Re: Backlight LCD rest not work on Portege R500

Well, I'll explane you my problem, I have a Portege R500 NoteBook. Yesterday, when I was working with my laptop, I had to move, and something strange happened. The LCD has started on and off, and then the light remained off the coast. When I push the backlight button to turn it on, the light gets on only one second and then automatically go down again.
I think that the button is disabled or something like that.

Please, can you help me?

Kind regards.

When the light is off, you see something on the screen and computer office or else plans?

And backlight button do you mean? I assume that, if this happens sporadically, only the subsystem of LCD or maybe something around the screen has some hardware poorly run and should be checked by an authorized service provider.

I would like to learn more about your problem, then maybe we can proobably exclude some hardware for error...

If not, you should check on the Mainpage Toshiba for the support home page and search for the next provider of services available in your country.

Welcome them

  • Re: Button on the upper right does not work on Portege R500

    Hello

    At the top right of my keyboard (Portege R500) theres a button that shows a place in the foreground with a Sun in the background.

    I guess it is a kind of glare/brightness button to be used outdoors.
    However pressing this does nothing.

    Can anyone suggest what's this button and how do I make it work?

    See you soon,.

    I think you're talking about the outdoor switch.

    This backlight button on / off turns on and off the display backlight s.

    Are you sure that you do not notice any difference this button?

    If you turn off the back light outside in good weather, you can use the computer for an extended period.

    Maybe I m wrong, but usually he should be able to configure this button in the power OS Options.

  • CTRL keys do not work on Portege R500

    Both CTRL keys do not work on my Portege (Vista Biz) 500.

    I guess this isn't a hardware problem. Because that both keys are not recognized even though I hardly use the CTRL button on the right.

    I don't know if it is caused by a program (newly installed). I've just updated BIOS 1.6 without effect.

    I also tried to boot the system with Linux on a USB key. Also, the keys do not work on Linux.

    Does anyone have experience with this problem?
    Can I remove the keyboard driver and reinstall it? Could someone explain the procedure?

    Thank you for all the advice

    > laptop does not respond to the Ctrl + alt + delete even before starting an OS (for example, while being in its menu of BIOS).
    The keys Ctrl + alt + delete key combination can be used ONLY in Windows OS
    It will work not in the BIOS or Windows boot has not been done!

    Finally, you must make sure that your laptop uses the latest version of the BIOS.
    If a newer BIOS is available that be updated!

    If this does not help, retrieve the device using Toshiba drive!
    If the key still won't work, then you should get in touch with an ASP in your country.

    Here are the steps you have to do

  • Satellite 1200 - LCD does not work

    Hello!

    I have laptop Satellite 1200-s121. One day the lcd did not work. She did not show a picture, just light worked, and I've also seen a few black pixels and color and also a few black pixels slowly changed to white.

    I changed the cable but nothing happened. laptop fed up, the other monitor worked, but I don't see anything on the lcd screen. Same light did not work and I can not change the output for LCD by pressing the FN and F5 keys. I also tried to change drivers.

    Hi ldoodle,

    Hello

    I think that your keyboard is faulty.
    Connect an external USB keyboard and check if both CTRL would work.
    If both work correctly using the external keyboard, then your internal keyboard should be replaced to solve this problem.

  • Toshiba Digitizer Pen does not work on Portege Z10T-A

    I bought new Toshiba Digitizer Pen PA5133U-1EUC.

    The link below, this pen is compatiable on my laptop. But it does not work. Y at - it no adjustment or the driver of this pen?

    http://www.Toshiba.com/us/accessorie...s/PA5133U-1EUC

    I think you should check if the device supports the digitizer and if so, you will need to calibrate the pen and touch settings.

    For this I recommend that you review the Microsoft FAQ on pen and touch settings:

  • Touchpad does not work on Portege R100

    Hello

    I have recently boght a Toshiba Portege R100 without any installation CD Windows XP Home Edition worked fine but the touchpad is not.

    I installed additional drivers of Toshiba. Now, I'm able to adapt to all kinds of things about the Touchpad, but still it does not work. I was also running Knoppix 5.2 since July 2007. Same problem with Linux.

    Have I not a faulty laptop? How will I know, please?

    Have you tested the touchpad with Windows XP?
    You connected an external USB mouse and you have the same problem?

    Normally the touchpad should work without a driver, they are part of the operating system.
    You can disable/enable it with FN + F9.
    I'm not sure, but you can also enable/disable the touchpad in the BIOS.

    It could be that the touchpad is defective, but ask an ASP for help. They can check the necessary parts for laptop and Exchange.

