• Key 3 C often does not work for several minutes after the start, the other keys work fine.

  I got am HP Pavilion 17-e049wm Notebook PC product #E0J75UAR for about 4 weeks now.  I bought it refurbished.  A week ago I started having this problem.  3, e, d and c keys do not work when I first start the computer all of the other keys work.  Nothing happens when they are pressed.   Sometimes I will restart the computer and they work again, other times they won't, but often will start working if I left the computer set for about five minutes after the start.

  The computer is spotlessly clean.  I've only used a dozen times or more.  Nothing has been spilled on the keyboard.

  Sounds like software for me, but what?

  I am running Windows 8.1 and no programs are running at startup, with the exception of a program start button, but the problem began weeks after installing that.

  Any ideas?

  FWIW, I called hp. They believed excluded material and had me do a full system restore. Problem persists... The things you own end up owning you they say... I guess it's doubly true if you own a hp laptop. Full day turned... One day closer to death. Thanks Obama.

• HP ENVY 15 Notebook PC: HP Envy 15 action keys works do not (F9, F10 and F11)

  My laptop has been working fine since purchase, but last week, I noticed that action F10 F10 & F9 keys (jump, play/pause, skip) did not work for their function. Before last week I could just press the key to activate, I read other posts of this forum and the answers did not work pressing fn + alt + (key action), either by pressing fn + key action. To make this work I need to access the bios screen and change the default values, but it only works when the laptop is on. If I turn the laptop, turn again he resorts right back to does not. Action all other keys work e.g. keyboard backlight, volume, brightness, etc.

  Any solutions would be welcome.

  Thank you.

  Hello @Spudy96,

  Thank you for your quick response!

  You can try to perform a System Restore.  If this does not work, then you could also try to install the previous version of the BIOS of your Support Site.  Let me know how it goes.

  Good luck!

• SanDisk Extreme USB 3.0 unusable as Windows support install all other key 3.0 USB works

  Hello

  I've explained the problem that is described in detail in the following thread, please read full for understand what is the problem.

  http://www.wincert.NET/forum/topic/11021-SanDisk-Extreme-30-32GB-cant-go-on-at-install-destination/

  In short:

  The problem is in the stage of Windows where you select the partition to install it's unpossible click Next:

  An error message appears that says: cannot find any partition or create an install for... but the hard drive is visible and its also possible to create and delete partitions, so the error message is bull * beep *.

  My thougth is that sandisk stick is detected as disk sata hard and is internally by mistake folders as first hard disk, if I get out the stick at the stage where I select the partition, click Refresh, reconnect the key, other refreshment so I can install on the hard disk.

  What is the problem with your extreme poles? Any other key usb 3.0 works well.

  To pull the stick and so on is just a workaround dirty, I bougth the stick because of the speed!

      @x23piracy,
  
      I have searched high and low for more more information ob this odd behavior. But all i can find is either not reliable or solutions such as the one tried. No real reason as to why or what is the problem.
  
      I suspect it has something do to with the way the partition tables are setup on the source media (in this case a san disk usb drive.) I would start there.

      I had the same problem with a 2.0 8 gb drive. I found a fix on the net, Just create about 150 mb or more of unallocated space in the hdd or ssd you are trying to install windows
  
      Resizing a partition would do the trick but do a full back of the drive just in case

      Windows setup will run a refresh on the USB bus at the point that you are having problems with.
  
      One way to get around it, is to pull the USB disk out, then put it back in, and go back one step of Windows setup, and try again.  This works in most cases with this error.
  
      bphlpt, on 01 Mar 2013 - 17:15, said:
  
      The questions remains.  Why is this happening with this particular brand/size of USB stick while it is not happening with others, and how to prevent this behavior?
  
      Cheers and Regards

      It's a good question.  I also own the same drive, and have the same issue with it.
  
      I have a feeling that the controller in the stick is slow at initializing, and is simply not fast enough for Windows Setup.  If you watch the USB stick when Windows is setting up, you can see that it's being initialized, (just before setup asks what drive you want to install Windows on) as my mouse and keyboard also disconnect and reconnect at the same time.
  
      amaltom61, on 02 Mar 2013 - 13:05, said:
  
      Stimpy can be correct. One way i found to solve this problem is to create some unallocated space in the drive(150 mb or more). 
  
       bphlpt, on 04 Mar 2013 - 08:00, said:
  
      Even though you weren't talking about that, I don't know why it wouldn't work.  I've reformatted them before, Fat32 and NTFS.
  
      OK, I went looking for references.  Yes you can do it, but it seems it is not as easy to do as I thought, at least for everyone.  Some folks say the standard built-in Windows 7 tools do it automatically, some say they don't.  I still haven't tried it, since I don't have a USB stick available to partition at the moment.  Some references say that that you need to flip the USB removable bit so that Windows will see the stick as a fixed drive before you can partition it.  I also found  two different tutorials or how to partition a USB stick here and here.  So, yes, one way or another it can be done.
  
      Cheers and Regards
  
      Stimpy, on 04 Mar 2013 - 16:59, said:
  
      Yeah, I have looked in to this a while ago. And found that you cannot partition this USB stick. It needs to be seen by the system as a fixed drive, but for whatever reason, Sandisk are not interested in helping their customers out with this, as it is a simple change to the drives firmware, like you described. There is a rumour going round that Sandisk are going to realease an updated firmware that will make this drive compatible with Windows To Go, and turn it into a fixed disk. I think that's unlikely, but you never know!
  
      Have a look here, it seems Sandisk support simply does not care.

