• Satellite M70 - media buttons do not work

  Hi all

  I have been using the Satellite M70 for 2 years now. My OS is XP SP2. The laptop comes with preinstalled express media player. And I still have the Express Media Player recovery CD.

  For the reasons that I just formatted the C drive. This is not the first time that I did. But the last time after reformatting drive C Media buttons are still working fine. This time beside the reformatting, I have updated BIOS (from site Web from Toshiba) to version 1.50.

  Now media buttons do not work. And not more than (browser and CD/DVD buttons) shortcut keys. I tried to reinstall the express media player by booting from the recovery CD and reinstall chose. But the problem persists.

  Are there ways to get the media buttons still work?

  Help would be very appreciated.

  P/S: in case it is because of the update of the BIOS, is there way I can flash back to its original version?

  Hello

  I have the Satellite M70-159 with BIOS V 1.3. I'll try to update BIOS to version 1.5 to see if the same happen on my M70 laptop. I did not Express Media Player, but I will test it with running Windows XP Home edition.

  So. Windows XP Home edition, I can use all the keys with Windows media player. Browser and all media buttons work well. With WinDVD too much work.

  I don't really know why this does not work on your M70. Maybe you should remove all the stuff your laptop and do a clean install EMC and operating system itself.

• Media buttons do not work in Satellite P300-21st using Win 7

  Hello

  After the turning off my laptop, last week, the buttons of media suddenly stopped working.
  The strange thing is that they are flashing all the time, even when the laptop is turned off.

  I downloaded the toshiba Web site VAP (although the version was a 2009 one, if there is a new one for my laptop please let me know. Maybe I can use a VAP, a similar model.
  My system is Windows 7

  the other weird thing is that I have disabled the option of the illumination of the F2 Setup but the media buttons are still on.

  I also tried taking the battery, etc., but nothing

  any ideas?

  Hello

  The VAP is a Toshiba Software and as far as I know, you can use the other version of VAP, which was released for other series of laptop.
  For example, you can use the VAP released for Satellite P500, P750 series or higher.

  But I m wondering why the s button led is always ON even though the lighting is disabled in the BIOS.

  > I also tried taking the battery, etc., but nothing
  It is also my idea unplug the power adapter, remove the battery, hold down power button / stop along 30 sec.
  Then connect the AC adapter and check the functionality of the multimedia buttons.

• Satellite A500-1EE - where to find the 32-bit drivers for Windows 7?

  Welcome!

  I have the Satellite A500-1EE with the 64 bit version of Windows 7 and I need to install the 32-bit version of this system. Is this possible?

  Because I can not find the drivers for 32 bit.

  Hi tosipaw,

  Of course, it is possible and you can install what you want on your laptop, but I put t understand why you want to change to 64-bit to 32-bit OS.
  What are the reasons for that?

  Normally everything can be downloaded here:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

  Your model belongs to the series of PSAR9E and so only drivers 64-bit available.

  If you are looking for all models A500 (without PSAR9E), you will find a large number of drivers Vista 32 bit. Maybe they work and it s worth a try! :)

• Satellite A500-1E4 (PSAR9E) - noisy fan stops is never (BIOS version 1.60)

  Hello from the Czech Republic, I have also problem with noisy fan on my new Satellite A500-1E4 (PSAR9E) (i430M, GT330M) on 64-bit Windows 7 over Office Standard - see http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=46719&start=165&tstart=0.

  Today I have updated the bios to 1.60 (from 1.20) and there has been no change. When the laptop powered to the top of the adapter in all modes the fan is running at 60-70% (sometimes at 90% - my office is perhaps quieter :-(). What laptop power battery in normal fashion fan and high performance race to 60-70% (loud sound) and in the economy mode to 80% (very noisy). It's crazy that in economic mode produce more noise than mode high performance. The CPU temperature is cca. 37-43 C, GPU 48-57. Fans of course never stops and all it's standart office. No intensive work or games. I can't imagine in games.

  Can someone help me please, I'm really helpless. Or this fixes only bios 1.30 and next version not?

  Hey Buddy,

  I think that it of really difficult to say why this happens, but in my opinion you should provide more details about your operating system and drivers.
  Are you running the Toshiba factory settings or you have installed another OS?
  Fan sometimes high activity is due to a different display driver. Have you installed the latest display driver form Toshiba (NOT nvidia)?

  Old BIOS versions, you can get an authorized service provider

• Satellite A500-1GL (PSAR9E) turns itself on at 08:20 every morning

  Hello

  I've had my Satellite A500-1GL (PSAR9E) for a few weeks now and it's great except, that he puts himself on every morning at about 08:20.

  * The machine is * shut down * every night, (hibernation or suspended), usually between 23:00 and 01:00.
  * I was * stop * switch wifi on the case of the machine every night after his stop, (because I was wondering if the problem came from wake-up-on-lan).
  * I've been unplugging all the usb devices on the machine after
  * I have even unplugged my helmet just in case it makes a difference, (it's not)...

