Satellite A110-149: keyboard sometimes password AZERTY to QWERTY

HELLO and sorry for my poor English (I am French and novice in English)

I have a problem with my laptop: Satellite A110-149, running Windows XP, bought in January 2007.
Sometimes, for some unknown reason, my keyboard (AZERTY) changes to QWERTY, no matter what program I use.

I updated the drivers in the Control Panel, but nothing changes.

That please? How could I fix it?

Thank you.

I have only one explanation.
You have configured the keyboard with two different languages.
By pressing SHIFT + ALT the OS changes the language of the page layout and button assignment.

Maybe during the quick typo you have accidentally enabled this combination of keys and the keyboard power

  • Driver DVD-RAM on Satellite A110-149 problem

    I recently received my copy of Express Upgrade to Windows Vista and I installed it as described in the user guide.

    The first time Windows Vista ran normally and I had no problem with my DVD-RAM. But then, after having upgraded from windows it asked me to reboot. When I rebooted my computer Windows Vista does not recognize the DVD-RAM driver.

    I searched the Web from Toshiba site, this driver but I couldn't find it. I just find drivers Windows XP, which could not be installed.

    Do you have anyone had the same problem, or knows where I can get this driver?

    My laptop is a Satellite A110 - 149 (PSAB6E) and the DVD-RAM is a CARPET * a DVD-RAM UJ - 841S

    Hello

    usually, a DVD-RAM needs no driver, it must be recognized automatically. Have you ever tried to remove the drive in system properties and restart the system?

    Windows should install correctly after that. If this isn't the case, please make a comment.

  • Satellite A110-149: the battery is empty after about an hour

    Hello
    I bought a satellite A110-149, but I'm worried for the battery as in only 1 hour or a little more, it is already empty. Is this normal?

    If I let my laptop connected to an outlet throughout the day, this can make my battery less efficient?

    Thank you!

    Hello

    Laptop battery of specification of the run time is until 1:45. But I think it is quite unrealistic. Battery life depends on many factors like the profile selected in the intelligence tool, run the applications and processes and perhaps the use of the optical disk drive.

    At the end I can tell you that there is no problem and this time rung is normal for this laptop and battery 4 cells.

  • Satellite A110 - the keyboard is locked and light slot touch F11

    Keyboard A110 from my friend was being blocked. He said that there is a light below the F11 key. No keys do not work.

    Please help someone...

    Hello!

    The light under the F11 key normally means that the keypad is on. You can enable/disable this function if you press FN + F11.
    Did you check that?

    In addition, it would be interesting to know if you can access the BIOS with the keyboard or the fact that this problem only occurs in Windows mode.

    Good bye

  • Satellite A110 battery does not & will not work if the battery is connected

    Hello

    I will try to regain control of the situation quite clearly.

    Product: Toshiba Satellite A110-149

    Works fine on AC adapter / CC (Eve just a summary of the problem but because of Gentoo Linux, this used to work under Windows XP)

    Original battery was dead. Not only there is no charge, but with this battery and the AC adapter absolutely nothing, not a single LED. No need to mention that I couldn't turn on the computer.

    Bought a new battery at Eforcity.com
    -Replace: PA3465U-1BRS | 10.8V | 6600mAh (71Wh)

    With this new battery and the AC adapter plugged in, I have the green power led and lighted orange recharge. But even after 8 hours and the computer off of the battery did not charge.
    If I try to turn on the computer with this new battery in and the AC adapter is plugged in it starts to run, but after awhile it stops automatically, no question weather I start or enter the BIOS.

    BIOS is Phoenix v1.50 and reset the default settings.
    Also, downloaded the last OS independent 1.70 - WIN (bios - 20090121162419.zip), but is there a way to update without Windows?

    I tried to just unplugged and press the power button several times (last test, I continued pressing more than 2 minutes for what counts)

    I have clean the contacts with alcohol.

    Would it be because of a fuse or capacitor I could replace myself or something?

    Any help would be grateful.

    Kind regards
    Charly

    Hello

    I'm not quite sure what happened to the laptop, but first of all you need to know that laptop m should feed and must run properly if the AC adapter is plugged.
    The isn t battery required to power the unit if the power adapter provides power for the laptop.

    So if ONLY the battery would be affected, the unit must always turn sector.

    This is why I think that its a serious hardware issue for example motherboard problem.

  • Satellite A110: keyboard, touchpad, power problems

    I have a Toshiba Satellite A110, purchased a few months before. In recent weeks, it started randomly locking the keyboard and the touchpad (with or without external mouse plugged - although an external mouse still works).

    Now there is power to the top of the issues, with the suspended system Bios Toshiba screen, can fully initialize maybe once in five.
    Acquisition of wireless network is also very temperamental. I tried this software I can think (new drivers/virus scan/uninstall-reinstall), with the exception of a reinstall full backup disk Toshiba.

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hello

    I think we should first find out if the problem is software or hardware related.
    In this case the installation of the operating system with the Toshiba Recovery CD is recommended.
    After installation, the laptop should work without worries.

    But if the unit will hang and not start properly there could be something wrong with the hardware.
    I think that your warranty is valid and in this case you should always contact the ASP in your county for a check.

  • Satellite A110-179 - BIOS password has been changed - can't access BIOS

    Hi, everyone:

    I have a problem with my toshiba satellite A110-179.
    I'm not exactly how, my computer has set a user password CMOS, which completely avoid me access to the BIOS, or a correct boot system settings.
    So I Don t know to restart the CMOS settings, to remove all configurations, the user password that is included in this.

    I been reading about the process of possible resetting my BIOS of the laptop, so I can't find exactly how do, so everyone know that it is impossible in laptops from Toshiba, reset the default installation settings.

    Is this true?
    Can I do something?

    Please, explain the process. I'm completely hopeless on this issue.
    Excuse my terrible English, it has been forgotten.

    Thank you, for your help.

    Best regards from the Spain.

    Hello

    Is the password of the BIOS cannot be deleted by the user if the user doesn t know this password.
    In this case, the ASP from Toshiba (certified partner) must be contacted in order to remove this password.

    Sorry mate but to my knowledge, there is no other way to remove it
    Therefore, get in touch with your ASP and ask for help!

    Good luck

  • Satellite A110 - BIOS password after update BIOS interruption

    Hello

    I have a Satellite A110, I did a flash update using the Phoenix utility within windows XP. Upgrade flash my office, I need to disconnect the battery to be placed to restart the laptop. After that whenever I try to turn on the laptop it ask me a password on the BIOS but I never put a password in the BIOS.

    How can I please?

    See you soon,.

    David

    Hello David

    I believe that no one here can say with certainty what was happen exactly after the update of the BIOS. The fact is that the BIOS password can be removed by service provider only. Contact the nearest service provider and explain the situation.

    I'm sure they can know what was happen exactly and help you remove the BIOS password.

    Hello

    You must press the button on / off LED, which is part of the multimedia buttons of Toshiba. This button must be placed in the line where the other buttons such as play, pause, volume up and down are placed.

    So the light must be turned on. Then, you can set the backlight on the keyboard to Auto.
    Then the keyboard would hit any key.
    When you use FN + (keyboard sign (Z)), keyboard backlight turns off / Alternatively

    Hello

    I think the keyboard could be compatible, but I doubt the battery designed for Sat A110 would be compatible with the model A100.

    As far as I know the Satellite A100 supports the 9 cell, 6000mAh
    PA3478U-1BRS or 12 PA3400U-1BRS battery and the A110 supports PA3457U-1BRS Battery Pack Li-ion (4300mAh, 8 cells)
