Satellite A300-211 - light button has stopped working

Hello

How people you?
I have an annoying problem with my Toshiba Satellite A300-211.
I had windows vista Home premium 32-bit installed on it but then I removed and started using windows 7 ultimate 64-bit and a result of one touch media buttons used to switch the led light on and off changed its function and began to put the sound on and off.

When I installed the value-added package because the function key wasn't the button no longer works. It does not enable or disable the led light or the sound or no more.
It is blinking but does not.

Can someone help?

Hello

Have you tried to reinstall the VAP once more?
Check it!

Moreover, as far as I know you can configure media buttons by using the software.
Please check the software in all programs-> Toshiba

By the way; lighting can be turned on and off in the BIOS settings too!

  • Satellite A300-1HV: light button does not work

    Hi guys,.

    I recently bought a Satellite A300-1HV, and while that in the store, the salesman showed me it was possible to turn off the light behind the function/media at the top of the keyboard buttons. It seems to do by simply pressing the first button (the mute button).

    When I got home I tried several times, and he did in fact machine do what I expected (i.e. off lighting). The manual describes the first button under the button "Mute or LED power. Later that night, I tried the button again once, but this time it acted as a mute button and either turns off the lighting. In addition, the second button (CD/DVD) no longer seems to work at all, although it lights up when you press.

    I tried the Toshiba Assist software and am able to manually turn off the lighting, but the 'Toshiba button Support' seems to have no effect on buttons. I guess this would allow me to set up manually a program runs when I press one of two buttons, but no matter what I ask it to run, it does nothing.

    It's as if there is a piece of software that should be run, leading the keys, that I do not have (or at least no longer have).

    Any ideas?

    Hello

    You can enable this back in the BIOS.
    You can access this menu by pressing the F2 key when turned on the machine.

    Select the Advanced section and turn on LED lighting.

  • Satellite A300 - 1 5: webcam has stopped working - Webcam driver open fail

    Hello

    features of my laptop here: ([A300 - 1 G 5 | http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/jsp/SUPPORTSECTION/discontinuedProductPage.do?service=EU&com.broadvis ion.session.new = Yes & PRODUCT_ID = 1055589]) for any need details...

    The problem is simply, the webcam has stopped for some reason, an error messeage said "driver fail open Webcam. "Please restart camera or computer.

    I noticed that whenever I put the computer in mode "sleep" I was getting on the bar notification says "USB device not recognized..." I was not aware of what it was - he thought because of the mouse USB is connected... but I think that its related to the camera...

    the software is installed, but camera does not work and cannot allow him... I download the latest driver from the toshiba site, but still does not...

    Currently, my laptop runs Vista HP SP2 32-bit, Windows defender enabled, Windows Firewall enabled, the Windows UAC enabled, Ani-Virus of Kaspersky 2009 Enabled. I only use Windows Live Messenger (which I think to date, version: 14.0.8089.726) I used camera with, I quite using recognition of faces a long time ago and rarely use the webcam... I didn't install or update all drivers and used to have the laptop works perfectly...

    So what happened now?

    Hello

    I had a similar error message and might solve this problem by disabling startup webcam software.
    In msconfig-> Start Up tab I have disabled the Chicony webcam software.
    This prevents automatic loading.
    I don t use MSN but Skype and the Chicony webcam software is always off (unsigned) if Skype is running.

    Maybe you should try that too.

    In addition, you can try this:
    Go to Device Manager, mark the webcam (peripheral video imaging peripheral USB) and removed from the list of devices.
    Then restart the laptop and wait until the webcam is recognized again.

    Then test it.

    The delete button has stopped working in Outlook Express 6. Empty the file deletion was without help. How can I make it work again? Also I can't manually move an email in the folder to delete.  Any suggestions?

    Your deleted items folder is probably corrupted.  Close OE and delete the deleted items.dbx file.  OE will make a new and that should fix the problem.  Its a good time to save your messages if the records are get damaged.  You may lose all your messages.  See www.oehelp.com/OETips.aspx#6

    Original title: left click not working not not on HP laptop

    On my HP Elitebook 2760p running Windows 7 Pro 64 bit, left click on the touchpad button has stopped working.  The right click works, the works of pad, (scrolling and click on) it's just the left click.  It started after the execution of the new update of adobe. I tried to uninstall and reinstall the driver synaptec. I tried the mouse fast and slow speed. I tried pressing rigid, flexible, in different places. I would try to uninstall the update from Adobe, but it won't allow me.  So I uninstalled Adobe Reader and re-installed. Still nothing. Any suggestions?

    You try to run the Adobe Reader removal tool to remove the Adobe reader completely the system software.

    See the link to Adobe to download the removal tool:

  • Buttons and satellite C50-B-189 touchpad has stopped working

    my daughter received the foregoing, f. Christmas. the touchpad and associated buttons have stopped working -no cursor. How do we get working again? Stem +.

    Hi, this is due to the pad (which is buggy), just kill the process by using CTRL + SHIFT + ESC AND THE TAB more DOWN to navigate through the process target. I do it every start.

    Of tomsguide (November 2014):

    These patches do not help, all that happens is, after a while, the touchpad fails again. While Toshiba works on this point, I found a quick and effective solution. That's my new Windows 8 Toshiba.
    Press CTRL ALT SHIFT to get your process to come. Find the Touchpad "enhancer" process. Complete the process. Your touchpad works until the next reboot, how simply repeat this step.
    If you're struggling complete the process without being able to use your touchpad, I discovered a curious thing. If you hold a mouse click, you can move the arrow of the mouse with the touchpad very well. Its a bit... awkward... but all you have to do that is to end this process and after that, you can use the trackpad normally.

  • Satellite A500-138 - lighting buttons does not work even in the BIOS

    Hello.

    I'm just curious to know if anyone else has a problem with the (play/pause excatly) multimedia keyboard backlight? Mine died today, and there is nothing I can do to make it work again.

    The key still works, but when I turn on the backlight, backlight on everyone, but the play/pause (the backlight of the other keys work, touchpad and Satellite logo too).

    I use Windows 7, but the problem persists even in the BIOS.

    I think the backlight of the button is just dead.

    I have to admit I'm really disappointed with this laptop. Config is great, design and are also involved, but I can just take the couine noise that makes C2D (RMClock, one utility, I know that to solve this problem, does not recognize the A500 motherboard) and the fan almost never works to 70%, and now that the backlight...

    If the backlight of the multimedia key stops working after 3 weeks of use, which will be in the future? It's too scary to think ;)

    I was really excited by Toshiba, but day after day I come to the conclusion, that it is the first and the last laptop that I bought at Toshiba - never had similar problems on other laptops, same nonames.

    Of course, I know that I can has sent for fix, I guarantee (and wait about a month to get a backlight fixed stupid). But why hell not the backlight stoped working, if LEDs vitality is long as hell? It can mean two things: I really don't have a chance, or Toshiba did not pay too much attention to detail during production A500s. And after 3 weeks of use, I fear that the second option is much more likely...

    Then, someone has a feeling similar to this topic? And someone has a problem with backlight?

    Hello

    He damage of s to hear that your light has stopped working, but I think that it s just a software problem.
    I have a Satellite A500 equipped with buttons of enlightenment and everything works great with Vista and XP I m very satisfied.
    Unfortunately until that yet I didn't test with Win 7.

    I doubt you want to send this laptop for ASP, as I said, there seems to be a software problem and you can find it easily
    You must set the notebook to factory settings I mean that you must use the recovery disc in order to get the same State as on the first day of purchase

    Moreover, I visited the European driver of Toshiba page and, unfortunately, I didn't see no Win 7 drivers for this series at this time
    I guess that Windows 7 drivers will be released in the near future.
    So I wonder how you came to the button illumination because this feature requires the Toshiba driver and tools as well as the drivers aren't there?  :|

  • Satellite Z830-10U - Touch Pad has stopped working

    I have been using a USB mouse for a few weeks and touchpad is still operational. A few days ago the touchpad has stopped working. No issues are raised in the device manager that told me the power switch for the touchpad buttons. But by pressing the dedicated button and fn F9 has not changed anything.

    Really confused, but think I'm missing something really obvious that I can not think an event trigger, so assuming that some magic button will bring the key back to life.

    All help gratefully received...

    Hello

    What happens if you disconnect the USB mouse?
    You can use the touchpad again?

    From my point of view, the use or installation of an external USB mouse has affected the touchpad feature, I can't say with certainty why and what is happening right here, but I read in various forums on similar problems and sometimes caused USB mouse use touchpad problems.

    For example: in my case the touchpad does not work with connected USB mouse I was very confused, but found a solution in my case the option disable touchpad when USB mouse is connected has been verified and this disabled the touchpad.

    You can find it here:
    Control Panel-> mouse-> last (Advanced) tab-> the Advanced Settings button

    One of my friends couldn't use the touchpad because it has been disabled in the BIOS.
    It is worth to check also

    Hello

    If the reinstallation of the system with the recovery CD does not help, then it is not a software problem.
    This means that some hardware component is defective.
    In this case, you need to take your laptop to the service.

    Good bye

    Hi Jeroen,

    I think that your problem is related to overheating rather than a defective display driver. The idea here is that it takes several attempts to reboot, giving the unit time to cool.
    I suggest that you try to remove all dust and debris from your radiator and see if it improves the stability of your units.

    You can download a copy of your display driver of: -.

  • Satellite Pro M70 - Windows XP has stopped working - registry problems

    My M70 lost (I will follow soon!). Windows XP has stopped working, registry problems. I finished by using the Toshiba Recovery disk and reformat the hard disk. Said again there is some registry problems and crashing.

    One had similar problems?

    Phil

    Hi Phil,

    If your laptop is always report registry errors after having re-installed the operating system from the recovery disc, then it is likely that your hard drive has errors. The Windows XP registry is composed of several files (or urticaria), and the installation process will always be located in the same area of the hard drive.

    Kind regards