  • Satellite A100 - 906 internal LCD does not work

    Hello, I have laptop Toshiba Satellite A100-906, and I struggle with internal LCD. Only three gray belts are displayed with horizontal lines or without. Backligt works. External monitor works.
    Initially, the screen freezes sometimes but after short time continue to work. But now is still dead.
    What is defekt? LCD or graphics card? It's the Geforce Go 7600 with 256 MB.

    Help, please.

    > External monitor works too.
    You said that external monitor is not affected. Right?

    Well, in this case I think that the graphics card is OK and the problem is related to the internal display.
    If the graphics chip would be affected, both screens would not work properly.

  • Satellite A500-1GL upgraded with keyboard backlight, but do not work

    Hello

    I have a laptop Toshiba A500-1GL.
    I wanted to upgrade with a backlit keyboard, so I went to an authorized Toshiba reseller in my area (Portsmouth, UK) and after checking the laptop, they said yes, it supports a backlit keyboard and it cost around 90 pounds (about 140 dollars) the price of the backlit keyboard and the cost of installation.
    So I said okay, let...

    But the keyboard does not work!
    I went back to the place where I bought, and I asked the guy (yet) "are you sure that my laptop takes in charge the backlit? ... He said yes, and in fact he removed the keyboard and showed me 2 connectors (one to attack the keyboard and fix the lighting cable)

    Then. My computer supports portable backlit keyboard... But it's not working!
    I tried to reinstall the package added value, Flash card... Chipset... almost anything!
    But it still does not (it should work when I click Fn + Z)

    What can I do now?

    I can't return the keyboard, because the guy said "sry its now use!
    So, what should I do? Is there something I should install/remove I'm missing or what?

    Any help will be appreciated...

    See you soon.

    Hello

    What to say either the technician has done something wrong or the laptop is not extensible.

    As far as I know the keyboard lighting is controlled by the BIOS.
    In my case, I can disable and enable it in the BIOS.

    I don't know if your BIOS contain this option, but you could check it
    Please note that each model of mobile phone is supported and some BIOS each BIOS is different.

    In my opinion if the BIOS does not support this feature you so would not be able to activate the lighting, even if the keyboard has been installed.

  • FN keys do not work on Portege R200

    no idea what to do when the * FN keys * do not work? I press FN and want to adjust the brightness or volume or toggle the touchpad, but it simply doesn't. Do I need to install a driver? If some parameters are simply off somewhere?

    Appreciate any input. Thank you.

    Hello

    I put t see serious reasons why the XP operating system shouldn't t work on the Portege R500.
    AFAIK that Toshiba XP drivers are out on European Toshiba driver page and everything should work after the installation of all the XP drivers and tools of Toshiba.

    The right installation order is very important. Please see the installation instruction txt file placed on the page to get the correct order.

    By the way; the instillation of XP will not void the warranty ;)

  • FN + F5 to change device display does not work on Portege R600

    Portege R600-11 b Win 7 ultimate
    I wanted to show my photos on the TV using the vga output. Connected everyting, pressed FN + F5 and watch LCD dialog box. Support again, still lcd. tried the keys of direction, no joy, still lcd.

    plugged my trusty R100 instead of the R600 and bingo, works very well

    I'm sure this used to work on the R600 90%. (Actually, what I remember is that it just worked first time with no keyboard at all operations).

    Someone suggest anything happy?

    Steve

    It seems that your TV is not recognized correctly.
    Did you use FN + F5 option in the past?
    Are you using the original pre-installed OS that you got with your laptop Portege?

  • dv2500 .backlighting (dv2840se) does not work.

    I am NOT at all informed, PC... But that's my problem: I can vaguely see the login page. I can fill my password, click on and then see the icons appear in the left margin. But I can't read them all because the lighting is too low. Pressing the key backlight doesn't do absolutely nothing. Is it possible that I can avoid CHARGES from $299.00 I was quoted. ? Being retired and on fixed income doesn't make any easier.

    Sounds like the LCD backlighting is indeed there.  Check your warranty to see if HP can replace them for you.  The guarantee can be verified here:

    http://www13.itrc.HP.com/service/ewarranty/warrantyResults.do?admit=109447627+1286541891570+28353475

    In the meantime if you have an external monitor you can use it as a workaround for now plug it into the laptop and pressing fn + f4 for a current keyboard layout.

    Or if it is out of warranty, you can try to order a replacement LCD screen and pay out of pocket for this and replace it yourself.  You can find the service manual for your model on the HP site and then use the schemas provided in it as a plan for the replacement process.