• Brightness and a few other keys not working is not in Sony sve15118fn

  I upgraded to windows 8 pro via the offer of upgrade of windows and installed all the required software patches / drivers provided by sony and discovered that my brightness control hotkey (Fn + F5 and Fn + F6) does it work as well as a few other keys function for zoom(i/o), sleep, touchpad (enabled/disabled). Only volume control works (Fn + F1 - mute, Fn + F2 and Fn + F3) work which excludes the possibility that the fn key could not be recognized. So, how can I activate it.

• Firefox displays my website poorly; other browsers work fine.

  I recently bought a new computer, and now my website (www.tree.org) shows italic! It is probably not the fault of the computer (ASUS 1215 B), because the problem appears only on Firefox. I've upgraded to the latest version (6.0), and it shows always in italics. In Google Chrome pages display correctly. However, my desktop computer, the same versions of Firefox, running is displayed correctly. I think my font file might be corrupted (Goudy Old Style), so I have not copied a known source of good font (from my other computer that is displayed properly) - no change. I tried to empty cache.

    All I can figure out is that there is something between the ASUS processing and Firefox that is causing this.  I have written also to ASUS, but this problem baffles me.  Any ideas?

  Hello

  Have you tried an external monitor on the laptop?
  If the external monitor works fine, it seems to be a problem of internal display and must be replaced.

  You use the factory settings on your laptop computer or you have installed your own version of Windows? Before turning to an authorized service provider, you need to restore factory settings to determine if it s a hardware or software problem. With the factory settings, everything should work fine and if not, I think it s a hardware problem.

• Help: Fuze distorts the sound when the display turns off

  Hello

  Since a few days, I own my rocket. Today, I recognized the following problem:

  When the display turns off the "rocket" distorts the song. It's a bit like stuttering, it's his bad.

  When I keep the screen turned on (by clicking on the boxes or more) he playes the song of good quality.

  The EQ is set to standard.

  Has anyone experienced the same problem?

  I don't know what to do, what an individual problem of my camera (default?) or maybe a general problem? I would stay there or should I change it?

  Thanks in advance,

  Stefan

  This problem is fixed in the next firmware should be out in the next few days.

  TO work around it, just put the equalizer settings on the equalizer custom for anything other than 0,0,0,0,0

  Hi, while writing an email online using Firefox 3.6.3, I was using one of the "CTRL + left arrow or right" to move the cursor on the text. I must have pressed some other key because the screen has become huge - and I can't scroll vertically or horizontally, which makes the pages of Mail of Hotmail impossible. I have connected since using the Explorer MSFT and it works very well. This problem occurs only on the page of Mail of Hotmail Live not on the home page or other.
  Could you please let me know if there is a problem with Firefox, or if you have any advice on how to restore the appearance of Hotmail in Firefox?

  This has happened

  Just once or twice

• Satellite A350-20s - cannot get FN keys work

  Hello

  Recently, I formatted the hard drive and installed Vista Home premium new because it was slow. Before formatting, I had turned off the touchpad to use because I found it very uncomfortable to use. So, instead, I used an optical mouse. Once I installed Vista the touchpad did not work and the fn did not meet the F1, F2 - F9... The strange thing is when I press the Fn key, the light comes on and shows his work and when I press Fn + F10, the NumLock Gets and when I press Fn + F11 it goes to normal qwerty keyboard.

  I have downloaded all the drivers for the laptop, including the official Web page of TOSHIBA touchpad driver and tried all the tricks known in the book, but always truggling to get this function of the keyboard work? Your help is very appreciated.

  My laptop is still under warranty, but I'm afraid to send it because they would go like you hav formatted the hard disk drive even I hav installed on the same OS that I already had.

  This is the main reason for this post. Listen to me please

  Hey Buddy,

  I doubt that you have downloaded from the Toshiba site, otherwise your FN keys work correctly! ;)

  In any case, for the FN keys, you need to install Toshiba Value added Package. With this package it is also possible to enable/disable the touchpad. It brings all the FN keys to work.

• Portege R500 shortcut keys work not

  Quick access keys (or function keys) no longer work on my Portege R500 even if the F10 and F11 keys work. I don't know exactly when they stopped working, or if it's related to a particular event.

  I use Windows XP. SP 3

  I tried to downlowd various updates of drivers from this site, but without success.

  I downloaded the latest driver for hotkeys however, after having extracted the files, when I select tfnf5.exe and try to run it, nothing happens. I am unable to delete the file, because it tells me that it is in use.

  When I try to start Toshiba Accessibility, I get a message "the system cannot use Toshiba Accessibililty". (I don't know why there is a comma after the system).

  Any ideas please?

  Thank you very much

  Hello

  In order to get the FN keys to work, you must first install the common Module!
  Then follow with Hotkey utilities for display devices, hotkey utilities and wireless

  This should help you get the buttons working again!

• Then the display turns off I can't get it back without force restart

  When the display switches off the power due to the low battery power & I can't get this back even when I plug it into the sector and having to force the computer to restart.
  Is there a pref somewhere to turn it off?

  Hello

  When the screen turns off, exactly? How much capacity has battery at the moment? 5 % ? More?
  Try to higher level.
  When you work with your laptop and the battery level is low battery and the alarm alert will appear in the taskbar, but you will be able to continue your work several minutes or connect the power running.

  I'm afraid that your laptop reaches the critical battery level and then maybe is too late for any action.
  Set the low battery level to 10% and when the notification is shown connect power adapter immediately.
  I imagine that the screen doesn't have to be out of all.
