Portege Z - FN key does not

Hello.
I'm new to this forum, so I hope I tried before posting here.
I have a problem with the FN key. It no longer works. The flash card is enabled, does not alter, but the taskbar on top with all the function keys do not seem more when I press the FN. However some functions still work, like FN + F1 (to lock the pc) or FN + ESC (to toggle the volume). Other combinations don't work, especially that more important to me FN + F8 (toggle wifi...).
I looked for a solution on the web, apparently it's a well known problem in many computers, but I can't find a solution for Toshiba.
Any suggestion please?
Thank you!

Try a system reset. Turn off the computer. Remove all attachments and battery. Press and hold the power for 15 seconds. Attach the power and insert the battery and restart the computer. Press the F2 key when you see the Toshiba splash screen to enter Setup. Press F9 to reset the default values. Press F10 to save the changes and exit. Answer Yes to a full reset. Computer will restart. It worked for me.

  • Portege Z930 - function key does not

    Hi, new to this forum. I have a laptop of z930 - 14 d Portege with 64 bit system with Intel Core i5-3437U processor and Windows 7 Professional. I used an external display until recently. When I stopped using it, I noticed that the function of the display brightness key did not work. When I pressed fn and f6 or f7 key, brightness adjustment has come, but I change the brightness. All the other key fn associated operations were very good. I have seen some forums online for this problem and followed their recommendation around the diplay driver upgrade and added value pack from the United Kingdom takes care of Toshiba Web site. Also click on restart flash cards. Nothing seems to have worked and now the fn itself stopped working for example, nothing happens when I press the fn key and I can't perform any operation using the fn key. Please suggest what could be a solution to this problem. Thank you.

    Uninstalled then reinstalled display driver and added value pack and the fn key is back but still can not change the brightness. Please notify.

  • Portege R500 - Ctrl Key does not

    Hi guys

    I have two toshiba portege r500, who never really be used since buying about 2 years ago.

    Today I don't have one to begin to use it and find that the CTRL key is not working that I thought it was strange.
    After browsing a bit I couldn't find a solution then I'm just another identical laptop on and from using them to find exactly a problem only.

    Laptops are both under XP.
    I reformatted and uninstalled the keyboard driver to see if that would solve the problem but it did not.

    All others. Many have suggested that this may be due to a damaged cable keyboard but I think that it would be very likely that they would both violate the same way.

    Thanks in advance

    Connect an external USB keyboard and check if the button would work.
    If the button can be used with the external keyboard, then the internal keyboard is faulty and must be replaced.

  • 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.

    Joe

    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.

    So uninstall old utility Support Flash Cards and then install the latest version of it.

    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.
