Satellite A215-S4737: FN + F5 to F9 are not workingk on Windows XP

Hello world.

I got this laptop with Windows Vista installed.
I wanted to move make Windows XP. Before that, I've updated the BIOS to the latest version (1.80). All FN keys worked very well.

After all the drivers Windows XP, incluing quest adventure to install Ati Radeon Xpress X 1200 driver, everything works, with the exception of a few keys on the FN function. F5 to F9 keys do not work.

Here the most annoying, it is the brightness of the LCD screen.
The screen is too bright and even the brightness with Catalyst software, nothing happens...

Help here?

Thank you

Hello

There is an answer simply;
The keys FN don t work because loaded drivers and tools are not installed.

This laptop seems to be designed only for the American market, so the drivers and tools need to be downloaded from the Tosh page we!

http://www.toshibadirect.com/TD/B2C/home.to

If you find not all drivers XP or tools for this device, then either you have to wait until the driver will be released or you use the XP without the additional use of FN keys.

Greetings

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    Usually, if you have a laptop wireless switch should have a wireless LAN card too. In your case I would try to install the driver. Then the WLAn card should appear correctly in Device Manager:

  • Satellite A215-S4747 (internal and external) microphone does not work

    Hello

    I write about my wife by Satellite A215-S4747 running Windows XP.
    A few months ago as the built-in microphone and external microphone has stopped working.

    This made me think it was a driver problem, although no issue in
    Control Panel > sounds and Audio devices > equipment for all drivers.

    I went through the Troubleshooting Wizard, but that did not help.
    I went and downloaded drivers RealTek HD Audio (R2.67), but that didn't fix it.

    Any help is very appreciated.

    Thank you

    I want to emphasize that this machine is about 6 years old, making the possibility of some parts break most likely...

    Hello

    Sound works. Right? Well well, in that case I n t think that it is an audio driver problem.

    First of all, I think you should check some basic settings.
    (1) mic device.
    Go to the control panel-> sounds and Audio-> Audio-> sound recording devices
    Here you check if device right microphone has been selected

    (2) mic volume
    Go to the control panel-> sounds and Audio devices-> Audio-> audio-> Volume
    Here you check if the volume is at max level
    Additional button Advanced should be available at the bottom of the mic volume control click that it and check if the mic push in checked.

    Have you installed some tools or software which may affect (disabled) the microphone?

    Can you please help me with these two questions?

    Hey Buddy,

    I think that in this case, you can't do anything. I mean Windows 7 isn't on the market yet and at the moment there no drivers available. You can only try the Vista drivers because most of them are also work on Windows 7.

    Alternative I founded on the Toshiba page we some drivers beta Windows 7. Maybe they work:

  • Satellite C50-A-1JV - some drivers are not seen by Windows

    Hello!

    Today, I have faced a problem. The thing is that, after reinstaling Win7, it cannot see that the drivers associated with USB2 and 3-ports and card reader. It was installed Win7 32 bit front and everything worked perfectly, but after installing the same version of Windows, the mentioned drivers do not work. What the pilots I install to my laptop Satellite C-50-A-1JV?

    Maybe I don't know what delicate drivers are needed? I tried to implement different versions of them, and no one works.
    Should I just install another version of Windows?

    I checked the Toshiba download page, and as I can see, your laptop model is not supported for Win7 32 bit (screenshot).
    What did you do in the past? Have you used the drivers offered for another laptop model?

    Hi all

    Ive had a problem with my keyboard on the above model. Initially I thought it was just the keyboard, so I bought another one and installed it and it did the same thing.

    Problem:-r button and there does not initially new keyboard works not at all just by typing randomly!

    This could be an internal problem or I just bought a duff keyboard?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Have you tried with an external keyboard?

    To be honest, I think that there is something wrong the keyboard, but you can check with the outside.
    In the worst case the internal keyboard should be exchanged.

  • Satellite A-C70-15F-brightness-Fn key does not work on Windows 7

    Hello

    I installed Windows 7 64 bit Pro on Toshiba C70-A-15F
    I have download all the drivers compatible with W7

    After I check the work of Fn + F2 and Fn + F3 and change the brightness of the screen, but don't see any icon on the screen.
    Ok... I have Toshiba ValuePack install, to solve this little problem... and now I have another problem:

    now the keys function change and for example for that F3 is hanging the PC. and I don't have the function to adjust brightness

    I tried with HWSetup (for older versions of Toshiba) and with special functions Fn (teorically for Windows8).

    Please, my goal is now to return to the first step, I don't see the icon on the screen, but I need the luminosity function.

    How to cancel the installation of the value Pack. I don't see the uninstall program

    Thank you!!

    Hi Dani

    First of all you are on the track of good facility of value-added package.
    This package came out for Win 7 and it contains additional utilities that control different features, like the FN buttons.

    But to control the brightness of the screen with the FN keys, you need to also install display drivers. The C70-A-15F Satellite takes supported two GPUS: internal Intel HD Graphics 4000 (its share of the Intel processor) and him dedicated nVidia GeForce 710 M
    So please make sure that both drivers have been installed.

    You should be able to remove from the Add / Remove Programs (Control Panel control program → & functions)

  • How can I get rid of yahoo and Pogo toolbars. They are not in my Windows XP programs, but they are on my firefox home page and interfere with my use of gmail...

    The two toolbars have uninstall instructions in their help on the toolbars section. I pasted in the section of troubleshooting below. When I try to find these programs in the menu START, in my settings or in the "Add/Remove Program" section of my control panel, they aren't there. The two toolbars have pre-eminence over gmail, which is my favorite of the navigation toolbar, etc. So even if I can do what I do, I have to firstly my way through the face of Pogo page and then the intrusion of louts on the websites to spawn. Why can't I get rid of these two toolbars? I never intentionally asked for them and I still don't know how they were allowed to be there, but it is clear that I must have done.

    Go to: view > toolbars to see if they are there. If they are, you can uncheck the.
