  • Materials for the trackpad buttons X131e has stopped working (disabled)?

    Used the computer very well this morning, using the trackpad to move the mouse and the material on it button, make a left click or right-click as usual. When I used the computer later the hardware buttons no longer work. I can click by pressing the lower part of the trackpad itself, but may not use the hardware buttons (and therefore no right-click or the functionality of the middle button).

    This sounds like a hardware failure or a combination of the key / button may have turned off them? I then fiddled about in the UltraNav the mouse settings tab in Control Panel without result. Indeed, the option to activate the TrackPoint (the red button between keys B, G & H) has been disabled... I can't select to activate it). Maybe some drivers have corrupted?

    Any suggestions?

    Update. I just reinstalled the NavPad drivers and the buttons/TrackPoint are still working. Normal service is resumed. God only knows how the pilots got curreupted, but happy, it is not a hardware failure.

  • Whenever I try to update, I get the message "windows Explorer has stopped working". It then seeks a solution, restarts, and immediately stops again. No error code just a constant circle. This has happened for days. I am running windows 7.

    Whenever I try to update, I get the message "windows Explorer has stopped working".  It then seeks a solution, restarts, and immediately stops again. No error, just a constant circle of shutdown and startup code.  This has happened for days.  I am running windows 7.

    I think that norton or mcafee may have been preinstalled as trial versions, but I've never actually used them. Unfortunately I can't use the windows Explorer, so I can't check if they are still there.

    We will cover all the possibilities.

    1. download each of the tools for deletion below, save it to your desktop:

    Norton Removal Tool: ftp://ftp.symantec.com/public/english_us_canada/removal_tools/Norton_Removal_Tool.exe

    McAfee removal tool: http://download.mcafee.com/products/licensed/cust_support_patches/MCPR.exe

    2. close all open applications (that is, anything with an icon on the taskbar).

    3. After completing some you have a copy of your handy product key, uninstall all software (including LiveUpdate and Add-ons of Norton) Norton through Control Panel | Programs | Uninstall a program (or Control Panel |) Programs and features, if you are using the classic view)

    IMPORTANT! => Activate the Windows Firewall immediately after the restart.

    IMPORTANT! => Now you're "working without a net": no to ANYTHING else online (e.g., navigation, reading e-mail, chat) until you have completed the steps #4, #5 and #6 below!

    4. right click on one of the files that you saved in #1 above and select run as administrator to run the utility. DO TAP not your keyboard until the race ends, then restart.

    5. Repeat step #4 for another removal tool.

    Tips:

    -Online use another computer to download the removal tool, if necessary, then transfer it to the computer via CD, DVD, or a USB brand new, never been used (flash drive), or a summer freshly updated in shape.

    -Online start the problem in Mode safe computer, if necessary, proceed as above.

    -Online after completing all of the above, uninstall AVG Free & reboot. Now do a new installation of AVG Free 9.0, this time select the CUSTOM installation option and do NOT install (uncheck) Linkscanner Search-Shield, Active Surf-Shield, security or the email of crawl components toolbar.

    Hi Andy,.

    I checked the reported compatibility list, and the game is listed as compatible.  Work in 64-bit or 32-bit Windows 7?  I will try to reinstall the game, if you did an upgrade from Vista to Windows 7 recently.  If it is a new installation and does not, please visit the EA's Web site to get the latest patch for the game to see if that helps address your problem.  Let me know if you've done all that and you still have questions, and we can try something else.

My Toshiba Service Station does not work and tried to contact Toshiba as well, but yet they want the money for technical advice. I know that somebody here is tech savey and I am disabled and do not have the money to repair this laptop so please can someone there give me info on how to get back to his old self of my machine? Oh and btw, I did a system restore, but this message from Catalyst Control Center is yet to come. PLEASE HELP ME AND THANK YOU VERY MUCH!

    "I went on this site called Driver Whiz and he says I'm wrong 8 things with my computer.
    Don't believe one thing, or say similar sites. They are only after your money.
    To top it off they often install software that can be difficult to uninstall, and if
    you don't uninstall it you get messages.
    It seems that there are a lot of discussions about uninstalling the program driver Wiz, but I
    guess the best place to start is to their own site-

    http://driverwhiz.com/support/uninstall
    If that won't uninstall not indeed their software, then you may need to do more
    read other threads.

    I hope that you do not say that you stop the machine while the updates were

    updates, particularly of driver updates.
    In regard to it and the fake driver software installed. If you started having problems after that Windows updates don't you have a restore point from the system that dates back to before that you did? If so do the system restore and then move on the updates again. Restoration can even delete 'wiz pilot' with a bit of luck.

    Now - 'Catalyst Control Center host has stopped working"I suppose you were
    get this error before the debacle "Pilot Wiz"?
    I uninstall the drivers ATI and the CCC software via programs and features and then go to the download page of Toshiba for new drivers. It can be pilots became corrupt, but the "updater" does not know this. It checks only to a version of file.
    Personally, I do not use updates of autopilots. Best to download the installer and install manually, if Toishiba have this option.
