Keys at random does not not Satellite A300

Hello

I hope someone can help me. I have a Toshiba Satellite A300, and for some reason, some of the keys of the keyboard have stopped working. Even in safe mode, they do not work.

Everything else on the laptop works and is as new condition. It was working fine one day, then the next day not. If anyone has any ideas as to why this happened and how to fix this, I would be extremely grateful!

Thanks heaps :)

Hello

It might be possible that your internal keyboard is malfunctioning.
You are able to use an external USB keyboard properly?
If Yes, then I would recommend replacement of the internal keyboard.

Greetings.

    Hello

    Did you change your computer?

    (a) turn on your Toshiba Satellite laptop.

    (b) press the "Fn" key on your laptop keyboard, which should set up a line of icons at the top of your screen.

    (c) use the arrow of your keyboard and the 'Enter' keys or your touchpad to select the icon that has a silhouette of a person inside.

    (d) select the icon "settings". Although it is not labeled 'Settings' by name, it will be the icon at the far right of the screen that looks like an audio equalizer, four columns with sliders.

    (e) use the touchpad of your laptop Toshiba Satellite to select the list for the media playback button that you want to reassign.

    (f) label your media new button function by typing a descriptive word or phrase in the box "Description." Then, copy the location (see 'tips') of the program you want the media button to open the box of "path of the target.

    (g) press 'Save' to configure this media button based on your new settings

    I suggest you contact the computer manufacturing and check.

  • Touchpad and energy savings does not-Satellite A350

    I installed Windows 7 64 on my laptop Toshiba A350 - 13 c.
    During installation, I used the USB mouse. After installation I noticed that the touchpad is not working. I have downloaded the driver Synaptics for W7 toshiba download site, but it did not help. Then I downloaded the original Synaptics driver from their site, but it didn't help also. In Device Manager it is dev Touchpad pointing and it looks like I'm going to work very well. The indicates even me that synaptics tray agent. However, when I click on its icon - > Accessories-> graph of pressure (or similar name - I translated it in my lang), it returns an error message: Sorry, this program requires Synaptics TouchPad device and Synaptics pointing driver. What is going on?

    I also downloaded Toshiba Value added for W7 and installed Package. HoweverPower Saver does not work (I reinstalled PVAT but he fixed nothing). On the start menu, there is no shortcut to ch, as there are shortcuts to other applications of added value package. PS the service seems to work but main program does not work when I double click on it in files\Tosh program... folder.
    What is more, I got 3 unknown devices in dev Manager. I don't know what it is because all of the dev team. (except the touchpad) works very well. I also installed Intel chipset drv., Realtek HD Audio, Intel, Ati storage chart drv. but it did not help.
    I guess that these 3 unknown devices can really be a device actually, because all are: primary system on bus PCI 32 device.

    Help, please.

    > I downloaded driver Synaptics for W7 toshiba download site, but it did not help
    Can you please tell me where you found the Synaptics driver on Toshiba Satellite A350-13 c download page
    I can t see this driver on the list.

    I don't know that laptop, you used before, but since Vista Power Saver is a little different and you don't find it in the start menu, but in advanced power options.
    I can't tell you much because I know not what drivers you have installed and that are lacking on the unknown devices. Just install all of them.

  • Airport Extreme will randomly does not

    My last model Airport Extreme will does not randomly (and too often)...

    Customers always show connected but do not have access to the internet. iOS/mac devices can * usually * connect via the utility, bouncing the router and all is well.

    There are sometimes a lot of time for the most convenient airport address connection and allow access. (Enter the password and nothing happens for a period of time...)

    I'm a computer programmer, so I've done enough tests (check connection directly on the Arris DOCSIS 3.0 SB6141 SURFboard Modem) to be * reasonably * confident, it's the most convenient airport and not the modem or my ISP (Comcast).

    There are usually about 2 dozen of connected devices (PC, tablets, phones, Roku, PS4, etc...), but at some point, only 6-8 are actually active.

    Any ideas/suggestions would be appreciated...

    If you have not yet tried, reset the extreme > reset a FAQ of base station airport

  • Bottom line keys Lenovo T430 does not

    Hello

    I have Lenovo laptop, T430, I cleaned it and closed the lid, so he went to the sleepmode, when I turned on the bottom row keys were not work - including the one above the bottom line that starts with z, also enter key.

