Satellite L500 / 01 K - Fn (F6 & F7) do not work

Hello

Just bought Satellite L500 / 01 K upgraded to Windows 7 (32 bit).
Only the key Fn (F6 F7) do not work.

Tried to uninstall Toshiba and PVAT flashcards support utility and reintall them, restart the computer and still does not work.
The utility of Toshiba ECO mode also do not work, but I think it's maybe because it is impossible to adjust the brightness of the screen.

Could someone help with this. Thank you

Hi, WML,.

This means that all the FN buttons work without adjusting screen brightness FN key?

It would be interesting to know which of PVAT versions and Flash Cards Support utility you used to reinstall it. On Windows 7, you need the latest versions as I know, the two should be released for Windows 7.
Check this box!

If you reinstall the applications, first remove all older versions. Restart your computer, and then install PVAT first. After a reboot, you can install the Flash Cards Support utility and all the FN buttons should start working.

Last but not least utilitarian ECO mode should also be reinstalled. ;)

  • Satellite L500 - 1 EV - Some FN keys do not work on Windows 7

    Hello

    I bought a new laptop Toshiba Satellite L500 - 1 EV. Now I'm with Windows 7 32 bit OS, and I noticed that some of the shortcuts - espacially the "fn + F8" - to turn on and turn off the adapter wireless and "Fn + F9" allowing you to alternate between the mouse and touchpad of entry do not work. After I press FN + F8 wireless adapter still works and the light always. After pressing Fn + F9 system keeps the receiver input mouse and touchpad.

    Am I missing some driver?
    Thank you!

    Hello

    Have you installed Windows 7 yourself or was it is preinstalled on your laptop?

    AFAIK for the FN keys you need Toshiba Value added Package, and Flash Cards Support utility. In your case, I will try to reinstall the two of them, VAP first and then Flash cards support utility.

    Consult the Toshiba site, where you can find these two tools! :)

  • Satellite L500: WLan is de-energized and does not work most of the time

    Hi all, I have a satellite toshiba L500 running windows 7. iprimus have used wireless internet, no problem for a few weeks before that, used it via an ethernet cable as I didnth ave a wireless modem. my phone was off load the other night and went flat, next morning when I woke up and turned on, it wouldnrt to connect to internet after hours and hours of phone calls, iprimus and many resets winsock, ethernet and modem reset cable tests they tell me that the problem is in my laptop...

    So I rang toshiba... and they got forced to go in device drivers, cards, and then network and disable, actually uninstall the wireless drivers and then reinstall... and it worked... Finally... (forgot to add with the confusion iprimus someone had reset my passowrd and I had to configure to the laptop...)

    Anyway, after all of these calls, I did a full restore of the computer laptop, all deleted and reinstalled everything and then reinstall the modem. This time in the configuration of the modem, he told me the wireless network adapter was unplugged and let me only implemented via ethernet...

    now earlier today, I had the internet... but he dropped randomly... pages Web will go slow, sometimes it will reconnect, sometimes he used. now I thougbht could try and uninstall and reinstall the modem again, s soul mistake and this time, can not get the wireless at all.

    Ive google to see if others have had this problem... and seeing what others has written, I went into my battery settings and checked the WLAN will not in mode 'sleep', etc., and ive also checked everythings active. Ive no idea what do, or iprimus and Toshiba will give me answers, both companies are just to blame each other lol
    so I have
    It doesn't seem to be my laptop, as all the lights are on modem... and iprimus keep telling me its not record not not with them (disconnects) so my wireless. Although every time my laptop has left internet, so would my iphone of bfs were testing us and so did my other laptop which is partially drunk but couldn't normally always connect to the net... so as to tell me it is a problem of modem... Ive no idea what to do... and can not keep it via ethernet on the bench in the new House ive, as with 2 children less than 3 years moved in, is asking for trouble...

    someone at - it suggestions?
    Thanks in advance

    That s the best way to get rid of a client who has a problem, I know that those people who don't say, this is not my problem it problem computer laptop s ;)
    I think that the guys running out of ideas.

