Satellite L300D-135 - some keys stop working after a few minutes

Satellite L300D-135 (PSLC8E-02P013EN) portable model, boot cold keyboard is fine. As things warm up the keys R and there stop responding as do 7890 keys. May be heat related.

The keyboard has been replaced, old and new are doing the same thing, so it's more like a controller issue. Have flashed the latest BIOS as saw talk of the keyboard problems in one of the versions of the BIOS. The end user has been tolerated for a few months, but now, Dyslexic child needs to use the laptop and cannot deal with dead keys.

Any ideas? Laptop is 2 weeks out of warranty and user end just asked me to take a peek, problem has been around for the warranty period.

Hi Phil

Can you notice the question even if you connect an external keyboard or this only happens with an intern?

I can t imagine it has something to do with the heat, but if you want you can clean your laptop using a jet of compressed air. This could blow out the dust from the cooling fans.

If this isn't the case, you must replace the entire keyboard. Normally it of not so expensive so Don t you worry not about it. You can also ask your ASP if they can repair as a gesture of goodwill.

  • Some keys stop working after the update of the Sierra (only for a specific profile)

    After update to Sierra my keyboard worked well for a while.  But at random, U I O P J K L keys stopped working.

    The bug only shows 1 profile. If I create another profile new profile keyboard works very well.

    Anyone know what that sometimes caused that and with the fix is?

    Hello ExcelsiorPath,

    After reviewing your post, it seems that several keys do not work on a single profile. This looks like an option that may have been changed.  I recommend you to read this article, it may be able to help solve the problem.

    If the other keys do not work

    You may have accidentally set an option that changes your keyboard works.

    • Choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, click Accessibility, and then click keyboard. Make sure that slow keys is turned off. If slow keys is enabled, you will need to keep a key longer than usually before it is recognized.

    • Choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, click Accessibility, and then click mouse and Trackpad. Make sure that the mouse keys is turned off. If the mouse keys is enabled, pressing the keys in the numeric keypad moves the pointer instead of entering the numbers.

    • Choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, click keyboard, and then click input methods. Select "Show the menu in the menu bar." Open the menu entry, then make sure that the correct keyboard layout is selected.

      To display the keyboard layout, click keyboard, and then choose "See the viewers for emoji keyboard symbols in the menu bar."

  • Satellite A300 - some keys stopped working after downgrde from Vista to XP

    Hello

    Excuse me for my bad English. I have a problem with my Satellite A 300 PSAG4E-0450. Operating system went from Vista to XP. Easy keys, keys shortcut and illumination stopped working. All the drivers have been downloaded. I tried to find it in Control Panel-> Toshiba controls. I changed to bright power, but this isn't work. If I try to turn it off, I see a window with "choose order".

    What can be wrong?
    Thanks for your help.

    Hello!

    As far as I know, the lighting can be disabled and enabled in the BIOS.
    Check it!

    To shortcut keys, you should try to install the Toshiba controls and utilities hotkey.

  • Satellite L300-1BW - wireless connection stops working after 10-15 minutes

    Hey!

    Just brought me a new laptop. Sound of the Toshiba Satellite L300-1BW. However, I've encountered a problem. I can connect to my home network wireless fine. However 10-15 minutes after browing internet, my just wireless connection will stop working.

    I know full well it's not my Netgear because it work fine on all the other my computer.

    IM wondering if anyone could possibally help me. I would be grateful anyhelp.

    Thank you.

    Edit - seems work correctly with my laptop not charging. However when the power adapter is in charge of the laptop, it work for 10 minutes then stop.

    Hello!

    If you use Windows Vista, you must disable the WLAN energy saving function. You can find it in the Vista power management options. Check it!

    In addition, you should try to update the driver WLAN and the BIOS. The two you can find on the Toshiba site:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-online downloads support & -online Download Driver

    Last but not least, I would recommend that you read hundreds of discussions on the problems of WIFI. You will find so much tips and tricks how to increase the WLAN functionality and troubleshooting.

  • Why the screensaver stop working after a few minutes and then go to the black screen permanently?

    I use Vista Home Premium with Explorer 8. My screensaver always works for about 5 minutes and then stops and goes to a black screen. Still black screen and my screen saver active ever again until I have move my cursor to display the page I was on. The screen saver does not available parameters except to set the number of minutes, I want to start. I ran antivirus, anti-spyware-malware etc the gamet, but anything is wrong with the screen saver. I am blocked and never had this problem before. Anyone know what is happening, what is the cause and how to fix this?

    If you changed your diet plan or changed some settings for your course, it can happen.

    (1) go in the bottom right of your screen and click on the battery icon and click more power options (assuming that you have a laptop. If you don't go to the control panel (Classic view) and go into power options)

    (2) on your package (indicated by a blue dot next to it), click on change plan settings and navigate screen however turn it off for a long time, you want it to be before he turns off the screen.

    I do not recommend messing around with drivers, because when I did, it messed up my screen and ended up back where I was before she has nothing (sorry James). of couse I messed up a little and the only real problem was the catylist control center has disappeared, and when I tried to fix this, I came across problems (it looked like a safe mode without the mode without failure of words on the corners)

  • AERO Peek stopped working after a few adjustments with HP to get my Photosmart printer to work

    I just upgraded a fairly new computer of mine from Vista to Windows 7 Professional.  The upgarde went well however the AERO Peek stopped working after a few adjustments with HP to get my Photosmart printer to work.  I tried to make the show thumbnails of running programs to display in the taskbar with no luck.  Any suggestions?

    Hi Lisa52465,

    (Already responded to dadams26 in a separate thread and it fixed the problem beautifully).

    Have you tried to run the Aero Troubleshooter? If this is not the case, try this:

    1. open the control panel

    2. go in the system and security category

    3. go to the Center of the Action

    4. click on the link to solve common computer problems

    5. click on appearance and personalization

    6. Select Aero

    He must either correct the errors problem or the State to determine the cause.

    If the Aero Troubleshooter is not the thing, maybe it's just that the Aero feature has been disabled by the update. Try this:

    1. right click on the desktop

    2 select Customize

    3. Select an Aero theme

    4 see if previews back

    Just for the record, could you let us know if any of the suggested fixes works (and which). If you still have problems after trying the above, could you please come back with more details (if possible).

    Hello

    For me, it looks like a hardware problem. Maybe it s the keyboard or keyboard controller itself.
    But first, you must be sure that this failure was not due to a software problem.
    Therefore, it would be desirable to update the system and install the OS from the Toshiba Recovery CD.

    If the keyboard problem appears again, I'd recommend contacting the ASP in your country to control the laptop.

    It seems that the guarantee could be valid for all replacements must be done for free.

    See you soon
