Satellite A660-155 "KEY PAD LIGHTS" is disabled

1 MONTH OLD MACHINE, SOMETHING OR NOTHING?

The word Sam, pad top line touch and all the icons next to power button use to light up.
Now only the power button lights up.

Is there a switch/button I have typo by mistake, or is it a defective machine.

Thank you ideas

Hello

Go to BIOS and check the option called illumination.
This must be enabled.
If it, s enabled in the BIOS, then set the BIOS to the default settings, toggle the option (enabled/disabled) lighting and save changes.
Restart the unit.

  • Satellite A660-155 freezes and needs of startup repair or does not start

    Hello, in the middle of the month of August, I bought a satellite a660-155, PSAW0E-00U00DEN S/N 5A214647K.
    It is registered under warranty until the Aug2011.
    After less than a week, it refused to start.
    I rang support and they recommended that I use the recovery discs to restore to factory condition. I did and spent the next 3 nights reload software and my backup disk data.

    Since then he refuses sometimes to start the hard drive with a relative error that it cannot rfind and then ask which drive to boot from. If I select the hard drive, it starts later. Sometimes when running he crashes and then restarts.

    Last night, after that it had not been used for a few days, I woke up he "sleep" mode. I logged on okay, but then the blue logo 'circly' comes on, spinning away happily, and nothing else (just for logging on the text). After 30 minutes, I pressed the power button to turn off because the cell phone was totally insensitive.
    On commissioning, I got a white screen for 30 minutes, then the Startup Repair option.
    I launched it and check start lasted almost an hour and an hour, then he said, trying to repair. After a few hours, I left and went to bed. This morning, he showed the guest of logon and connected properly, as if nothing had ever happened.

    I lost confidence in Toshiba laptops, (I am responsible for computer SCIENCE) and I've never seen this problem before on a so-called quality machine. I only ise it fot simple e-mail/internet/word documents.

    All I can conclude is that there is little material defective (hard drive) that stops responding intermittently.

    I sent support at 07:00 this morning, but have not had a response.

    Can you help me? This machine needs ideally replace or repair collection, back in working condition 100% reliable. Could someone please contact me to see where I go from here?
    Under the law of consumption, you have a duty to rectify my sad situation, that the flaw exists again.

    Thank you

    Thanks for the info!
    Seems to replace the HARD drive would solve!

  • Satellite A660-18 - Solution for WLAN switch disabled people

    I finally solved this annoying problem, my laptop is a Satellite A660-18

    Out of the box it just wouldn't connect to the wireless network. With the combination of keys Fn + F8 of the report: "Wireless communitcation is disabled, please enable the wireless communication switch.

    Of course there is no such switch, just the FN + F8 key combination. After having tried various forums and technical support, I solved the problem myself.

    The solution is:
    Go to the folder on your c drive "program files\Toshiba\TBS. Then scroll down the list of program files and double-click the file named TBSWireless.exe and hey presto, wireless communication goes on (Amber Light lights on the lower right front of the computer). Now the combination of FN + F8 key it will turn on and.

    Bye to all

    Absolutely great job, Fin_1!

    Thanks for this solution, but I have to say that I didn't notice this problem on my Satellite A660 but it might be useful for other owners A660 :)

  • Satellite A660 - multimedia keys are disordered

    Hi and sorry for my English

    I have a Satellite A660 - 12th and recently after reinstalling windows and all the other drivers (VAP, HW, etc.), multimedia keys, are disordered, so the wireless open windows media, the Toshiba shorcut edge player on/off button on/off switch in the light of the buttons and the touchpad, switch off power switch the touchpad button and light button does nothing , volume +/-works very well. I try to reinstall the driver of the VAP, pilot HW and Flash driver cards and that do not resolve the problem, I also try to reinstall windows, still nothing.
    If anyone can help me, save me, I can not turn on the Recent very frustrating wireless
    Thank you

    > I used Windows 7 Ultimate (no problems with it before)...
    It's logical, because previously you used laptop with factory settings and proper installation.
    Now, you use installation clean to the BONE and who knows how you installed all of the extra stuff.

    In any case the question confuses me, in any case. I can understand that some buttons don t work due to lack of tools but I ve never seen that buttons behave messy. Which is really strange.

    If you have the time and if you want to reinstall Win7 once again, we will send you the right installation order and you should try again.
    What do you think about this?

  • Satellite A660 - FN keys without function

    Hi, once again its me :D

    in any case, I noticed that FN + f keys do not work. I can't lock my computer with him, I just can't cut it with fn + esc, I can't adjust brightness with fn + f6, f7 and so on.

    Any ideas what could be? Function of the lighted buttons work perfectly :) I ve see the thread where the settings button mad crazy go after you install VM workstation but I also solved this problem through your forum (thnx).

    So no idea why the fn + f keys does not? What should I do?

    Thank you in advance!

    Hi Sanka_2,

    Yes, there is a solution here in the forum for the FN keys if you install VMware... As I remember you must change or delete some registry keys.

