Satellite A305D - some FN keys do not work

Hello

2 days ago the FN keys on my laptop has ceased to funtion properly, some of them work, such as Fn + F1, F6, F7, but others are not, such as Fn + F4, also when I pressed the button he used to bring up a menu of each key.

I had other problems so I disable everything using msconfig, reboot the system and then re-enable it as it was, it seems, the keys fn not properly reactivate.

Thanks for any help

Hello

In this case, you should try to reinstall the drivers and tools responsible for this function keys.
Did you do that?

Satellite A305D seems to be long at the Toshiba US series.
I know that because of the 5 at the end of the model of laptop.

Then go to the Toshiba page us and visit the page of the driver:

  • Satellite Pro L300 some FN keys do not work on XP

    I bought a L300-164 on Monday. However, there is no preinstalled opsys. I installed a Win XPSP2 (HUN) on it and downloaded the drivers from www.toshiba-europe.com.

    First I have installed chipset and video drivers, then I installed "common Modules". After you finished and restart I tried to install 'orders', but who says "common modules" are not installed.

    So I installed 'save energy' and tried to install it once more the 'controls '. Now, it has been installed normally. Finally, I put on "hotkey utility" and "touchpad utility power. So everything seems to be all right on the machine, but a few FN keys do not work: F6 and F7 doesn't control brightness, F2 is not change power mode and F9 switch touchpad power (of course in a hurry with the FN). However, volume knob works, ESC as the work of mute and Fx buttons also work elsewhere.

    Y at - it ideas to make these buttons work?

    Sat L300-164 seems to belong to the PSLBDE series, and you must download and use the drivers from the Toshiba European designed for the series Sat L300 PSLBDE page.

    Is the common Modules is a key driver that is important for the functionality of the FN button.

    I would recommend so reinstall the common modules again!

  • Satellite 5200 701: FN keys do not work

    Hello

    I installed my Satellite 5200 701 with Windows XP. Everything works fine. My only problem is that the FN keys do not work. I downloaded and installed all the drivers available from the home page, but it still doesn't work. Can you please send me what kind of driver I need exactly?

    Hello

    I put t know if you have the original Tools & Utilities CD for this camera. If so there must be advice that the common modules (V.5.03.00) must be installed as a first step, before you install any other tool or utility. This order of the facilities is very important because the common modules is a kind of module which is very important for the other features of the tools.

    Also check out this CD if there is some sort of html file with installation instructions. If you can't find anything please post again. Maybe we can find something to help you.

    Good luck!

  • Satellite P300D - 12L: Enter key did not work in games like FIFA, NFS

    Hi all!

    I own a laptop Tshiba Satellite P300D - 12 L.
    In the last month, I got Win XP 32-bit installed and it became a strange problem: the Enter key did not work in games like FIFA, NFS, but in others, and in the office, it worked normal applications.

    A few days ago, I installed Win 7 64 bit and now I have the same problem.

    Recently I went to my local Toshiba service and they told me, about this problem, it's a software issue, so I changed my OS.

    Anyone know what I can do to solve my problem?

    Thank you

    Hello

    You mean the Enter key works in common applications such as Internet Explorer, Windows Explorer, or some editors correctly?
    Only these few games are troubled?

    Hmm that's strange
    You use the latest version of the BIOS?

  • Satellite C660 - the SHIFT key does not work

    Hello

    I have a problem with a Satellite C660.
    The keyboard, I cannot use the SHIFT key. After you have installed windows everything worked properly, the problem recurs after a few days. Practically the SHIFT key does not work.
    On the one hand I'm the A and the other side works like ESC.

    Help me I'm crazy.
    Thank you.

    Hello

    To me that sounds more like a keyboard failure, I can't imagine that it could be linked to the question of the windows operating system do you have tested an external USB keyboard.

    Please test this. In this case, you can check if it s really a software problem.
    If the USB keyboard works correctly, it means that your internal keyboard is malfunctioning.

