    This has been covered a lot. A BIOS update may be an option to solve the problem of keyboard mapping, you can change your keyboard shortcuts to reassign the digital keypad input to be a paragraph return or you can try simply by changing the State of the numlock - if it is on, turn it off and vice versa. Withthis problem most of the systems that seems to change the function of the two keys back and forth between the enter alpha and entry number.

  • Satellite Pro A120: I have problems with the installation of the graphics driver for W2k

    I installed windows 2000 on an A120, the system is fully packed and service updated before I even start to install the necessary drivers, I am unable to restart the system. I once, install as recommended drivers that I have problems with the graphics driver because it will not be installed because it requires a reboot and then I can't install new programs that require a restart that the driver has not been installed correctly.

    The laptop is a Pro A120, age of 1 week and came with XP home, because of this toshiba will not offer me support I changed the o/s even though they obviously support 2000 on this laptop, because they provide the drivers.

    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello

    The drivers of Toshiba W2k for Satellite Pro A120 have been published and are ready!

    But please pay attention to the Toshiba drivers.
    There are two different sets of Satellite Pro A120, with different drivers W2k!
    After choosing the good laptop and download the drivers please follow the proper installation order that is indicated in the document "installation instructions"! Check it!

  • I ran CHKDSK, the report tells me I have problems with the file system, usn journal. ___

    I ran CHKDSK, the report tells me that I have problems with the sys file. I ran CHKDSK/F, it is said it fixed the problem but I ran CHKDSK again and it shows that the same listed the issues.

    Describe how you run chkdsk.

    That is what the report said: you have problems with the sys file?

    CHKDSK examines the disk space and use of the disk for the table of allocation of files (FAT) and NTFS file systems. CHKDSK provides information specific to each file system in a situation report. The report shows the errors found in the file system. If you run chkdsk without the /f on an active partition command line option, it can report errors because it cannot lock the drive. You should use chkdsk occasionally on each disk to check for errors.

    If you run chkdsk from a command prompt while Windows is running, it can report errors or it may not report errors - and it may report different
    Errors each time you run.  If this is the case, it could just be the way you run chkdsk.

    Here's how Microsoft explains this observation:

    "... CHKDSK may report that the disc is damaged, even when there is no
    current real corruption. This can happen if NTFS happens to modify
    areas of the disc on behalf of some programme activities that CHKDSK is
    review at the same time. To check a volume correctly, the volume
    must be in a static state, and the only way to ensure that the State is
    to lock the volume. CHKDSK only locks the volume when /F or/r (which
    involves the 'F') is specified. For example, you may need to run CHKDSK more than
    time so that it can complete all the steps in read-only mode. »

    If you run chkdsk from a command prompt, you are not the necessary static state and you can encounter errors "when no real corruption is present. This is how it works when you use this way.  Any changes made to a NTFS file system modifies the USN Journal.  If you are not in a static state, your USN change Journal probably all the time, so what you see (says something like that) can be quite normal.

    Two ways to ensure that you are in a static state is to run chkdsk from the Recovery Console or to schedule a chkdsk to run the next time that the system
    Restart by answering Yes to the question:

    Would you want to check this volume to be the next time the system restarts?

    If chkdsk reports errors when running in a static state, the errors should be investigated, resolved or explained.  This may take several
    chkdsk runs all of the issues and some problems cannot be resolved by chkdsk.

    If chkdsk runs the next time the system is restarted, the activity and the result will be displayed in the application event log.  Look in the Application log for
    Winlogon events and a source have the date and the duration nearby time chkdsk.

    It is in fact a chkdsk additional reading if you want to learn about it and it will explain everything you see and why your expectations exceed reality.

    Hello! I have problems with the Illustrator. I link images, close the file, but when I opened again all the links is not respected and turn to the software! Linked images are PSD files, apparently without any problem. Anyone?

    Thank you, but the problem was simple: the box to save the file was with the option 'include linked files' and I do not understand. I never click on this option, but I discovered that my friend had clicked on this (we have both worked with the same campaign files).

    And as for the pdf compatibility, I thought this could be the cause of the problem and I have enabled sometimes and try to save it again, but it wasn't the cause. And Yes, the file remains much better with less than half the original size ():
