Satellite A30 - CTRL key not working

Sometimes windows think the ctrl key is taped. The only way to compensation, is if I restart the system. It becomes more coherent, more I use the laptop and is a great nuesance

Hello Ewan

There are certain shortcomings. Maybe the contact is really stuck on. You can try to remove the plastic part and clean the contact or communicate with the service partner if there is no success. Be careful because all parts are very sensitive and can damage it.

    Hello

    I think you should visit the Web from Toshiba site and reinstall all the FN keys tools. Therefore, you must download and install Hotkey Utility and Toshiba common Modules, they should be accountable for the function FN key.

  • Satellite A100: FN keys not working not not on Windows XP

    Hi there, Im new to this, so hopefully someone can help.
    Some time ago my hard drive had serious problems and I replaced it.

    But with that I also had Windows XP like some things that I really didn't like about vista.

    Anyway, since then my function keys on the 'F' keys and my media keys on the left side of the laptop are not working, can anyone suggest to me what I can do?

    If it is a driver or something there, and if so, where can I get it?

    Hello

    First of all, you should check your model number of the laptop.
    The European driver Toshiba page provides drivers for five different sets of Satellite A100!
    In order to choose one that fits!

    If you want to use the FN buttons please ensure that your common Toshiba Module driver has been installed! This is important. In addition the Hotkey Utility must be installed as indicated by the above user.

    Toshiba button near the power button are controlled by the Toshiba driver controls!

    I think that these drivers should help you get the laptop works properly.

  • Satellite M30: FN keys not working not not after installing IE7

    I installed IE7 and noticed that the fn keys no longer work. (Satellite M30)
    I don't know if it was the catalyst because I do not know how long the problem has been.

    The only ones I use often are FN + f6 and f7 +.
    I really need to be able to adjust the brightness of the screen. Any help would be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    First lights up the screen can be changed also in the Toshiba Power Saver utility.

    But it s very strange that, after the IE7 update the FN keys stopped working. I installed the IE7 on my laptop, and the FN keys still work very well.

    So maybe it of a simply wrung something in the registry. Who knows?  :|
    I recommend reinstalling the common Modules.

    Maybe it helps!

  • Satellite A30: Drivers does not work

    Please can someone help me. I have a Toshiba Satellite A30 laptop which I can't seem to find the drivers to 'work'. I used the drivers on this website, but surprisingly, the vast majority of them do not install (most of the error messages say that this software is not compatible with your hardware or operating system, some say that the destination name is too long or something like that), and the few that appear to install correctly do nothing once installed. I don't know what to do - I've tried everything... Without a DOUBT, I used the right drivers according to this site (A30, WINDOWS XP drivers)...

    Basically, I'm in this position because I had to format my hard drive, however, I don't have the original recovery CD or utility CD anymore. I have a Windows XP CD I have installed...

    The model number is: PSA33E - 7C3F3 - 6-X

    I bought this used computer, so I don't know where there for country of origin (if that makes a difference) - However, I'm in the United Kingdom, and I bought it in the United Kingdom, so I guess it's a Machine of Spec UK.

    This computer has 512 MB, 30 GB HD, 2.8 Ghz Pentium 4, ATI Radeon Mobility 9000, 15,1 "TFT... I hope this helps...

    Please answer as soon as possible.

    Hello

    I can t he understand. I tried to download the drivers from this page and it works correctly. Believe me, these are the correct drivers for this device.
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    The drivers are compressed with the Winzip. Have you used this software?
    This software is necessary for decompressing files.

    You have suggested that you have problems with the installation. It is very important to install drivers in the correct order.
    First of all, you need to install driver chipset and then all the other drivers as a pilot display etc.

    Please check for this possibility.

  • Satellite A30 161 does not work when the battery is installed

    Hello

    I have a problem with my Satellite A30-161. The laptop works perfectly without the battery installed. With the battery installed and the AC adapter plugged the power supply and battery (light orange) are turned on.

    When turn on/off, as soon as WXP loaded the battery light turns off and the laptop turns off. With battery only laptop does not start. There is no dirt on the heat sink and it doesn't seem to be a problem with the connector DC and power lights still on.

    Any ideas?

    Hello

    This behavior is not easy to give an accurate diagnosis, but according to your description, I assume that there is a problem of electronic power supply. Just using special diagnostic tool, it is possible to check if there is a problem serious.

    To be honest, I don't think you can do it alone. The only thing you can try is to test it with new battery. Maybe you should contact the service authorized in your country. talk with them and you will see what they say.

    The FN keys are controlled by special software Toshiba, but it depends on the Windows installation.

  • Satellite P850 - FN keys not working not

    I recently bought a PC Toshiba laptop p850/049 and reformatted it for windows 7 64 x (from windows 8). After installing all the software Toshiba etc. everything worked fine but recently I noticed that the special function keys have stopped working. They certainly worked after I reformatted the computer because I remember the first time annoyed that whenever I went to refresh a webpage (f5) it would pass the trackpad as I was not familiar with the new configuration.

    I thought that the problem may be due to software "Logitech setpoint" I installed but I uninstalled since and the problem remains. Then I tried to uninstall and then reinstall the added value of packet and HW installation software and then check all card flash/keyboard settings.

    Then I tried to check the BIOS setting with no luck. No matter what setting I put it to the special keys do not work. When I "special function keys" value and press function buttons, the keypad lights up but nothing happens, in this mode if I press fn + function keys, they work in their normal mode IE spell check or refresh or full screen, etc. When I have it value "normal f1-12 function keys" the same applies to this f5 refreshes successfully, but fn + f5 does nothing. I tried to play with the settings in accessibility and HW set up and flash cards and in the BIOS without effect (it seems that change the HW set up and bios configuration change from the other and vice versa).

    It seems no matter what I set it on the keyboard seems to be impossible to access the option special function keys. I recently got sp1 under win 7 x 64, this could be a part of the problem? I'm not entirely sure when keys doesn't work but I don't know they worked after reformatting to windows 7.

    any help would be appreciated

    Did you restart the utility of Flash Cards, which can be found under:

  • Satellite A130: Fn key not working only not with Vista - only FlashCards

    Hello

    I've been looking around in the forums, but I couldn't find solutions to my problem.

    I have a satellite A130 and I am running a windows VISTA family Basic. I have a problem with my fn functions.
    I can only use flash on the top of my screen cards, just by dragging my mouse upwards on the top of my screen.

    The key works only when I start my computer, at startup, but when the computer is running, there is no other "fn", I could use but my mouse to show my flash cards and use them.

    Is there something else I could do?
    Thank you

    I have same situation, remove the starting windows for the form Flash cards and you have no pictures at the top of the desctop, but keys will work.

    Satellite A30 FN keys do not work

    Hello

    What especial of the fn function does not work?
    If you want to use, for example the FN + F3 or FN + F2 you need preinstalled power saving.
    The Fn key functions depends on the application of 3rd as a saver or display pyromecanismes change utility for FN + F5.

    You should check the saving of Toshiba for the necessary drivers and reinstall it.