    However, first try an update of the WLan driver;
    NEST WLan driver can be downloaded here:
    http://APS2.toshiba-tro.de/WLAN/

    If new BIOS BIOS update would be available.
    You should also check the advanced settings of the wireless network card.
    To do this, go to Device Manager-> properties-> Advanced tab WLan card.

    Here you can choose some settings that would improve performance

    Good luck

    Hello

    Have you tried to update the display driver? Maybe you have an older version that is not fully compatible with Windows 7. Just check the Web from Toshiba site to get the latest version:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    Normally for mode full screen in games you choose the native screen resolution of your screen there.

  • Re: Satellite L500 iCQ, as Volume Rotary control does not work

    Front volume control does not work. Volume is set to maximum and can only be controlled by the mouse and the slider control.
    Can anyone help?

    To be honest I don't think that anyone will be able to help you with this.
    As far as I know that's not used such mechanical volume on older models of computers laptops, but electronically part controlled by software, so the only thing you can do is to test the functionality with the settings and see if the problem will be the same.

    What else can you do? I do not know. Maybe update the BIOS, but I do not think that this will help you.

    Do you use pre-installed OS original you got with your laptop?
    Have you made some changes or anything that can have a negative influence in this?
    Since when you noticed this strange behavior?

  • Satellite L500 - 1CQ PSLS0E - CD/DVD drive does not work - driver problem?

    Hello

    My DVD player does not work.

    There is power to it. The engine turns when I eject and reinsert. Troubleshooting Control Panel for the equipment and devices said it is a driver problem, but cannot fix it. Problem with the driver.

    I reinstalled it from the Toshiba site.
    It records in the right place?
    I am Windows 7 64 bit and chose the right driver for it.

    Should I use the 64-bit?
    I have 3 MB of RAM which was the spec when bought.

    If I wanted to change to 32 bit how you take you without the CD/DVD drive?
    Is there any point in doing this?

    Thank you

    Hello

    To be honest I m a bit confused.
    You are not able to boot from THE disks; Windows disk, disk recovery, disk Linux?

    If it of the case, then it means that your CD/DVD drive is faulty.
    Why? Because the CD/DVD drive is recognized and controlled by the BIOS when booting from CD or DVD.

    When the Windows operating system has started, the CD/DVD drive must use the Microsoft common driver which is part of the Windows operating system.
    This means that you n t need to install ALL the drivers in order to get the job of CD/DVD.

    If you can boot from any disk, but if the CD/DVD drive is not recognized by MY computer, then I recommend this:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/270008/en-us

    Before you remove the upper and lower registry filters, remove the CD/DVD drive in Device Manager and then go into the registry and remove the filters. Restart the unit.

    Good luck

  • Satellite P200 - Product Recovery Disk 2/2 does not work

    Hello

    because my laptop (Satellite P200 - I bought in December 2007) does not work more properly - and when, after a lot of cleaning it still wasn't working properly - I decided to start from the beginning and restore the operating system with 2 product recovery cd / dvd.

    Recovery disk 1/2 worked well - Windows Vista Home Premium product is loaded again on my computer.

    But what abot * Disck2/2 product recovery? *
    At one point, the recovery program calls for a 'supplement' but when I put in the product recovery disc 2/2 at this time, that the program does not recognize the disc. During the rest of the recovery program the program didn't ask for Product Recovery Disk 2/2, so the content of this CD-ROM/dvd now is not loaded on my laptop.

    Someone had this problem too?
    What do you have on this?
    Is this a problem for not loading the content of the product recovery disc 2/2 (I can go without it?)?

    Thanks in advance for any response!

    Hello

    > Products 1/2 worked well - Windows Vista Home Premium recovery disc is loaded again on my computer.

    I put t know which modules the tool called for, but AFAIK the Toshiba image contains the operating system Vista, Toshiba drivers and additional software.
    So if you've recovered the laptop using the recovery disk Toshiba 1 then the laptop must be set to the SAME State as at the first day of the purchase.

    PS: what files you can find on the second disk?