    Anyway, FN keys are controlled by value added and Flash Cards Support utility package. In your case, I recommend the resettlement of these tools. This means remove older versions, restart the computer and install the latest versions of the official page of Toshiba.

  • Satellite A660 - keys no longer work

    Hey,.

    I had a satellite A660 a few months now and recently, some tactile buttons have stopped working, including utilities eco shortcut programmable, wireless, play/pause, lighting and paved touch power button.

    Which makes it very difficult to use the laptop that I can use is no longer the touch pad, as he will start. I can only use the laptop when I have a mouse connected.

    How can I reallocate these buttons to their roles?

    Thanks in advance.
    Seraj.

    PS. I tried to install the value-added package with no result.

    Hi mark,

    You should try to reinstall Toshiba Value added Package, and Flash Cards Support utility. These tools are necessary for the illuminated buttons and keys FN. Cool it down, that you can download on the official website of Toshiba:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    Install VAP in a first time, and then restart your computer and then install the Flash Cards Support utility. Reboot once more and everything should work again :)

  • Satellite A660 (PSAW3E) - FN keys not working not

    Hello
    I reinstalled my windows 7 64 bit on my laptop Satellite A660 and downloaded most, if not all the drivers on the official site of Toshiba UK.

    Although I do not use the FN keys, keep it bugs me knowing that they do not work.

    So... when I press the fn and none of my keys f1 - f9, they do not do anything, no card flash or anything like that.

    But the touch buttons to the upper work (the eco (I think), wireless, media, pause/start, light, decrease volume and increase volume) when I press them they sound and everything, but no flash cards is (not sure but I think that there is no flash cards for those) However when I press the power button on top of the mouse everything works including the flash ECAD

    The normal keys F1 - F12 function

    Tried to uninstall the pack of value-added and install again (after rebooting my laptop)
    Tried to restart flash cards too
    None of the above worked.

    Sorry for my English, not my language to the House :)

    Thanks for reading,

  • Satellite A660: Comment and a question about button lighting / mute

    Note:

    Hi, I'm the proud owner of a satellite A660-166 (3 days) and I installed everything from scratch on the win 7 pro because I got my laptop with a home (need pro for work) version... I met some problems, but this forum really answered my questions :) Never found such a useful for technical support forum. I wanted to express my gratitude and my support for everything you do for users :)

    Problem: well, this isn't really a problem, more a curiosity... I had a few problems with the key eco, at this time there button lighting / mute was to mute... Thank you guys, I found out what needed to be done, I reinstalled the Flash card software and everything worked properly more the lighting button / mute has been for enlightenment now. I have nothing against that, I prefer it like this, but I wonder how to change that... I found some response on the use of toshiba wireless Assistant and the illumination tab... Because my laptop is fairly new, that I do not have a tab of enlightenment, I was wondering how to change the mute button if I want to?

    Thanks, keep up the good work!

    It's nice to hear that you found answers to your questions here. Many people here trying to help.

    Back to your question: it is not easy to give a precise answer and I really put t know if you can change the settings of a single button. I think it has something to do with the registry entries, but how to change, that's another question.

    If you use this button for lighting ON / OFF, you can use FN + ESC for the mute button so you have two options that can be used with a touch or quick key combination.
    Can you please test and confirm that it works correctly?

  • Satellite A660 - 13p (PSAW3E-01T00PPL) - Upper keys stopped working

    I installed Windows 7 64-bit with all the drivers. Everything worked fine, but recently stopped working the high keys (eco, WiFi, volume, backlight). Allows only a permutation of Windows. Why?

    I reinstalled value-added 1.3.4 package but is not nothing changed

    Sorry for my English =)))

    Hey,.

    I m not Satellite A660 owner but generally if you reinstall package of added value, the bright buttons should start working again. But the most important is that you remove the old version of VAP first, before installing the latest version. You must also run CCleaner after uninstalling to remove old registry keys.

    Last but not least also check the BIOS. In the BIOS Setup you can enable/disable these buttons and illumination.

    Hi vazovsky,

    To be honest I've never seen this icon on my Satellite A660 and I don t have any idea what it could be because it s non-English language. Perhaps you can translate it, that would be helpful.

    And when it is not, what programs you start?

    You must install the Support TOSHIBA Flash Cards and then Toshiba value added package utility.

    By the way: If you want to use clean OS installation you need to install many other drivers, tools and utilities that must be installed on the right the order of installation.

  • Some of the Satellite A660 - 11 M keyboard keys do not work

    Hello

    My Satellite A660 - 11 M keyboard does not work properly. Some keys type, others type the wrong letter/number.
    Replace the keyboard usually solves the problem? Keyboards are available for this model?

    Furthermore, juice was accidentally spilled on it weeks, so I guess that's the cause of the problem.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    Yes, maybe the question is related to the spilled juice.
    I don't think that the replacement of keyboard can help you

    The new keyboard can be ordered from a Toshiba ASP in your country.
