Missing symbols when typing fast on my Satellite L550

Hello

My Satellite L550 laptop has the same problem of keyboard L670 series. More often, some keys don't work, always the same: 1 6 s d g j... When this problem occurs, I can type using a second key like shift or SPACEBAR.

L670 series that has been corrected by new BIOS but on L550 what could I do?

Sometimes it works fine, but I still need to type slowly, but it won't...

Thanks a lot for a solution

Sorry for my bad English

> More often, certain keys do not work, always the same: 1 6 s d g j... When this problem occurs, I can type using a second key like shift or SPACEBAR.

To be honest it s I do not know that the L550 would be affected by the same problem of keyboard as the L670.
Have you tested this behavior of the laptop with an external USB keyboard?
Do this

If the same question is not available using the second external USB keyboard, this means that the BIOS is ok and the internal keyboard is affected.

    Have you installed Windows yourself? Or are you using the factory Windows installation?

    Maybe you are missing some drivers, for example, if you have not installed the correct graphics drivers, Windows will run in Mode VGA (software mode), which is very slow.
    Take a look in the device for driver issues Manager.

    It can also be caused by software installed. Perhaps you have two antivirus installed? Maybe you should try to back up your data and running recovery. Who would determine if it is a hardware or software problem.

  • Double letter when typing fast

    I currently use Alienware M17X R4. Recently, when I type something quick that involve letter 'a', it becomes double as 'aa '. It is the only letter on the keyboard that has this problem. I tried to use an external keyboard, and this question has not arrived.

    This problem often occurs when I type very fast and not always. It is worth noting that my laptop is free of viruses and malware and I also took the key to clean.

    So is this a problem at the level of the material, or is it something else?

    In my case it did turn out to be material.  Dell sent me a new keyboard that I had to install.  This has solved the problem for me...

  • Question of WLAN switch when you run WiFi for Satellite L550

    My Toshiba L550 works well with a line connection cable, but does NOT connect via WiFi (wireless Ethernet)
    The User Guide says that wireless switch must be turned on
    START > all PROGRAMS > Toshiba > utilities > Toshiba HWSetup check wireless put the setting on IT
    I followed these instructions and the message is - the switch settings will be active the next time you turn on.
    Followed this instruction time after time but 'SWITCH' (firmware?) just went off

    What can I do to fix the switch permanently IN?

  • Passport 10.3.0.738 Debug missing symbols

    A new passport for Blackberry happened a few days ago, and we are trying to get a sample application Native kernel running on it.  SDK 1.3.0 has been downloaded apparently very well.

    When you try to run anything it either through Momentics (2.1.1 or 2.1) "Problems to launch" comes with "the debugging symbols are missing."  Clicking on that gives the message "cannot find the corresponding debug symbols.

    Running on an old Blackberry Q10 and Q5 the two 10.2.1.2977 running works well (with the project updated 10.2 SDK of course).

    Looks like someone forgot to put the debugging symbols for this specific 10.3.0 build - in this case, a detail unlocked passport with a sim Rogers 10.3.0.738 - running in the appropriate place on the site of the developers.  Perhaps because the focus is on the next 10.3.1 release?

    We have things to the top and running with good enough command line tools in not loading libraries shared in the debugger, but the graphical interface, such as it is, can be slightly faster to use sometimes.  It doesn't seem to be an (obvious) way to get the GUI Momentics to ignore the debug symbols files do not match and move on to things.  Any thoughts on how to skip this check, or even better get the symbol of the files somewhere online where the tool can be found?

    Thank you.

    The device itself to update to OS Version 10.3.0.1418, and the debugging symbols were found for this version.  It seems that the missing symbols have been for a very short time (a few days)? OS release.

    Once you turn back on your iPhone, all calls that occurred while the iPhone was off should appear in the Missed Call list.

    If they do not:

    • If you are in your area served by your cellular operator, contact your operator.
    • If you are outside this area (roaming), you can not see the calls until the return.  You could ask your cellular operator on this subject.
