• Missing symbols when typing fast on my Satellite L550

  Hello

  My Satellite L550 laptop has the same problem of keyboard L670 series. More often, some keys don't work, always the same: 1 6 s d g j... When this problem occurs, I can type using a second key like shift or SPACEBAR.

  L670 series that has been corrected by new BIOS but on L550 what could I do?

  Sometimes it works fine, but I still need to type slowly, but it won't...

  Thanks a lot for a solution

  Sorry for my bad English

  > More often, certain keys do not work, always the same: 1 6 s d g j... When this problem occurs, I can type using a second key like shift or SPACEBAR.

  To be honest it s I do not know that the L550 would be affected by the same problem of keyboard as the L670.
  Have you tested this behavior of the laptop with an external USB keyboard?
  Do this

  If the same question is not available using the second external USB keyboard, this means that the BIOS is ok and the internal keyboard is affected.

• Satellite P300-22R - missing letters when you type too fast

  Hello!

  I found a lot of articles about my problem in the internet, but I have not found a solution

  My keyboard on my P300-22R ist no longer works. If I write a little too fast, there are a few missing letters or they come twice.

  I already read the http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB1103370000R02.htm of Toshiba, that I should install a BIOS update to fix the problem. The update of the Bios was a success, the inexplicable laptop properly. But it doesn't seem to work so far. Still a few letters are missing.

  Do you have any other ideas? It's really boring, write a text like this: Pei

  Do you need information more?

  Thanks for your help!

  >... ist no longer works
  How to understand this? And in the past, everything was OK?
  What operating system do you use?
  When you type a little slower is there a difference?

  To be honest this problem on P300 is not known to me because I've installed on my Win7 32 bit a year ago and so far all brothers works perfectly.

• Missing letters when you type on Satellite M105

  I use a Satellite M105-S3084 (Windows XP MCE) and fighting in vain with a keyboard problem since I bought it first. I tend to type fast, especially the double letters and find that very often a single of double letters appears on the screen. For example, 'kk' translate to 'k' only and the similar missing letters even if not doubled. This causes a lot of waste of time correcting what I type.

  I know that there are parameters under control Panel\Keyboard ("repeat delay" and "repeat rate") which allow the adjustment of speeds, but I found the frustrating to use. I tried both with different settings and still have a problem with the missing letters. Maybe I don't know how to define that, and I just get frustrated, or there is another bet in another place which I do not know.

  Others have had this problem with the mising letters while typing and found a solution?

  Thank you.

  Hello, Jeff

  If I'm remembering right, there was a similar problem with the Satellite L10 and L20, I don't remember. This problem has been fixed with the new version of the BIOS. US models of laptops are not known to me, but if you have time you can check IRIS ask on the page we Toshiba. You will find many interesting documents.

  Check it out under the http://askiris.toshiba.com/ToshibaSupportSite/supportcentral/supportcentral.do?id=m1

  Maybe you will be lucky and find something on your problem with the keyboard.

• Satellite L750D-14R - keyboard missing letters when you type

  I recently bought a laptop L750D-14R and he has problems with the keyboard completely ignoring letters when you type.

  If I type any faster than the pace of 1 finger of each hand, and then I can abandon typing altogether.
  If anyone else has had a similar problem and if so is there a solution?

  Hello

  Yes, I know that this question.
  As far as I know that this has been fixed by the updated BIOS

  See the European driver of Toshiba page and download the latest BIOS for your laptop model.
  Update the BIOS and check how it works.

• Satellite A200-1AI: keyboard missing letters when I type

  My keyboard seems to be missing a few letters when I type them. I have to type very slow to make sure that all the letters reach the screen. Any ideas?

  Hello

  The same thing happened to me. I use an old notebook and the problem has been resolved by the BIOS updated.
  It seems you laptop computer A200 is a series of very new and not very long on the market.
  That's why I put t think that new BIOS is already available.

  Take a look at the Toshiba page from time to time, and perhaps the new BIOS will be available.

• Satellite A300 - after several months, it became noisy

  Hi all!

  I have a problem with my Satellite A300. The cooling fan is not functioning effectively. The fan runs almost constantly, even if the PC in standby, when I do nothing on computer.
  I cleaned the fan holes and ventilate the air, so it is very clean. I checked the cooling modules in the Toshiba Power Saver, as well as in the ATI PowerPlay.
  All settings are OK...

  The question is, why my Toshiba works fine, when I just bought it, but after several months, it has become a noisy machine? It was very very portable and fan worked perfectly...

  Thanks a lot for your help!

  Hello!

  In your case I would use compressed air jet on the underside and on the left side of the laptop to make sure that blow you the dust from the cooling fans.

  After cleaning your laptop, you should look into the Vista power management. Here you can change the cooling method and choose another option, for example optimized battery.

