Re: Portege R500 - FN keys no longer works

Hello

I have a laptop Portege R500, and suddenly the fn keys stopped working. I looked for off site Web from Toshiba, but no pilots have had no luck and also tried reinstalling the common Modules (I just re-installed, it is necessary to uninstall anything before hand?).

I use the OS is XP SP2. I tried a system restore and don't really want to do a full system restore.

Basically, I just want to get them working again.

Any help would be appreciated and thanks in advance.

Matt

Hello

The common Modules should be resettled in too, but it would also be necessary to reinstall the Hotkey utilities for display devices.

By the way; You must clean the registry using the free program called CCleaner.
You can download many Web sites. Google simply

After use of this applications reinstall the common Modules and the Hotkey utilities for display devices.

Good bye

    If a yellow exclamation point appears in the device, close the USB hubs\controller Manager, then a USB driver problem would be possible.
    In most cases, a new installation of USB might help to get rid of this annoying problem of USB.

    -Remove and disconnect all external USB devices that are connected to the laptop.
    -Go to the Device Manager and remove the USB hubs and USB controllers.
    -reboot the machine.

    New OS reboot should reinstall USB drivers, and the operating system should recognize the USB ports again. After this short intervention, connect the external USB CD. DVD player and check if it would show up in my computer

  • Portege R500 - ctrl keys have stopped working

    Hello

    Two control keys have stopped working on my laptop. The fact that it is both of them gives to think that there isn't something physically wrong with the key. I can't do a ctrl + letter for example to copy, paste, select all, or again ctrl + alt + delete

    Can anyone suggest how to recover these keys?

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    A combination of keys that would disable the CTRL buttons does not for me.
    But I recommend that you check the options of common keyboard as etc., FN + F12 FN + F10, Capslock, FN + F11

    In addition, you could test the laptop with an external USB keyboard.
    If the CTRL works using an external keyboard, this problem would be related to the hardware problem.

  • Portege R500 shortcut keys work not

    Quick access keys (or function keys) no longer work on my Portege R500 even if the F10 and F11 keys work. I don't know exactly when they stopped working, or if it's related to a particular event.

    I use Windows XP. SP 3

    I tried to downlowd various updates of drivers from this site, but without success.

    I downloaded the latest driver for hotkeys however, after having extracted the files, when I select tfnf5.exe and try to run it, nothing happens. I am unable to delete the file, because it tells me that it is in use.

    When I try to start Toshiba Accessibility, I get a message "the system cannot use Toshiba Accessibililty". (I don't know why there is a comma after the system).

    Any ideas please?

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    In order to get the FN keys to work, you must first install the common Module!
    Then follow with Hotkey utilities for display devices, hotkey utilities and wireless

    This should help you get the buttons working again!

    Probably nothing, it's probably a fluke. Try resetting the SMC and the PRAM by iMac Intel SCM and reset the PRAM. If this does not work, try a USB keyboard to test, if it works then your original keyboard has failed and must be replaced.

    All of a sudden these keys no longer work on the computer when I'm on the internet. They sometimes work in PDF files in Word, but otherwise, they do not work...

    Hello

    I agree with the user above. I think the keyboard needs to be replaced if certain keys n t work. The fact is that individual keys can t be bought, you can only buy the whole keyboard but it isn't so expensive.

    You can get a new keyboard to an authorized service provider. On the Toshiba page you can find a list where you can find an ASP.

  • Satellite M30 - two keys no longer work

    I have a very frustrating problem with my keyboard M30-106. Two of the keys no longer work IE, the Enter key and the button 'to '. I lifted the Board to see if it needs cleaning, but apparently not. Can someone tell me what I need to do to fix this problem?

    Hello

    If these two buttons are certainly defective there is nothing to see. As you know the essential mechanism is very small and very delicate. As much as I know it's not possible to order the buttons separately, but in my opinion, you should contact the Service of your country partner and explain the problem. Maybe they have a solution outside keyboard replacement.
