On Satellite Pro L870-173 keyboard problem

Hi, I am the owner of a laptop from the Satellite Pro L870-173.
By writing an e-mail the keyboard functions has changed.
Some keys have a different meaning, examples

Space lab = o
4 = o v4v4
c = the optioo for a secodon display

What can I do?
Is originally a default keyboard?
Do anyone have an idea?

The system is a 6v4 - bit win8o
The keyboard settings is always the same: German language

Thank you very much!

> Do someone has an idea?
Yes, I have an idea.

> Is originally a default keyboard?
I m afraid, Yes.

You can confirm my idea connection external USB keyboard to the laptop.
In case your external keyboard would work correctly, the problem is definitely related to the internal keyboard.

  • Re: Satellite Pro L870-172 keyboard Intermittent behavior

    I experience strange behavior with my keyboard mainly intermittent when using excel spreadheets where the screen zoom in and out, several cells are highlighted by trying to enter data, the data is copied to separate sheets & different characters are entered in the key.
    The zoom in and out of the question also occurs when you use internet explore.

    Any help appreciated.

    As far as I know this s laptop touchpad supports some additional features like the TOUCHPAD with GESTURE. If possibly you have used a zoom feature s touchpad without knowing who

  • Satellite Pro L870-18R - no boot after upgrade CPU

    Hello

    Bought the "SATELLITE PRO L870-18R" alongside a "Intel Core i7-3740QM 2.70 GHz FCPGA988 L3 6 MB 4 Cores CPU 2.70 GHz" to upgrade the processor and get a beautiful machine.

    Boots of machine as expected with its stock i3, but white LED will blink once and no post when upgrading the processor is applied.
    Is their a bios that will support this CPU, otherwise what is the max processor that toshiba will move to. Little bit discouraged, I can't upgrade.

    Is their a bios that will support this CPU

    BIOS updates are not released to allow new media of CPU, but the BIOS updates are released to fix possible problems for laptop...

    If this is not the case, what is the max processor that toshiba will move to. Little bit discouraged, I can't upgrade.

    Still is it that manufacturers of mobile phones do not support updates on own laptops... This means that there is no further information on the possible processors and supported.

    However, a new processor usually requires a BIOS and chipsets support... so in case you want to make these updates (of course only at your own risk) then you will need to use a CPU that is supported by the Intel Chipset. But there is no guarantee that this notebook would functions even if you use a processor that would be supported by the chipset...

  • Satellite Pro L870 don't stay on the Toshiba logo forever - no start

    Hi all

    Does anyone know of a problem that could cause a no boot (a few stays on Toshiba logo forever) followed by starting on the second try almost every time on a Toshiba Satellite Pro L870 (Windows 8)?

    Thanks in advance

    The laptop usually performs the POST (power on self-test) while the Toshiba splash screen is visible.
    In power in the self-test, the essential components card mother (i.e. RAM) is enabled.

    I think the POST should not be spent properly and so the laptop hangs at the Toshiba logo screen.

    But unfortunately, I can't say with certainty what part could be affected it could be a RAM problem or a motherboard problem.

  • Satellite Pro L870-172 error 003 when retrieving the recovery DVDs

    Hi all

    Having a devil of a time with this portable darn. So I bought the recovery dvd. tried to boot from the disk and comes with no OS bootable. Thinking it could be a problem with the optical drive, I created a bootable usb key.

    Received the usb key to start

    So I goto Toshiba Recovery Wizard
    Press Yes to say it will wipe the drive.
    Retrieves the software factory default
    In the end, I get an error message

    Error: 003
    Recovery error

    Press ok to start the computer

    You can see the final screen here.
    https://DL.dropboxusercontent.com/s/1fq5yk4t9hjhmk9/2014-09-05%20at%2012.38.PNG?DL=0

    Can anyone help plleeaaaseeee.

    The only thing I can think is that maybe when I created the USB startup key should I copy then disk2 on the stick as well using xcopy.

    I think there are several reasons for the error.
    The recovery media or the hard drive is may be defective. Wrong settings of the BIOS, etc...

    I recommend you to check once more the Toshiba Recovery bootable disc.
    I don t think that there might be a problem with the optical disc drive.
    From my point of view, it could be a bad BIOS setting.

    The Satellite Pro L870-172 has been pre-installed with the system Win 8.
    Please check start secure as well as the UEFI boot mode option in the BIOS.

    Generally, in order to be able to boot from different devices to boot, secure boot must be disabled.

  • Satellite Pro L870 - Touch-pad suddenly stopped working

    Hi - the touchpad on my Satellite Pro L870 - 18G (Windows 8) has suddenly stopped working (after less than 2 months use of)-which makes the phone rather difficult to use. There is nothing wrong with the driver - according to the Device Manager, but I tried to reinstall when even (did not help).
    These things are not normally suddenly?

    Why device manager says that there is no problem when there is a very clear?

    Maybe the touchpad is disabled. Is there a any reaction when you use the FN + F5 key combination?

    Concerning
    ARI

    How is it that a laptop that isn't so old or so cheap does not have to be compatible with Windows 10?

