Satellite C55-A5310 - special function key does not

I'm presenting the same report that I sent in support but repost it here in case where I do not get a useful solution.

Yesterday, I reset my Toshiba Satellite C55 A5310 (Part #PSCF6U-0EF066 Serial #9D362065Q). It was the factory reset, then had 10 Windows reinstalled automatically. After the reboot, my special function keys were set back from the normal function of F1 - 12 and didn't find any way to change. Toshiba parameters have been removed after the reboot (not my fault), so I searched in my BIOS settings, but don't found no available keyboard option, then reinstalled the possible necessary drivers to change their back (Toshiba Service Station and HW Setup). HW installation provided the ability to use any special functions or default settings Fn, but after choosing special keys, apply and ok - nothing has changed. I ran the program as an administrator and still no change.

Being only 16 years with only a basic understanding of the functions of the computer I please ask no simple solution not requiring any sort of 'hacking' or adjust the permissions (that made me in the first place) or editing the registry. I'm too scared to do it again and ruin all my laptop operating!

There should be a special function key setting in the BIOS.

Installation of HW is for Win7. Replaces the Toshiba system parameters, you need Toshiba system driver installed for it to work. It looks like you may have installed Win7/8 drivers/utils in Win10.

    What the solution to this problem?

    > Function keys does not work although I have installed the toshiba value added package, which is responsible for the activation of the function keys

    Next to the VAP (value added package) you need to install the Flash Utility card support!
    Card Flash utility support controls the keys FN and not the VAP! But VAP is also needed.

  • Function key does not work on Satellite L50-B-1 q 0

    I bought a new computer notebook "toshiba satellite L50-b-1 q 0' and I changed SO Win8 64 bit--> Win 7 64 bit.
    I installed all the drivers and the pc is running, but the only problem is the function key.
    The value of added driver package is installed, but is at - it another way to solve this problem?

    Thank you
    Marco

    Hello

    Please check if you can change the settings on the special function key mode in the BIOS.
    Usually this option allows you to use the function keys without pressing the FN key.

    Play with this setting and don t forget to save the changes to the BIOS.

    Also ensure that the BIOS is already up-to-date and the VAP has been properly installed.

  • Satellite A200-10N (PSAE3): Fn key does not work after upgrade to vista any time

    After upgrading Vista-Home - Premium--> Vista Ultimate shortcut with the fn keys does not work, for example Fn + F6/7 (brightness).

    New value pack installation has not been successful.
    Moreover, after upgrading the drive to DVD from Toshiba is default, too.
    Who can help?

    I didn't try any update on my A200 but you can try to follow: install Vista using recovery media delivered. When Vista starts for the first time go in Panel and you can find Add/Remove Programs option. Remove all the stuff designed by Toshiba.

    When we remove everything, making Vista upgrade. After finishing Vista upgrade install all the stuff of Toshiba designed by order of specific facilities starting with added value package. Check please the download page if all of these tools and utilities are available.

    As far as I know all the tools and utilities are designed as universal tools and I can't imagine that there is a difference between the version of Vista ultimate or premium tools.

    DVD player is part of the image of the installations only and I can imagine that upgrade installation has changed something, but the upgrade procedure is responsible for this. I don't see any connection to Toshiba.

    As I said I don't have a CD to upgrade, but if I find one I'll try to test it on my Vista (Premium) preinstalled A200-1CR.

    Bye and I hope that you report your experiences with the Vista upgrade again.

    Hello:

    The Intel HD graphics card appears under the category of display cards in Device Manager or a Standard VGA adapter is displayed.

    Normally when the brightness of the screen is stuck on max and you cannot change it,'re missing you the driver from the chipset, the graphics driver, or both.

    Make sure that you have installed the Intel chipset installation and restart utility as well as the Intel HD graphics driver.

  • Satellite U920T - function keys does not work after update to Win 10

    Hello, good morning / evening...

    I use (U920T satellite) and recently updated my Windows 10 Tablet
    but after that, the function keys, volume, brightness, key FN and even the backlight does not work anymore!

    I tried to restore the system and update the driver software but nothing has worked...

    I use these keyboard shortcuts all the time and now it's really hard without them!

    What is the problem? What should I do?

    The problem is that U920T satellite is not listed as Win 10 support unit and, therefore, drivers earn 10 Toshiba and software that controls the FN keys is not released.
    But as far as I know using the FN keys, system of Toshiba and the Support of Flash Card Utility driver must be installed.

    For all Toshiba units win 10 supported, the drivers can be downloaded from this page:
    http://win10upgrade.Toshiba.com/swup...SPX?region=TEG

    Maybe you can try the drivers released for other models of portable Win 10 supported...
    I'm not sure if the software will be compatible with your model of U920T, but its certainly worth a try...

  • 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

  • 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.

  • The function key does not work on Satellite A300 (PSAG4E)

    Hello!

    I have laptop Satellite A300-PSAG4E
    I had installed sp3 WinXPPro on it. All great, but some problems with keys appeared.
    First - 6 functional keys above main keyboard (1 - light (?), 2 - multimedia player (?), 3 - play/pause, 4 - stop, 5 - prev, 6 - then) just change light when they pressed, but in OS, there is no action.
    Second - by pressing the Fn key and, e.g. F2 cause no action

    All drivers and programs has been downloaded and installed from toshiba support center. Should what information I provide to solve this problem?

    Hey,.

    What you mean exactly if you write about the replacement of the lamp if you press the buttons of enlightenment? Change the color or what's happening exactly on the laptop?
    Normally the buttons of the illumination and the XP to Toshiba control controls pilot, utilities, etc.

    Using the FN + F2 key combination you can change between the profiles of different powers. Therefore, you need Toshiba Power Saver that can be downloaded on the page of Toshiba. It s really a tool where you can adjust the power and cooling settings.
