Satellite 5105-S501 keyboard problem

After that I replaced my 40 GB hard drive with a 100 GB hard drive (the old frozen drive), I had a lot of problems with my keyboard.
When I type, I find that the letters 'i' with tab back until a strange moment, the letter 'u' can tab forward, other letters will do other strange things.

I tried to clean under the keys, but that has not worked. It is very frustrating. (While typing this, the cursor is passed to a word in the first sentence, jumped 3 characters to the left, but also jump at the beginning of the line, really weird).

All ideas will be highly appreciated.

Thank you.

Hello

Have you installed the Toshiba Recovery CD?
This problem appears before replacing the HARD drive?
Maybe the new HARD drive with the large size has a bad influence on the keyboard.
I read some messages in the forum, and it seems that sometimes, a new update of the BIOS might resolve these issues.
Please make sure you use the good BIOS and the correct procedure to upgrade the BIOS.

The other possibility is that you did something wrong when replacing the HARD drive.

    Hello

    Satellite 5105-S501 is a laptop computer to the United States.
    That's why you need to search for drivers on the Toshiba page we:
    http://www.CSD.Toshiba.com/cgi-bin/TAIS/support/JSP/home.jsp?NAV=download

    On this page you can find the drivers for American books. Satellite 5105-S501 is an oldie and why you must choose the option Show all to display all models of laptops.

    Regarding the broken buttons:
    As far as I know it s not possible to buy only a single button. In most cases, you will need to replace the entire keyboard.
    But for more details, you should certainly ask the Toshiba ASP in your country.

    See you soon

  • Satellite 5105-S501 - Bad checksum (rom)

    Hi I have a Satellite 5105-S501.

    When I start it say bad checksum (rom), press F1 to the default settings.

    After I press F1 it says I have to insert systemdisc and press a key.

    What is a systemdisc?

    Can someone please help me solve this problem or I have to hand it get fixed?

    Sincerely

    Peter Hammarstrm

    "Checksum error/omission" may appear for different reasons.

    A question:
    You access the BIOS after pressing F1?

    Generally, this error appears if the CMOS battery is empty. In this case, you must connect to the AC adapter to the laptop and should leave it for about 20 to 48 hours connected to AC power.
    Then try again to access the BIOS and set the defaults.

    Hello

    I just bought this computer.

    I don't know if the 5105 s501 is the L series - I can't find any information anywhere, maybe someone could push me in the right direction.

    I can't get the wireless to work. I can connect to the internet via a cable, but nowhere in the control panel etc it says anything wireless. FN + f8 does nothing. The intel driver in Device Manager should say something wireless? There is a red light flashing when the wireless is turned on.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    You have of old Satellite 5105-s501.

    All you need to know about your old laptop you can find on Toshiba support page > HERE.

    Was at first open the Device Manager and check under network adapters if the wireless network card is installed correctly.

  • 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!

    I have big problems with my 5105-S501

    Put a XP pro cd in the drive and tried to install that one. I have to choose to delete the current partition to format the HD, then I got the message "system unable to perform the operation requested on the selected partition.

    The CD of Builder/Restore Configuration looks for a specific string of the DMI
    who identifies the model of the computer you are using and compare it
    information on the CD. If these two do not match error
    'machine wrongly' occurs. Your authorized Service provider can Toshiba

    Hello

    I have a keyboard with Satellite P200, series PSPB6E problem.

    Keyboard seems to generate Press Page Down constantly, although nothing has been paid to this subject.
    It is even difficult to turn on laptop, because it produced consecutive beeps and prevents the computer from starting.

    Sometimes some keyboard characters do not work, and in the second time it works. Sometimes same PgDown works as expected.
    Ĺ’uvres for additional keyboard, but it also receives PgDown keyboard of the laptop.

    Now, I can't insert any sentence in this post, because PgDown will move the cursor down.
    Laptop is under warranty. Should I enable it?

    I note that no. LIQUID is poured on the keyboard.

    On the keyboard of the computer laptop not work keys A, B, N, LEFT SHIFT, INPUT, same brief moments where PgDown keys not dumping. Sometimes even these key works!

  • On Satellite A505-S6973 keyboard problems

    Goodday once again everyone,

    Can someone tell me if the built-in on my Satellite A505-S6973 keyboard has a backlight.
    I watch a lot of these new laptops and similar to mine, under the keyboard it is white and I don't know if that's how it's supposed to light. If so, can someone tell me.

