• Replacement keyboard for Portege A600-120

  Hello
  can someone tell me what the size of the connector must be on the Portege A600-120 keyboard?

  My keyboard failed last week and I ordered a new one that was supposed to be compatible with A600 but the connector was too broad.

  Mine is a thin flat 15mm wide ribbon.

  Keyboard serial number is G8C000903EN, but a Google serach watch is the keyboard for the R500...

  Thank you

  Hello

  As far as I know the keyboard cable is connected to the CN3230 on the motherboard.
  The CN3230 is a dish * 30pin * I / F connector

• Portege Z930: Loss of Fn keys after upgrade to win 8 - can't turn WiFi switch

  After several months waiting for my hour I just began my Portege Z930 - 11G for Windows 8 Pro upgrade.

  To a large extent, it went to the plan except that, after execution to display the Assistant Toshiba Upgrade I lost the Fn key and about half of the keys no longer seem to work at all.

  The only key I've ever used on a routine basis is the Fn + F8 option to activate the power switch WiFi.

  So now, I can not turn on WiFi on the computer.

  It must, surely, that there be a way to do it, but I'm not. Does anyone have a suggestion? I'm OK for now because I have a local cable system in the House, but once I get out on the road I will fight without WiFi.

  Before running the wizard upgrade of the Fn key grew up the key appear in the upper part of the screen and I want to surely I had turned on WiFi right here.

  The Fn key utility offers very little control of the Fn keys. It does not offer the possibility to do anything else than to disable five notifications screen for keyboard backlighting, power plan, touch pad and cursor overlay digital overlay.

  Any help gratefully received.

  > So now I can not turn on WiFi on the computer.
  First of all, you can enable and disable the WiFi using the function key, but you can also activate the WLan settings of Windows 8
  Key Win + C-> settings-> change PC settings-> wireless

  Now, you can use the cursor to wireless devices to enable or disable the WiFi network.

  But to get the FN button work you need to install the + Toshiba function key + Utility for win 8 and + Toshiba system driver + to win 8

• Portege Z930 - FN keys issue - showing no no menu on screen

  Hello

  I have toshiba portege Z930 and my function keys worked until I installed YAC (yet another cleanser) to get rid of some malware, which worked, but the problem is that even after uninstalation, function keys is broken:

  FN + y/z which should highlith the keyboard does not work (I have installed what is called the "function key" for now, that works as well with the FN 1, 3 FN, FN 4 and 3 + 4 to volume)

  but others simply does not work:
  FN + ESC (mute)
  FN + F2 (eco mode)
  FN + F5 (control switch)
  FN + F8 (wifi/bluetooth switch
  FN + F9 - 12

  Could someone point me to good drivers for this? Thank you very much
  Karolina

  What Windows system is installed?
  In the case of Windows 7, you need to install Toshiba Value added Package
  In the case of 8.1 to win, you need to install the Toshiba system parameters.

  But be careful: some FN key features depends on the 3rd software. For example, you will not be able to use the FN + F2 if eco mode ECO Utility isn't installed.

  But why n t give you the OS at the beginning point of time until you have used the cleaning tool?

• Portege Z930 - BSOD kernel data by page fault

  Recently (3 days ago) my girlfriend bought Portege Z930, and she becomes BSOD kernel data in error page, randomly (battery or AC).

  Hardware config is: Core i3 Mobile i3-3217U, DDR3 4 GB, HD Graphics 4000, SSD 128 GB
  Software: it didn't install new programs, using the trial version of office, Google chrome and windows 7 64 bit which was pre-installed. Anyone have any idea, what could be the cause of bsod? Preinstalled software from Toshiba? Hardware malfunction?

  Also because off-topic information autonomy point is up to 5 hours (wifi on, light off, bright screen keyboard: 40%)

  On this virtual path, it is not easy to say what may be the problem. In my opinion, you should make data backup and install the OS by using HARD drive recovery option.

  After that do what you will have new own preinstalled OS. Test a few days without having to install anything just to see if the error appears again.

