Satellite 2100CDS: external keyboard

I am trying to use an external mouse and keyboard via a coupling in Y and external mouse/keyboard decision.

Although the lights come on my keyboard when I boot, nothing happens when I press the keys. The external mouse works.

Should I disable the first integrated keyboard? If so, how? If this is not the case, what should I do?

I'd appreciate any help - I'm not very techie.

Hello

You can connect a mouse or keyboard and not both to the PS/2 port.

Your computer also has a USB port and you can connect by using this instead.

Kind regards

Nick

  • Z830 - pad digital satellite on the external keyboard does not work

    Hello

    I tried to get an external keyboard (USB) to work with my Z830 running Win 7 (64-bit). I've tried three different keyboards to USB in ports and also a wireless keyboard.

    The keyboard works fine, but I can't the numeric keypad right of the keyboard to work.
    It allows me to move the screen IE when the NUMLOCK is turned off but when the NUMLOCK is turned on, it does nothing.

    I looked in the bios and changed the parameters relating to the features of legact and also the numlock option, but to no avail. The numeric keypad on the keyboard worked on other machines.

    Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I'm not quite sure that all this, but my hypothesis is code KBC m is missing in the BIOS.
    Satellite/Portege Z830 keyboard does not support keypad so maybe that's the reason why the numeric keypad on the keyboard can not be activated.

  • Satellite L30-115: does not start when external keyboard and mouse are connected

    My Satellite L30-115 starts when my external keyboard and mouse are connected to PS2 USB adapter.

    Everything is OK, when they are not connected, and they work fine when they are connected after boot.

    Someone has any idea how to solve this problem?

    Hello

    I don't think there is a way to solve this problem. Also, I assume it is the related issue of the BIOS. Is perhaps the time to be up-to-date and use new and compatible equipment. ;)

  • Satellite L670-143 - keyboard LAG but work external keyboard

    Hey all, I recently (3 weeks ago orsomething) bought a new laptop, a Toshiba Satellite l670-143.
    Windows 7 64 bit
    IntelĀ® Core i5 - 430 M processor
    : 2.26 / 2.53 turbo GHz

    But this last week ive been keyboard problems. The problem is not always present, but when his present is not weather im play, surf the internet or write an important document.
    I'm not sure at 100% what the problem is, I spent hours trying to understand and to remedy, but nothing seems to help. But when I press a P, I sometimes PPPs. Or when I press a P, it does not appear. It is with all keys. And especially when I type fast. Also, when I pressed the back button, it "lags behind (for a fraction of a second)" every 2 seconds orso. When the problem is not present, the BACKSPACE key is smooth.

    I did a lot of virusscans and did all the registercleanups etc. I made sure that the keys filters and sticky keys are disabled. I checked all drivers updates. When I tried the fix http://keyliner.blogspot.com/2009/11/windows-7-slow-keyboard-response.html nr.1, he disappeared when I rebooted. but the next day, the problem came back and when I redid it, (does what it says + delete the file and recreate) it does not solve the problem. Maybe it was just random chance, I don't know. I turned off the laptop battery to see if she was getting better, he has not.
    I'm not sure of what other ive also tried...

    When I plug my usb keyboard (I write about this now) is not a problem either.

    Ive also browsed this forum,'m (happy in fact) to see that others have the problem as well, but I'm still looking for a solution that works for me
    . It would be simply amazing that I could get rid of this, its incredibly frustrating :(

    Thanks for your time.

    -To show wht TI locomotives as when I type wth myyy built-in keyboard, herr's-

    Hello

    To be honest, if an external keyboard is working correctly I think that it s a hardware malfunction and keyboard connected internally. I doubt it of a virus or something else because the same mistake happen on an external keyboard as well.

    In addition to the keyboard there is no special driver, it of a part of Windows so that you can t update the keyboard driver.

    Now in your case I would take with the closest authorized service provider contact. Your laptop is only 3 weeks so it s under warranty. If you communicate with ASP, they can view the workbook, and if you need a new keyboard, the repair is free. :)

    It is difficult to say why this happens, but in your case I would like to connect an external keyboard and check this. You may notice the same behavior?

  • Satellite Pro C50 keyboard problems - A - 1 L 6

    Hello

    I just bought this new Satellite Pro.

    I have installed all the drivers and updated the bios to the latest version, but I still have the same problem: when I write, many times my keyboard writes double letters (for example, all ten words written keyboard a letter double, as "keybboard").

    I tried also to change the properties of the keypad on the control panel of Windows 8, but nothing has changed.

    I called support, but they just told me that I have to bring my laptop in a helpdesk: but I need my new computer to work, and I wouldn't be happy to lose at least 4 weeks!

    And, support told me that, if the laptop has no hardware problem, I would have to pay for assistance...
    .
    So, this is my first experience and unlucy in the world of Toshiba...
    Is there someone who can give me some advice to solve this problem?
    It may be a problem running on the new laptops, and someone knows how to fix this?

    Thank you very much!

    Hi guys,.

    As far as I know that these similar keyboard problems in the past could be resolved by the BIOS updated.
    I found the new BIOS for Satellite Pro C50 - A
    http://Support1.toshiba-tro.de/Tedd-files2/0/BIOS-20140912105436.zip
    Worth a try

    Another question: If someone has done to test a USB external keyboard?
    In the case where the external USB keyboard would work correctly, this issue isn't associated with BIOS or keyboard controller but probably his keyboard fault internal.

  • Magic of Apple external keyboard, not ctrl alt del

    Hi all

    I have an old MacBook Pro (2011) and recently I build a small office area at home where I connect my laptop to a bigger screen and use the mouse Magic Mouse from Apple, as well as the new keyboard of magic.

    In OS X, everything works as expected, but when I start Windows using boot camp on the external keyboard does not work properly.

    It does not change the BACKSPACE to a delete key once you press fn. That much I'm already sure of since I tried a keycode scanner.

    When I finally go through the logon screen using a work around with the keyboard on the screen, I noticed that none of the special keys like volume up/down or works of brightness - that's all simple F - keys.

    I reinstalled Windows and asked to download the latest drivers for supported boot camp and it's always the same question.

    Someone of you know the same behavior or is there maybe someone here with a solution?

    Thank you

    -Kim

    1. Please check Control Panel-> system-> keyboard to Boot Camp settings.

    2 try using Fn + Ctrl + Alt + Delete on your keyboard Apple when you access Windows.

    3 make sure you have the Apple keyboard driver installed in devices-> HID devices or devices-> keyboard.
