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.

  • A Satellite Pro 6100 graphics card does not work correctly

    Hello!

    I have a Satellite Pro 6100 (PS610E - 02c 60-GR) 1.7 Ghz, 256 MB, 40 GB, 15XT and a Geforce4 420 Go (32 MB) graphic card. Until yesterday it was working properly. Now, there are colors on the screen and there was a blue screen a few times, which says something about my graphics card (it disappeared from fast read).
    I uninstalled the old driver and reinstalled twice. Nothing has changed. Also I tried with an external monitor, but there wasn't any change, too.

    Now my questions:
    1. is it possible to change the graphics card (in particular, can I do it alone without a technician)?
    2. How can I do this, is there some tutorials, especially for my laptop?
    3. an another Geforce4, but for example a Geforce4 440 Go with 64 MB of RAM would fit in my notebook?

    I thank very you much in advance!
    Lukas

    Hi Lukas

    The led flashes as it provides a microcode error!
    This is especially if the malfunction of hardware has been detected.
    I presume that the replacement of the graphics card is the reason!

    As in previous discussions suggested the replacement of the graphics card is NOT possible. You don't believe!
    Looks like that the BIOS cannot handle this new graphics chip.

  • 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 Pro C650 - cooling fan does not work

    My Satellite Pro C650 overheats and stops automatically within 20 minutes of leaving upwards. I checked the CPU fan and noticed that it does not turn upward, even if the laptop would become very hot. I tested the fan with a 9 volt battery and it works perfectly.

    Can someone tell me exactly what the problem is? And how to solve it.

    Thank you.

    > Can someone tell me exactly what the problem is?
    On this virtual path, no one can say with certainty what the problem is. We can only speculate what may be the problem.
    Usually, cooling fan starts immediately after starting the laptop slows down and offers the optimum temperature of material. After reading your ad I didn t understand how it works. He turns and there is no sign of life?
    Problem can be power.
    Cooling fan will be controlled by sensors of temperature and activity depends on the temperature of the material but if your machine cooling fan does not work, I imagine that there is no electric power.

  • Satellite Pro M30-701: TouchPad does not work after installation of XP Pro

    My touchPad does not work after reinstalling XP Pro OS with recovery disk. I install a driver for Toshiba M30 - 701 Synaptics TouchPad tpdrv-sp-m30-xp - 7920.zip

    Can you help me solve the my problem please?
    Excuse my bad English...
    Thank you
    Jorge Neto

    HI Jorge,.

    If you have reinstalled your system using the Toshiba recovery disks the touchpad should have the right drivers and be fully functional. I seem to remember that it is possible to disable the touch pad using one of the "keyboard shortcuts" (F9 on my SA30) in order to check that it has not been inadvertently pressed.

    Kind regards

  • Satellite Pro L100 - FN keys does not work

    When I press Fn + F5 to switch between my LCD and an external monitor, nothing happens. Do not see all the windows appear on my screen to display the current mode of the screen (LCD or external) while I'm activating/deactivating keys.

    By pressing Fn + F1 (function of the white screen) also does nothing.
    However, the brightness & related Fn + sound combinations work.

    It seems as if a utility somewhere does not work.

    Please notify.
    Thank you.

    Hello!

    You use Windows XP or Vista?
    For Vista, install the package on the Toshiba value added in.
    For XP, install the shortcut key utilities and utilities Toshiba.

  • Satellite Pro P750-136 - Bluetooth does not work.

    Hey

    Bluetooth to my P750 no longer works. I went to device management, and it was the bluetooth rfbus which seems to be the one who does not work despite the driver is correctly installed and updated.

    I have the laptop for a long time, so assume everything is a P750-136 default on w7. What would you suggest I do? I tried to reinstall the bluetooth stack thing with no luck (taking into account, the bluetooth is working).

    What happen when you try to activate the BT using the FN + F8 key combination?

  • Satellite Pro L40 - wireless adapter does not work - Vista

    I recently had some problems with my laptop.
    A couple of weeks, I put in a disc of OpenSuse.
    It's not stable anything, but locked me out of my original Vista operating system.

    I reinstallled Vista Home Basic, but there are a few problems.
    Mainly, my wireless adapter does not work.

    When I flip the button to turn it on nothing happens and it is not recognized in Windows.
    I installed Atheros Driver, but still nothing happens, light is not yet.

    Any advice?

    Hello

    First check the device-> network adapters area manager
    You see the WLan card? Or the unknown device appears?

    If there is an unknown device, then the WLan driver has not been installed correctly or you tried to install a driver badly these two options are possible.

    Remember that your wireless network card? Maybe it was a Realtek WLan card?

    If it's a Realtek WLan card, try the WLan driver from the Realtek website and look for 802.11 g (RTL8187B) chip or you will simply check the page of the European driver Toshiba too the Realtek WLan driver also appeared on the Toshiba page
