HP Z620: Z620 Workstation - Bios Rev 3.88 A Fn buttons does not!

Hello

I recently got a strange problem with the Bios on my workstation HP620.

Keyboard is "Microsoft 4000 ergonomic keyboard".

Although the F5 / F10 keys normally work in Windows 10, they no longer work in the system Bios.

means I can't save the changes that I'm doing here. I can spend all the options, from disabled to enabled for example,.

but as I need to hit F5 or F10 to make/save the changes, and not works keys Fn, I can't change anything in the Bios now.

What could be?

Reason may not be the Version of the Bios or the keyboard, as I already brought it changes a few months ago.

Thanks for any help

Chris

Maybe for your interest, in case this appears on other systems:

reboots, manually install the new drivers and reconnectings did not work, I've been just the mouse and keyboard, so

Updated Windows drivers, this solves the problem, seems to be a problem of port driver.

    Hi guys,.

    I recently got a BIOS corruption this morning based on the indications of 2 key CAPS LOCK flashes. This happened after an accident caused by an UPDATE and a QR code on the page.

    I tried to use the resolution by pressing the logo WINDOWS + B, but it does not work. Is it because of Windows 10 or?

  • Satellite A500-138 - lighting buttons does not work even in the BIOS

    Hello.

    I'm just curious to know if anyone else has a problem with the (play/pause excatly) multimedia keyboard backlight? Mine died today, and there is nothing I can do to make it work again.

    The key still works, but when I turn on the backlight, backlight on everyone, but the play/pause (the backlight of the other keys work, touchpad and Satellite logo too).

    I use Windows 7, but the problem persists even in the BIOS.

    I think the backlight of the button is just dead.

    I have to admit I'm really disappointed with this laptop. Config is great, design and are also involved, but I can just take the couine noise that makes C2D (RMClock, one utility, I know that to solve this problem, does not recognize the A500 motherboard) and the fan almost never works to 70%, and now that the backlight...

    If the backlight of the multimedia key stops working after 3 weeks of use, which will be in the future? It's too scary to think ;)

    I was really excited by Toshiba, but day after day I come to the conclusion, that it is the first and the last laptop that I bought at Toshiba - never had similar problems on other laptops, same nonames.

    Of course, I know that I can has sent for fix, I guarantee (and wait about a month to get a backlight fixed stupid). But why hell not the backlight stoped working, if LEDs vitality is long as hell? It can mean two things: I really don't have a chance, or Toshiba did not pay too much attention to detail during production A500s. And after 3 weeks of use, I fear that the second option is much more likely...

    Then, someone has a feeling similar to this topic? And someone has a problem with backlight?

    Hello

    He damage of s to hear that your light has stopped working, but I think that it s just a software problem.
    I have a Satellite A500 equipped with buttons of enlightenment and everything works great with Vista and XP I m very satisfied.
    Unfortunately until that yet I didn't test with Win 7.

    I doubt you want to send this laptop for ASP, as I said, there seems to be a software problem and you can find it easily
    You must set the notebook to factory settings I mean that you must use the recovery disc in order to get the same State as on the first day of purchase

    Moreover, I visited the European driver of Toshiba page and, unfortunately, I didn't see no Win 7 drivers for this series at this time
    I guess that Windows 7 drivers will be released in the near future.
    So I wonder how you came to the button illumination because this feature requires the Toshiba driver and tools as well as the drivers aren't there?  :|

  • VmWare Workstation 7.1 - Unable to P2V and seems does not support disk Acronis image images

    Hello.

    I'm trying to convert my computer into virtual machine using the Conversion Wizard in the VMware Workstation 7.1.

    My hardware is: Intel Core i7-920/6 GB of RAM/2x0.5Tb HDD/ATI HD4800. OS = Windows 7 x 64 Ultimate.

    I need to convert only 1 partition on disk 1 which has the OS and all S/W installed. The partition size is 150 GB allocated space = 72G, before the conversion has been defragmented and check-disked (chkdsk/f).

