Satellite A500 - 132 illuminated keyboard?

Hi guys

My question is if the Toshiba Satellite A500 - 132 (sold in Slovakia) illuminated keyboard because I do not know if it is or not thank you for the answers.

Hello

As much as I know the A500-132 doesn t supports the backlight on the keyboard.
A500 not all are equipped with the same hardware component and it seems that A500 support common keyboard

See you soon

    If your motherboard has a connector for the backlit keyboard, it should be possible to make such an upgrade.

    Additionally, make sure that you have installed the latest version of the BIOS and added value package.

  • Satellite A500 - 15 h - keyboard backlight doesn't work anymore

    Hello @ all,

    After that install Win7 on my purchased new Satellite A500 - 15 h the backlight for the keyboard no longer works.
    I don't know if it worked before with vista... but if all goes well.

    Lighting is enabled in the Bios. Features (on F1 - F9) controlled by the Fn do not work as well as the tone that has been heard normally by using the function for lower keys / turn on the sound cannot be heard even if the sound signal is enabled in the BIOS.

    I hope someone can help
    Thanks in advance
    giraffe

    I have already installed value added package and updated BIOS.
    Under Linux, the keyboard is also not on.

    Hello

    First of all, you need to get the keys FN working again.
    To do this, you must install the VAP and the Toshiba Flash Cards support utility from the European driver Toshiba page.

    Regarding the backlight on the keyboard;

    Not all laptops are supported the backlight on the keyboard.
    You should check the Z button.
    If the Z button would contain a sign tiny keyboard then the laptop was equipped with backlight on the keypad and it should be possible to activate this using keys FN + Z combination.

  • Satellite A500 - 14L without keyboard lighting, XpressCard and TV antenna

    Hello!

    I bought a Toshiba A500 - 14l there is very little time, and I do not have the keyboard lighting (the manual says that I can activate this option with Fn + Z but it does not work).

    I do not have the antenna for TNT (how to watch TV DTT whithout this?) and I don't have the remote to the Xpress card Format, I just got BIIIGGG remote control.

    I would like to know if all users have this problem? It is not normally! False advertising?
    The after sale service said they do not know if this model have he option!

    Very funny... Toshiba don't know what they sell but in the manual, you can see the keyboard lighting!

    Thank you!

    Thank you

    > Very funny... Toshiba don t they know how to sell, but in the manual, you can see the keyboard lighting!
    I think they know exactly what they are selling, dude. It is perhaps not known to you that there are many different models of laptop computers A500 with a different hardware configuration.
    Not all laptop computers (regardless of which model it is) are equipped with the same material elements!
    You will find different and portable hardware with different price range

    Satellite A500 - 14L seems belongs to the series of PSAM3E and looks that she would support the EXPRESS CARD SLOT, the ATI Mobility Radeon HD 4650 graphics card, HDMI output, tuner TV etc.

    Also, I downloaded the user manual of the Toshiba page and I don t find any info that an antenna would be included in the package!
    Usually, you must purchase separately!
    In user manual you can also find info this remote control is ONLY provided with * some *!

    I think that now everything should be clear to you!

    Did you also install the package of value added? You can download the Toshiba site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    Value added contains TOSHIBA Flash Cards, which provides the Hotkey function.
    That means THAT VAP is required for a particular function like the FN keys.

  • Re: Satellite A500/02J-backlit keyboard upgrade

    Hi all

    I just bought an A500/02J but I would replace the keyboard with a backlit keyboard. I found a backlit keyboard compatible to A500 on ebay, but I wonder if the motherboard on the 02J will allow replacement.

    Does anyone know if this is possible?

    Kind regards

    I can't say with any certainty whether these updates is possible but I n t think so. I mean why Toshiba should offer this motherboard with keyboard without backlight.

    Best thing you can do is to call the Toshiba service in your country and ask for help. They have experience with such things, and I think you will get the answer service guys prober.

    If you discover that the upgrade is possible please let us know. This info can be useful for other owners of A5oo.

    On other sites I read that this problem could be caused by the C2D CPU C4 State but we cannot disable it in the BIOS because there are no options.

    Which driver do you have exactly? You should try the new driver to display on the Toshiba site. The drivers from ATI directly not designed for mobile cards!

    Normally, every game, you can change the screen resolution. There you can adjust it to the native screen resolution.

    This is the case even on my Satellite A210 with installed Win 7.
    In my view there s nothing wrong with that, but it is simply a property of Windows 7.
    The battery power is displayed in percent

    You can use an additional tool like BatteryBar 3.0 in order to display a time...
