Re: Satellite A100-083 - letters keyboard automatically

Hello

I work with a Satellite A100-083, Windows XP SP2. Since about a month ago following problem appears from time to time:
While typing in my browser or e-mail program (both are by Mozilla) my computer types, the letters "ITU" turns on the capslock and opens new browser windows (on: white, which is my startpage config.).

Of course, this sounds like having a virus, a Trojan or sth. like this, but after running a few different antispyware and antivirus software, without solving the problem and these days without finding infected files. I tried to find something about a Trojan horse that acts like this in the internet - some subjects having the problem without solutions or set the Trojan horse (if it is one). Beside that the problem is not there all the time. Sometimes, it does not for about 2 days and go back after that.

Now I wonder if she could be affected by another source.

Any ideas or similar cases?

Thank you.

Hi unfun.

I put t think it is a virus problem. Why a virus is expected to cause such an action?

At the moment for me, it sounds like a malfunction of the keyboard and recommend test another keyboard (external). So you can check if the problem is software related or not. You can use a USB of your desktop keyboard to do this.

Check this box!

  • Satellite A100-225 "Floating" keyboard

    Hello
    I bought a brand new A100-225 and found that the top row keys - p and the ajoining numbers above seem to drop a little further that other keys and they feel different. Also when I press the seprator - between the F key and numbers, in the middle right of the band, when I press lightly, it makes a grinding sound and down a little.

    Is this normal for this series? Or is there something I should be concerned?

  • Satellite A100 (PSAAN) turns off automatically

    When I try to do some actions as the portable audio and video conversion just turn off.
    Then turn off fan start working faster and then click sound examples and everything on.
    I have to turn it on again.

    This is temp without conversion

    When converting it comes up to 85

    It is a clear case to me.

    The problem described is related to overheating.
    Overheating is caused by different reasons, but the main reason are the dust and debris inside the cooling modules.
    Cooling modules do not work with the best performance because of the dust, which leads to a higher temperature and finally to overheating.

    The laptop stops automatically to prevent the equipment from damage.
    I think if the fans would be carefully clean then you should be able to solve this annoying problem.

    The jet of compressed air can be very useful. It is a professional tool and can be bought in most computer resellers.

  • Satellite A100 - 784 PSAANE - screen turns off automatically

    Hi friends,

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A100 - 784 PSAANE with windows visa Home Basic edition.
    Now for 15-20 days I am facing a strange problem. The screen of the laptop emits a sometimes (not necessarily every time) and then when the frequency increases the display turns off automatically!
    Then I must Hibernate or he put laptop to sleep to find again the screen... Seriously, I don't understand the problem.

    Please help me.
    Thanks in advance

    Hi Julie,.

    It sounds as if something is harming your graphics driver causing the display to turn off. If the problem occurs only when you use certain applications or only started after installing a new application you may need to restore your system to a restore point before new applications have been installed. As a test, you can try to start your system in safe mode and see if the problem persists.

    I also recommend that you re-install your graphics drivers to see if it improves the problem.

    Other possibilities are that your graphics chip is a failure or overheating causing this problem in which case you have to return your laptop to a Service approved for the additional diagnostic agent.

    My last thought is that you may have a problem with the inverter FL (the component that provides the lighting of your LCD screen). Check, when the screen turns off, if you can still see a residual image on the screen. If yes then the FL inverter is definitely at fault.

    Kind regards

  • Install the new keyboard in Satellite A100 laptop computer

    Recently, we have removed the keyboard on my laptop Toshiba Satellite A100 to clean as some of the keys were sticking.

    After you find the instructions to do this, it was easy enough to remove. Rinse us the keyboard with clear water and made sure that it is completely dry before reinstalling it.
    Now only some keys work about 3 on each line on the right side. Fortunately, enough to have another exact keyboard of an older A70, we have tried to install this one in the place and the same thing, only a few keys on the right side of work.

    We hung a desktop mouse and wireless keyboard and all the keys work fine. No idea why will work only a few keys with two keyboards of laptpp and how do I fix this? Thank you

    Hello

    I m not very well why some keyboard keys work and some don't work properly but if the flat cable that connects the keyboard and the jury has been plugged in properly then you can see this question as if the cable is loose, then you will notice the same problems

    If you are sure that the keyboard and cable are correct, there is a great chance that the malfunction of the card system to 100%

  • Re: Satellite A100-638 has a stuck key even when I unplug the keyboard.

    I have a Satellite A100-638 with a stuck tab button, up to now, I got around the problem by using a USB keyboard and keytweaking program.

    Unfortunately recently I got problems of coherence on the disk. I installed Win XP on and I can't do a consistency check due to the cancellation scans if no key is pressed. I tried to unplug the keyboard of the laptop motherboard, I think I made the success, but the Tab key always records as being pressed.

    The USB keyboard is fine and has no problem whatsoever.

    If someone could help, I'd appreciate it.

    Looks like the keyboard on the motherboard controller may be defective.

    Are you sure this isn't a driver/software problem? Have you recently installed a USB mouse?

    Now, how come back to start bios version...

    Enter the BIOS (by pressing F2 at startup) and try to check in the Bios if compatible keyboard, legacy usb support (something like that) is enabled. It should help.
    Otherwise, playing with the up/downgrade Bios (especially, demote) instead of keyboard problem, can cause the crash of the complete system with white screen.

  • Satellite A100-003: Questions on keyboard

    Two questions:

    1. What is the product of my keyboard type and computers laptop Toshiba have the same?

    2. can I have my extra keyboard buttons in a Linux system? (Ubuntu 7.10 Gutsy Gibbon)

    (1) the satellite A100 was equipped with a keyboard that supports 86 keys; 2 Windows keys and 1 shortcut key.
    Seems that the A100 series was equipped with this keyboard

    (2) I assume you mean the keys FN and Toshiba control buttons.
    Well, if you want to use these buttons, you will need a compatible driver from Toshiba.
    The fact is that Toshiba doesn't support Linux and doesn't provide drivers for Linux distribution. This is why you will not be able to use these keys running Linux.
