Satellite A300D - how to activate the touchpad?

Hello world. I have a problem.

When I used XP I turned off touchpad while I use the mouse. So I decided to install Win Vista and there is a problem. I forgot to activate it before reinstaling. This is why my touchpad does not work. The drivers are fine and I tried to reinstall, but it did not help. Everything works fine except that I can't turn on the touchpad.

Any ideas how to do this?

Thanks in advance

Have you installed Vista using Toshiba DVD upgraders?
The mouse works if you use an external mouse?

When you install Vista with the recovery image you factory again and touchpad is not disabled by default. Check the FN + F9 option and do not forget the touchpad is not disabled.

    HI - does anyone know how to activate the scrolling of the mouse on the mouse pad?
    I guess it's an active software but cannot find how do.

    Hello

    a little tip, hope it helps you:

    Click Start-> settings-> Control Panel-> mouse and then after you have reached the 'mouse' it must be a tab named "Advanced."
    Especially, there is special software from the manufacturer, and there the settings can be changed.

    If not, look in your "Toshiba Console" If you do find something.

  • 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 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 :)

  • Satellite L300 - how to activate the RW function after installing xp?

    After my laptop was repaired with a new hard drive, I installed xp instead of vista.
    Now I can use the dvd rom for watching movies and install programs, but it is not accessible to any blank discs.
    The error window comes out whenever I have insert the drive empty and click the dvd rom.
    And the size of it always shows 0 bytes. CD or blank dvd-smoking works.

    Because it's a dvd/RW rom, usually I can just open and drag any file I want on the disc and then burn easily.
    I already updated the firmware driver.

    I wonder what the problem of the xp system that blocks the RW function?

    Hi mate

    Check the suggestion posted by Akuma.
    But, in addition, you can check if the write option is enabled in the ODD properties.

    For this, go to my computer-> CD/DVD drive properties (right click / Properties) registration mark called the option activate the writing of CD on this drive

  • Satellite P100: How to activate the AHCI mode?

    As all you know, some laptops P100 series are equipped with a controller Intel 82801GBM SATA natively supports the AHCI and with a Fujitsu HDD which takes in charge the NCQ.

    However, the disc is forced in compatibility mode, and therefore the NCQ is disabled, resulting in a loss of performance (which is certainly necessary that laptop hard drives are generally slower than those of office).

    Unfortunately, there is no option in the BIOS which activates the AHCI mode and no tool like HWUtility that can twist that (although it wouldn't work). As far as I know, newer laptops support AHCI mode and there is also an option in the BIOS to enable it.

    Is it possible to activate the AHCI mode in our laptops beloved and make the most of our hard drives?

    Hello

    Do you think that the AHCI is disabled?
    You can run the Intel Chipset ID utility to determine if the ICH7DH SATA controller is already running in AHCI or not.

    However, I studied a little more on other forums that are a little more specific and find this:
    Activate the AHCI on Intel chipsets, without having to reinstall Windows 2000/XP

    and

    I am curious to know is there, is it possible to disable HD2600 and X 3100 active?

  • How to activate the resolutions of wide screen on Satellite Pro A10

    Hello

    I looked through various positions through the forums, but have not found how to activate the wide screen on a Toshiba Satellite Pro A10 resolutions.

    The solution in the 2nd post won't work because the A10 has an Intel graphics card, not a Nvidia. He suggested also, modify the INF of the graphics driver, but to extract the driver (SA10B2DP.exe) file includes an installer, but no INF.

    Just look to see if anyone has any advice on how to activate the resolutions such as 1440 x 900 or 1680 x 1050.

    Thank you

    Hello

    you mean on the external screen, Don t you? If you have an intel chipset graphic why Don t you download the drivers from the website of intel.
    Maybe it offers a resolution of the external display.

    I don't know if the res external can be set to widescreen on this chipset as the drivers are somewhat limited...
    Can you describe what monitor you have and how you connect it to your machine. (d-sub or DVI)?

    Would appreciate some reactions :)