  Maximum cooling performance method means that your CPU can run on the highest speed and so it needs more cooling.

  Good bye

• Satellite A300 restarts randomly when it is plugged in power chords

  I know it has been on many topics and forums before but-

  Satellite A300 Toshiba registered repairman after only another technician claimed the question was the motherboard.

  So a new hard drive had to be replaced (it was old age) by registered repairer.

  Graphics card died - map is part of the motherboard = motherboard replaced.

  Supposed to win - phone to make sure everything is well = "there still the issue."

  QUESTION = RANDOM COMPUTER RESTARTS WHEN THE POWER CORD IS PLUGGED

  Don't forget not that the shop has been informed of the initial question
  1. phone call.
  2. by myself (wife) when I dropped the camera repair
  3. in the drop by my husband via phone
  4. by myself at diagnosis
  5 once again by my man when diagnostics
  6. by my man when he discussed the hard drive with 2 people at the store options
  7. after replacing hard drive
  8. by myself when new montherboard was "mandatory".
  9. my man at the same point

  So you can imagine today is both 10th, 11th and 12th, the store has been said that they do not listen

  I got to say REGISTERED REPAIRER WHAT TOSHIBA to TROUBLE THE PROBLEM!

  NOW for my NEXT question.

  On all THE forums I have read about it, I always come back to the same answer - replace NEC/CATHERINE Proadlizer

  However, in looking at the published images and instructions I now get the image that this is part of the motherboard also. This is why I wonder how actually to our brand new motherboard installed days ago!

  If the capacitor is part of the motherboard I think which was replaced why this question is STILL being implemented?

  If not where is it located?

  At our graphics card on the old Board REALLY dead?
  Or was this like the last technician and as demonstrated - surprisingly not listening?

  All related information (and directions to give the tech) would be greatly appreciated.

  Hello

  I'm really sorry to hear that you have such problems after Exchange of motherboard and I really don't understand why service is not properly check and test the features of the laptop.
  To discuss these issues is quite complicated because we can only speculate what may be the problem and no one can say with certainty why this happens.

  In my opinion all you can do is to do some tests and try to do a rational conclusion, but in the end service should solve the problem.

  Just a few questions about described:
  Everything is OK is when you use the power supply battery?
  How it works with power supply current when the battery is removed?
  Start the machine and enter the BIOS settings. Leave it for a while and check if computer laptop turns off again?
  What operating system do you use? Are you using the original OS that you got with the A300 or clean install of the OS?

• Satellite A300 - his stutters when I enable Wi - FI turns

  Hello!

  I am owner of a Satellite A300, and almost from the beginning, I noticed some occasional stuttering on the sound.

  Really got me bugged with this question, and I tried several times to solve. I even got to the point of resetting the default computer. Sooner or later, the same problem started again.
  I even started a thread in the media forum, without a solution for the bug. Even if I had a valuable contribution on an antivirus I've tried and I think is quite good, avira.

  Let me describe more accurately 'symptoms:

  * I recently discovered, this annoying behavior isn't random.
  * The stuttering is repeated at the minute, all about the same second every minute.
  * This led me to suspect a certain type of hardware/software cyclical behavior.
  * I guessed the laptop components that could have this kind of cyclical 'check' could be wireless equipment, for example, searching for a kind of networks.
  * Immediately, I turned off the switch.
  * Waiting for this ' second marked "happen and to my surprise, the suttering did not.
  * WAIT a few minutes and the situation remained out of any disruption.
  * then I turned the switch back on and within seconds after 4 or 5, the suttering returned and again the minutes that follow, by the same second.
  Does anyone have an idea what might be causing this problem?
  I have to say that sometimes, I am able to have the switch on without problems. In this case (I think) when I start the system with the switch, wait until the system is fully elapsed, turn on the switch and start a had-hoc wifi network that I created on my laptop to share my computer with a dsl connection laptop here at home.

  But right now, I booted the system with incidentally on switch (even got stuttering on the welcoming sound of windows) and in this session, I was not able to maintain the switch without the "bug", again. Even if I activate the had-hoc wifi network (i.e. activation worked on other times), I can't get the stuttering sound, without having to press the switch.

  See you soon!

  Hello

  What are you writing about? Your laptop starts with windows media player playback music or how to understand this?

  I have Satellite A300-1LI in front of me, and I tested it with Vista preinstalled original. Work on my Satellite I like listening to music or simply Internet radio. I can switch on / off WIFI, but there is no difference. Absolutely no sound stuttering.

  Believe me, that's not easy to say why this happens. I do not understand why you write about the bug. Why my laptop doesn t have the same bug that your?

  This happens when you only use the WLAN switch or when you use the FN + F8 key combination too?

