Satellite A300 - Touchpad freeze

Hello

At my laptop for about 18 months. She has now developed an irritating habit of freezing the pointer that cannot be erased by restarting.

Any ideas on what I need to do to fix this?

Hello

Does this mean that only your touchpad freezes or the computer?

So without more information it of difficult to say something about this but I recommend you to install the latest driver for the touchpad on Toshiba website:

  • Satellite A300 - Touchpad gets too hot

    I bought a Satellite A300 last week and I noticed that when I use the computer for an hour or so the touchpad becomes very hot.
    And also the area of the left hand next to the touchpad.

    Is this normal? Is there a way to reduce it?

    Thank you

    Pedro.

    Hi Pedro,

    I put t know what what is for you hot and wasn't, but on my Toshiba Satellite laptop I've never had a problem that it too hot.

    Normally, I recommend to clean the laptop with a jet of compressed air, but I think that is not necessary because the laptop is only a week.
    Maybe the fan or the heatpipe is malfunctioning. Or the thermal grease to be renewed

    I put t know but in your case, I would go to an authorized service provider. Technicians can check your laptop and it should be free, because the laptop must be under warranty if it s a week-old.

  • Satellite A300 - touchpad & keyboard issues

    I have the same problem that a lot of people is faced with (PSAG8E - 05J00TEN Toshiba Satellite A300 - 21H). I'm sure that the touchpad is not disabled.
    Clean installation of Windows VISTA - touchpad & keyboard half the time not work half the time. I'm sure this isn't a driver problem (if it doesn't not Device Manager said was a problem with the device..). I already tried 5 different drivers...
    I am faced with the question since I bought it... I thought that there could be problem with OS, today I installed UBANTU but face question (Mouse pad stops after some time) with this OS too... I'm sure that its hardware problem not with OS or any driver...

    Please can someone is there any solution for this...

    I have Satellite A300-1LI and it is also PASG8E but I n t notice a keyboard or touchpad problem. At the beginning I used it with the original image of Vista, but about a year now, I use Windows XP Home edition and Win7 as dual-boot. No problem at all.

    If you have noticed this strange problem from day one, why you didn t contacted Toshiba service and asked for help?
    I can imagine there is a hardware problem but I put t know what you want to do all alone on this subject. want to trade you the keyboard or the touchpad only.

    Replacement of keyboard is not a big problem but the touchpad...

    > but it gives me a note telling me that I needed some kind of code.
    Is what code exactly?

    What webcam you use with MSN?
    What is the internal webcam A300?

    In your case I would recommend the update to Vista everything. Please check if SP1 has been installed already.

  • Satellite C850 touchpad freezes frequently

    I got a Satellite C850 last weekend and I have problems with the mouse pad - it freezes frequently... any help greatly appreciated - really don't want to have to send in for repair after only 5 days

    Try to update the software/driver for the touchpad.
    Visit the page of the Toshiba UE driver:
    http://www.Toshiba.EU/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp
    Choose the model of laptop you have and download the touchpad driver.
    I guess that it s of Synaptics.

  • Satellite C660 - TouchPad freeze at startup

    Hi I'm new and this is my first post so please be gentle!

    I have a Satellite C660 with windows 7 purchased as a refurb factory it is my 1st laptop, I have a problem after startup, and everything loaded on my desktop, it seems that if I use my TouchPad too early it freezes, he did it since I bought it, but I thought it was me being not used to a touchpad and the "bloatware" to start is the only way I can get the pointer to move if I have a finger from the top to the bottom of line scrolling to the right of the TouchPad horizontally or diagonally, it moves very slowly until I can be open and close a browser window, the file or even the startup window, then it will then act as usual and do not freeze again for my entire session If I leave it for five minutes at the start, it works fine, sometimes it will freeze also out of standby or hibernation, but not always.

    OK, I thought maybe it was the necessary driver update I checked in Device Manager and it said it was working properly but that of course is when the pointer is as it should be, in the Device Manager if I pilot of the touchpad/driver/update and internet search it tells me I have the drivers updated If I choose to search for a driver on my computer/let pick me from a list of device drivers that I have the following:-

    Mouse Compatible PS/2
    Synaptics PS/2 Port Compatible TouchPad
    Synaptics PS/2 Port Compatible TouchPad
    Synaptics PS/2 Port TouchPad

    I should have all those showing? can someone with a file of similar specifications check that for me please?

    strange thing is that if I go to TouchPad properties via the taskbar, and then click driver all options except the driver Details are grayed out and done, I can open two windows of TouchPad properties from the device and the task bar manager and have them on the screen at the same time.

    Some things I should mention are a mouse in the usb works fine, I stopped a lot of the "bloatware" and would help the useless stuff running at startup, hoping that I have disabled the function of locking of the click on the TouchPad, sound as it needs to be "warmed up" to run correctly when running properly it works fine without problem as the laptop came pre installed and only Disc I have is the recovery one create you the initial Setup!
    Any help would be appreciated!

    Hello

    First of all, I don t think that this problem is related to the installed touchpad driver but if you wish, you can install the latest touchpad driver available from the European driver Toshiba.