    The location of the target is a 'new virtual machine', located on a huge USB - HDD (K:\VM\vmWsXxx-WI7\), of course - I have access to all drives and places, and of course - there is enough free space on the target disk.

    The problems:

    (1) when I am trying to convert all the timeI'm getting the"failed to take.
    Instant error message of the volume of the source. In a log file I also see this message - "
    Vsnap didn't"

    admin rights.

    Purpose (!) I am connected with a user who belongs to a local "Administrators" group. And 'VMware Agent Service' service is running on the same user account. So, I guess - it must be enough to make Vsnap has all the permissions it needs! :-\

    (2) I also tried another way of P2V - I created a disk image of my partition with an Acronis True Image Home 2010 and tried to put this file to disk image as the source for the conversion of VmWare Wizard. But he reportedthe error - 'file may be corrupt or format not supported ". Makes me think that there might some bugs - in Acronis image that makes the supporting incompatible disk images or VmWar!

    My question is - HOW to with SUCCESS CONVERT MY COMPUTER to VM using a VmWare Workstation 7.1 or any other tool?

    Sub question is - why declare VmWare disk support Acronis image images but does not in a real?

    Or (if it supports their) there may be an incorrect error message - "file may be corrupt or format not supported". Maybe he should point out something else.

    What I tried:

    ensured all need services began a) this:

    net start

    UFAD-ws60

    net start "tcp/ip netbios support.

    net start swprv

    net start vss

    (b) I run shell commands - "writers vssadmin list,"vssadmin list shadows"- the two commands work fin, so assume VSS working properly."

    (c) have tried to run this long shell script

    CD %systemroot%\system32

    net stop vss

    net stop swprv

    regsvr32 ole32.dll

    regsvr32 vss_ps.dll

    vssvc /Register

    regsvr32 /i swprv.dll

    regsvr32 /i eventcls.dll

    regsvr32 es.dll

    regsvr32 stdprov.dll

    regsvr32 vssui.dll

    regsvr32 msxml.dll

    regsvr32 msxml3.dll

    regsvr32 msxml4.dll

    BTW, I got a lot of error messages about this script:

    • The module "swprv.dll" was loaded but the call to DIIRegisterServer failed with the error code 0 x 80070715.

  • The module "eventcls.dll" was loaded but the call to DIIRegisterServer failed with the error code 0 x 80070715.

  • The "es.dll" module has been loaded but the DIIRegisterServer entry point was not found.

  • Make sure 'es.dll' is a valid DLL or OCX file and try again.

  • The "vssui.dll" failed to load module.

  • The "msxml.dll" failed to load module.

  • The "msxml4.dll" failed to load module.

  • MSXML.dll, msxml4.dll and vssui.dll it is not a surprise because these dll does not exist on Win7 x 64 in the %SystemRoot%\System32 directory.

    I found msxml4.dll in SysWow64 - registered. But msxml.dll and vssui.dll are really do not exist on Win7 x 64. Then, for sure - this script itself is the problem!

    What other options I do P2V conversion?

    Are there configuration problems more can I fix it to make the work of P2V conversion?

    Kind regards

    Dmitry.

    PS please see logs 2 closed - system directly, 2nd - diary of the conversion attempt using Acronis True Image Home 2010 disk image works 1 journal of P2V conversion attempt.

    using regedit is possible

    You obviously did not read

    Select HKLM, then Menu > file > load hive.

  • HP ENVY 360: Used aswr Forum to install the update to the Bios of HP laptops, but SUP Assist does not recognize

    The laptop BIOS update failed in the support Assistant.  Has found the solution on the Forum, which has successfully installed.  Support Wizard reports that the update must be installed after the reboot to finish installing the bios update.  Why can't support assistant recognize the update is complete and it's a matter of remove the updated rating in SA and display it as was not?

    HPSA can be buggy sometimes. I would dismiss the alert about the BIOS.

