Question about menu keys FN on Vista

I installed Windows Vista and all Toshiba drivers and utilities and everything worked very well. Then after a while the FN menu appearing at the top of the screen is no longer there and the FN keys do not work.

I have uninstall and reinstalled everything but the same problem still exists. I was wondering if anyone has any idea.
My laptop is Satellite A100 (PSAA9).

Hello

I agree with Malditazo. I installed Vista several times on the same model of laptop and everything worked fine. When it is idle this FN menu is hidden, but a little more visible when you look at the top of the screen. You see nothing?

I also noticed that you have to wait about 2 or 3 seconds before that this menu will appear.

    I have a Satellite A110 which is compatible with Vista, but recovery of product is Windows XP.
    I use my cd of restoration of friends and it work perfect until it tell me to put the product key for vista Home premium
    I used the product key with the cd, they said it is not acceptable.
    give me the solution

    Solution? Buy your own Vista and use it with the activation code valid. The button located on the bottom side belongs to the Windows XP Home edition version, that you got with recovery media. It is not a kind of universal key.

  • Question about function keys and cards Flash on my Satellite A210 - 10 c

    Hi people,

    I reinstall Vista without the recovery CD and now the FN keys work, but not all. That is, I can't lock the Touchpad and the FlashCards also didn't come down, if I press a FN key.
    The user darksys tell about it (http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/click.jspa?searchID=172641&messageID=100112) it is useful to install the Flash memory card Support utility that is not available on the European download Site. So I downloaded it from the Canadian Site, but during the Installation it tells me I have an invalid Nummber Serial? !!
    I have a satellite A-210-10 c (model Nummber: PSAEGE-xyz). So I think the installation tells me I have an invalid series because it's for another series of model.

    Its boring, the drafting of a text, and then suddenly the mouse jump lent else because I press the button by mistake...

    So I hope that someone could help.

    So long...

    Hello

    Check the support site of Toshiba Europe again to see if there is ever a version for VAP. I have a A200 and there was a problem with VAP installed in the recovery image.

    I deleted it from the system and installed the latest version of the Toshiba support page. Now, by pressing the key of KN, flash cards appear very fast and I can use al of them without any problem.

    Also check the touchpad settings. There must be also the option to disable touchpad.

  • Questions about running the XP on Vista Games

    I've been curious about using older games of XP on Vista and have not been able to find clear answers to this topic with my own research on the internet.  I'm a Fan of First Person Shooter, and they are scarce since Vista came out.  So I would like to add a few shooters of Vista I have with some of the older games, but I have questions to do.

    My questions are:

    1. If I have an old XP game that is listed as not compatible with Vista can still use it if I play it in compatibility mode for XP SP2? (The game's FEAR)
     
    2. This will mess up my system Vista SP1?

    3. If I install 2 or 3 of these old games XP on my Vista SP1 pc and run in XP SP2 compatibility mode microsoft at some point let me no update Vista again?

    4. should I patch older XP games so I don't want?  I just want to play on solo not online.

    (The games are FEAR, DOOM3, QUAKE4 and PREY). Everything for one player only.

    I had these issues since I got Vista.  I couldn't really find that responses indicated clearly by someone I thought I knew what they were talking about so I hope that I can help.

    Thank you
    Jebidia

    Hello Jebidia,

    Thank you for posting.  You have very valid questions and I have some answers.  I currently play FEAR (tested prey in the past) on my Vista Ultimate 64-bit without problems no matter what.  I'd say you do a regular install of the games and they should work fine.  Now if you have some problems, and then reinstall the game in compatibility mode.  As for your other questions, you should have no worries about the game, do not let you Vista update.  Patch games can sometimes resolve known problems that the games themselves are with compatiblities hardware Vista and possible.  You can search for Tweakguides to find a site very useful for players.

    So go and FPS in your heart happy my friend. Zack

  • Question about the license of Windows Vista

    Hello. I didn't know where I should post this. I have Windows Vista, I purchased an upgrade. My question is, "I am allowed to install the software on a friends computer. Because I don't need the software, can I sell the software. I know that Microsoft has its policies, but I don't know what they are. I don't want to do something that I'm not supposed to do.

    Thank you.

    Original title: Microsoft Software

    Hello

    You posted in the appropriate Forum.

    Yes, a retail upgrade license can be transferred, as long as it is removed from where it was originally installed.

    One license is for a SINGLE Installation.

    ___________________________________

    These are the General rules for OEM and retail licenses, which can also help you in the future:

    If the machine came with the preinstalled Windows operating system (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.), this product key supplied with the laptop is preinstalled OEM license and is not transferable.