  • Satellite L500/01F and Win7 - can't get the working FN keys

    I have a Satellite L500/01F and performed a clean installation of windows 7.
    All right, except that I can't get the FN keys work.

    Is there a certain driver I can download for this problem? Thank you

  • Satellite A30, Win XP Pro SP3 - modem does not work

    Another problem with this laptop Satellite A30
    The built-in modem does not work.

    * Explanation: *.
    The driver is correct and downloaded from the Toshiba support site.
    The modem is identified as "Toshiba software modem amr" and is installed on com3 port.

    When I click on "diagnosis" and "ask modem" (right labels can be different, since my is an Italian win xp, I just translated the Italian labels), a window pops up saying: it is impossible to open the door (port), the modem is connected to.

    I tried to change the com port of the modem to different numbers, but the problem is the same.
    I don't know if the modem is a real map connected somehow to the main Board or is built right on the main map. It would be the first case, I may change see ad. BTW, the mini slot pci is already occupied by the gigabyte of Wi - Fi, so the modem must be elsewhere.

    This is strange, since I've done at least 2 other win xp pro on this machine facilities, always download and install the appropriate drivers, and the modem has never worked.
    Thank you

  • Satellite P200 accidents + message: graphic card driver does not work properly

    Hello

    hope that this issue has not been covered before, but I've owned a Satellite P200 for 3 years now, and this week, it crashes all the time.

    When it started going down he gave me a few messages in the sense of "your graphics card/driver does not work properly and windows will be arrested to avoid damage.

    It has progressed to the point where now when I turn it on, I have vertical lines running down the screen and the screen flashes on and outside. Within 20 seconds, it restores the BSOD - 'there was a problem and windows will be arrested. Error Page_Fault_In_Non_Paged_Area"then stops.

    I ran a system restore but the problem remains.

    I have a feeling that my graphics card is toast. Is this good? Are there any other options to try? Thanks in advance for any answers.

    Matt

    Hello

    Sounds like the GPU problem.
    But try the graphics card driver update.
    Use the most recent driver for your graphics card.

    In addition, clean the fans of portable computers.
    Dust and debris could prevent the cooling fans to turn with the best speed and this could lead to a higher temperature which would lead to overheating.
    Use a jet of compressed air. I also use it and it helps to get rid of dust and debris.

    If this is not enough, then a problem of graphics chip would be possible.

    > bios maybey upgreate solve the problem?

    Update the BIOS?
    Why the BIOS updated so the WLan has worked properly with this version of BIOS before installing Win XP again?

    I think that you have not installed the right WLan driver.

    Satellite L40 - 16 d belongs to the series of PSL48.
    The drivers are available on the page of the Toshiba UE driver:

    In addition, you can choose WLan driver: Realtek RTL8187B because the cell phone was equipped with such a WLan module.

  • Satellite A300-20 q two multimedia keys do not work

    I have my Satellite A300-20 q a year and a half. Recently (a week) ago two of the six multimedia keys works in a strange way:

    At first things that remained functional:

    -Each button MM (MMB) changes its light when they are affected;
    -play, stop, forward and back buttons work when you start Windows Media Player.
    -I turn on the laptop by pressing the CD/DVD key;
    -lights up button is activated and deactivated when I run the dimmer.exe application.

    What no longer works:

    -lights button on / off don't turn the lights on and outside
    -Button CD/DVD does not take Media Player
    -both of these buttons don't not launch any application related to them: I can attribute an application, the software remembers the lines of command, but touch these two buttons, nothing happens (and, of course, the solution described in the next topic http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=134226 does not work in my case).

    I recently made only two changes in the configuration of the computer: installed CygWin and VMWare. I also tried to install CygWin a pair of months and didn't expect problems with the buttons at this time. So I suspect that VMWare has changed something in the configuration of Windows.

    Any suggestions?

    > recently has just two changes in the configuration of the computer: installed CygWin and VMWare

    The problem is installed VMWare (virtual machine)
    I read a few threads on the same issue and this tool (VMWare) affect the functionality of the multimedia keys!
    You have to remove it and you will see that the buttons works again