    On the Toshiba U.S. support page I checked the specification for laptop computer and, of course, your laptop doesn t have this backlit keyboard.
    Just FYI: all illuminated keyboard have FN + Z option to turn on/off illumination.
    With other words symbol small keyboard will be on the Z key.

    This option, when the backlit keyboard is in the book is also available in Toshiba HWSetup tool.

    Are you abele to use the USB mouse or the touchpad?

    If Yes, then you should be able get the system back to point in time at the beginning.

    Restart the computer, go to the area of backup and system restore, then select the save point that has been created in the past.

    This restores the system and fix the registry.

    I think the keyboard should work after this procedure.

  • Satellite L855 - 12N - keyboard problem after upgrade to Windows 10

    Greetings friends,
    the problem goes like this: I have a TOSHIBA satellite, L855-12N, Series notebook.

    After updrading to win 10, some of my keys (a, n, enter) did not work initially.
    If I wait for awhile, they start work later.
    I find that I continue to press a button, (for example the button "a") for a long time, I see that he started to answer, then stop again and then answer - stop, until finally it works OK.
    I tried to update the drivers, uninstall and then reinstall, but it doesn't seem to work.
    Anyone know what's going on, or have any suggestions?
    Thank you.

    You are 100% it's a matter of Windows 10?
    Looks more like a hardware problem, keyboard should replace.

    Go into the BIOS and test the keyboard in there.
    If it goes into the BIOS and then replace the keyboard.

    If it's a software problem, try uninstalling the driver for the touchpad Control Panel, then reinstall it via Windows Update.

  • Re: Satellite A300D - strange keyboard problem

    Hello!

    I have a problem with my Satellite A300D: when I press on 'y' or '5', I get a "y5" and when I press "n" or "b", I get a "nb".
    If I hold down y or 5, it seems y5yyy... and with n and b I get nbnnn...

    What you think could be the problem? Keyboard? Or some other hardware controller?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    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?

    If not, I think the case is clear: your keyboard internal doesn t work properly and you need a new. Therefore, you can contact a service provider authorized in your country.

    By the way: have you checked the keyboard input language?

  • Satellite Pro C660 - keyboard problems

    This issue is one for computer laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro C660-1UX running Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1.

    Some of the keys on Board (E, T, U, I, O, A, B, N, and the Enter key) fail to register.
    All keys tested so far seem to register normally.

    When you connect an external USB keyboard, all the keys work properly. When you use the integrated keyboard or external USB keyboard, however, pressed some key is selected for about 2-3 seconds so that his character register. This makes typing incredibly slow and is naturally unacceptable.

    I checked the Manager of devices looking for errors, but can't find one. The keyboard driver is classified properly installed and functional, and driver update indicates that the latest version is in already in service.

    I've also scanned for viruses using Spybot and Malware bytes and also with laptops own antivirus software pre-installed. All the analyses of the entire system refer a none found the message of threat.

    I read that the keyboards on these machines can sometimes be problematic, which could respond only to edge, some function keys. The fact that all the external USB keyboard keys work seems to confirm this. However, the fact that the keyboard both onboard and external is affected by the same slow pressure might also suggest a bios problem - but that this laptop computer is several years old and working perfectly, why bios suddenly would cause this problem.

    I visited the Toshiba site and based on this laptop with the part number: PSC0ME-02100SEN, I have concluded (rightly or wrongly) that the correct bios download version is 1, 70 - WIN, only when I read the following installation instructions http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9502M10000R01.htm bios
    I became quite concerned, like installing the bios update seems far from simple.

    Does anyone know if it is possible to download and install the bios right through an update automated versus manual download and installation step by step, which, if not carried out as planned, could make the laptop completely unusable.

    Has anyone reading this post experienced similar problems with this make and model laptop and was able to return successfully to the good operating condition. If so, how?

    All constructive advice would be welcome.

    > When you connect an external USB keyboard, all keys work correctly.

    This means that the keyboard controller is OK and the internal keyboard is defective.
    To resolve this problem of keyboard, internal keyboard needs to be replaced.

    > However, the fact that the keyboard on board as external is affected by the same keypress slow could also suggest a bios problem - but this laptop computer is several years old and works perfectly, why bios suddenly would cause this problem.

    Hmm I n t think so
    The keyboard delay can be bound to parameters.
    You can check this in the control panel-> keyboard