    I used the same solution that I use to clean the screen, it should be relatively safe more T430 must be resistant to spills.

    I removed the keyboard and checked the cable and the connection to the motherboard, all was well but its still does not. However when im on the login screen, it shows as key Z, which shouldn't work, he is constantly depressed and typed my password field.

    Im running win 10 and have not had any problems.

    So that leaves me the possibility that mobo is faulty, the keyboard is defective or software partners. A few months ago dissipated my warranty if im trying to figure out until I'm sending for the technicians they will charge me if I do.

    No doubt the keyboard

  • HP Pavilion F6 / Mute key Light-Now does not?

    Hello

    A little over a week ago, I went out and bought a HP Pavilion 15 laptop-e092ea.

    It's a brilliant machine and I'm really happy with it, but there is just one small thing that has popped up.

    I'm sure many of you know, Pavilion series laptops have a mute very practice that serves to the F6 key. This key is a small LED that lights up when you press on to show that the computer is cut.  Until yesterday that the light was working fine until something came on the screen mentioning an update of the BIOS. I went ahead with the update and everything seemed fine. I then discovered that the LED was not lit when I used the key to turn off the computer.

    I tried to reinstall the audio drivers and restart the computer several times after reading some information on the forums, but nothing works. The key still works perfectly, but given that the computer is fairly new, I just fix the problem. I would take it to a repair place, but it is too small and the pricing is not fair in the slightest.

    The lights of the Caps Lock, button / stop and led for Mode without wire/flight work, it's just that touch Mute, that does not illuminate. As I said, this is a minor thing but I would be nice just to have working again.

    I am running Windows 8.1 if it's of any help.

    Anyone know how I can fix this problem? The update of the BIOS could affect it at all?

    Thanks to all those who can help you.

    Thanks for your reply.

    In fact, I managed to get the light works again after reinstallation of an audio driver using HP Recovery Manager.

    I tried to reinstall the driver using the Windows Device Manager, but it had not worked.

    As soon as I used the Recovery Manager when amber was light once more.

    Thanks for your help.

  • HP envy 15 key 'fn' 1066NR does not

    I bought a referbished envy 15 1066NR delivered without an operating system. I installed Windows 7 and noticed that the 'fn' key did not work. I thought it was a driver problem, but now I have downloaded and installed all the drivers I can think.

    In the last few days that I have upgraded to Windows 8 and after many hours of work with video drivers, finally got the system is stable. All the old drivers I had installed Windows 7 are compatible and since it was an upgrade, settled automatically in Windows 8. I always have problems with the "fn".

    That's when my friend 'Google' has been used. I found that, in the bios settings, there is a way to activate the default fn keys (pressing the f11 key is f11 but mute). This setting has been activated (f11 = mute) and I turned it off (f11 = f11) but now the fn key still does not work.

    I know that the "f1 - f12" keys work with their assigned functions because when the above bios setting has been activated, I was able to use them, but not my f1-12 keys.

    I would like to activate my fn button. I think that it needs active and should be trivial, but I don't see how.

    Please help and thank you in advance,

    -bscholt22

    OK, so it sounds like the Fn key does nothing at all - just wanted to confirm that the toggling this setting did not produce a different result.

    So, it looks that the Fn did not work right out of the box, this exact key? In this case, if you bought it refurbished at HP, always be guaranteed on this subject and could get a repair - maybe it's that the keyboard is physically not working properly. If you bought the device, refurb, please contact them and see if they will honor any kind of warranty.

  • Key wireless button does not

    I have a problem with the wireless button key. Does not. Is it possible to switch this button? Anti-piracy

    Hi Mark,

    Please contact technical support group of the manufacturer of your computer and/or forum with the specific brand, model and serial number or service of your computer code (phone, chat, email, articles, knowledge bases, guides the user manuals, forums, troubleshooting guidelines,...).