  Installation of HARD drive recovery operation, you can read on http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD1303440001R01.htm

• Re: Sore eyes using Portege Z930 screen

  Hi all

  After appr. 30 min of work with my Portege Z930 I get the pain in my eyes and, later, headache.
  I can't just work properly with him.

  I tried all known by me options to configure the graphic display, Intel utilities and a Windows, change text size and so on, but to no avail.
  Text is a little fuzzy looking.

  I'm 12 years old laptop user, changed a lot of it and it's my first laptop with such a poor quality screen.
  Or is it a default and I should ask replace the matrix?

  Appreciate all the advice of many,
  Sergey

  Hello

  The device supports a common 13.3 "(HD) TFT color LCD."
  The max resolution is 1366 x 768.

  So I can't find big differences between this screen and others, used in other books

  Of course 13.3 is not really a big screen I prefer notebook with a screen size of 15-17.
  The 13.3 is too small for me

  I don't know... maybe there is something wrong with the LCD display... then maybe you should ask a service provider to verify the part... but this is just my personal opinion...

• Portege Z930 - display became very low

  I have a Portege Z930 ultrabook. A day or two back the display suddenly be permanently turned off. However, if I look closely, I see that the image is there but VERY, VERY weakly. It is as if the light has been turned off (although since the screen is DIRECTED which is not the case).

  I was able to get a replacement screen, but that made no difference.

  The video card on the motherboard works - at least insofar as I can plug in an external monitor and see everything correctly.

  I wonder if a hardware switch inadvertently triggered and miss me the framework. Or I suppose it could be a witch that turns off the screen when the cover is closed, which became faulty...

  The Z930 has fonctionnee Windows 8.1 very happily for the last year or two.

  I hope that it will be something simple, rather than a motherboard failure...

  Thanks in advance for any ideas.

  Andrew

  In my opinion, this is material nuisance and has nothing to do with the settings.
  In the past we have had several discussions with the same or similar problems and described problem was related to the defective FL inverter.

  Have you ever talked with Toshiba service?

• What is the number of keyboard for Portege Z30-A-1E5 part?

  Hello
  I want the Toshiba Portege Z30 A 1E5, but is apparently available for purchase of the German and Austrian sellers with the QWERTZ keyboard. I would like to buy an and Exchange on the keyboard AZERTY or QWERTY (UK).

  However, I spoke with a company that and they can't confirm that they can get a part unless I can provide a reference number of keyboard (they also cannot give me a quote without it), but this number does not seem to be easy to get their hands on without actually having the computer and take off the keyboard and research under! I feel a little nervous about spending so much money when there's a chance that I won't be able to reverse the keyboard.

  So my question is, can someone tell me what the part number of the keyboard is for the a-z30-1e5 portege?

  Any help would be appreciated!

  Kate

  Hi, Kate

  I m wondering why you want to buy a Portege Z30-A-1E5 that isn't available in the United Kingdom?
  The notebooks are pre-installed with a Windows system in different languages. In the case of Portege Z30-A-1E5 available in Germany, the system language would be German.
  The keyboard also supports a different layout.

  Portege Z30-A-1E5 was equipped with a processor i7, SSD 512 GB and 16 GB of RAM disk.
  Very similar Portege laptop, Z30 - has - 1 6 was released in the United Kingdom. Its preinstalled with the Windows system in the English language and English keyboard layout.
  Of course, the hardware specs are a little bit lower (256 GB SSD drive and 8 GB of RAM) but I think that this could be improved is much easier to replace the keyboard.

  However, where you can buy the Portege Z30-A-1E5, I recommend contacting the maintainer authorized Toshiba in your country for replacement keyboard. Guys could control the keyboard of Toshiba law and could perform the replacement.

  Just a note: the replacement must be performed by service provider authorized because of the validity of the guarantee. The replacement must be performed by an approved engineer to keep the warranty valid.

• Replacement keyboard for Satellite Pro P100-465

  Hello

  Does anyone know if there is another keyboard that I can get for this model?

