Re: Satellite C660 screen brightness adjustment does not work

Hello

Its been 10 days since I brought my Satellite C660 - series laptop.

Fn + F6 or Fn + F7 keys for brightness control do not work. I see no change in brightness. There is no information or indication of the setting shown on the display.

Can anyone suggest an alternative to set the brightness of the screen?

Other keys FN + Fx work correctly?
You can change the display brightness by using the power management option?

  • Re: Satellite Pro S500 - brightness adjustment does not work correctly

    On my Satellite Pro S500 (preinstalled Windows 7 64-bit) change the brightness by pressing FN - F6 or FN + F7 does not work. The other NF - f... combinations seem to work correctly.

    When I press FN - F6 (or F7) a control box to change the brightness to poster (as expected), but the level is still displayed as "1" independent of the current value (for example changed from Control Panel or with the eco utility) and it is not possible to change it with FN - F6 or F7. I just reinstalled vap and restarted the computer, but nothing has changed.

    Hi asdf.

    I put t know what s wrong exactly but normally the FN keys are associated with value added Package, but you wrote that you already reinstalled

    In my opinion, you should try a system restore to an earlier point. Maybe something messed up the registry, you can start System Restore in Windows Advanced Boot menu.

  • Satellite A100-683 with Win 7 - screen brightness adjustment does not work

    Hello

    I have a model of Satellite A100-683 PSAA9E with Win 7

    My problem is that I don't have a brightness in my dashboard-> laptop Center

    I tried to install the drivers from the site Web of Toshiba (additional package, return), but stops the installation always with errors such as: value added package: PVAT Setup error

    I tried to install the drivers for Vista...

    Please help me!
    Sorry for my English mistakes.

    Hello

    The installation may stop due to system problems or the PVAT erroneous version.
    I recommend you to uninstall the installed VAP.
    After the PVAT has been uninstalled, restart the laptop.
    Now, download and install the tool small freeware called CCLeaner.
    It helps to clean the system and deletes files temporal garbage from the HARD drive.
    After the cleaning of the system registry, you must restart the system once more.

    Now, go to the page of the Toshiba UE driver and download the Toshiba value added Package for Win 7. Note! Choose the right! There are differences between the 32-bit and 64-bit version.

    Unzip the package, run the exe from installation or installation file and start the installation.
    Installation should finish properly and after new reboot, you should be able to use the function keys.

  • Satellite A660 - 11 M - brightness adjustment does not work after hibernate

    Sometimes, I find that you use F6, F7 to control brightness does not work. This only seems to happen after a fresh reboot, but after being out of hibernation.

    I am running Win 7 Home Premium 64-bit and using the latest NVidia driver (obtained from toshiba yesterday Web site): 8.16.11.8988

    A way to solve this problem?

    Hello

    From my own experience, I can say that all the FN buttons work perfectly after hibernation, standby, restart, etc.. No problem at all!

    I put t know what is the problem, but in your case would be to reinstall the package of added value and utility to Support Flash Cards. Two tools to control the FN key functions and can be downloaded from the official page of Toshiba.

    But before you reinstall it, remove older versions first. Then install VAP, restart and finally Flash Cards Support utility.

  • Satellite C660 - new internal keyboard does not work

    Hello

    I'm completely stuck I have a portable satellite c660 keyboard did not work.
    So I bought a replacement keyboard and installed and checked in the Device Manager and it says it is there and works correctly, but the replacement keyboard still does not work.

    I updated the bios and uninstalled the keyboard drivers and reinstalled them that I've done everything I can think off to try and get this new keyboard working but I am having no luck and could so with some assistance.

    Have you ever checked if the USN external keyboard works properly?

    I ask because in the case where the external keyboard does not work properly, the internal keyboard problem could be related to faulty keyboard controller (motherboard) or a problem of system m.

    In case the external keyboard would work properly, you had any luck with the new keyboard. It might be possible that the new keyboard is malfunctioning.

  • Satellite C660 - the SHIFT key does not work

    Hello

    I have a problem with a Satellite C660.
    The keyboard, I cannot use the SHIFT key. After you have installed windows everything worked properly, the problem recurs after a few days. Practically the SHIFT key does not work.
    On the one hand I'm the A and the other side works like ESC.

    Help me I'm crazy.
    Thank you.

    Hello

    To me that sounds more like a keyboard failure, I can't imagine that it could be linked to the question of the windows operating system do you have tested an external USB keyboard.

    Please test this. In this case, you can check if it s really a software problem.
    If the USB keyboard works correctly, it means that your internal keyboard is malfunctioning.

  • Dell Inspiron 1520 screen brightness adjustment does not

    When I try to adjust the brightness of the screen by pressing the Fn key and pressing the up/down arrows, nothing happens. I finally found it to work several months ago. I downloaded Dell Quickset and BIOS update today, but this does not solve the problem. Any constructive suggestion appreciated.

    Brian

    I just tried this and IT WORKED! I don't know how much luck you'll have, but try the Fn key and pressing the up and down arrows while your computer starts. It worked for me. For my Inspiron 1420, I adjusted the brightness, while he was when the screen went black and the words "Microsoft Corporation" above and the Green loading bar going across the screen. That's what I did and I hope it works for you! :)

  • Left click the Satellite C660 Touch Pad/buttons does not work

    Hi guys!
    I own a Toshiba Satellite C660 (of course: P) anyway. Today, I was just doing what I do usually on my laptop,
    when suddenly the left button of the mouse has stopped working. (Bare with me, it's very weird to explain xD!) Also I can not 'left click' on my touch pad. I can still move the cursor with the touchpad and right click with the right button.

    I tried slightly shaking incase of crumbs, or something. Although I never eat around my laptop. It is not difficult to grow as there is something under it, it just doesn't work!

    In summary, I can't left click. But I'm able to move and made a click right, weird!

    For the moment I have my USB mouse plugged in my computer and it works fine, but it is very annoying!

    Sorry if I don't explain it too well!

    Help, please!

    On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what the problem is here. It is not easy to tell if the left touchpad button is faulty or disabled in some way.

    As a first step, you should check all the settings for the touchpad. If your laptop computer has preinstalled software check Synaptics all parameters associated with the touchpad buttons.

  • Satellite C660 - Synaptics pointing device does not work

    I use a Satellite C660 32-bit laptop.
    After that uninstall and removal of a large number of unnecessary programs to free up space I found that disc my touchpad not working more.

    It won't scroll up and down, left and right more.
    So I don't know if I deleted this program by mistake. Can't do a system restore either because that which is also eliminated.

    Help, please...

    I assume that you have not disabled the device or damaged Windows installation - the mouse is as fundamental as the keyboard and would need some removal of smart to 'delete '.

    Have you checked the State of the key in the Device Manager?
    You have a small button near the touch pad that turns off?
    If missing just the driver, then, you have 3 options

    1. click on 'My product to support' near the top of this page and follow / complete the pages to find the Toshiba touch pad driver

    2. access the synaptec site and download the driver

    3 go to Uscrybe.com, a synaptic site and download the driver - more features than 1 or 2
