My Satellite M30 304 and these buttons that never work!

Hey, I can't get my multimedia buttons on the front of my laptop to work.
As far as I know, everything is up-to-date with Windows XP Home Edition, and I downloaded the driver from the Web site and tried again and again.

Any ideas?

Hello

You reinstall the OS using the recovery CD? If the OS is installed from the recovery CD all tools & utilities will be installed properly and you can use all of the buttons. Also, try to reinstall TOSHIBA controls V3.01.0400. You can find it on the CD tools & utilities.

    I am sorry to say that it resembles a discarded HARD drive.

    You can boot from a floppy drive and see the HARD drive at all. If you can, then I suggest trying to format the drive in this way and then tries again.

    If this isn't the case, then you should get a new drive.

  • HDD upgrade for Satellite M30 304

    Hello

    I have a Satellite M30-304. It has a 40 GB hard drive and I would like to upgrade to 120 or 160 GB.

    Could if it you please let me know the specification of compatible drive for M30 - 304?
    Can what max HDD M30-304 capacity have? Detailed specifications would be useful.

    Thank you.

    I doubt you could use a 160 GB HARD drive.
    I recommend you to check a 120 GB IDE 2.5 "HDD.

    The point is that the HARD disk controller supports the 28-bit LBA and bigger hard drives as 120 GB will not be recognized by the BIOS.

    So in my opinion the 120 GB is the largest HARD drive that can be used.

    Hello

    I have small problem, ehm two problems, but may be small for you :)

    Last week, I install Vista ultimate WITHOUT RECOVERY CD...
    It's OK, but I close the cover of the book and instantly open, monitor become black and I can't do anything without restarting.
    In the Panel in feeding opportunities, bookmark 'options to close the cushion' does not work.

    Maybe it's by, because I'm not driver if exists

    And second problem may be linked with the first, but it is a mistake, because I was not discover drivers because I haven't hidden toolbar on the back Windows, where standartly is on-site.

    I don't work much hidden functions under the FN key (I think that FN + F2, F3...) F12) most keys be the side POWER without multimedia keys on the music...

    Hi Martin

    First of all it s interesting if you have downloaded and installed all the Toshiba Vista drivers that are published on the European driver Toshiba page?
    All drivers must be installed in the correct order!

    If I'm not mistaken the Qosmio G30 - 126 belongs to the series of PQG32E. It was delivered with HD DVD player, and therefore, you should choose the drivers for the Qosmio G30 HD DVD (PQG32E)!

    Please first check the file txt Instructions of Installation, and then install all the drivers as mentioned in this document.

    With regard to the issue of the display;
    You need to install the correct driver NVIDIA of the Toshiba page!

    The keys FN and control buttons don t work because the Vista Toshiba value added Package has not been installed. This package contains applications that are needed to get all the features of Toshiba running!

    Good luck

  • Satellite A660 - touch pad / stop and other buttons do not work

    Dear people on this forum,

    Recently, about 3 weeks ago, I turned on my computer and I cleaned out the dust because it was overheating.

    about 2 weeks before, I noticed that my touchpad is not working and the buttons at the top of the page do not work, there is no light (multimedia audio buttons wireless) I can't activate/deactivate or either, I don't know how. I don't know if the problem because I cleaned my laptop and has not logged a few threads back but I included this detail because I do not use these buttons if I haven't noticed if they were on. but he said: 2 days ago, I don't know how my wireless exploded Ant when I press fn + f8 (wireless) wireless communication switch is turned off, which is one of the buttons is not working (upstairs next to / switch even with my touch pad)

    I tried the following:

    Windows Update
    turn off the computer, remove all cables and battery and wait for about 30 minutes. Then then hold down the button for 30 seconds
    Reinstall the support flash cards, hw Setup utility / value pack
    and finally a Toshiba out of the recovery of the box using the recovery of 2 cd product

    I don't know what to do next. It's either:

    try something else
    or is there a wire is connected both touchpad and the buttons at the top and I have to open my laptop and connect them.

    Please answer as to my next step to get my wireless.

    Please don t get me wrong, but I don t know how to help you now. Disassembly of the laptop is to only authorized persons and if you do it on your own there is always a risk that something may be hurt or may be damaged.

    OK, I must also say that I also removed my machine too but I got lucky and everything is OK as before.
    I put t know how A660 looks inside, but the principle is still the same and I can't imagine you have whatever it is damaged.
    You know very well that we cannot say much about your problem. What you need to do now is the final test of functionality and install original recovery image that you got with your laptop. Test the functionality with the factory settings. If the problem is still there, I m afraid you must open for new laptop and check if everything is connected correctly.

    Last option is to contact the service and ask for help.

