Satellite A500 - switch WLAN and the FN keys does not turn the wireless

I have currently problems try to activate the connection Wireless on my laptop. My laptop model is a satellite A500 PSAR9A O2J001. My laptop's physical wireless switch does not work and neither my Fn keys don't work (none of my function keys work not at all). It was awhile I saw an orange light next to my mobile switch indicating it was on, but one day, it's just off. Since then, I was not able to reactivate it after a lot of searching on Google, and this place is my last resort after doing so many things.

Any help or comments would be appreciated, I am very desperate to solve this problem for studies.

Your description is OK but rather general isn't easy to say with certainty what the problem is here.
Is the card properly installed wireless (Device Manager)?
FN keys work in general? You can use other keys FN + Fx? You see flash cards when you press the FN key? If so what options you see when you use FN + F8 (WLAN I think)?

When you move position WLAN communication works and use the FN + F8 to what exactly happens?

  • Satellite L300D - installed XP and now my wifi does not work

    I spent from Vista to XP and now my wifi does not work. I was told that I don't have the drivers.
    Can someone help me? I have a Satellite L300D-01N. Please help me, I don't know much about this kind of stuff.

    Thank you

    You can download drivers Toshiba from here: http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    There is however no driver XP for the L300D. But I found a LAN driver for XP wireless that would work.

    Select:
    Laptop
    Satellite Pro
    Satellite Pro L series
    Satellite Pro L300

    Download and install
    -Wireless Lan Driver Realtek Semiconductor Corporation Windows XP 6.1116.1226.2007

    If this does not work, you can have an Atheros Wireless LAN card. If this is the case, look at the other models for an Atheros Wireless LAN Driver XP.

  • Satellite A500 - software jump issue and eco mode key does not work

    Hi all you guys :)
    I read many forums these days, and my problem is still there.

    I did an update provided with records of 2 updates for Toshiba (Windows 7 on a disk and drivers updated to this OS in the other disk) and the first 2 weeks, everything was ok. Then stopped working the windows media player jump list. The jump of live messenger never worked but good list. I didn't have the will to uninstall them, clean and reinstall. It was just the messenger.

    After media player jumplist that I started looking on the Internet, but nothing has worked, sfc scannow, the antivirus is mse, and I never changed anything. After that, also started to pop-up Windows defender turned off at startup and then also stopped workin the eco mode selection button and the button display to open mediaplayer.
    What can I do?

    I also updated the BIOS and I have the latest Windows.

    Sorry for the long post ;)
    Thanks to all in advance!
    cyaaao!

    Hi mate

    I'm not very well if this problem could be related to an error in Win 7 m.
    But everything looks like it could be the case

    In my case the jumplist will appear when I do a right-click on the IE icon or the Windows Media icon placed in the taskbar on the left side.

    I searched a bit a found this MS Jumplist page and how to handle this:
    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/using-jump-lists-to-open-programs-and-items

    Maybe this could be useful for managing the jumplist.

  • Satellite Pro A-153 C50: F11 function key does not work

    The F11 key where I can spend the sound power switch does not work!
    The other keys work correctly.

    Everyone knows how to restore its function?

    Hello

    You use the special function or Standard F1 - F12?
    The special mode of operation allows you to use special features without pressing the FN key.
    This means that if the special function mode, you must press only F11 to turn the sound on and off. In the case of special function mode is off, you must press FN + F11 to turn the sound on and off.

    You can enable or disable the special function mode in:
    Office-> Office help (in the task bar)-> tools & utilities-> function key

    But I wonder if the F11 key works with other software?
    For example: pressing F11 key while using the Internet browser (internet explore) should allow mode full-screen. You can check this?

    Keyboard F11 key is maybe defective and so the sound ON / Off function does not work

  • Laptop HP 15-R203tx: brightness (f2 and f3) function keys does NOT work

    Model - HP laptop laptop 15-R203tx

    OS - Windows 8.1 Pro 64-Bit

    Graphics - Intel HD 5500 integrated

    Dedicated NVIDIA GeForce 820 M

    I updated the drivers for my also well-integrated dedicated graphics card but still my function keys f2 and f3 for brightness control does not work although all other keys work.

    This PC comes with the BACK, but I started it with 8.1 Windows Pro 64-bit.

    Hello

    Well that does not explain why your f2/f3 keys do not work as you have only the Microsoft base driver installed - if the Intel driver has already been installed Ok, this may indicate a hardware problem.

    What happens if you try to install the Intel HD 5500 driver directly from Intel - it's the 2nd file in the list on the following link.

    https://Downloadcenter.Intel.com/search?keyword=Intel%C2%AE+HD+graphics+5500+for+5th+generation+Intel%C2%AE+core%E2%84%A2+processors

    If it installs Ok, reboot the laptop and let Windows fully load for a few minutes before checking it in.