  • Satellite A500-15N: FN keys do not work

    Hello

    I hope someone can help,
    The function key does not work in windows (I mean here the keys Fn + F6/7 change the brightness during the windows loading screen). There also seem to be buttons along the top of the keyboard (commodity the power button), but these also does not work and never have (and if they are sposed to light up they don't do that either). To let you know where I am, I received my upgrade to windows 7 and installed as the instructions in the package yesterday, (although I had the lappi for a week, I waited for the upgrade before installing anything) but once it was installed, I found he had installed the 32-bit version After trying to re - install vista 64-bit of the unsuccsesfully partition, I finally have reistalled Windows 7 64-bit DVD upgrade, (I think I should add that when it has finished installing any additional software IE.) Toshiba software, McAfee, etc. was installed)...
    I downloaded all the software Toshiba on the site, including the update of the bios (V1.50) and the update of recovery, I searched on the web and the forums and although have managed to install the infrared port that there appear to be no driver for on the dirver for this notebook page, these keys Fn stupid are making fun of me anyway... Please help :D

    THX Telico

    PS. I have a Tosh A500-15N and I forgot to say that I tried to do a new installation to see if that would solve the problem, but the ability to recover from the hidden partition is not available on the list, you get to by pressing F8 as windows starts (although the partiotion still exists)

    Post edited by: Telico

    Hey man, you made it so complicated but in fact all it is so easy and it s pitty, that you have not written of this before you start the upgrade procedure.

    I did update Win7 on friends Satellite A500 month last successfully. This means, he had the factory settings (Vista 32-bit) and we have installed Win7 upgrade using the Toshiba upgrade kit. Laptop works perfectly.

    Back to your question:
    HARD drive recovery option (F8 and repair my computer) is available with the factory only settings.
    If I understand you right, you did a fresh install of Win7. This option won't be available more, and the image recorded on the second partition is useless now and can no longer be cast.

    You can get it if you reinstall Toshiba recovery image. Have you created any such recovery disc recommended by Toshiba?

    I checked Toshiba support and download page and Win7 64 bit is supported on your laptop model and you can do clean install Win7 and install all missing things also. You will be the factory settings but works fine Win7.

    If you need more information please let us know.

  • Satellite P200 - 144 FN keys do not work

    Hello

    I have a dual-boot configuration, and I came across a problem. I have XP and Vista installed, and the FN keys do not work under XP. I had a look at the manual and it said something about Fn-Esse. Can someone help me solve this problem?

    Thank you
    Neo-Tech

    If I m not mistaken the P200-144 belongs to the series PSPBGE and European Toshiba driver page doesn t provided no details on the FN-Esse driver or something like that

    As far as I know the Hotkey Utility driver must be installed to control and use the FN keys.
    Also note that the driver installation procedure is very important.
    If you install drivers or utilities in the wrong order and then some features could not work as should.

    On the European driver page, you should find a txt file called installation instructions.
    Follow this order, and install as mentioned it.

  • Satellite Pro A200 - Fn keys does not work with Windows Vista

    Hello

    I own a Satellite Pro A200-PSAE7E and a license to retail for Windows Vista Ultimate 32-bit Edition (with SP1) is installed.

    Before installing Vista, I have updated the BIOS to the latest version available on the Toshiba site ([http://it.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/vista_drivers.jsp?service=IT]).
    BIOS version is now 2.20 - WIN32 contained in this file: [http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/bios-20080404121735.zip]

    After the installation of the operating system, I installed "Value package" ([http://support1.toshiba-tro.de/tedd-files2/0/vap-20080109135106.zip]) that contains the "utility Flash Cards". In my understanding, the installation of the "value added package" should allow the use of Fn keys.
    This doesn't seem to be true or not true.

    Here's what's happening.

    -Prior to installation of the 'value-added' package, all Fn keys did not work.
    -After installation of the "value added package", if the process of TCrdMain.exe is running, all Fn keys do not work.
    -If I remove the startup TCrdMain.exe and I restart the PC, only a few keys Fn function (Fn + ESC, Fn + F1).

    There is no way (or I have not found a way) for all keys Fn works.

    Someone knows how to fix this?

    Thanks in advance,

    mme000

    I am not sure, but it may be because of the SP1. I installed Vista Ultimate on A200 and stuff all listed (drivers, tools and utilities) from Toshiba support page.

    Contains your Vista DVD facilities SP1 or you install on your own? If you install Vista Ultimate Edition (without SP1) and all the stuff on the Toshiba support site order Instructions of facilities.

    Someone knows how to fix this?

    Do you mean the FN button functionality?

    Well buddy, the question is clear like a Crystal, the buttons FN don t work after the Win XP because the necessary drivers have not been installed.

    But first he must know that it is a series of models Toshiba us.
    I checked the Toshiba page us and unfortunately, I didn't find any Win XP tools or drivers for this model of laptop.

    It seems that you will have to use the laptop without the functionality of the FN button if you want to use Win XP. :(
