Satellite A105-S4254: several keyboard keys stop working after startup

Hey

I have a laptop A105-S4254, which is less than a year.
When I boot it upward a few minutes most of the keys stopped working.
The F keys will however continue to work.
I can laugh with the brightness and activate / disable the num lock and scroll but I can't type.

A number of key just freeze.
When I reboot the keys work for a few minutes and then stop working again.

Please help me with suggestions and solutions.
Thanx

Hello

For me, it looks like a hardware problem. Maybe it s the keyboard or keyboard controller itself.
But first, you must be sure that this failure was not due to a software problem.
Therefore, it would be desirable to update the system and install the OS from the Toshiba Recovery CD.

If the keyboard problem appears again, I'd recommend contacting the ASP in your country to control the laptop.

It seems that the guarantee could be valid for all replacements must be done for free.

See you soon

    Thank you!

    Hi mor.yg,

    Why you didn t post information about your operating system?

    In any case, I think that the problem is related to the VAP. In your case I remove it, and then restart the laptop. Use CCleaner to clean the registry and windows and restart again. Then install the latest version on the Toshiba site.

    Your laptop is listed on the page of Toshiba Europe, so you should find it here:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    Also check the BIOS. If you can find an option on the lighting, set it to activate it please.

    Hello ExcelsiorPath,

    • Choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, click Accessibility, and then click keyboard. Make sure that slow keys is turned off. If slow keys is enabled, you will need to keep a key longer than usually before it is recognized.

    • Choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, click Accessibility, and then click mouse and Trackpad. Make sure that the mouse keys is turned off. If the mouse keys is enabled, pressing the keys in the numeric keypad moves the pointer instead of entering the numbers.

    • Choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, click keyboard, and then click input methods. Select "Show the menu in the menu bar." Open the menu entry, then make sure that the correct keyboard layout is selected.

  • Satellite A300 - some keys stopped working after downgrde from Vista to XP

    Hello

    Excuse me for my bad English. I have a problem with my Satellite A 300 PSAG4E-0450. Operating system went from Vista to XP. Easy keys, keys shortcut and illumination stopped working. All the drivers have been downloaded. I tried to find it in Control Panel-> Toshiba controls. I changed to bright power, but this isn't work. If I try to turn it off, I see a window with "choose order".

    What can be wrong?
    Thanks for your help.

    Hello!

    As far as I know, the lighting can be disabled and enabled in the BIOS.
    Check it!

    To shortcut keys, you should try to install the Toshiba controls and utilities hotkey.

  • Volume and mute keyboard keys stop working

    Since then, I've noticed as hotkeys that i.e. Fn + F1 - F12 has stopped working.
    Outside the windows updates, I only use and change a lot on the m200 so I am sure this has to do with the Xp updates.

  • Satellite L300D-135 - some keys stop working after a few minutes

    Satellite L300D-135 (PSLC8E-02P013EN) portable model, boot cold keyboard is fine. As things warm up the keys R and there stop responding as do 7890 keys. May be heat related.

    The keyboard has been replaced, old and new are doing the same thing, so it's more like a controller issue. Have flashed the latest BIOS as saw talk of the keyboard problems in one of the versions of the BIOS. The end user has been tolerated for a few months, but now, Dyslexic child needs to use the laptop and cannot deal with dead keys.

    Any ideas? Laptop is 2 weeks out of warranty and user end just asked me to take a peek, problem has been around for the warranty period.

    Phil

    Hi Phil

    Can you notice the question even if you connect an external keyboard or this only happens with an intern?

    I can t imagine it has something to do with the heat, but if you want you can clean your laptop using a jet of compressed air. This could blow out the dust from the cooling fans.

    If this isn't the case, you must replace the entire keyboard. Normally it of not so expensive so Don t you worry not about it. You can also ask your ASP if they can repair as a gesture of goodwill.

  • Satellite L855 and Win8.1 - Touchpad stops working after the login window

    New laptop running windows 8.1 Touchpad works for about 30 seconds after windows starts and then stops. I have tried downloading drivers the most recent of the Toshiba site, but it does not solve the problem. Tried the function keys of the touchpad, but it's not the question. Called Toshiba support and they suggest to send it in for a factory reset.

    I have also a problem with AMD graphics will split after that computer screen goes into sleep state. Downloaded and installed drivers more recent for it on the advice of Tech support, but not fixed, or the other.

    I'm a little worried because a research shows these two problems are not uncommon and IV ' e spent a lot of time to copy data and install the software, don't want to lose him and wasting time waiting for factory reset if I need to return ot.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Factory reset is the best way to solve this problem, but you have upgraded your machine following the instructions step by step http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/generic/windows8_1-message/?

  • < Fn > keys stopped working after XP updates

    I have XP Home Edition sp3. I was invited for 6 updates for XP. After installation and restarting in now my keys on laptop are not working. None of them work. Other combinations of keys are OK. + C, etc are OK. Is there a way to remove the updates that have been installed?

    The laptop manufacturers implement the Fn key by using different techniques.  The first thing to do is to go to the website of the manufacturer of your laptop and download and install the driver of current keyboard for your computer.

    Still problems?  Post back with the brand and model of your computer.

    FYI, you can always go to windows update and click on the link to 'Review your update history'.  You will be able to identify the specific updates that have been installed.  Post their KB numbers here if you do not understand them.

    For diagnostic purposes, you can uninstall more updates by going to control panel > add or remove programs and by checking the box at the top to 'See the updates'.  In general, however, it is not a good idea to leave uninstalled patches 'critical'.
