Satellite A665 - 14G - FN key does not

Hello

I recently bought a Satellite A665 - 14G, everything worked fine.
Then suddenly the day after the date of purchase, the keyboard was not turned on.
So I pressed FN + Z combination keys, and nothing happened.

I tried to press the other key FN combinations and none worked.
So I'm assuming that the FN key no longer works.

What could have caused this and how to restore its functionality?

Hello

Do the other FN + F keys work correctly?
For example, FN + F6, FN + F7 and so on. ?

If so, then the FN keys are OK and I don't think that lighting has been disabled.

Usually in the BIOS, you can enable and disable the lighting.
Check it!

But if the other keys FN don t work, then you must reinstall the VAP (value added package) and Flash memory card Support utility.
These two tools can be downloaded from the Toshiba driver page.

    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.

Some days she turns on automatically, but when it doesn't. We are stuck, I tried to look into the display properties, but nothing here to try n force both screens light up. Help

    Hello

    Also try switching to the external device settings Intel. You can find it under Advanced display settings. I also recommend you to reinstall the TOSHIBA utilities. I'm not 100% sure but it may be responsible for the function FN + F5.

    Also check Toshiba HWSetup under the view tab. Activate LCD + analog RGB option.

  • Satellite L505-13D - Fn key does not work

    Key Fn - 1 does not work with any service of Toshiba, only with windows keys, this happened after some windows critical updates (win 7 64 bit)
    2. I have not found my cell phone ' number series or in the site Web of Toshiba part number.

    Please can someone help me
    Thank you

    Hello

    The FN keys are controlled by the Support of Flash memory card utility.
    You will need to reinstall this tool.
    But also the VAP (value added package) must be reinstalled.

    I recommend first of all remove the system from the Flash and the PPV card.
    Then restart the device and clean the registry with CCleaner.
    After that, you need to install the two tools VAP and Flash memory card Support utility

  • 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.

  • Satellite L735-103: one key does not work after BIOS update

    Hello

    I got a Sat L735-103, part no: PSK0CE - 00N0OUEP and I download the bios for this pc, toshiba Web site.
    I have updated bios with no problem, but now a realization thatm a key (the key located in the good of "* f ' and 'z') of the keyboard does not work.
    I have a plate with windows and linux, and the result is the same.

    Maybey I need to go back to the old bios, but in the toshiba Web site only have a bios download: (.)

    Hello

    Somehow, I can't believe that this button malfunction has something to do with the new BIOS.
    Have you noticed the anomaly key immediately after the update of the BIOS?
    You have default BIOS? If not, access the BIOS by pressing F2 when starting the laptop.
    Here, you can set default BIOS and then save the changes.

    If this is not enough, I would recommend contacting the Toshiba ASP because the technician must check whether the button is defective. In this case, replace the keyboard. The technician would be able to downgrade the BIOS as well and could check if it of really a BIOS issue.

  • Satellite Pro L100 - FN keys does not work

    When I press Fn + F5 to switch between my LCD and an external monitor, nothing happens. Do not see all the windows appear on my screen to display the current mode of the screen (LCD or external) while I'm activating/deactivating keys.

    By pressing Fn + F1 (function of the white screen) also does nothing.
    However, the brightness & related Fn + sound combinations work.

    It seems as if a utility somewhere does not work.

    Please notify.
    Thank you.

  • Satellite M40 - Fn + F8 key does not

    Hello comrades toshiba owners and peoples. Once I was using my laptop (M40-SF300E) and I accidentally pressed Fn and the key F8, which is supposed to turn off my wireless. He has worked all too well. Now the Wireless does not resume if I press Fn + F8.

    I managed to turn it on by flipping the switch in front of the computer running manually the wireless on. But when I turned my computer off and turn it back on again, or if I it hibernates and then turn the again the wireless is turned off automatically. I wish it were automatically on when I turn on the computer again as it was once that of the right of the box.

    PS: Anyone know if there is a updated firmware for the DVD writer read or write 16 x DVD?

    Thank you, Matt.

    Hello

    After use of the WLAN connection you should always disable with the FN + F8 key combination. Stop it with the wireless antenna switch.

    The issue you described is very strange. I tested it with my Tecra and if WIFI is on I can use the sleep or hibernation mode, but after waking up the WLAN is automatically enabled.

    Have you ever tried to use the System Restore tool to restore the operating system before the date.

    I put t believe that some firmware can change the write speed of your drive. As far as I know he is technical issue and you cannot force the mechanic to work faster. Firmware is good if you have problems with the empty media.

  • Satellite A200-1AX function key does not work do not

    Hey all

    I have installed XP a few weeks back and updated the bios to the xp version
    I didn't like it and I went back to vista but now my function does not work.

    I press and press the screen brightness but controls no longer appear and I have to use manually with my mouse or via the mobility Center
    is it because of the bios? I downloaded the new bios for vista and now it says that the rom space is full and closed unexpectedly

    What should I do? Help much appreciated

    Hello

    The problem is that you must update the BIOS to the XP version if you want to use all the features of the laptop on this laptop.
    After installing XP, you must update the BISO XP, and then you install all the drivers Toshiba XP available and public services.

    This should help.
