Satellite L500: after cleaning with a cloth keyboard problem

Hi guys,.

New to this Forum, can someone help us please

Our daughter decided to give the keyboard a cleaning with a cloth but it was then that he turned and now some letters when keyed perform other functions, for example the letter t emerged the same function as f7. The letter o, e and l also do different things, which means that you can not do anything without a huge break.

Any ideas guy...?

Thanx

Tim

Hello

> The letter o, e and l also do different things, which means that you can not do anything without a huge break.
Does this mean that keyboard buttons T, O, E, and L don't work properly even if you type slowly?

I have no idea why this happened after trying to clean the keyboard, but perhaps some keyboard buttons are damage.
The problem is that you can't remove/replace the simple buttons and it seems that you need to replace the entire keyboard.

Good luck

    Hi Khalid,

    I know not just how mush disassembling do you clean your P30, but it is possible that you have dislodged the attacing of ribbon cable connector that you post for the motherboard. I suggest you check that this connection is still intact.

    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.

    A mod can explain please why all my messages complain that Toshiba cannot resolve the well-known problem of the Mini click keyboard battery have been removed?

    Caveat emptor, it seems that not only the product does not work as advertised, but all attempts to engage the problem and alert the community seem to be censored, too...

    Please try this (which worked for me)

    Turn the laptop completely off by holding down the power button.

    Place it in the charger.

    test to see whether or not he is totally turned off by quickly tapping once on the power button. You should see two indicators of battery.

    Wait for the top has accused...

    When you see that the load indicator is on the second battery, this unfortunately will not charge it. However...

    Press the quick power button to see the two indicators.

    Remove the plug from the charger to the laptop (not the wall) and reinsert it back quickly

    Then wait...

    After 20 minutes to feel the charger on the wall... If it's hot, it recharges the battery in the keyboard...

  • Start A60 after cleaning of the ATI drivers problem

    Hi, as the vast part of PC Toshiba laptop with ATI card users installed, I had been experiencing problems with the "blue screen", "recurring loop." Look for example at http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=9411&messageID=33486#33486

    I tried different approaches and managed to reduce it to crashing weekly or biweekly. I must have stopped improving, but has decided to never happen and found somewhere a radical solution: to wipe completely all traces of ATI drivers by some driver cleaner, restart and install brand new from ground zero. Well, he stopped boot at all. Normally, in 'the last working configuration', or 'safe mode '... It gives for an instant Windows logo glitters even more short with a blue screen and goes immediately to restart...

    Is there anything I can do about it without reinstalling Windows and losing my data?
    Thank you very much!

    Hi Dimitri

    Connect the HARD drive to the other PC (using the USB HDD) and try to copy all the data to the main PC.
    Replace the portable HARD drive and preinstall the operating system using the recovery media.

    On this way you will have own OS and save your time and nerves.

  • Satellite Pro A100 (PSAAC) with WIN XP - shutdown problem

    I have problems with my laptop stops not when I ask to do. The message that TSrsTRAYWND isn't closing arrives and I'm invited to manual closing. Even if I do this, the machine "blockages" and does not shut down. I tried the boot without failure and closure then - it does correctly, but then when I start normally and try to stop, it is up to the "hanging" again. The operating system and other programs are fully up-to-date.

    Can anyone suggest one solution, from other online for one, I see that others have the same problem, without a solution yet.

    In anticipation of your help, thank you!

    PS - I can't find any reference to the TSrsTRAYWND anywhere.

    Hello

    I tried on my laptop for a TSrsTRAYWND.exe file but I could t find anything. If you search for this file on the HARD drive you get a result?

    I think it has something to with the drivers/software that will be loaded on Windows start. You should try to disable all programs in msconfig-start up that you don't need online. Then try again.

    Sorry, but everything that s what I can say at the moment.

  • Satellite L500 - 19 - how to properly configure the keyboard?

    I bought a Satellite L500 - 19 c with Windows 7 64 bit and I am having trouble with the keyboard mapping for the correct use of the Portuguese language.

