Re: Tecra R840 - function (Fn) stoped working keys

Hello

I have a R840 with Win7 Professional 64 bit.

My last problem: the Fn keys will stop working (for example, I can't use the brightness upward or downwards with the F6/F7 key). After reboot, everything is normal... until it stops working in the near future (next day or almost!).

I uninstalled the value pack and reinstalled without success!
I completely uninstalled the value pack... without success!

Any help?

Thank you
Paulo

> until it stops working in the near future (next day or almost!).

The Fn keys are controlled by the Support of Flash Card Utility
This utility to Support Flash Card can be found under all programs-> Toshiba
If you must restart the cards Flash for the Fn keys working again

  • Tecra R840-A222 - Windows XP Drivers needed

    Hello everyone, I am currently planning to purchase the Tecra R840 - A222 (PT42KV) here in Saudi Arabia and I need to know if this model has Windows XP drivers for it. On the driver download page, I can see two short-model for this R840-A222 numbers. They are PT42KV and PT42KE.

    The PT42KV has only about five drivers XP while the PT42KE has virtually all the drivers for Windows XP.
    Is someone can you please tell me if for the PT42KE XP drivers will also apply to the PT42KV?

    I am especially concerned by the base which consists of the chipset graphic, audio, ethernet drivers, and others for material of this model. I use this camera mainly for engineering software (PLC programming, diagnosis of the vehicle and other who need the XP platform).

    > On the driver download page, I can see two short-model for this R840-A222 numbers. They are PT42KV and PT42KE.

    As far as I know XP for Tecra R840 PT42KE drivers should work on Tecra R840 PT42KV too.

  • Tecra R840-16J - FN keys no function

    Hello

    I have a problem with my Tecra R840-16J. Sometimes, I use the FN keys (the most I use is F6 and F7 for brightness) sometimes I can't! They are disabled singles! And if I press on the window of "windows Mobility Center" ECO button will be displayed and the brightness will be there if the F6/F7 keys are still active and will not be there if the keys are not active more!

    Hello Paulo

    I put t really know what the problem is here and why do you have this problem, but without cleaning preinstalled OS (factory settings) something like that shouldn't happen.

    What you can try is to remove preinstalled Toshiba value added package, restart the system and install the latest version of the Toshiba download page - http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    Please post comments.

  • Tecra R840-10 t has no work webcam or USB 3.0 port

    Even if this [another thread | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=62061&start=15&tstart=0] has been marked as resolved, the problems remain, but are not related to the bone, hw-partners.

    1 week after that I got a Tecra R840-10 t (PT429E-00M007EP) of Windows 7 have frozen at startup and the fan run at maximum speed. All I could do was to enter safe mode. After a factory reset (reinstalling OS of the hidden HD partition), not even the safe mode worked!
    Took back to the store, 2 days later a local Toshiba representative referred to the store as fixed (they have updated the BIOS...)

    2-3 weeks later, same problem. I called Toshiba directly, they have picked up the laptop, took almost 2 weeks and sending parts of the Germany twice before they sent it. I had to call them to find out they were going to deliver the next day. So far it seems to be fixed, Windows has not frozen since.

    However, now, little more than a month after I bought this laptop from professional quality, I noticed that, on his return, the USB 3.0 port (as long as this port) and the webcam does not work. They do not appear in the Device Manager, update their drivers through page for the download of Tecra yields nothing (and you have to go through hoops to actually install the webcam driver), nothing. It's as if they did not exist. I guess that any material they brought in wasn't exactly in perfect condition, or someone forgot to plug it into some pine trees.

    I tried several Linux LiveCD as well, they all recognize the material to varying degrees (being the most comprehensive Debian), but no recognize the USB 3.0 port or the webcam as well.

    Not an OS problem. Call them once again, waiting for a response from a representative Monday morning. Seriously considering to move directly to a repair center and asking the complaints book. There is no guarantee that this laptop won't break again.

    Not a happy camper.

  • My "Fn" (function) of Inspiron 1501 key works in reverse

    My "Fn" (function) of Inspiron 1501 key works in reverse

    Try to press on the windows and the X set button. Opens the Windows Mobility Center. It should be an option to swich the Fn function key. If it does not, then there should be an option in the bios.

    You get to the configuration of the bios on most Dells by tapping the F2 key immediately after the power when the Dell logo appears. Look at the top left, you should see a message about to enter in the configuration. I think be F2 on its own. No Fn + F2. Stop typing when you see the message.

    Maybe in the Configuration system > function key behaviours. Something like that.

    Once you have changed your behavior, you will need to save and exit.

  • Tecra R840 WLAN sporadically not have access to internet or router

    Hello

    A few days ago I baught a Tecra R840. Everything works fine but the WLAN adapter. Basically, Internet works, but sporadically - especcially during downloading files - the wlan adapter loses the connection to internet/router.

    It is always connected to the router at full speed, but it says 'limited access' and the download is interrupted. I then manually disconnect the network and then reconnect, it sometimes takes 2 or 3 tries. But it still works for a few minutes.

    You have an idea, what can be the reason for this problem?

