Hello

You are right!
The update of the BIOS could solve this as mentioned in this document from Toshiba:

  • Satellite C660 - keyboard does not work but the Num and caps lock shift are on

    I have a Satellite C660 which was working fine this morning. When I came home from work and he turned, the keyboard does not work and therefore can not enter my login information.
    The Num and caps lock shift are turned on.

    Any ideas on how to solve this problem?

    Hello

    You are able to disable the CapsLock and NumLock?
    You can access the BIOS by pressing F2 by turning on the device?

    If this does not work, I would recommend checking an external USB keyboard.
    If the USB keyboard would be functions, then this means that the internal keyboard is defective and must be replaced.

  • Satellite C660 keyboard does not

    My keyboard has stopped working and after trying different things I've read in other forums I've went ahead and replaced it. New keyboard was working perfectly until now that all came back but slightly different...

    Original keyboard wouldn't let me type any numbers and letters, v, b, n, f, g, h, r, t, y, were dead, as well as the entire line of F1 to F10. The new keyboard worked perfectly, but now the mouse pad does not work and I get extra letters when I type 'R', I get r5y78 instead... ""vm"rather than m and fh rather than h...

    I don't know if it's a motherboard problem, but it's very strange that the usb keyboard and mouse work fine however new keyboard worked fine for about a week and now I use USB keyboard again...

    Any suggestions?

    Laptop model: Toshiba Satellite c660
    OS: Win 7

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    If the external USB keyboard works correctly, the keyboard controller should be OK. So I don't think his problem of motherbaord.
    I guess the new keyboard is too bad and you will need to get another try and you need to replace the keyboard once more.

  • Satellite C660 - keyboard does not work

    Hello world

    I've recently updated the BIOS to version 1.60 on my PSC0LE C660-02300JEN (1 year) and the keyboard doesn't work well at all and sometimes stops working completely, making it unusable (I write on an external USB keyboard.).

    There was a recurring problem, a few months before I updated the BIOS with the strike being delayed or does not respond, sometimes when you type, but for the most part, it still worked.

    So I've updated the BIOS, as suggested, and I get the following problems:

    The space bar is either not responding or when you press + 2 written or +++ again and again until I stop it by pressing the SPACEBAR again.

    None of the numbers works.

    Sometimes the entire keyboard no longer works and none of the keys of a reaction.

    I tried solutions:

    Remove the battery.

    cleaning the keyboard to get whatever it is dislodged out under the keys.

    Reinstall the version 1.60 of the BIOS.

    I'm not sure what to do next and really appreciate the advice and help before I try to get the keyboard replaced. It would be nice to get an opinion before I gain for a fix.

    Really welcome responses.

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    I think that this problem of keyboard is not related to the BIOS update not to other software.
    Is that you can use the external USB keyboard as you said above this means that the BIOS is ok and also the functions of controller keyboard correctly

    This means that the problem is related to a malfunction internal keyboard. I have no explanation why this happened after the update, but it could be just a bad luck

    In my view, the problem can be solved by the replacement of keyboard.

    Anyone know why the keyboard does not work sometimes?

    On this virtual path, it is not easy to give you a precise answer, especially if it happens sometimes and I think that you need professional help with this.

  • Satellite L500 - keyboard does not work

    Hello

    I have Vista L500 with a dead keyboard. This machine has not been abandoned or anything it is spilled on it. I plugged USB keyboard external that works. The laptop keyboard does not work. I flashed the BIOS, update drivers, held shift for 10 sec (read on another forum), reset computer, check the updates of Windows Vista and ran 3 checks of Virus.
    Everything is perfect, just no keyboard?

    What should I check? What is a motherboard problem?

    Thanks for any help :)

    Hello

    Can enter you the BIOS (F2 key) with internal keyboard?
    If it isn't the internal keyboard seems to be defective and must be replaced

    I don t think you can do more. I mean you've tried everything what is possible and if an external keyboard works the installation of the OS should be ok.

    The keyboard can be ordered and replaced from an authorized service provider. Do you know how to contact the guys?

  • Satellite A505-S6980 - keyboard does not properly

    Hello, here is a brief description of this aweful problem I have on my 2 month old A505 S6980.

