Portege M300 Fn + F5 key does not

Hello

I'm running a M300 on Advanced Port Replicator II. Recently, the Fn F5 (laptop, keyboard) and assigned right Ctrl/Alt/F5 key combos have ceased to display the selection sequence of the computer/laptop screen laptop + external/External. All that happens when I press thise is the display switches between the laptop and the laptop computer and external screem, but basically the screen of the laptop stays on while the laptop gets very hot.

Two other keys are also not stand-by - presentation and Toshiba Assist button button - could it be connected somehow?

Operating system is Windows XP Pro SP2 updated.

Can someone advise me?

Richard

Hello

Check these tools:
Utility to modify the device, call display for external monitor, Hotkey utilities for display devices.

As far as I know all the tools theses are responsible to properly display the switching device.
Try reinstalling these tools.

Have you also used the recovery CD?

    Please help, if anyone knows how to fix the problem.

    I formatted the original installed OS and newly, MS XP sp2.

    It sounds everything works correctly on your laptop computer and the operating system recognizes the drive correctly. But only the Nero application makes some problems.
    Well, it's not easy to say why Nero does not recognize the drive.
    I recommend you to check the Nero Web site.
    You will find many info and tools for additional help.
    For example the infoTool can locate the fault.
    You can also try to use the Nero driver - CleanTool.exe and RegistryChecker.exe

    However, it is a 3rd party apps and I think you should ask for help using Nero.

  • Portege R700 - Touch Pad, ecoUtility and presentation of the key does not

    Hello

    I got a Portege R700 with Windows 7 64 bit.
    This machine starts very slowly after the log in user mode only.
    The system is waiting for 1 to 2 Minutes before you can work. In administrator mode erverything is fine and fast.

    Thus our directors thought it might be the Toshiba Software and a lot has been disabled or uninstalled.
    Because this did not help and because I thought that it migt be cause of Kaspersky, I started to reinstalled and update the software from Toshiba. Most of it works now. Shortcut keys does not work, then I start TfcRst.exe via autostart now, even he would somehow it would be better in 'systemecommencent '.

    But still some keys do not work. The Tablet touch power switch, just above the touch pad does not work.
    The Fn F9 works. And the two keys to the right upper corner (ecoUtility/off button and the presentation-Key) do not work. In all three major, I get a pop up saying "this function not taken in charge.

    Anyone has any idea of this?

    Thank you

    Hello

    Why you n t try to restore the operating system back to the same state until the administrator has removed or uninstalled the Toshiba Software?

    Generally speaking the VAP (value added package) controls the multimedia keys.
    Also the FN keys require the VAP and Flash memory card Support utility.

  • Portege 3500: FN key does not work

    the FN key is not working and when you start get the recovery of the thotkey failed

    What function of the FN key doesn't work?
    If the switch show FN + F5 n t work buttons you need to install utility for display devices access keys. If the wireless shortcut key does not work, you need to install Wireless hotkey.
    As you can see, different applications and drivers are required to use different Fn keys.

    But common modules must be installed always, because this driver is important for every application from Toshiba. Also, be sure to reinstall the utilities.
    Visit the Toshiba for the necessary drivers.

    As far as I know, FN + F10 or FN + F11 active integrated keyboard and cursor control keys.

    Satellite M70 is a fairly old machine and I do not remember which driver may be responsible for this control. Try to reinstall the Toshiba Accessibility or FN-esse utility. Maybe this will help.

    I had M70 long ago, but I've never used this option.

    Hello

    Install the VAP (value added package) and reboot the laptop.

    Then install the Support Flash Card utility and reboot once more.
    Then test the Fn keys.

    The buttons are controlled by Flash cards, so you should be able to use the buttons after a new installation of this app.

  • The internal keyboard BACKSPACE key does not work

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite and the BACKSPACE key does not work.

    He will start work the rare opportunity, but then it just stops working again.
    This happens on everything, including word and internet ect.

    It has been like that for a few weeks now and I turned the laptop and turn off many times.
    Is there a way to fix it myself or I send for repair?

    Please, * don't * tell me:
    Get an external keyboard
    Try it turn on and off
    Just highlight the words and use the delete key - it's annoying to have to do this all the time
    Type carefully and do not make so many mistakes

    Thank you!

    > Please, don't tell me not to:
    > Get an external keyboard

    And why shouldn't t someone recommends you to check the functionality using the external keyboard?

    It s recommended to connect an external keyboard to verify how the BACKSPACE key would work using 2nd external keyboard. In case the back might work properly using USB keyboard, the question is very clear; in such cases its main shortcomings. The key cannot be replaced or changed or fixed. In this case, need to replace the entire keyboard!

    In case the BACKSPACE key does not even using the external keyboard, then this would mean that the internal keyboard controller is faulty and in this case only the replacement motherboard would be useful.

    But to be honest, I think that its simple keyboard failure and a replacement would solve this.

  • J K L; And enter the key does not

    I have a Pavilion dv7-6b32us laptop.  Intel CORE i7.  Windows 7.  Nothing added, but the printer drivers and nothing lately.  Yesterday morning keyboard worked fine.  Last night the J K L; were not working.  Clean under the keys.  Then enter key does not.  Have reloaded drivers.  The Enter key on the numeric keypad works ok.  I plugged in a USB keyboard and everything works normally with him.  Any ideas?

    Hey ModernMode,

    That's the spirit! Silver linings FTW!

    You are right. You can replace the keyboard following the same guide who will also give you the part number because they keyboard so you can order it online.

    Alternatively, you can contact HP telephone Support to control the keyboard, or set up the service for them to fix it for you. You can contact HP Technical Support at 1-800-474-6836 in North America. For all other regions click here.
