  How can I solve my problem?
  Thank you

  Hello

  You must install VAP and Support of Flash Card Utility for the FN keys works!
  Installation of VFR will not help you if you should not install Flash memory card Support utility.

  As far as I know, these two tools are not phone specific, so you can choose the VAP and the published Flash card for example utility for Satellite L500!

  I did it on my laptop and it worked fine!

• Set the screen brightness Satellite Pro 4200

  Hello
  I heard a key combination that makes possible the setting screen brightness.
  Is this true and what is the key combination?

  Yours sincerely
  Riedlz

  Hi Daniel,.

  Normal for thie keys Fn + F7 to increase brightness and Fn + F6 to decrease. But the different laptop models use different key combinations, so I would check your user manual to see which ones is correct for your laptop.

  Kind regards

• Satellite U840-10V - screen brightness problem

  Hello
  I own a U840-10V laptop and I have a little problem with my screen brightness from the first day I got it.
  The fn keys work correctly. When I press the button Fn + F2 or F3 I see small panel brightness adjustment, but values 1,2,3,5,6 and 7 (except 4) seem to have the same level of brightness (the 4th is darker).

  (I had problems with my backlit keyboard as well, but when I reset the defaults in the bios it worked perfect...)

  so is that what someone knows how can I fix?

  I reinstalled the PVAT to a newer version which was suitable for my laptop and windows7 - 64 bit, on the toshiba support site, but I haven't worked out.

  so if anyone can help me I would love...

  Thank you...

  > I have a little problem with my screen brightness from the first day I got it.
  Which is really strange.
  It works correctly when you change the brightness level in the plan directly to settings?

• Satellite A305-S6898 - half black screen at startup

  I bought this laptop in early March and had to return to store due to a problem at startup when half of the screen would be black on the Windows login screen. They ordered me a new I got about 3 weeks ago and I used it for about a week before I had the same problem of a half black screen on startup.

  Now he has been running really slow and there is a time, I've had it freeze on me and my screen turn into a bunch of colored lines.
  I had to reboot in safe mode and run a virus scan just to make sure it wasn't my problem.

  I do not download anything on this computer other than basic messengers and photo editing programs.
  I have a HP MP7170N desktop computer which I use to download everything that seems to work faster than the laptop and I use photo, download torrents programs and store most of my pictures and music on this one and it has only 1 GB of memory compared to this the 4 GB.

  What is the problem?
  Anyone have any ideas as to what I can do.
  I can't really go back to the shop because they give only a grace period of 14 days for returns.

  > I had the same problem of a half black screen on startup.

  Doesn't look good for me it sounds a bit like graphic problem.
  Before contacting a professional Toshiba authorized service provider would be, it would be interesting to know if you have seen improvements after recovery procedure and BIOS updated.
  I think you n t get a recovery disk because you can create it using the verification of software preinstalled Toshiba manual how to create the recovery disk

  If, after installing new check usability of portable and so similar issues still persists.
  If nothing will change it s is strongly recommended to communicate with an ASP.

• Satellite P300-P19: the screen is too bright

  Hi all

  I have a P300-P19, the screen is so bright, his game to LEVEL 17.
  I use FN + F6 to constantly drop it at LEVEL 1.

  Does anyone know how to ensure that it remains at the desired LEVEL?
  And are there other options for contract etc.

  The same brilliant at LEVEL 1, but I hate lights... :-)

  Thanks in advance...

  Rob

  LOL: D if you hate the real bright screens so why buy devices supporting this true Bright screen technology?

  I love these screens I love TV LCD, LCD external PC and laptops...

  However, if you want to use the brightness of the screen constantly down then I recommend change the screen brightness option in Vista power settings.

  Check the HowTo forums area.
  You can find beautiful document called how to manage Windows Vista power management features?

• Satellite L450D - cannot change the brightness of the screen more

  I was wondering if someone could help me. All of a sudden, I noticed that I can't change the brightness on my laptop what so ever. I don't know how long it has been like that but its pretty boring.

  I am currently running Windows 7 Home premium on the laptop just for information. I tried to change in power management and try to change the management of the real power, and pressing fn + f6/f7

  Any help would be appreciated with gratitude

  Brandon

  Hi telford_boi,

  Can you notice other work of Fn keys or just the screen brightness doesn't work more?

  In your case I would try reinstalling the package of value added. It controls the FN keys you want to say and all these special functions. You can download it here:
  http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

  Before installing the latest version, delete the old first, please.

• Satellite A80 - display panel is not working properly

  Hello! I have repair me my Toshiba Satellite A80 laptop because the screen was black with fine lines.

  I did a full restore, formatting the HARD drive and reinstall Windows XP Pro SP3 with the original drivers (as always, I did), but when I installed drivers (nVidia Geforce Go 6600) display, the black rear screen with fine lines...

  I restarted the SO and entered safe mode. All works (slow, but works), and I uninstall the display driver. Turn on the new laptop and SO works (in 'normal' mode) well, except the scroll and videos, which is running slowly...

