Fn key/multi-media keys do not work on the Satellite A100-VA9

This laptop came with Vista.
I however don't like Vista too, so I installed my XP (dual system boots).
Now, I have tried all the XP drivers for my model of website of toshiba and still can't find the driver for the Fn key and multimedia keys. Need help...

Hello
About the FN keys you need to install the XP BIOS do FN keys work in XP without the Flashcards. If the keys multimedia won´t work since there is no available XP driver.

To download the BIOS, go here:

    Hello

    Install the VAP (value added package) and reboot the laptop.

    Then install the Support Flash Card utility and reboot once more.
    Then test the Fn keys.

    The buttons are controlled by Flash cards, so you should be able to use the buttons after a new installation of this app.

  • Multiple USB keys do not work on our Satellite A100

The installation process has started, the message usual flashed in the status line, but then the facilities could not be completed ("Der angegebene Dienst ist kein installierter Dienst", i.e. "the specified service is no installed service' - my translation).

    The problem can be reproduced with a Sony 4 GB Stick, which can be brought to work.

    BIOS update did not help, install the new TI mass storage driver (both from the Toshiba site) did not help.

    Can anyone help? Thanks in advance,
    Martin

    State of the device is visible in Device Manager?
    Do you see yellow exclamation points or some error as the Code 28 error codes?

    If Yes, then I would recommend first installing all the updates of Windows and service pack 2.
    Then remove the USB device from Device Manager. You should remove all the USB controller and hubs from the Device Manager list.
    Reboot the laptop.

    After rebooting again Win XP should recognize the USB ports again deleted and should re-install the drivers.

    In my case it worked!

    I bought a satellite A100 (PSAA9) and have a problem with my touchpad. For some reason, the keys do not respond sometimes and I have to press the Fn + Alt keys to solve the problem, and it works well. Later, he appears again and I didn't Kow why?

    The only thing I can say is whenever I press the key as alt Gr, the touchpad everything is blocked.

    HM, sounds like a very boring and weird problem. Have you tried to reinstall your system or at least a linux live CD to see if the problem still occurs if you start a different operating systems?

    If you didn t tried, then it would be useful. Maybe just a problem of software it s. But if so and the problem doesn´t want to go further, then you have a huge problem and your next step will be to put your machine to an authorized service partner. Why?

    Because if so, then you would have probably a hardware problem and you won´t be able to fix it yourself. The explanation is pretty simple and easy...

  • Video hardware does not work on the Satellite A100

    I have a satellite A100 and since my laptop has crashed by using Windows Movie maker videos do not play properly. Windows Vista has identified the problem as a video hardware error and after updating the driver BIOS and nVida as it says, it still does not work. Oddly enough, it works very well on Quicktime, but not Windows Media Player. I would be very grateful if someone get to help resolve me this problem.

    Hello

    installed a codecpack? Because how you describe this problem, it seems it s a pure software thing. If it works with Quicktime then Don t you have hardware problems.

    So, try the following:
    Google for "codecpack vista" and install it. Give feedback if it worked, otherwise you have to look any further...

    See you soon

  • For Portege 3490 AC adapter does not work with the Satellite A100-159

    I have a supply of 15V 120W car (or plane Kensington). It works very well with a Portege 3490CT. It doesn't do a thing with my Satellite A100-159 new. The power supply provides also 15 V 6 a. Can someone tell me why the Kensington work?

    Or does anyone have a diagram to a power supply adapted myself, preference of 11, 5-14, 12(4) and 24 VDC (23-28: 8)?

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    I can give t you an answer why it does not work but usually you need to use the adapter for vehicle recommended by Toshiba. Incorrect adapter may damage the laptop!
    I think that the card for Portege 3490 adapter is not compatible with Satellite A100

    That the two car/truck/Air 120W laptop charger must be compatible:
    PX1237E-1NPO
    PX1235E-1NPO

  • Touchpad does not work on the Satellite A100-812

    Hello, I just bought a Toshiba Satellite A100-812 (C. Duo, 2 GB RAM, GF 7600, Vista Premium). I disabled the synaptics driver in msconfig. After a while, I turned on the driver but Touchpad still does not work. All the fn buttons work correctly (turning brightenswith FN + F6 or FN + F7 etc.) but FN + F9 (turning the Touchpad) does not always work.
    Help, please.

    ([email protected])

    Hello

    you did a reinstallation of the driver? I think that if you have disabled it with msconfig, it should work after reactivation and otherwise, to remove this driver and install it
    Once again. (So the touchpad) driver should be available after reinstalling and restarting Windows.

    Would be recognizing a few comments if it worked. :)

  • Toshiba accessibility TACSPROP (Fn keys) does not work on my Satellite A100

    Laptop A100-097

    I am facing a problem with the extraordinary on my keyboard * FN keys * managed by program "* TACSPROP.exe*" which is located in *C:\Programmi\Toshiba\Utilities\.*
    This program does not start automatically at startup and if I manually run his way a window is also come say * "Questo sistema non Può utilizzare Toshiba Accessibility" * (in Italian: "" * cannot use this system Toshiba Accessibily * ' ").

    I can't identify the installation program appropriate for the program in the list of drivers that you provide support download page, but I can tell you that the program is in the same directory where the Software * Hardware Support * is installed.

    Please, can you provide me with the Setup program for this program? I think I'll have to try put it back.
    Is it possible, that it has been marked as a Spyware of Vista or AVG? Maybe some windows update changed something...

    Help, please!

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    These types of problems are very strange to me, and I wonder why this happen. The fact is that the recovery image (recovery DVD) is very well set up and there is absolutely no problem with the use of the FN keys. All these functions of FN keys are tested and it should work. All the necessary services will begin with OS and you must be able to use all the key functions of the FN.

    I don't want to speculate what the problem is here, but I can't imagine you have this problem on the first day.

    Now the question is: why is that you get? Using the factory preinstalled OS or you have installed your own version of the OS?

    Hey Buddy

    Today, it's lucky day you ;)
    Why?

    I have a solution for you.
    The ID_ERR_NOTINSTALLTVALZ error message due to an old version of the BIOS.

    It should Flash the newest BIOS with compatible BIOS which can be downloaded from the Toshiba driver page.

    See also this thread:
