    Click Start-> settings-> Control Panel-> mouse and then after you have reached the 'mouse' it must be a tab named "Advanced."

  • Satellite C850-1F2 - cannot activate the touchpad

    Hello

    Recently, I installed Windows 7 on my C850-1F2. For the installation to finish, I had to disable all unnecessary devices in the BIOS, including the internal pointing device/keyboard. After that, the installation went well and I subsequently installed all drivers (downloaded from Toshiba) manually correspondents.

    All devices can be installed and work properly - with the exception of the touchpad.
    If I re-enable the touchpad in the BIOS, Windows will not start. It just stops at 'Starting Windows' screen - not the gel (continuous loop animation), it will not simply continue. Starting in safe mode, it will also stop after loading all the drivers. I've had the laptop that works all night to see if I was just being too impatient, but nothing helps.

    Also, the system does not detect the touchpad. Manager devices displays only the USB mouse, that I have connected or anything. When you access the parameters of 'Mouse', the system will first ask me if I want to uninstall the Synaptics drivers. I have thus tried to reinstall the Toshiba and the generic Synaptics driver but no touchpad.

    If I use FN + F5 to activate the touchpad (while it is already disabled in the BIOS), I simply disable the keyboard. The touchpad does not work. However, I have to disable it again, then put the laptop to sleep and it wakes again so that the keyboard works again.
    Furthermore, if I reboot after using the fn + f5, again, the touchpad is enabled in the BIOS and Windows does not start.

    I'm really confused at this point. What Miss me?

    > For the installation to finish, I had to disable all unnecessary devices in the BIOS, including the internal pointing device/keyboard.
    I installed Win7 several times but I never heard of something like this and I've always installed when moved the BIOS default settings so I put t understand this theory and does not understand why you did that.

    In any case, if nothing works well I highly recommend to upgrade the BIOS to the default settings and then install the clean version of Win7. I hope you are using Microsoft original installation disc and not some self made things.

    I put t think that there is a magic trick that can solve your problem.

  • Satellite A300-1EG: problem with the touchpad after installing Windows 7

    Hello!

    I had a problem with my touchpad since I installed Windows 7 (64-bit version) on my laptop (Toshiba) A300-1EG.

    I tried many different solutions to this problem.
    I checked the alignment of the touchpad (be it on) in the BIOS, I tried to install several drivers (on a site of Synaptics, automatically by Windows) and none of these work. Of course, I tried FN + F9 key combination.
    When I check the alignment of the touchpad in the Control Panel, everything seems fine. It is written, that "device working properly.

    I have Toshiba Software, what may be the cause of the problem?
    But I have no idea where I can find something.

    I'd appreciate any help.

    I hope to be understandable - English is not my mother tongue :) Thank you very much in advance for any ideas. :)

    Hi mate

    I'm not quite sure what problem you have but you should first try to install the necessary drivers touchpad m.
    Maybe you used the wrong driver in the past

    So Sat A300-1EG belongs to the series of PSAG4E.
    The European driver Toshiba page does not provide a special touchpad driver for Win 7 for this device.

    But I noticed that Win 7 64 bit drivers touchpad (Alps & Synaptics) for Satellite L500 PSLS3E series is released on the European driver page.
    Try both drivers Touch Pad for this device and test it!

  • Satellite A300 - how to recover the operating system without a recovery disk?

    First of all, sorry for my very bad English.

    I bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite A300, PC 9 months ago. I had problems with a virus and result is that despite clean-up and disinfection, the computer is still infected and I refused access to the hard drives and regedit.

    I thought restoring the operating system factory preinstaled (hopefully, this is the solution and not the formatting) and Barrie told me to check out http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm

    I did it, but the PC it's imposible because there is no files. I don't have a rescue CD (if newbee).

    What can I do?

    Hello

    Usually the A300 (European series) has been equipped with HARD drive recovery option which would be you allows to recover the laptop using the files on the HARD drive. But if this is not possible while something went wrong with the maybe HDD it s due to the infection by the virus

    In any case if you are not able to recover the laptop using the recovery of HARD drive you need the recovery disc.
    You can order it as suggested by resident on the other hand, you can use the MS Windows Vista disk and can download driver Toshiba page.

  • Re: Satellite A300 - how to restore the original condition?

    Hello

    My computer freezes for a second or 2 from time to time and Toshiba support told me it might be a software problem. I don't think, because he began the day I bought the laptop and the display driver keeps on the work stoppage, but because I said that if it's a software problem.
    I would have to pay for it, I want to try everything before sending it for repair. This is why I would like to restore my Satellite in its original state as he was just at the moment where I bought it.

    So basically I have 2 questions:

    1 - does anyone have any idea why it keeps freezing on me? And what I should try to do to fix it?
    2. can someone tell me how to restore the laptop to its original state?

    Thank you very much Dina

    Hello

    To determine if it of a software problem or not, you need to restore the factory setting and if it doesn't work you can go to an authorized service provider. They can repair the laptop for you.

    The factory settings can be restored with the Toshiba recovery disc. I guess that your laptop has been delivered with Windows Vista, if you have options to restore factory settings: the Toshiba disk recovery or HARD drive recovery service.

    HARD drive recovery function formats the first partition of your laptop and install Vista again with all the drivers and tools of Toshiba. It is an image that is stored on the second partition of HARD drive in the folder HDDRecovery.
    If you go into the advanced with F8 boot menu after you start the computer, you can start this feature of Toshiba. And then select Repair my computer and some Windows files will be loaded. Then, you can choose the function to drive HARD Toshiba Recovery and follow the instructions on the screen.

    The Toshiba Recovery disk, you must create first, or have you done this yet? Normally, you get a reminder of recovery message after the first start of the laptop that you must burn this disc. Therefore, you must the preinstalled Toshiba recovery disc creator and the image in the folder in HARD drive recovery will be burned on the disc. Then you have a startup disk that can restore the factory settings and HARD whole disc formats then back up your data first!
    The recovery disk is necessary if you have a new HDD or Windows start doesn t. Otherwise, you can use HARD drive recovery.

    I hope I could help a bit and now you understand how to restore the factory settings.
    If you have any other questions, please let us know! :)

    Good bye

  • Satellite L750 - how scrolling with the touchpad?

    I have a Satellite L750 (my first laptop and first touchpad) running Windows 7. I put the mouse scrolling to 1 line at a time, but every time I place the pointer on the right scroll bar arrow down (and press the left button or press on) the screen pops so that the scroll bar is at the bottom. I want the screen to "inch" down slowly as if I was using a mouse wheel.

    Yes, I know that the answer is probably very simple, so those people who are itching to answer don't forget I'm a 'newbie' to touchpad.

    Concerning

    Hey,.

    You can scroll with the touchpad on the right side of it. Just move your finger upward or down on the right side of the touchpad and you can scroll with this gesture. It of not complicated and very easy.
    In addition, these basic operations are described in the user manual and I recommend reading. ;)

    If you are not familiar with the touch pad, you can also connect an external USB mouse (mouse even as on a desktop computer). These external mice are cheap and you don't need a driver for it. Just connect it to a USB port and it of ready to use :)
