Satellite C660 - function keys do not work correctly

I have a strange problem with the help of function keys. When I turn on the laptop the functions work well. However, after 30 seconds of standing on the desk, they stop. The only buttons fuction that work after that are for the volume (up and down). The brightness, the mute button, they all stop working.

I have no idea what is the reason for this and I'll be happy to have your help.

MODEL NAME: Toshiba Satellite C660-1MU
PART NO.: PSC1SE-00600283
OS: Windows 8.1

As far as I know, function keys are controlled by the driver of Toshiba system and key function Toshiba utility and they must be active in the background (to start).
I checked the Toshiba download page, and as I can see, your laptop is not yet supported for Win8.1. What drivers you have installed?

Anyway, you can try to reinstall them.

    Dear all,

    I have problems with my Toshiba Satellite recently bought U940-11 X, serial number 2D015354K.

    1. at each reboot the laptop my keyboard settings are not accurate and symbols and function keys do not work properly. So it is also not possible to enter the bios via F2 after reboot.
    I have to press CTRL + SHIFT to have my keyboard works correctly. I have to do this every time I use my laptop.

    2. the touchpad (Synaptics TouchPad SMBus) does not work after a few minutes. The only thing I can do is plug an external usb mouse. I have also tried using FN + F9 does not work.

    Please, can someone help me on this?

    Thank you!

    > So it is also not possible to enter the bios via F2 after reboot.

    I see that the laptop using Win 8.
    You need to perform a full stop down to access the BIOS.

    See this document. It provides information how to change the settings to access the BIOS:

    + Perform a complete shutdown in Windows 8 +.

    > I have to press CTRL + SHIFT to have my keyboard works correctly.
    Have you checked the presentation of the keyboard settings?
    For me, it looks like you are using wrong keyboard layout settings. Using the key combination CTRL + SHIFT changes between keyboard layouts.

    How do I change this?
    Go to the Control Panel-> regional and Language Options
    A click on the "Keyboards and languages" tab then click on "change keyboards" button. Then in the tree "Installed services" list, select the keyboards you don't want and click 'remove.

  • 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...

  • Re: Satellite P750 - function keys do not work

    I use a Satellite P750. There is a row of 'Function buttons' between my keyboard and display. These buttons no longer work.

    The biggest problem is that I can't activate my wireless. When my net cable is not plugged into the ether, it usually detects wireless network that I can connect to. now it does not detect a network. I know that it is not a problem with the wireless router. When troubleshooting the connection problem, he advises me to use the function key to activate wireless communication.

    I tried to remove and reinstall the system driver added value, the cards flash utility support pilot, as well as my wireless network card driver. and the problem persists.

    I also tried a system restore to a date where I know that these problems were not present. and this does not work either.

    I would greatly appreciate help on this.

    Hello Jason

    In General, resettlement of VAP should help with this.
    If this isn't the case, you can reinstall the OS using HARD drive recovery option. After doing this, you will have factory again and everything should work again.

    This option isn't for you or you don t want to reinstall OS?
    By the way: what operating system do you use?

    Did you take a glance on the European driver Toshiba page?
    Check this path:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-> support download &-> download drivers

    Choose your series of laptop computer and operating system.
    Then you should find different drivers for laptop you.

    In your case, I recommend you to install the common Module first, then Toshiba controls, Hotkey utilities for display and utilities devices.

  • Satellite C660 - keyboard keys do not work

    e, t, u, i, o, z, x, c, v, m, SPACEBAR, move, BACKSPACE, ctrl, 2,4,8,9 and prob some other key.

    Is this a common fault on these models?
    An update of the bios could be remedied? -How do you do this?
    Or do I need a new keyboard?

    Thank you

    (this helps the keyboard screen is terrible)

    p.s. I couldn't find an answer on the forum

    Hello

    I don t think it is matter of BIOS.
    Connect an external USB keyboard and check how it works.
    The same buttons work correctly using external USB keyboard?
    If so, this problem is related to the internal keyboard so the BIOS update is useless in this case, you will need to replace the keyboard in order to solve this problem.

  • Satellite A350-13 a - function keys does not work

    I have the Satellite A350-13. I installed Windows 7 for 2 weeks.

    The function keys does not work although I have installed the Toshiba value added package, which is responsible for the activation of the function keys.

    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.

    Good bye
