Problem with keyboard on the Satellite Pro C660

Hi all

I am completely confused because my keyboard has gone haywire and am pretty annoyed, that I can't fix it

Am running windows 7 on toshiba satellite laptop computer pro and I was wondering if this is a software or hardware problem.

Here's what happens:

-Caps lock light stays no more but it flashes when I press it. It always works well
-Left SHIFT key still works, but when I press on it... it is also creates this symbol ~ at the same time within UK keyboard. If I change U.S. keyboard then it enters the vertical BAR.
-The ~ key above the tab key doesn't do what ¬
- And that the key to the pipe that is above the input Tape button this: #7

I updated the BIOS earlier today, but nothing helps...

Does anyone have an idea on how I can fix this as its quite frustrating! Thanks for all the ideas.

see you soon

Keyboard is controlled by a Microsoft driver that is part of the Window System.
So the story is pretty simple either your internal keyboard has failed or the keyboard on the motherboard controller does not work.

How do I know what part is affected?
It is also quite simple, you connect an external USB keyboard.
If you notice the same problems using the external keyboard, the problem is related to the keyboard controller. If you n notice any problems using the USB, the computer keyboard keyboard internal works poorly in this case has to be replaced.

  • Problem with keyboard on the Satellite L50 - has

    Hello

    I have the model L50 - A Satellite and all typing today, whenever I type a letter on the /eyboard (of the previous word it should be easy to understand what letter it is!) it is replaced by / (slash).

    My computer is only a couple of months and is very well cared for (without food or liquids allowed near him!). I've heard many people having a problem with the letters being substituted by numbers, which I think is a num loc / problem. I've tried, even restored computer to factory settings, but still no luc /!

    I hope someone may be able to help out me?
    That / s :)

    > tried, even restored computer to factory settings, but still no luc /!
    I m there is a problem with the hardware of the keyboard, and I guess that everything would work correctly using external USB keyboard. If you do not have to test this in the past, I would advise you do this just to confirm that the use of the external keyboard wouldn t be a problem.

    I guess that there is no other way for you to replace the internal keyboard with a new one.
    I assume that the warranty is still valid, because the L50 - A is new to the market and therefore, you should contact the Toshiba authorized service provider to get it fixed for free.

    To be honest I didn t understand your ad very well, but if you have laptop new and registered with valid warranty do not pay anything if Notepad or any part of the material is defective.

    While the time guarantee everything that needs to be done, I want to tell all the costs will be covered by the warranty.

  • Problem with keyboard on the Satellite L70 - has

    I got my T Sat L70 - A computer for a while with no problems.

    A few days ago my 'BACKSPACE' key start showing as '9' and does not meet the command «return back» How can I fix it?

    You can try to connect external USB keyboard to the laptop to test if this behavior of the keyboard button displays the external keyboard.
    If the USB keyboard works correctly, the problem is definitely caused by malfunction internal keyboard. In this case, you will need to replace the keyboard.

    You are guaranteed valid? In case it is, the replacement can be replaced at no charge.

  • Problem with keyboard on the Satellite C850-F0202.

    Hello

    I need urgent assistance on the keyboard of my C850-F0202.
    Without warning, the keyboard went without object.

    The only bit which seem to be affected are the shortcut keys for brightness(f2-f3), toggle (f12) wireless as well as those of the volume(f9-f10). In addition, the 'NUM LOCK' light during the restart.

    I made several suggestions and recommendations-system restore, uninstall the keyboard driver and reboot system, etc--all without success.
    In one of the occasions where I tried the system restore, I got an error message: critics of the process is dead.
    All attempts to "System Restore" ended without success.

    I am amazed, bar this problem keyboard, everything seems to work very well; start is smooth, no fuss.
    I'm at my wits end, I need more positive assistance.

    Please help, thanks!

    NB: Operating system: windows pro 8.1.

    Hello

    My personal opinion, you should check if this problem could be related to problem internal keyboard or keyboard controller.
    Connect the external USB keyboard and check if it will not work correctly.

    In case the connected USB keyboard will work not correctly, the problem is must be linked to the internal keyboard failure. To solve the problem, you must replace the internal keyboard.