    Hello

    There are some things that should be considered;
    -Update the WLan driver
    -Deactivation of energy saving for the WLan

    Did you check both?
    If this isn't the case, please update the WLan driver.
    In addition go to Win 7 power management and disable the WLan to save energy.
    In many cases, this affects the Wlan functionality.

    If your router has been set to 802. 11 G, then you must choose this also on your laptop. Reach:
    Panel-> card Wlan-> properties-> Advanced tab
    Here you will find a few different options that can improve performance. I m not very well what settings you have for each wireless network card supports different options.

  • I want to record with < alt > < s > in the Exact program online. This function does not work. This is the first time I use this program with firefox.

    Question
    I want to record with < alt > < s > in the Exact program online. This function does not work. This is the first time I use this program with firefox.

    edit, escaped mod < s > in order to avoid the line through question

    A web page can be defined a "accesskey" for an item. Unlike IE/Chrome/Safari, who use the Alt key only, Firefox requires pressing Alt and Shift to activate the element. In other words, try

    ALT + SHIFT + S

    and see if it works.

    I don't know of any way to change this so that the change is not necessary. There may be an add-on?

    Hello

    Never solved this problem, I have the same problem with my Tecra R840. I have windows 10 initial installation when it was first released, however had the freezing issue (System fan would also begin running at 100%, that is very strong but whole machine was locked and would require a hard reset). After a few weeks of this question, that I started Windows 7 and which would be fine.

    However, just tonight I thought I would try the anniversary 10 Windows Update to see if that had solved the problem, unfortunately the same problem persists. After you have installed update Windows 10 anniversary (updated to Windows 7), the laptop freezes still. There a simple 3 minutes after connecting the fan turns 100%, and everything froze upwards.

    Thoughts/ideas or help here would be appreciated?

    See you soon

  • Tecra R840 - Ethernet and driver sound Dynadock question

    Hey,.

    Tecra R840, model PT429A-007004, does not work with the Toshiba dyna docking station.

    Specifically, the Ethernet and the audio driver for the dock dyna is not installed after running or installing the driver on the cd of the dock dyna or the latest driver on the site.

    Does anyone know a fix for this?

    Note: nothing in Device Manager to say that these pilots to dock a missing, only when you install the driver mentioned the wizard that Ethernet and audio drivers might not be installed.

    He also mentions that the dynadock has a problem with the graphics card edge, but we have not had problems with graphics, for example screens.

  • Tecra R840-109 - alert HDD - unable to get disk information

    I turned on my Toshiba Tecra R840-109 and everything looks that the factory settings have been restored, but I still have my files on the hard disk in the users folder (where the system has also built a temporary user I'm connected now, I guess).

    At the opening, the computer asked me to do the things you do when you get a new computer (for example accept the license, install browsers, register fingerprints, if applicable etc.). In addition, it showed an error, alert HDD/SDD saying "Could not get the information from the disk, cannot use the alert function".

    Is there a way to solve this problem, that is, to apply the previous (original) user?

    An obvious solution would probably be to restore the system, but I don't have a backup set to the top (which I will fix as soon as this problem will be solved). Tried to reboot, nothing has changed.

    Hello

    To be honest situation described sounds pretty confusing and not logical for me.
    If you do not have recovery (DVD or USB) media create using preinstalled Toshiba recovery media creator tool.
    After this use this bootable media and reinstalling the recovery image so you will have 'presets' again. After the installation of clean operating system, it is not possible to have the old data stored on the HARD drive, not on the C partition.
    The fact is that before the installation of recovery begins any HARD drive will be deleted and formatted.

    Sorry if I got you. If you have any concrete and clear questions do not hesitate to ask.

  • Tecra R840 - atikmpag.sys causes bluescreen

    Hello

    displaying videos on my Tecra R840 sometimes I get a blue screen with the atikmpag.sys driver.

    Happens to every time, but often - about one in four times or more.

    The blue screen occurs especially at the beginning of the video - but sometimes also in the end.

    In the download for my Tecra area, there is only one pilot display of 2012 - I have installed.

    I have Windows 7 64 bit, 8 GB of RAM and the AMD Radeon HD 6450 M.

    Does anyone have a tip for me?

    Thank you very much in advance

    Hello

    Because this problem does not always, but sometimes, it would be very difficult to reproduce this BSOD and therefore, it is not very easy to say why the BSOD appears.

    Is that file atikmpag.sys belongs to the graphics card driver.
    It seems that the graphics card driver crashes, and therefore the BSOD occurs.
    But why?

    I have two different theories:
    (1) the graphics driver is not fully compatible with the new software installed, tools (games), etc., but the fact is that the Toshiba driver page does not provide all new GPU drivers for this model of laptop. The other point is that the same driver version worked correctly in the past and I m wondering why the same driver should not operate correctly now if it worked correctly in the past.

    (2) my 2nd theory is that the BSOD appears due to the higher temperature of the internal GPU. The highest temperature is mainly a reason for blockages of the system and also responsible for issues of the graphics card.

    Have you tried to reinstall/recover the system? Isn't it?
    I would recommend you do this using the Toshiba recovery disc. This procedure should always be made in the event of system problems.

    I also recommend you to clean the modules of cooling using a jet of compressed air. That would help you get rid of the dust. Dust is mainly a reason if it comes to a temperature higher inside the laptop.