  • After BIOS update numpad on my Satellite C850 does not work correctly

    My numeric keypad started to go crazy. What can I use are "0.369* - + button"home"end touches PGUP and PGDN.

    The keypad light is on and I can't turn it off. whenever I do what it s like I m by pressing the FN key and whenever I press NUMPAD 1 it always typing gibberish words when I press NUMPAD 2 he does what than done F12 key and so on for numpad 4,5,7,8

    All this happens after I updated my BIOS and has never been a spill of liquid on the keyboard.
    Any idea on this freaking problem?

    Hello

    I can't imagine that this problem could be linked to the new version of the BIOS.
    Maybe it of a simple bad luck that this keyboard problem appeared after the BIOS update.

    From my point of few, it looks like malfunctioning hardware keyboard.
    But to confirm this diagnosis, you should try workarounds.

    * 1 * workaround: first enter the BIOS and set its default value.

    * 2nd * solution: disconnect the power adapter, remove the battery, hold down power button / stop along 30 sec. Finally, reconnect the two devices.

    * 3rd * workaround: connect the external USB keyboard and test functionality.

    In case the USB keyboard would work correctly, the problem is related to the fault of the internal keyboard.

  • 10.0.4 Workstation introduced "internal error" If vmware-authd service does not

    The v10.0.4 comes out must do more teleworkers laconically "solve the problem of memory on ms - win 8.1. He appears to have introduced some new internal dependency that requires the vmware-authd service always runs even in cases that worked very well in v10.0.3 without it.

    Species: Win7 x 64, guest host of XP Mode any cut down to the bare material (no usb in particular). Used to work under Workstation v10.0.3 with none of the VMware services started on the host computer. After the v10.0.4, it fails from the start with a box of "internal error." Manually start the service vmware-authd before starting the virtual machine to operate again.

    I hope this fix "windows 8.1" could itself be fixed as to not penalize anyone. Thank you.

    Hi dxiv,

    I just checked: the only change between the workstation 10.0.3 10.0.4 for Windows is the landmark of memory Windows 8.1, and it has absolutely zero overlap with Win7 host or anything related to vmware-authd.  There is absolutely no change of workstation itself that explains what you describe - certainly nothing intentional!

    You launch Workstation via "Run as Administrator"?  Are you sure that nothing has changed in your environment it (anti-virus, etc.) because of the change in behavior?  If you temporarily switch to Workstation 10.0.3, is the expected returns behavior?

    See you soon,.

  • VMware Workstation 10 bug: DVD SATA drive does not start if we disable the floppy drive in the VMware BIOS

    Hello

    I use VMware Workstation 10, and I found a bug:

    With the all-new virtual machine (for example with Windows 8 x 64), if I choose a hard SATA and SATA DVD drive in VMware and I have to disable the floppy drive in the VMware BIOS, Windows 8 (or Windows 7) ISO does not start.

    If I come back in the BIOS to enable the floppy drive once again, my ISO boot.

    If I use the DVD IDE drive in VMware options, no problem if I disable the floppy drive.

    With "EFI mode", no bugs.

    Please, can you solve this problem? Thank you

    2. on screen funtion buttons that appear at the top of the screen when you press the Fn key no longer not apear
    3. the touchpad lock / unlock button does not work, and even by pressing Fn + F9 doesnot lock

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    First one comment:
    * I am updating my laptop regularly whenever I get alert through TEMPRO or Toshiba service center. *
    That s is nice, but certainly not necessary. When the system is working, do not touch or change anything. Maybe stupid sounds now, but I recommend you to remove the TEMPRO system. Believe me you don't need. I have 2 years old Satellite A300 and original BIOS. It works perfectly and I don't want to take any chances and to change what anyone. Since last month, I have the Satellite U500-1EX and will do the same. TEMPRO is already removed, and I am happy with the factory settings.

    All that you have done is OK, but at least you can try to reinstall entire OS now using HDD recovery option (F8 at startup) to see if everything works well again. Sorry, but if this will not help, I think that you need the BIOS downgrade to the old version.