  • "SHIFT" on the Satellite Pro C660 key does not work

    G ' Day,.

    I have a little problem with my laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro C660.
    Unfortunately I had to remove the keyboard and thus dislodged the
    fragile plug to connect to the computer.

    The 'Shift' key refused to work since. All other keys work as usual.
    The only problem is the 'Shift' button does not.
    I tried to gently move the plug but made no difference so now have to
    Use a USB keyboard.

    Can you please help with suggestions for this problem?
    Thank you for your time.

    See you soon,.

    I really put t know what you think when you know that there is no connection for each unique key, but for the entire keyboard.

    To be honest I ve changed keyboard several times but never noticed this problem.

  • Re: No Internet on the Satellite Pro C660

    Someone at - he of the drivers from the internet that can run internet on Toshiba Satellite Pro C660? Laptop is preinstalled with Win7 64 bit.

    I put t know what the card is inside the laptop. He formerly Atheros, but now his Realtek, was great work until Windows don't update now no link it just says: limited access, even if there are 5 full bars showing, there is a yellow question mark on it.

    When I run the troubleshooting it indicates a possible driver problem, but if I check the driver it says working properly. I have been using the system restore and disable windows update, but daily updates are coming back and I have no internet again.

    Now the system restore point that I had created that worked went among the dining choices.
    My head is paralyzed.
    Any help greatly appreciated

    D

    Windows updates are listed as important and optional. Under optional drivers are sometimes written drivers for hardware components such as display or WLAN. Please don t install these updates. Install important updates only, and only use the drivers from Toshiba.

    Please send us the name of the full model (C660-xxx) and we can check what cards are on the inside.
    Try it please check the system again restore and turn on show restore points more. I hope that your restore point will be there. Do it, check the functionality and don t install any driver offered by Microsoft Windows update.

  • Are the keyboards of the Satellite Pro A300 and A300 Satellite the same?

    Hello

    For the moment, I am here in France, and I plan to buy a Satellite Pro A300 with a QWERTY keyboard (which is not exactly a problem for me at the moment). The problem starts when I return to my country where the layout of the keyboard is QWERTY. I intend to sell the laptop when I return (I love not hooked to a laptop computer for a very long time). The thing is that the Satellite A300 is officially sold in my country, but not the Satellite Pro A300. I wonder now if the keyboard for the A300 is compatible with the Pro A300 (looking at the discussions of the forum for older models suggest they are compatible, but I'm not completely sure).

    Can someone provide a definitive answer to this question of compatibility?

    Thank you!

    The button of keyboard layout doesn't depends on Satellite Pro or series of satellites, but of the country where the phone was purchased.

    Different countries need different keyboards button and that's why the buttons are assigned to different positions on the keyboard.

    But the keyboard itself could be used in Sat Pro or Satellite phone too.

    Sometimes during typing on vista, it will stutter and freeze. The time is very short. Is this a problem with vista or the laptop. The T7300 Core 2 Duo 2 ghz processor.

    Hello

    I have a Satellite Pro S200 and the same problem was with my camera. It s is not a hardware problem, it s more a driver related issue No. So, the best thing you can do is update your bios and keep your drivers up-to-date. Just check the download Drivers Toshiba site and make sure you have the latest drivers installed.

    I had resolved my stuttering (core2duo 2.33 Ghz, 2 GB RAM) by updating all drivers...

  • Change Win7 64-bit to 32-bit on the Satellite Pro C660-16N

    Hello.

    >... Satellite Pro C660-16N - Windows 7 64 bit Home Premium pre-installed...

    Nobody knows what the best route is change Win7 64 bit for Win7 32 bit. This model has a 32-bit install on HARD drive recovery option?

    Or he will have to do a clean install of Win7 32 bit DVD.

    Thank you very much.

    I guess that this laptop is available with 64-bit only (specification) and there is only one way to install the version OS 32-bit, you must install it using original Microsoft Win7 32 bit installation disc.
    Please note: for the activation of the operating system, you can use the product key from the sticker. You must purchase a new license for your own installation.

    By the way: also check if this laptop model is supported for 32-bit version. You can do this on Toshiba support and download page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com

    If you have any other questions you are welcome.