    OEM license/product key (systems of operating pre-installed on Dell, HP, etc.) is related to the first machine it is installed on and dies when dies of this machine.

    Only retail Operating System license that you buy and install yourself, are allowed to be transferred to another machine.

    And retail licenses also can be installed on a machine at one time.

    See you soon

  • Question about product key Windows XP Pro on Satellite A135-S4427

    I have an A135-S4427 which came with Windows Vista.
    As I did not like the vista I formatted and installed Windows Xp Professional with SP2 and got all the drivers working.
    All I need now is a product key for activation of windows. I tried to use the key which is at the bottom of my laptop... but did not work.

    Any help please?
    I appreciate any help on this...

    Thank you

    HI penny,

    The product key on the bottom of your laptop is specific to the OEM of VISTA that came bundled with your noteook version. If you have installed a different operating system, then you must use the product key provided with the operating system that you have installed. It will be normally provided in the CD itself or on the packaging.

    Kind regards

  • Question about multimedia keys on Satellite P300-23F

    I would like some information on the "enlightened ones" touch key on the top of the keyboard. What tool or application is responsible for leash work or configure. I have upgraded my laptop from Vista Home Premium, Ultimate, and had of course download and install all the drivers and utilities separately.
    The only thing of leaks are these keys. I'm not seucceeded to let them work. I installed VAP, Assist etc.

    Thanks in advance for the monitoring

    My laptop is a P300-23F

    Kind regards
    Jan van IJsseldijk

    At first, I must say that there is no difference between Vista Home Premium and Ultimate. All Toshiba tools are designed to be used for all versions of Vista. So if you install all the stuff from the download page of Toshiba you should have the same State as the original preinstalled Vista Home Premium. Tools and utilities are the same, and also features are absolutely identical.

    All that you have done is just. VAP is package and contains requests for follow-up:
    -Toshiba components pilot common
    -Toshiba Utilities
    -Toshiba PC Diagnostic tool
    -Toshiba Power Saver
    -Toshiba Button support
    -Toshiba zooming utility
    -Toshiba Flash cards

    Please also install Toshiba HWSetup. There you can find the option to turn on/off illumination.

    All other buttons should work with Windows media player. You can also make them work with Winamp but there is another theme. If you want to know how to let me know.

  • Satellite A100 - questions about the keys to the left hand and added value package

    Hello:

    The work of doesn´t special keys on left hand. I mean, the keys under the power on button which usually starts the web browser and works with the DVD.

    Another question. The value-added package that was installed on my laptop has got a call from the Toshiba Fash utility maps. When I upgraded to the latest version (previosly I had to uninstall it) this SW is not installed. How can I get it back?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Value added contains several applications:
    -Toshiba components pilot common
    -Toshiba Utilities
    -Toshiba PC Diagnostic tool
    -Toshiba Power Saver
    -Toshiba Button support
    -Toshiba zooming utility
    -Toshiba Flash cards

    So as you can see, the button support is included in this package. I don't know what the problem is on your laptop, but when the VAP is installed correctly the multimedia buttons and Flash cards should work correctly.

    Try again please remove VAP system, restart the computer and install the latest version available. This latest version works well on the different laptop models (on my Satellite P200D too) and it should work on your too.

  • Satellite A100-334: Question about upgrading from XP to Vista

    I need help to upgrade my A100-334 to vista!
    I use the disks provided by toshiba. It is said that the new Bios is already installed (vers.5.60).

    After running the second drive it says I need to uninstall Driver driver/BD DVD-RAM and Toshiba configfree.

    Then he said that the following issues will not prevent the upgrade of the execution but that some applications or elements may not work properly. The list is long.

    Here are some examples:
    Diagnostic tool for TOSHIBA, Sun Java Scheduler, TOSHIBA controls, Bluetooth TOSHIBA Power saver settings and so on.

    It is recommended to uninstall all of these objects?
    What can I do?

    I appreciate any help thanks - Detlef

    Hi Detlef

    Well, what to say if I understand your question you didn t make a new, clean install Vista, but you tried to upgrade the full XP to Vista.

    I don't wonder that this doesn't update good conduct and that you get notifications on the tools and driver compatibility issues.

    The fact is that many drivers, tools and utilities that are designed for the operating system XP don t run on the Vista operating system. That is why it s necessary and desirable to remove any programs that are not compatible with Vista!

    In my opinion, you must perform a clean installation of Vista, and then you can download and install all the drivers Toshiba Vista required and utilities.

