a control box to change the brightness to poster (as expected), but the level is still displayed as "1" independent of the current value (for example changed from Control Panel or with the eco utility) and it is not possible to change it with FN - F6 or F7. I just reinstalled vap and restarted the computer, but nothing has changed.

    Hi asdf.

    I put t know what s wrong exactly but normally the FN keys are associated with value added Package, but you wrote that you already reinstalled

    In my opinion, you should try a system restore to an earlier point. Maybe something messed up the registry, you can start System Restore in Windows Advanced Boot menu.

  • Satellite A660 - 11 M - brightness adjustment does not work after hibernate

    Sometimes, I find that you use F6, F7 to control brightness does not work. This only seems to happen after a fresh reboot, but after being out of hibernation.

    I am running Win 7 Home Premium 64-bit and using the latest NVidia driver (obtained from toshiba yesterday Web site): 8.16.11.8988

    A way to solve this problem?

    Hello

    From my own experience, I can say that all the FN buttons work perfectly after hibernation, standby, restart, etc.. No problem at all!

    I put t know what is the problem, but in your case would be to reinstall the package of added value and utility to Support Flash Cards. Two tools to control the FN key functions and can be downloaded from the official page of Toshiba.

    But before you reinstall it, remove older versions first. Then install VAP, restart and finally Flash Cards Support utility.

  • Product key for Microsoft Office does not work

    Hey.  The product key at the bottom of my laptop does not for my Microsoft Office 2007 check my license.  I had the computer over a year when I first tried the product key and I was wondering if he could have expired or something.  The message I get actually says it's an invalid product key.  Any help I could get with this would be much appreciated.  Thank you.

    http://www.Microsoft.com/Office/offers/default.mspx

    The product key on the bottom of your laptop isn't for Vista, Office 2007.

    You'd have a trial version of Office 2007 pre-installed on your laptop.

    To continue to use Office, you can buy licensed copy of it.

  • Brightness (key or setting) setting does not work on HP Envy17 2290nr after the loading of Windows 8?

    After the upgrade to windows 8, why the brightness adjustment is no longer works on HP Envy17 2290nr?  Went to set the charms and brightness controls do not work here either.

    Hello DJSZCZEP.  I understand you are having some problems with control of the brightness of your laptop in Windows 8.

    HP is still drivers for the update for Windows 8.   Most laptops that have been purchased after October 1, 2011 must be supported at the time.  Here a link to more information on the upgrade to Windows 8 and HP.

    The support page for your laptop does not currently listed drivers for Windows 8.  This does not mean that Windows 8 does not work on your laptop.  This simply means that some features and functions may not be available. Advanced features like the brightness control can be handled by the driver itself and require a complete driver for features.  Your the tender specifications lists the video card like the ATI Radeon 6850 M.  Here are the drivers for the 64-bit version of Windows 8.  Try using these drivers and tell me if this solves the problem.

    Keep an eye on the support page of your product for updates, including drivers for Windows 8.  I hope it's useful.

  • My Acer Aspire V - 123 Windows 8 keeps freezing and some keys on the keyboard are not working

    I'm currently using a netbook ACER ASPIRE V - 123 with Windows 8 as its operating system and it is not yet updated to 8.1.

    At first when my computer laptop while boots 'seems' to agree, and whenever I try to open a file without any content it took me about 30-45 seconds, opening a program would take me almost 45 seconds to a minute, and I think that something is not right with my laptop and when I try to open a website via my web browser and my laptop would just FREEZE and I can't do anything about it , but I hate to do HARD reset. And to add to this unfortunate scenario is that some of the keys on my keyboard are not working the letters like R, T, I, O and backspace and many others (which I don't remember exactly one by one).

    I try to read some forums on different sites and some posts to the community of MS and did several tests like starting in SAFE MODE w / NETWORKING and downloaded the software like MALWAREBYTES to find potential infections, but nothing found. I also did the start-up in MINIMAL MODE, but again, the situation was the same, but when I'm the boot without failure the filling and freezing are only decrease and I don't want always starts in mode safe.

    From now my laptop is booting in a start-up in MINIMAL MODE and I don't know what to do next, what to try next. I hope someone could lead me to the solution to this problem, I would be eternally GRATEFUL.

    Please do help me in a step by step process and if possible please guide me with pictures or screenshots because I prefer to learn things when I Visual effects on what to do.

    Thanks for patiently reading this post.

    Hi Ben,

    Sorry for the late reply, the laptop has been fixed, it seems to be a hardware problem. We disconnected the connection of the keyboard to the laptop right now I use an external keyboard to type. Cannot afford now to buy and replace my laptop keyboard, the graphics card Driver has been updated also and I've reformatted the OS

    The gel did not appear more in the normal boot and if all goes well for work this way for good.

    Thanks for the information you have shared to me, he has also been a great help.

    until next time Ben!