    I guess that in this forum from a user to anyone will be able to answer this question, but from my point of view of a few each notebook / computer manufacturer must decide which models would get additional software support...
    Toshiba released still many laptop models in a short period of time, and in my opinion that it is not easy to provide support for all series laptop... so somewhere it is necessary to make a clear cut...

    But you can still install Windows 10 laptop and I am sure that the system will work perfectly, but probably some portable devices is not available due to lack of software...

  • HyperMemory on Satellite Pro L870 - 18G

    Hey, I have a Satellite Pro L870 - 18G with equipped with an AMD Radeon HD card 7670 M. I read up on the specs and see that this specific map using HyperMemory who works with the RAM installed on the laptop. I want to install 16 GB of RAM instead of the standard 4 GB installed and so I'm interested how this will affect my graphics.

    According to Toshiba´s description clean it will work this way:
    + 2,048 MB dedicated VRAM. Available graphics memory can be extended with the system memory, with HyperMemory technology: up to 3 823 MB with 4 GB of installed system memory and up to 8 GB of installed system memory 5 871 MB +.

    Where can I see if HyperMemory is enabled and I see the amount of memory the graphics card is currently 'give '?

    null

    Hello

    If you expand the RAM to 16 GB of RAM, the majority could be shared with the graphics card.
    The graphics card driver affects the part of the RAM memory graph automatically, which means that its impossible to change this value manually.

    In case more graphics memory is required, the pilot would share this part automatically.

  • Satellite Pro U300 Expansion Chassis problem

    Hello fellow users.

    I am trying to use an expresscard with my satellite pro expansion chassis. Problem is that in Device Manager, I am getting error code 12 for PCI bridges in the chassis and the error code 31 for the PCI bridge on the card I want to use in the expansion chassis.

    I installed latest version of the BIOS but cannot solve the problem.

    Slot for Express card in my computer is fine because I use an Ethernet Express of 1 card G without problem.

    Hunting on the web, it seems that the problem is related to the BIOS being unable to handle the number of PCI bus in the system, refer to the knowledge base article 942959 Microsoft. This article explains the problem and how to Vista and W2008 reslove.

    I am running XP and work around, that they said, does not work. Upgrading to Vista is not really an option as software I want to use is not yet the version for Vista.

    My only options left at this stage are fresh install XP to see if it corrects the problem, or vista fresh install and hope I want to use drivers/software works under Vista.

    Has anyone else seen this problem, got any other suggestions.

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    your problem is unusual, but what I want to know is: which model / manufacturer, what is this expansion chassis?
    It would be interesting since without knowing what we´re talking expansion chassis, it would be difficult to know where exactly the problem could be...

  • 'Lost' on Satellite Pro L870 webcam

    I bought a SatellitePro L870-171, with factory pre-installed Win 8 64 bit laptop for Christmas gift from my wife.

    Taking advantage of the opportunity to get familiar with the functions and utilities, I found the web camera integrated a few days ago, which produced a self-portrait on the screen! More recently, I tried to find the way to access the camera again as my wife will want to try "Skype".

    I can't locate or obtain a new screen image - no doubt I have pressed the wrong button screen at any given time have disconnected?

    The camera is a USB device. I checked with + Control Panel/Device Manager/imaging devices + and the camera is shown as working properly with his driver as "TOSHIBA Web Camera - HD" - there is no yellow exclamation of warning icon. By clicking on the device and selecting Properties tab indicates the device is working properly. looking at + system devices in Control Panel under USB Controller all seem OK. Looking at + Panel configuration/devices & Printers + does not show a camers. (For some reason, this laptop doesn't have an applciation of camera like on the Win 7 version (don't know why?) when the Toshiba web site is checked.)

    I was looking for Panel start with "camera" and all I get is a list of menu small
    -CameraSettingsUIHost.exe
    -ViewScanners & cameras

    By clicking on the file EXE does nothing.
    It is located in four files when you perform a search in windows for this.
    By clicking on "ViewScanners"... "a dialogue window which should display the devices listed, connected and turned on. -There is nothing showing?

    Click the Add button and crossed in the following windows, but only four manufacturers of cameras in the list, Dell, Kyocera, Lexmark, Xerox - neither of which is Toshiba.

    Can anyone suggest what steps are needed to 'find' the camera again?

    I found on

    a file from Toshiba Web Camera Application < tc30463200a.exe=""> , size 86 MB, for Win 7 32 bit to Win 8 64 bit.

    There are hundreds of laptops listed, but not my specific - the only L870 are «...» L870-ST2N01, L870D-BT2N22, L870-ST2NX1, L870-ST2N02, L870-BT2N22, L870D-ST2NX1... »

    Should I install this application, although there is was that nothing installed initially?

    Thank you in anticipation of the answers.

    Hello

    First of all, you said you have a Satellite Pro L870-171 the link you posted above leads to the Toshiba driver page we your laptop is a European series, so you must use the drivers supplied by Toshiba UE driver page.

    Your L870 Pro Satellite belongs to the PSKFPE series and the drivers can be found here:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    However, I think that the webcam software is already preinstalled on your laptop, but you have looked in no position to webcam that you should not look in Control Panel, or in the Device Manager in you want to start the webcam program.
    You must start windows explore and go to all programs-> Toshiba
    There you should find the webcam utility.