  I was leaving the unit plugged in, but there has been no interruption of power any since I got the machine.

  There is no one else at home when this happens, and I have no pets!

  I'm completely puzzled as to why the machine turns on, (and almost exactly the same time each day!)

  Anyone have any ideas here?

  Thank you

• Satellite A100-813 - Express media buttons no longer work after XP install

  Hello

  I have a laptop Satellite A100 - 813 (PSAA8E). After you have reinstalled the operating system (XP), it's on purpose media buttons do not work. I don't have a recovery CD express media when I bought it. When I checked in the Toshiba Web site, it is not available.

  Hello

  For these special buttons, you must install the tools of Toshiba. Did you check that?

  On the Toshiba site I founded the document setup instructions for your laptop and XP. It is a list for recommended order of installation of drivers.
  This means that you will also install Toshiba common Modules, Hotkey Utility, enabling/disabling Touchpad utility, utilities, etc.

• New tab and close tab buttons are not enabled

  Firefox new tab page and close tab buttons are not neabled and do a right-click shows the same functions that is not available.

  Try Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there.
  
  A way of solving problems, which disables most of the modules.
  
  (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

  • You can open the mode without failure of Firefox 4.0 + by pressing the SHIFT key when you use the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
  • Or use the Help menu option, click restart with the disabled... modules while Firefox is running.

  Do not choose anything at the moment, just use 'continue in safe mode.

  To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the shortcut of Firefox (without the Shift key) to open it again.

  If it's good in Firefox Safe mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one.

• I reciently reinstalled windows and now the fence, restore down and minimize buttons are not mixed together.

  I reciently reinstalled windows and now the fence, restore down and minimize buttons are not mixed together. they are indervidual buttons. Have all the updates and service pack installed.

  I saw the screen shot, I think that Aero is disabled, or the Desktop Window Manager Session Manager service is disabled or stopped. Try to run the troubleshooter 'display the Aero effects. " And when firstly, you had the drivers that do NOT support Aero and then updates, Windows does NOT automatically update the settings. You must recaulculate the computer for Aero Performance Index is enabled.

  Or you can see more help on this page, which contains explanations of the Aero and a link to a Web page for downlading an application which solves the problems.

  Hope that helps!

• Qosmio F50 - 10K - multimedia keys are not lit

  According to my topic

  "" Qosmio F50 - 10K - replaced by Qosmio F60-126? ".
  http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=59934&TSTART=0

  I had problems with my laptop, located at the Nvidia 9600 M GT graphics according to Toshiba service. They changed the graphics card with a new one today and so far everything is going very well and smooth. He collapsed again. Time will tell whether or not it returns to his old ways.

  In any case, after I took up my F50 - 10K I noticed that the indicators for media buttons (Play / Pause, Stop, Dolby, etc) are not lit. The buttons work fine, but they are not on. All other indicators (the light bar on the touchpad, the volume light) and the power light work fine. There is a button to deactivate/activate the indicators, but it does not work for media indicators.

  Before giving my laptop to the service of all the indicators were at work. Now, the indicators of media came out. No idea how to re-enable?

  Hi Jwrath,

  I doubt s a hardware problem because they do not work properly and the lit / functions are controlled by added value package. In your case, I recommend reinstall Toshiba Value added Package from the official website of Toshiba:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

  Remove the VAP, restart the computer and install the new VAP software.

  In addition, check the BIOS. I don't know if there is an option for Mr. lighting if so, enable it and that s.

• Satellite P305-S8832 - media buttons do not work with Win7

  Hello friends, wise

  I recently installed two new hard drives (500 GB 7200 RPM OS / 500 GB 5400 RPM DATA) and I did a clean install of Windows 7 Home Premium 32 bit on my 3 1/2 Toshiba Satellite P305-S8832. Everything except the media buttons works well enough.

  I downloaded the drivers from the Toshiba repository, including the installer of the Software for Windows 7 Toshiba and package valued Toshiba. These touch buttons above the keyboard and between the speakers still doesn't work, no light, no response, nothing. I checked the bios.

  These buttons work out of the box with Ubuntu Linux, Windows XP and Windows Vista.

  Any advice?

  Hello

  In General, the multimedia keys are controlled by VAP (value added package) and the buttons should work after the installation of VAP.

  Found the drivers here:

  It seems that there is also a newer version of VAP.
  Check other new series Sat P in order to get the latest version of VAP.

• Satellite A100: Media buttons do not work

  Hello!

  I have the Satellite A100, Windows XP SP2. All the media buttons on the left of the keyboard has stopped working. They worked yesterday, I did not install anything or even shut down the computer since then. They just stop working.

  Can someone help me to fix it?

  Thank you!

  Hello

  I think you should first of all, clean the registry.
  You can use a freeware tool called CCLeaner. It s great. I also use it.

  After removing the old Toshiba control Utility and cleaned the Windows registry reboot once more and install first the common Modules!
  After the installation of common Modules install Toshiba controls.

  Good luck and feedback would be highly appreciated.

  Good bye