    As I tried to install Ubuntu, I was restarting windows 7 starts, a screen came to ask me to choose what operating system I want to start, everything seemed normal, but the keyboard was dead, I couldn't choose any.
    I used the power button to restart, but then it would start just after the BIOS loaded, a black screen with a cursor blinking in the upper left for a few seconds, then a beep FORT comes out continuously (beep beep beep beep...) and nothing loads.

    I have attached a USB keyboard and it worked... after many attempts to boot from USB or CD, I managed today to see that the problem seems to come from the keyboard.

    In fact, when I press the letter 'r', he wrote "r4".
    y = y6 [backspace]
    / = /0

    The keypad is nuts, 5 active / disable the Numlock. When you press 2 twice he wrote 52.
    The arrows write numbers...
    Some Fkeys does not as well...

    I bought this laptop only 2 months ago of Lebanon and just now, I am in France. I like there is no people of Toshiba in France who can fix things, except in Paris, that will be quite a chore!

    Any ideas?

    Thank you!

    Hello
    Have you tried to pick the operating system with external keyboard? I think, there is a problem with windows mbr (master boot record) which has corrupted by Ubuntu. Try to make the recovery of the system from the hard drive, but I guess it's already gone

  • Re: Satellite L350-145 - keyboard does not properly

    Hello

    I came here hoping that someone might be able to help.

    Suddenly, some time ago my keyboard started to behave a bit strange. The arrows of the cursor type letters rather than direct me to the top or the bottom of a page (letters hkl instead of captiti, of left and right that will take the arrow to the left will take back you a space but only after type h). The zero on the numeric keypad is always followed by 3 (03). The z moves to the (invisible) to somewhere else on the page and you must use the touchpad to get back to your place and often using theshift key for the CAPITALS can create chaos as you continue to type without realizing that you're somewhere else on the page.

    It's starting to really annoy me. Scroll to my itunes is a disaster - I am always taken to artists starting on the letter k!

    Someone suggested an electrical short-circuit on the keyboard, but I don't know what I should do to solve this problem, if this is indeed the problem. Can anyone help? Oh yes, one? is always followed by a p and / is also followed by p and -always followed by a w.
    I have plugged and used a USB keyboard and everything works fine so I know it's the laptop and not the operating system.

    your in great hope!

    Thank you
    Jennifer

    PS - I'm not that tekkie so simple tips you know would like to thank - I have no idea what a BIOS is!

    Thanks again

    Hi Jennifer,.

    > I have plugged and used a USB keyboard and everything works fine
    So the case is clear: your internal keyboard is faulty and you need a new. As you wrote, if an external keyboard is working properly, it s not related to the operating system.

    In my opinion, you should contact the closest service provider authorized in your country. These guys you can get a new keyboard and they can trade for you. If your laptop is under warranty, the repair is free and if not, the keyboard isn't so expensive.

    Here is a list of all ASP s:

  • Re: Satellite C660 - 29G does not detect wireless networks

    Hello.

    I own a SATELLITE C660 - 29 G PSC1LE, bought in Spain.

    Once shaped my development pc, I installed Windosws 7 64-bit.

    As I lost the DVD attached to the purchase of the laptop, I have downloaded all the drivers for my model based on the Toshiba site

    I installed all the drivers and the thing is that the wireless card is most recognized. I can´t see WiFi available.

    I connect to the laptop with a cable to get access to the internet and it works properly.

    Could you please help me?
    Thank you.

    You can first test what is the status of the WLAN card in Device Manager?
    Wireless network adapter installed and registered correctly?

    If yes do not forget the wireless network card is enabled.
    Please check and post comments.

  • My Satellite C660-1UJ does not start

    Hello people,

    My laptop Toshiba Satellite * c660-1uj starts up.

    It does nothing when I press the powerbutton.
    When I connect the poweradapter I hear a clicking sound, as it is with or without the battery and I also see the light (led) battery flashes green.

    I think it has something to do with my motherboard, but I'm not sure.

    I would like to be sure before you buy a new.
    Does anyone know where the problem is and how to fix it?

    Thanks in advance.