    Best regards and greetings to Germany ;)

  • QUESTIONS ABOUT A KEY

    I own a pre more on Verizon. I read the numerous posts describing problems with the difficulties of keyboard key. What I haven't seen is a solution to the problem. Personally, the size of the keyboard is OK. On an untrusted key issues are driving me crazy. The key to worse on my Pre + is the key 'e' and a few others, mostly on the top row of keys. First of all, I press anything, again, maybe nothing or several entries of 'e', the 'y' is the second bad. Same questions. ANYONE done anything to solve this problem?

    Thank you for your response.

    My Pre + is updated to the current version.

    I did the test on the keyboard. The 'e' key was the only one who still cannot be displayed to the press. It would be displayed to the press of 2nd or 3rd.

    Thanks for your help.

  • question about Chroma Key

    Hi, I'm Andre.

    This is my first time posting a question on this site. I use Adobe Premiere Pro 2 and I stop motion animation. In my video, I have

    use a lot of greenscreen. I know how to apply the key filter chroma on a single image, but I

    just has too many pictures and I was wondering if there is a way to apply chroma key filter to all individual photos at once, instead of me going to apply an overlay image by image after another. Thanks in advance!

    Assuming all your screens green are approximately the same, you can copy the filter of the first for the other executives. Highlight the window effect 'control the effect', press control + c, highlight the target executives and press Ctrl + v. The problem will be if the green screens are too different.

  • Question about primary key

    Hello

    I'll build a database to automate Center at my University

    The version of database is Oracle 10 g v2

    What kind of primary key data should I user?

    I used the number in the past, but I've heard there are most efficient data type for this purpose

    Thank you

    BINARY_FLOAT and BINARY_DOUBLE types are designed to store floating-point numbers. If you generate synthetic primary keys using a sequence, you generate integers. It is absurd from a point of view to store data from integer to floating point fields of data modeling. And it is exceptionally dangerous if a value is rounded up unexpectedly (floating-point numbers lose precision for the bits from the right)

    You need to specify, for me, that means more "useful for indexing. The extent of the storage space is going, there may be some space savings using a BINARY_FLOAT and BINARY_DOUBLE types if you have very large values of primary key, but there will be a penalty of space for values generated by a more 'normal' sequence, i.e.

    SQL> create table x (
      2    col1 number,
      3    col2 binary_float,
      4    col3 binary_double
      5  );
    
    Table created.
    
    SQL> insert into x values( 1, 2, 3 );
    
    1 row created.
    
    SQL> select length(col1), length(col2), length(col3) from x;
    
    LENGTH(COL1) LENGTH(COL2) LENGTH(COL3)
    ------------ ------------ ------------
               1            8            8
    
    SQL> insert into x values (1e20, 1e20, 1e20 );
    
    1 row created.
    
    SQL> select length(col1), length(col2), length(col3) from x;
    
    LENGTH(COL1) LENGTH(COL2) LENGTH(COL3)
    ------------ ------------ ------------
               1            8            8
              21           15            8
    
    SQL> select * from x;
    
          COL1       COL2       COL3
    ---------- ---------- ----------
             1   2.0E+000   3.0E+000
    1.0000E+20   1.0E+020   1.0E+020
    

    So it takes 8 times the storage to store a 1 in a BINARY_FLOAT and BINARY_DOUBLE types it does to store in a column for the NUMBER. But it takes less space if you store values such as 1e20 (1 to 20 of 0). If you store values large enough to get the benefit of space, however, you're going to have rounded up questions that will result in the application not to function, as you can imagine is probably a much bigger problem than a bit of disk space wasted.

  • Question about product key for Win7 and upgrade Win8

    Please correct me if I'm wrong.

    I got the impression that it is a key to general product on the back of most mobile phones HYF8J-CVRMY-CM74G-RPHKF-*.

    If I bought the victory 8 update and it activated on my * office * (assuming I installed win7 using this key) what does that mean? Since it is a General key on many laptops.

    This means that I am legally eligible to upgrade?

    Hello

    Above all, the key of Win 7 you can find on the lower part belongs to the preinstalled image.
    It is the key of Win 7. Your Windows 7 system has already been activated by default

    Now to win 8 upgrade:
    Visit this page to upgrade Toshiba EU win 8 for details:

    Is there something I can do before I return it to the dealer?

    Hi Bob

    It's really not easy to say why this is happening. The only thing you can try is to reinstall the OS using the recovery CD.

    In my opinion it shouldn't happen if the unit is a new brand. Please contact your dealer and ask him if you can have another. You paid for a new product and it should work properly.