    It would have really helped to know the manufacturer, brand or specific model (not only the family of models but the exact model) of the computer that you're talking about (as well as the operating system.  Without that, I can only provide the following search options which are certainly generic but can help or you can modify as appropriate to better target your situation (including the specific computer model or something else):

    http://www.Bing.com/search?q=Wireless+Button+not+Working&QS=n&Form=QBRE&PQ=Wireless+Button+not+Working&SC=5-27&SP=-1&SK=

    http://www.bing.com/search?q=how+to+enable+wireless+button&form=O1FD2

    http://www.Bing.com/search?q=How+to+Bypass+Wireless+Button&QS=n&Form=QBRE&PQ=How+to+Bypass+Wireless+Button&SC=0-29&SP=-1&SK=

    Another option would be to check that the wireless works for other devices (the possibility that the problem is the router rather than on the computer) or with the laptop (so) at a kiosk computer to see if you can connect (which suggests a problem with the router or the configuration of your network as opposed to the computer or the button).

    You can also try to set up a new wireless connection on the computer and see if it works better.

    The out rule, I would update the networking and device manufacturer keyboard drivers to see if that solves the problem (and it may not hurt to get the updates anyway).

    I've never used a computer with a key/button, so I don't know where to look.  Instinctively, I would try to control panel / Device Manager to see if there are any problems detected it (red circles, triangles yellow, white points mark) and see if you can find the associated devices and confirm that they say they work very well without any problem, then check the network configuration and control center for options.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • Notepad opens at random, does not appear in the Vista virus research

    not related to specific programs or mouse they just pop up

    IE / Vista / FujitsuLifebook

    Hi jellybean.

    MSCONFIG will help only if the problem only occurs at startup - not if it occurs randomly during the day (unless a malicious software program is installed in the startup programs, but then it is a malware problem and not really a problem of program).

    It doesn't sound like you are infected, and before you try all of the other fixes, we should exclude.  I guess you have run a full scan with any security software you use and he come clean - but only one program is not enough and the best is to try several and eventually obtain the assistance of an expert or the confirmation (or work around the personal effort and request the assistance of experts from the beginning).  Please proceed as follows:

    First, try the following programs if you do not, because they can help. I recommend you download, install, update and run full scans with Malwarebytes:http://www.malwarebytes.org/ and SuperAntiSpyware:http://superantispyware.com/ and then run a full scan of Microsoft Security:http://www.microsoft.com/security/default.aspx. This may or may not remove the infections, but will probably not correct the damage caused by them. Even if they or your current AV software seem to work or indicate that you are not infected, you should not completely trust in them and must continue with the recommendations that follow (so it's up to you if you want to try them first, or just ignore all this and get help from an expert you really need as described below).

    Correctly and completely remove these infections can be complex and often require manual removal procedures (which may or may not be entirely effective either). Even if they work, I suggest what follows in any case, so that we can start it (you can ignore the methods above if you want it really is the way forward, but it won't hurt to them for trying).

    Please follow these recommendations of JimR1 - MVP compliments:

    You are running Microsoft Security Essentials?

    If Yes: start here - https://support.microsoftsecurityessentials.com/ and select the link that says - I think my computer is infected - and support and select the option for phone, chat or email (options vary depending on the region)

  • Windows - Alt Key focus bug does not have to access the menus.

    Hello-

    I use Alt - Tab to move through my open applications.  After tabbing through open applications using Alt - Tab, and then selecting an application (such as Excel), the Alt key does not work the first time I click on it.

    For example, I Alt - Tab to Excel, Excel Gets the focus, I type Alt - F to access the file menu.  It does not work.  I find myself with the letter 'F' in the currently selected cell.  Inevitably, this screw my spreadsheet and distracted me from my work.  This was never a problem in Windows XP, in Windows 7.  I find that it is occurring with other applications also.

    I have to press the ALT key twice or press ESC and Alt - F.

    Is there any solution for this?  A patch?  A work around?

    Thank you

    I discovered that the source of this problem (for my computer) is that I was using an Aero theme.  When I switched to Windows Classic theme, the problem disappeared.

    Steps to follow:

    (1) right-clight on your desktop.

    (2) select "Customize".

    (3) select "Windows Classic Theme.

    I found that it was the themes Aero that caused the problem.  So now, Windows 7 is really ugly with the "Windows Classic theme" but I'll take functionality without bugs an interface fairly riddled with bugs anywhere, anytime.

    It works for you?