  The current keyboard keys a pretty spongy and don't respond well except if pressed hard.
  Also, buttons which I use a lot, such as the right change key and enter key are below standard and difficult to use.

  I want to set up a keyboard layout different if possible. The keypad is not important to me.

  Thank you
  Mike

  Replacement of keyboard should not be a problem. I recommend you contact the partner of service authorized in your country. They should have the numbers for keyboards with a different layout. Using this number, you'll be able to order replacement keyboard.

• Portege Z930 - 12 H - update of the BIOS and McAfee Endpoint Encryption?

  The update to the latest BIOS (Ver.6.70) for my laptop Portege Z930 12 H comes with the warning:

  «If you use the BitLocker Windows Drive encryption, please temporarily suspend (or turn off) before BitLocker Drive Encryption updated BIOS.»

  The same caveat applies to McAfee Endpoint Encryption, which is used on my laptop and I can * not * pause or stop? Or can I apply the upgrade of the BIOS safely?

  Thank you.

  As much I know Bitlocker isn't related to Antivirus from McAfee software and two security tools are not connected to each other. BitLocker is a tool for Microsoft Windows and McAfee is a 3rd party software preinstallation on the device.

  I found a nice how doc on the update of the BIOS.

• Portege Z930-146: BSOD running Win 7 64 bit - support pointers and advice

  Hello

  First post following the latter (academia / business) purchase of a Portege Z930-146 (serial number XC141056H, short PT235E part number).

  Configured the pre-installation software 64 - bit W7, local installed, delivery to the primary user (the boss).

  User reports 3 BSOD in a few days - I have the mini-decharges and made first order analysis using blue-screen display:

  PAGE_FAULT_IN_NON_PAGED_AREA (ntoskrnl.exe)
  SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (dxgkrnl.exe)
  MEMORY_MANAGEMENT (ntoskrnl.exe)

  We really are the guys from UNIX, so it is not familiar territory.

  I just updated the BIOS but now have a long (50 +) list of possible drivers also be updated. One at a time to download and install?

  I ran the diagnostics memory and disk - without errors or warnings that are reported.

  Can someone identify a likely problem, or direct me gently in the direction of the road to official support of Toshiba please or suggest next steps?

  Thank you in advance,

  GLM

  Ntoskrnl.exe is a Microsoft kernel boot and the dxgkrnl.exe seems to have something to do with the chart.

  I recommend to check if the update of the display driver would improve the performance of the system.
  Then visit the Toshiba UE driver page, select the Satellite Z930 PT235E and download the latest display driver Intel.
  Z930-146 was equipped with chip Intel HD Graphics 4000, so you need the Intel driver.

  You can also try to download the driver directly from the Intel page since they always provide the latest version.

• Adding additional partition D for Portege Z930 with that 256SSD

  I just got a new portege Z930 i7 with 256 ssd and Win7 pro 64. It starts with 4 partitions already installed.1.46Gb recovery, 217 GB C, 8 GB hibernation and a 11.9 primary with the only option to remove.

  I can shrink the C drive to 110 GB offering 110 GB unallocated. But if I try to format the unallocated space it tells me that this will change to dynamic disks and there is not enough space.
  I have a D drive for the data. How to do this?

  Hello

  I recommend to use the 3rd party software called * Gparted.*
  It of based on the system Linux and you could create bootable USB flash memory stick containing Gparted tool.

  It is great for partition management.

  Hi all

  I have serious problems with my new laptop Portege Z930-138. I wanted to downgrade from Win8 to Win7 and transferred my old iso of Win7 on a bootable USB.

  I changed the BIOSsetting CMS BIOS in order to boot from USB and it worked.

  You can use an external USB CD/DVD drive to boot from disks to win 8.

  Or you try to install the 8 Win using a flash USB memory sik.
  But in order to install the memory flash USB one Win 8 Win 8 ISO (image) files is necessary.
  In addition, you will need to create a bootable USB. You can do this by using the Windows 7 USB/DVD download tool