    Visit the European driver Toshiba page and choose:
    Computer laptop Satellite Satellite C series Satellite C660 driver Touchpad

    Now you should get all the touchpad driver available for C660 series.
    I found the driver for the touchpad Synaptics for Win7 32 bit and 64 bit.
    The latest version seems to be v15.2.11.1

    I think you should go to Panel of-> Software
    Check here if Synaptics touchpad driver appear in the list of installed software.
    If so, uninstall the present.
    Then, download and install the Synaptics v15.2.11.1 driver

    The touchpad settings could be changed in Control Panel-> mouse-> tab advanced-> button Advanced.

  • Satellite A300 - Touchpad does not work correctly

    Hi guys,.

    I recently had a problem with my laptop touchpad.

    The little icon in the toolbar that displays the status of the touch pad indicates that the touchpad is used even when it is not.
    There also some time did the same for the left click button.

    I tried to change settings in the control panel and tried to update the driver (windows tells me always upward even if this isn't so far!).

    Because the touchpad think he used this effects my LT performance! Any clues guys.

    Oh and Fn + F9 turns off the TP but the indication remains the same.

    Have you tried to use the touchpad the touchpad driver free? You should be able to use the touchpad without driver also, but you will have all these additional options.
    Can you please test?

  • Satellite A300-1MT freezes from time to time

    Hello.

    My lay is old and only 3 days and the only problem is that it freezes every time.
    I use it on AC/high performance. I just work on it, and when I run the installation of a game it freezes usually, when sometimes I'm working on it, just browse the internet or write in word, it just freezes, did some stupid lines on the screen and that's it.
    I have to stop it by pressing the button for 6 seconds.

    I watched the temperatures. CPU is the GU of 60-65, 50-55 and HDD on 40-45 degrees. and when it's freezing, HDD Led goes off, all the others are bright white.

    Can someone tell me what to do? What is the problem?
    Should I take it back and get a new one?

    Hello!

    It is not easy to say what is the reason for this problem, but I think this could be a problem of the RAM or the motherboard.

    In your case, I would check the RAM with Memtest86:
    [www.memtest86.com]

    Did you install the laptop with the Toshiba recovery disc or disc of Microsoft?
    Maybe reinstall Windows might also solve the problem. Try it.

  • Satellite A300 immediately freezes after startup

    Laptop running this morning and got a warning from Norton telling that my Antivirus software has been disabled.
    I never turned it off before so could not understand this.
    In any case, I clicked on the icon of fix in Norton, but it's stuck on 7%.

    I could still move the cursor on the screen, but nothing would work. I tried CTRL + ALT + DELETE, but that made no difference.
    Shut down the laptop by holding the power button. Once re-boot returned to Norton to try the complete analysis of the system, but after a few minutes it may stuck as before.
    Once again restarted and connected to the internet but once again after a few minutes it may jam. It seems, no matter what I do, it only takes 4-5 minutes before locking up.

    I looked on other forums using pc at work for possible corrections. Similar problems appear to be at with good overheating that found a site that suggests, it might be Service Pack associated.

    Does this sound right?
    Any help please welcome.

    Please answer in bases, as I am not an expert.

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    I think the software Norton Atntivirus could be the reason for your mobile number.
    It seems that this software does not work properly now, maybe you should reinstall it and update again.

    Or I have another idea.

    You could remove the software from the system and could switch to another tool called Avira Antivir I use this antivirus software and it s free and really big because this does not focus on the system such as Symantec's Norton.
    I read that Norton Antivir needs a lot of system resources. This might be the reason of your gel

  • Satellite A300-1EG freezes at startup

    I recently repartitioned (some partitions, including recovery, have been removed) drive and tried to install Windows 7. During installation, after choosing the installation partition Setup stopped responding (I could move the mouse pointer, but nothing else).

    I turned off laptop by pressing the power on button for 5 seconds, but now system crashes at "Toshiba Leading Innovation" screen whenever I turn it on.

    I can't access selector installation or startup, multimedia keys are flashing when you press on, lights work and respond to plug/unplug AC. Only the HHD led is turned on, but dimmed by comparing to others. Caps lock does not, laptop turns off after pressing power, without holding it.

    Before that I had some problems with the HDD, rare file system errors and Windows XP Setup was not working (frozen after Installer message determines the configuration system and constantly read disk until you restart).

    Hello

    Well, according to you the description, a HARD disk error may be possible.
    Have you tested the HARD drive?
    Isn't it?

    Then, you should do this; There is a nice drive test tool called HARD HARD drive Fitness Test.
    You can download it from various pages just google and you will find

    If the HARD drive fitness test will detect some errors then you replace the HARD drive.

    That s my personal opinion

  • Satellite A300-20 b - Touchpad does not work after BIOS update

    I've updated the BIOS on my Satellite A300-20 b latest version 2.00. Update succeeded, but when I rebooted system touchpad has stopped working.

    I tried to find the solution, resettled drivers (windows XP system). In the Windows Device Manager there is no problem with Synaptics PS/2 Port Touchpad, I see. Software Synaptics shows no problem I can enable and disable the touchpad, but it does not work for the touchpad. I tried Linux live CD and in this system does not work as good touchpad. I think there is problem in this version of the BIOS.

    Does anyone have the same problem?

    Hey Buddy,

    Have you tried to turn the touchpad on or off if you press FN + F9? Check this please!
    Also, try to load the default settings in the BIOS.

    What happens if you connect an external mouse to the laptop? It work?

    I can t imagine that the BIOS update causing this problem. If it doesn't work, you need to contact a service provider for help. They can check the touchpad and replace.