• Satellite A300/A300D blocks when I play the game

  Hello from Croatia and I'm sorry if spelling has some errors

  I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite A300/A300D
  Here are its features:
  Processor:
  Turion (tm) X 2 AMD Dual - Core Mobile RM-74 (2 CPUs), ~ 2.2 GHz
  Video card:
  ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650 graphics card
  Operating system:
  Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit (6.1, Build 7600) (7600.win7_gdr.100226 - 1909)

  When I bought the laptop I had Windows Vista 32-bit, after I put Windows 7 32-bit

  After a while the games have begun to block, even the call of duty 2, I play 5 minutes, and then after 5 minutes to block the departure of about 5-6 seconds and then is good and if all the minutes. I don't know what to do and ask for help

  Thank you

  It is not easy to say what the problem is here. I imagine that some background processes are active and the HARD disk must be busy then you will see that the game crashes or stutters.

  It may be an antivirus application that scans the HARD drive or something similar.
  Have you tried to unplug the laptop from the LAN/WLAN, close all the race but not need process/applications and switch to high performance power plan before you start your game?

  Please play with all this stuff. I mean that Win7 works better on these books like Vista so I think it must be a software related issue somehow.

• Problems with the missing letters when the combination of Microsoft Word documents

  Hello

  I had a problem which I hope someone can help me with.

  When I combine several documents (9 total, .doc and .pdf files), some words have letters missing - leaving large voids in the words. It seems that, it seems to happen to positions with the font style "Arial (topics)."

  After some research, I realized that others have seen a similar problem and it could be solved in the Adobe PDF printer properties (properties > Preferences > defaults :).) However, after testing a few different settings, nothing seems to be fixing the issue and I will always have the same missing letters in the final document to convert.

  I use Adobe Pro XI - I was wondering if there is a update/fixes for this? I'm on version 11.0.07. For some reason, I am unable to update so I can't verify this.

  Can someone offer any assistance with this?

  Thank you

  This occurs due to the creation of subsets of fonts. Not all letters are available because they may be in subsets of different fonts. Delete the fonts embedded in the pdf file, then re - incorporate fonts.

• Missing letters when entering online.

  I go online and start typing a question or answer to one, and I get a problem with lack of letter KEYS while typing. But when I use outlook express I don't have the problem. It happens when I type in the letters or on a forum. I tried to go back to the computer, defragmentation, Microsoft quick fix, I have a desktop computer and I bought several keyboards, thinking that was the cause. The computer is a HP Pavilivon NB dv9700, I use for RoadRunner cable internet.

• My move slider to the other lines and paragraphs and letters when typing e-mails and do their homework.

  As a first step, if you see letters where they aren't suppose to be, I'll put this word in brackets. If you don't see everything, it happens sometimes. I've had this laptop for 18 months. Motherboard has been replaced three times. Cursor and letters move to other lines and paragraphs themselves. This problem is annoying, especially when I do the assignments in class. Is their a fix for this problem, or what?

  Please help, my time is precious.

  Uncle Midgy

  Your laptop has a touchpad?  Chances are good that you are accidentally in touch with her all by tapping and activating the latter and that moves the cursor (and before you notice it, you typed a letter whenever the cursor moves towards).  This happened to me until I bought a separate mouse and disable the touchpad - then the problem has disappeared.

  Some touchpad controls (usually located under the start menu / control panel / mouse have commands to disable the touchpad while typing.)  See if that is the case with yours and if so, activate the function, and it can be useful.  If you do not have the service contact the computer manufacturer to obtain the latest device drivers touchpad and install (and update the drivers for the keyboard while you're there just in case it is the source of the problem, but I think it is the touchpad) - they contain the function as an upgrade.  Go to the Device Manager by going to start / find and type Device Manager and enter and then double-click on the program icon that appears.  Check each device to a red x, yellow! or white?  These identify devices with problems probably (drivers, but also of conflict or something else).  Click on each for more details and troubleshooting tips.  If you need to get drivers (and you do it for your keyboard and touchpad), get the computer dealer or the manufacturer of the device (NOT of Microsoft Updates).  In fact, you must disable automatic updates in Windows Update driver as follows: http://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/how-to-disable-automatic-driver-installation-in-windows-vista/. Follow these steps to get the drivers: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/ht/driverdlmfgr.htm.  Once you have the drivers, you can install them via the Manager device as follows: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-device-manager-install-driver.html.

  I hope this helps.

• Satellite L730 - keyboard skips when typing.

  Hello

  I use L730 of Toshiba Satellite Pro with PSK09L part number - 009005.

  While typing on the keyboard, the cursor will move to random places, and it is difficult to at least complete a sentence without error.

  I tried looking for drivers of keyboard, but I don't get to see the part number PSK09L - 009005 to choose the good BIOS or drivers of keyboard.

  Please notify.

  Kind regards

  Hello

  Try please disable touchpad and check if the same thing will happen again.