    Kind regards

  • Qosmio X 300-130 and Linux - GPU fan does not turn

    Hello

    I recently I changed my windows form of os for linux... and I realized that my gpu fan not spinning.
    eventhought it spinned in windows.

    When I turn on the pc two fans that the processor and the fan GPU continue until I connect to linux and then the GPU of the fan stops... and the GPU GET VERY HIGH TEMPERATURE

    Please it is urgent

    What do you recommend?
    I think it is driver related.
    THANKS IN ADVANCE :)

    Qosmio X 300-130 (PQX32E)

    Hello

    Use the following command to get information from the ACPI:
    dmesg | grep - I have fan

    From my point of view of the rare, the fans are controlled by ACPI and this allows to work with the BIOS to monitor the temperature of the core.

    The different distributions like Debian or Ubuntu Linux supports a fancontrol script (the latter can be downloaded separately) that can be configured to handle the speed of the fan.

    In addition I would also recommend to upgrade the Linux kernel if possible.

  • Touchpad and right & left keys does not not on Satellite 350 d - 12 M

    This is my first post so I hope someone can help out me. I had to open my laptop because my power connector moved inside my laptop and I was unable to load the machine.

    I opened the case very carefully and repositioned the power outlet. When I put the machine back together right or left buttons or the touchpad would work. I never even touched anything around the touchpad.

    I just lifted the upper right of the case so that I could slot of the power supply in place.

    Any help would be really appreciated.
    I tried FN and F9 to see if it would open the touchpad. I also tried to take out the battery and pressing the button for 30 seconds, none of them worked (I read this in other forums).

    Hello

    > I have opened the case very carefully and repositioned the power outlet. When I put the machine back together right or left buttons or the touchpad would work. I never even touched anything around the touchpad.

    I guess that the touchpad worked correctly until you have opened and taken apart the laptop.
    Is this good?

    Well, I put t know why the touchpad buttons don t work, but in my opinion you damaged/disconnected something during the disassembly procedure and so the buttons don't work now.

    I wouldn't recommend disassemble this laptop again because as you can see many other parts can be damaged or affected and this is why I recommend to contact a technician from mobile who could check this and might solve your problem from touchpad button.

    Best regards & good luck

  • Satellite P300D - 11 H Bluetooth & Bluetooth FN key does not

    I recently tried to send something to my laptop with bluetooth, but it did not work.

    So I looked for an update of the last program I had installed the Bluetooth Manager v4.

    I got a new v5 version but it will not install, they informed that I need to remove the old version of my computer, I did.

    Now the problem is when I try to install v5 that he always told me to remove bluetooth stuff which are attached to my laptop

    The thing is that I do not use the keyboard or a Bluetooth mouse.

    Can sumbody help me with this?

    The Device Manager shows any kind of Bluetooth devices now?

  • Windows 7 does not turn off wireless, when I plug in the LAN. No priority of LAN to insert.

    My HP desktop computer: when I connect my LAN cable, the wiresless lights yet.  I have to uncheck - unplug my wireless (wifi), and then LAN takes over.

    But it's temporary. Turn off / on the computer again, my wireless is on (a priority) although I still have the network cable is connected.  Whenever I use my PC I must stop first of wifi wireless (left click on a small scale for turn-off). How can I get LAN priority in Windows 7?

  • Windows 8 pro activate windows, the product key does not

    Windows 8 pro installed on a new hard drive very well. now the pc settings come to activate windows and my product key does not work. any further suggestions?

    You upgraded to Windows 8, but did not have an earlier version of Windows Installer (error 0xC004F061)

    If you see error 0xC004F061 when you try to activate Windows 8, this means that you are using a product key for an upgrade of Windows 8 version and a previous version of Windows wasn't on your PC when Windows 8 was installed. To install a Windows 8 upgrade version, you must already have Windows 7, Windows Vista, or Windows XP installed on your PC.

    If you have formatted the drive until the upgrade of Windows 8 version has been installed, you will not be able to use your upgrade product key to activate Windows 8. To activate Windows 8, you will need to install your previous version of Windows, and then reinstall Windows 8. Help with the activation process, contact technical support.

  • Satellite C660-2EL - Wireless n and the F8 function key does not show

    Satellite C660-2EL - Wireless works sometimes, but mostly not. Wired connection is ok. When does not not Fn 8 does not appear and the wireless card does not appear in the devices.
    Pilot was handed in place.

    Have tried reset default and many other things - yesterday was working - light today and not...

    Help!

    Hello

    If the wireless network adapter does not work or its lack in the device, the FN + F8 key combination Manager would not work.
    So the problem is your wireless network card.

    The WLan card driver is missing or malfunctioning of the WiFi chip.
    The device uses the Realtek RTL8188CE WLan card.
    Have you installed the chip RTL8188CE WLan driver?
    Make sure what you've done!

    Otherwise, if the WLan card is not listed in the Manager (no unknown device or Ethernet controller) devices marked with yellow exclamation point I guess that the module is faulty.