  Do you know what happens?

  Sorry my bad English-.-'

  Thank your very much for all!

  Best regards!

  Right Satellite A80 is old piece of hardware so it can be difficult to find the right answer to your question.
  Fact is that this old A80 originally shipped with Windows XP SP2 home edition which includes the tested display driver. The same driver is available on the download page of Toshiba.

  You installed this driver?
  If I m remembering well Toshiba recommended installation with SP2 and more late preinstalled OS can evolve into the SP3 version.

  By the way: have you tried to install

  Hello!

  It sounds like a hardware malfunction...
  If you have installed two RAM sticks try it with a single. Check it!

  I m not a technician to laptop but the problem may be with the motherboard, RAM or CPU, but this is my personal opinion.

• Satellite T130 - 10G Touchpad screen pointer gets stuck in random patterns

  Satellite T130 - 10G Touchpad screen pointer gets stuck in random patterns and laptop computer must be restarted to restore functionality
  The center of the causes of "touchpad button" toggle switch by pressing the touchpad pointer to enter a random State like two fingers to zoom.

  Sometimes, he'll be back to normal, but most of the time the computer should be put to sleep or restarted to restore functionality.

  a. I tried turn off all touch pad feature one item at a time and all, he still has some weird random State.
  (Did not try the impossible combination need $ to be interested but went to the 90% level)

  b. I tried disable the touch pad buttons offending and only using the mode tap the buttons and the problem still persist.

  c. Finally, tried bending the entire keyboard instead of pressing the buttons and it has also created the problem.

  This leads me to believe either the power key or flexion of the entire keyboard is originally is

  a. flexion of the touch pad causing the driver getting into a crazy State or require a recalibration.

  b. electrical connections causing the driver enter a crazy State or require a recalibration of bending.

  Note: I have reinstall the latest version of the driver.
  Also: American Toshiba support site that this problem exists in the notebooks of May.

  Also: The touchpad is too sensitive, which makes it very unusable!

  CAry

  Have you tried to install the operating system and check the functionality of the touchpad with the factory settings?
  Recovery image contains tested the touchpad and right and I don't think that helps the driver installation.

• in normal mode, the page disappears off the coast of the right side of the screen. This does not happen in full screen. What can be done to correct the report to the screen to normal screen?

  version 5 loaded on windows 7. all went well for a while. one day, using, normal screen ratio doubled in width; that is half of the page disappears off the screen to the right (on a widescreen). When applied full-screen mode, the ratio is very good. It only happens in normal mode, which is the generally preferred option. I can't determine all means within the program to resize the normal screen. nothing else is affected, only mozilla firefox in normal mode. not when the program is opened from keyboard page is correct for a moment, and then increases the width with 1/2 page dissappearing.

  This problem may be caused by the extension of the toolbar of Babylon 1.1.8

• Satellite A80 135 impossible to reinstall the operating system using the recovery disk

  Hello

  Ive got a laptop 2005 Satellite a80-135 that worked very well until I tried to format the HDD after a performance of Ram boost operation (kingston 1 gb Ram module).

  Just after that, the computer started showing software problems and finally crashed;
  So I decided to reinstall the entire operating system yet. and here, I found the problem I really hope you can help me

  The thing is that I can't format my hard drive to my cd player (with recovery CD in) when the machine is restarted.
  In theory, start the Panel menu should appear after the computer reboot with the C key simountaneously key but nothing happens.

  Thanks in advance
  concerning
  jozze

  Hello

  Simply, the C button the STRANGE start.
  You can also try to press F12 after the laptop has been powered.
  Then the start menu should appear on the screen and then you could choose the ODD (optical disc) in order to boot from the CD.

  If this is not possible, the question is perhaps related to WEIRD malfunction or recovery disk.
  Maybe the CD/DVD drive cannot read the disc properly and so the laptop can not boot from the disc.
  You can try to copy the recovery CD using another computer and might try to start using the copied CD.
  If it does not the problem might be related to the WEIRD failure.

• He can not find the sound controls for Satellite A80?

  Hi, Im a very recent user of a satellite A80, it only 4 days, I played a cd and could not find a graphic equalizer or sound. I enter the area of assistance to Toshiba, but it would not allow me to change the bass and treble, can someone help me with this.
  The cd automatically plays in Windows media player, is there a special program, already installed on the hard disk, CD, or is Windows media player should I use?
  Thanks in advance,
  Deb

  Hi Deb,

  You don't say what version of Windows Media Player you have. However, there will be a graphic equalizer option somewhere, but it can be well hidden.

  I recommend you to download the latest version from the Microsoft Web site.

  The graphic equalizer WMP V9 is available by clicking on an icon in the small window at the bottom left of the screen (if you move the pointer above it is called ' select now playing Options ") which gives a drop-down menu on which the third element is called IMPROVEMENTS. This will be expanded to show the graphic equalizer.

  Of course, you can use other software to read CDs. If you right-click on the CD-ROM item in your workstation
  you will be able to define which program you want to use to play CDs.