  • Sporadic satellite M30-304 USB failure mouse

    Have the laptop above under XP. After that 2 years running a mouse USB laser without probs, suddenly the pointer stops for a few seconds, then takes over again, stops, starts etc. Very maddening. There is an error message saying every so often the device connected to the USB port is not installed correctly.

    I uninstall the software for the mouse and the re - install, run all my anti-virus software and Tracker, still the same problem. the trackpad still works fine, so I decide it takes the mouse and buy a new one and install it. It worked fine for a few weeks now, so today the same problem!

    Did he have the same problem or know a solution?

    Hello

    I don't use a Satellite M30 but a Satellite M40.
    I use it for a year and I have no problem with my mouse.
    I can't believe that the laptop has a malfunction, because as you say in your announcement of new mouse worked initially.
    I have no idea why your mouse pointer stops. Maybe the mouse driver causes a strange failure.
    You can also try to remove the shape of USB ports, Device Manager.
    After restarting again the operating system should recognize the USB ports again with a standard configuration.
    Then, you can try to reconnect the mouse.

    You can also try to use the mouse without having to install the drivers for mouse manufacturing delivered. Check it out

  • Satellite M30-304 - strange questions after BIOS update

    Hi all

    I updated my BIOS according to the good driver for Satellite M30. However, since this operation took the endless problems with screen and wireless card. Also the screen used to display flash BIOS only now them a Centrino, Centrino logo sometimes sometimes Mr. Pentium, I don't know that the version of BIOS is incorrect for my laptop. If I try to re - install the upgrade, it is said version already installed 1.7, so will not continue.

    1. is there a way to force the re - install the same version?
    2. someone can the upgrade me of the correct BIOS Setup for the model n ° PSM30E-0QKJ1-5U, I installed the version was 20070807154017

    The history is quite interesting. AFAIK Centrino logo is there if the Centrino platform is in use.

    The Centrino platform consists of:
    an Intel Pentium M processor
    a chipset Intel 855 of the series
    an Intel PRO/Wireless 2100 or later 2200 (IEEE 802 11 b) mini-PCI wireless adapter

    If a component is removed (Intel PRO/Wireless mini-PCI wireless adapter) the Centrino logo will disappear. I don't really know why logo is from time to time, but you did the right BIOS update. There is no other for your laptop model.

    Can you please tell me what is the problem with your wireless network adapter? You can use just sporadically or what?

  • Satellite U500-1F5: eco and FN buttons do not work after BIOS update

    I hope I can find a solution for my problems here.

    I bought a new Toshiba Satellite U500 (PSU9ME),
    I'm updating my laptop regularly whenever I get alert through TEMPRO or Toshiba service center.

    Last week I received an alert to updat the BIOS and I did. Since then, I've noticed the following problems:

    1 eco utility does not work, and when I tried to uninstall, it says (not supported BIOS)
    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

    I hope you can give me an answer about my problems,
    I already downloaded the latest updates for the eco and value-added packege of the toshiba site and install,

    BUT

    does not my prob

    still eco utility does not work. The msg (not supported BIOS), appear when I run the update.

    The bar of buttons on the top of the screen does not (even after I uninstall the package of value of toshiba and re - install the last being) and the locking/unlocking back touch button does not work.

    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.

    Hello

    The installations instructions document is not available at this time. You can check the order of facilities for another model of laptop preinstalled Vista. It should be similar on all laptops preinstalled Vista.

    Value added contains several tools and I think is the tool you need for media buttons. Just install VAP and I hope it works.

  • Satellite P300-156 - and the button Return give the same values

    Hello

    I have a satellite P300-156, and it has a numeric keypad.
    I have problems because the Enter key and the Return key give the same values. I believe that it is incorrect.
    Can anyone help.

    Key on the numeric keypad should give an input it does.
    the Enter key on the main keyboard should give a carriage return value, but it gives an input value.

    Usually this does not cause a problem, but with software like photo shop that makes the distinction between a carriage return and a hard fall it does not work.

    Can someone help me please

    Thank you

    Hello

    To my eyes the entry and return keys are the same keys that provides the same functionality.
    I really put t know why you believe that there is something not right

    By the way; Check if you are using the latest version of the BIOS!

    USB mouse works. Pointing device-enable (bios).

    I decided to reinstall Win7, in a time of installation the sensor does not work!
    Disassembled the laptop, I found nothing.

    Help!

    Have you installed the touchpad driver after the installation of Win 7?

    If so, you should also check if the touchpad has not been disabled using FN + F9 keys
    Also recommend that you check the setting in Control Panel-> mouse-> Advanced tab
    Here, you have to go into the advanced settings.
    For all I know, you could turn on and off several options of touchpad and touchpad functionality.