    Kind regards

    Sjoerd

    > I think it has something to do with my motherboard, but I don't know.
    Yes, I think that this problem could be related to problems of motherboard.
    But this would be the worst case, given that the new motherboard is very expensive part I gues guarantee is not valid?

    But why you put the memory t-test? Faulty RAM memory may prevent startup laptop and power. Replace the RAM module is not very difficult.

    Of course, you would need to buy new modules for verification, but maybe you could visit some technicians computer/laptop to downtown who could test the device with new RAM modules.
    In this case it would be pointless to buy the parts for testing purposes only.

  • Satellite A60: keyboard does not work, the recovery DVDs cannot run

    Hello

    I have a serious problem with my A60: the keyboard no longer works. I tried many solutions and the last of them, recovery with the Recovery DVD - ROM product does not work, because I can't use the keyboard!

    When the screen with the 3 choices, I have no opportunity to respond.
    Someone has an idea?

    Thanks a lot for your answer.

    They keyboard might not be the problem, or it may not be connected properly to the motherboard the best thing to do is to take it to a service center, it should not cost you anything, if it is still under warranty... but if it's just the keyboard and your laptop is out of warranty then it should cost more than 100-200... can't say how much exactly, because I have no idea.

  • Satellite C660-2EL does not start

    Hi guys,.

    After a few days full of frustration here I am.

    I am working on a friends Satellite C660-2EL
    He was stuck in the endless loop of boot Win 7 and would not be recovered by any means.

    So I decided a format was the way to go.
    After the format using partition magic everything's fine.
    I reinstalled Win 7 and the installation was also fine. Once the installation is complete, and it's a reboot that I decided to jump into the BIOS and change the order of boot if I put the CD Drive first. If after changing the settings and then save and quit this crap won't start at all now, no CD HD or anything else.

    The toshiba screen flashes upward, but when I hit F2 now it freezes just tell to get into Setup.
    When I try to hit F12 the screen goes back to the blinking cursor.
    If I press anything I get the white screen with the cursor.

    I saw a video on you tube to reset the CMOS, I tried it work with no luck.

    Any ideas guys?

    Hello

    You want to say you have a cursor blinking in the upper left corner and the unit does not start CD or HARD drive?
    The blinking cursor is above all a sign of failure of the HARD drive.

    I recommend that you check the HARD drive with the help of a tool (freeware) called Drive Fitness Test.
    This tool creates a bootable disk that scans the HARD drive for malfunctions.

    If the HARD drive's fault, it be replaced

  • Satellite C660-268 does not start, no start screen

    My laptop Toshiba Satellite C660-268 was installing updates, then it froze for half an hour, I decided to force quit by pressing the power button.

    I tried power, portable could not wake up, I can hear the fan but screen is not black, no post/splash screen (Bios screen), turn on the led goes for a few seconds and then turn off. I tried to press the important function, but nothing could make my laptop boot or stay on. Please,

    I need your help in order to remake my boot laptop

    I think that some of the material died during update installation.
    From my point of few, it was simply bad luck that this error occurred during the update of the system.

    There is only one real solution: the troublemaker should be found and replaced.

    Theoretically, this issue can result from memory problems, but also the failure of the motherboard. The RAM modules are not very expensive and where the RAM is faulty, the fix is not a big problem.

    But in case of malfunction of the motherboard, the laptop repair could be a very costly affair.

    What could be the next step?
    I think if you have no experience of mainframe, you should seek some professional help and assistance.

  • product A3E87AV HP dv6t keyboard does not properly

    My keyboard on my hpdv6t does not work correctly. Shift pg up, pg down, etc. Someone at - it a solutation for this?

    Wanted to just report back then all would know how I fixed my problem with the keyboard and the mouse.

    I did as you suggested and did a hard reset and that seemed to work for a while until I reconnected it the battery and the wireless mouse, and then I was right there where I started. So, I started all over and made the process of elimanation. First, put the battery and then checked everything, everything was ok, then I added the mouse back and that was the problem. So I went and bought a mouse wired and tried and it was ok too. Thus, it seems that the mouse wireless mГЄlГ with signals and that could be my cell phone or else as my Kindle wifi or iPad and they were near the laptop. I hope this helps others out there who have similar problems. Also a big thank you to my geek friend
