Qosmio G40 - how to reconfigure the keys above the keyboard?

Since the upgrade to Windows7, the buttons on the top of my G40 (TV, multimedia, Rec, Dolby, etc) don't work anymore. When I click on one, a pop-up window appears asking me to set up the button.

Now, I've changed a single button to task wrong.

(1) how can I change this back?
(2) how can I get functions return when moving the cursor to the top of the screen (does not work either)

Hello

I think that you don t have to reconfigure the keys, you just need new version of Toshiba Value added Package which controls the multimedia keys.

I checked the website of Toshiba Qosmio G40 and Windows 7 and there is a newer version that is compatible with Windows 7:

It seems the newer version 1.2.40

  • Qosmio G40: How to get the sound on 4 speakers rear

    Here's the thing, 3 days ago, I bought the G40 model. I needed a laptop on which I can work with Photoshop, Illustrator and Corel Draw.

    When I bought it, I went on site update from toshiba to see what is new and what I need to be updated. Afterwards, I checked on a few other sites of manufacturers (realtek, nVidia, etc.) which is new, because they get the first pilots.

    I noticed that there is a new driver for sound card for this computer so I decided to donwnload it and run the drivers. Everything went well, but after installation I lost the option DolbySurround and instead of all 4 bass speakers, only 2 speakers worked so I decided its better to revisit the original Toshiba drivers.

    After that I downloaded the drivers from the Toshiba site, installed and put to day all, I noticed that the software for audio, downloaded from Toshiba site has no dolbysurround option. Help, please!

    Secondly, I also removed the TOSHIBA accessibility option, which is to control the 'F' keys After that, I can't turn the Touchpad mouse. Help, please? Ideas, suggestions?

    What to say dude. Seems to be something wrong with any system files or registry entries
    Why change something if you have no problems?

    Take my advice and never change a running system ;)

    So now your problem and some advice how to solve this stupid question!

    I would recommend to restore the operating system to the point of time at the beginning. Use the tool from Microsoft called system restore.
    Eventually, you know this tool since the MS XP OS.
    You should find somewhere in accessories.

    If this procedure is not enough, you could use the Toshiba Recovery CD and could reinstall the whole OS!
    But before you make the installation of the recovery CD don t forget to back up your important data! ;)

    Good bye

  • Satellite L350-24U: how to clean the keyboard after having poured orange juice

    Hello out there.
    I spilled my L350-24U with Orange juice.
    Now, I have 4 keys to self-retaining :-(

    Can someone tell me how to clean the keyboard without damaging the laptop?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hmm, it's still a stupid situation
    Usually you can remove the keyboard of the laptop very easily.
    The keyboard is fixed with screws hidden under thin plastic cover near the line of F1 - F12 key.

    If you would remove plastic this cover then you would be able to remove the screws as well. Then you could lift the keyboard carefully and could disconnect the flat cable of the keyboard and the motherboard.

    Notes; two small latches on both sides of the connector must be moved in order to disconnect the cable.

    Then you could remove the keyboard and could clean it with a damp lint.
    PS: the caps can be removed too.
    But be very careful. You must raise the CAP to get it for free.

    There are many videos on youtube...

  • Satellite L745 - how to remove the keyboard safely?

    Hello, people!

    I need help please. As the topic says, how to remove the keyboard?
    It's because I shared tea on my keyboard and, fortunately, no key was damaged. However, now it is sticky, and it is quite annoying!

    Can someone please help me with the entrance keys, Shift, back space * and other small keys at home.

    Thanks in advance.

    Sticky Keys?
    I really put t know if you will be able to clean the little mechanism under the CAP.

    OK you can try it. What you need to do is remove the key cap first. Pull it gently on the floor. It is set with small farmers in plastic. When the CAP is removed, you can check the situation and try to clean it up.

    When finished put the CAP in place and push it all smoothly. You will hear clicking noise and everything should be OK again. Do it for all the keys.

    Please take it very easy. If you damage this small mechanism you can immediately order new lkeyboard.

  • Satellite A305 - how to clean the keyboard after juice spills

    Hey guys,.

    I had a the sSatellite series A305 an i could not find discussions on this exactly.
    Basically whats up's had one incident minor orange juice on the left side of the keyboard thankfully not a lot of juice to all minor.
    I managed to clean most on the surface. And had to work it's good enough to get out of the speaker box.

    However, some of the keys are a bit of stick now, i wondered if there are techniques to withdraw safely on that I must do before I try to block these keys. Hmm pressing on enter appear... in any case...

    I had one of these laptops before a few months ago, but one of the keys is broken somehow, after that, I got a little worried because I had to basically return it and get another laptop from work. If im sure it was a defective key with the last one I was not playing with keys, but I'm not sure how sustainable this is. Also this will probably also help to learn how to clean the keyboard, theres a bit of a dust and grump under the space bar which has been botherin me an i have no idea how to remove one get clean the dirt below.

    I'll check this post when I wake up in the morning. If you know the techniques of hair removal good explain please, I'm not very good with directions so patient with me.

    Hello

    To be honest, you will never be able to clean the keyboard. Break down the water is maybe not so bad, but the juice is sticky and can not be cleaned properly.
    I'm afraid that you need a new keyboard. :(

  • Satellite P750-13F - how to activate the keyboard backlit on Windows 8

    Hello!

    Today, I installed Windows 8 premium on my P750-13F, which features a backlit keyboard. In order to upgrade to Windows 8 I had to uninstall certain Toshiba drivers and other programs.

    Now, I have fully functional Windows 8, but I don't know how to access the functions of FN key (screen brightness, wifi power button, volume up/down).

    Now that the FN key is innoperative function that I miss the most is that for illumination of the keyboard, because I can still do everything else by other methods (I mean volume up/down, brightness etc) but I don't know how to illuminate the keyboard now.

    I tried to install the Toshiba hardware configuration utility, but it will not install with Windows 8. I like so much if the FN key remains innoperative (although that would be nice if it would not) but what I really want to be able to change the lighting of the keypad.

    I'll be very grateful for any ideas.

    Up to Toshiba doesn t offer Win8 tools and utility there is nothing you can do about it. I hope that will happen very soon.
    So please be patient until the stuff of Win8 will be offered for download.

  • How to change the keyboard on Portege M300-101?

    Hello

    I have a Portege M300-101, and I would like to know if there are instructions online for how to change the keyboard itself. Our unit comes with, I think, a Belgian keyboard installed... and a U.S. keyboard in the box. Are there instructions available for how to move on the keyboards? Also, I guess it's a good idea to switch the keyboard before turning on the laptop for the first time. Do you agree?

    Best,

    Hello Danis

    Unfortunately there is no public document on this subject. You can try to do it alone, but please don t forget that on this guarantee valid path will be cancelled. Basically, the replacement of keyboard is not well complicated and technicians may need 15 minutes to do.

    In my opinion, you can take a risk and pay for replacement before losing the valid guarantee. The Portege is very expensive and of damage to property, it is very risky to be unsecured.

    If you still think that you do not write anything again.