    When I try to highlight a letter, for example by 'one', I get the side ' ~ ~ ' instead of the accent over the letter. I checked all the configurations of Windows and Toshiba SW and everything seems to go well tuned for Portuguese (Portugal).

    Please help me how to fix.

    Hello

    Normally, you can change the layout of the keyboard so go to control panel > keyboard. Here, you must add the keyboard layout you want and delete all other layouts you want.

    After that, the keyboard should work fine.

    Hello

    That means only one disc can be read from your laptop and all other disks can be read properly? Well, in my opinion, it could be a disc problem, maybe it's striped s and so it can t be read to all readers.

    In your case, I would try to clean the lens of your CD/DVD drive. Therefore, you can use a microfibre cloth.

    Hello

    I googled a little and found this:
    http://www.withinWindows.com/2009/03/15/Windows-7-to-officially-support-logon-UI-background-customization/

    The procedure is a little but delicate.
    You must change the registry.

    -Beginning of registry (Regedit.exe)
    -go to
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE-Software-Microsoft-Windows-CurrentVersion------authentication------LogonUI------background

    -Create a new DWORD value named OEMBackground
    -Double-click OEMBackground and set its value data to 1
    -Access register

    This allows you to include the screen background image (jpg)

    In C:\Windows\System32\oobe\info\backgrounds, you could include the jpg file.
    The file should be named backgroundDefault.jpg + +.

    Note: info and background folders don't exist by default. You must manually create these records. In addition, the images must be less than 256 KB!

  • Satellite L500 - message: printer driver is not installed

    I have a Deskjet F4500 printer and a Satellite L500 - 19 X.

    Recently had printing problems & the printer icon disappeared from the devices & printers in the control panel. Delete all programs & reinstalled the printer from the original CD.

    Printer now works well & icon reappeared. However laptop computer icon on the devices & Printers shows warning yellow & said triangle laptop troubleshooting needs.

    When I do this it says driver not installed printer, apply the fix. When I try this it says device not only installed no driver found.

    Surely, the driver must be installed as the printer works fine.

    How can I get rid of the indication that the laptop needs troubleshooting?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    In the history I see a problem: Toshiba doesn't support third party hardware and software so when you have this kind of problems, you need to contact HP support and clarify this point with them.
    HP has created this software, and they know what to do in such situation.

    If you have problems with the ports of the laptop or any other thing that you are on the right place here.

    What we can say here is to remove preinstalled software, clean the registry and install it again.

  • Satellite L500 - cannot turn off the WiFi and network icon changing itself

    Hello

    I have a Satellite L500-1GL (comes with Win 32-bit =) and since I installed the latest updates I can not disable the wireless function. When I use the shortcut key to activate or disable the indicator led is turning on and off, but the wireless feature is always turned on and even the icon which shows the network connection, itself changes without doing something with it.

    A few times it shows Red Cross (as she has no connection), but says: connected. When I use wireless connecton always displays the cable connection icon. most of the time, when he should have been showing the strength of the signal.

    This is reaally annoing. Please help me solve this problem.

    Hi danihun,

  • Satellite L500-1XR CPU compatibility

    Dear members of the Forum!

    I have a Toshiba L500-1XR (PSLJHE-001001HU).

    Its origin comes with core i3 - 330 M (C2) CPU.
    I would like to upgrade to i5 - 520 M or better CPU-that same recessed and have the same energy consumption.

    The i5 CPU, there are 2 steppings: c2, k0
    My CPU have C2 stepping.

    My question is:
    2.00 BIOS supports K0 steppings CPU is that also, or - newest (?) downloadable BIOS 2.10 supports K0, step by step, or not at all?

    So I can use them all, even embedded CPU, or C2 single stepping of the?

    I have not found any relevant information on the internet.
    Where can I find more information on changes in the BIOS?

    I think you know that there are two important facts about the CPU upgrade:
    The new processor must be supported by the chipset, as well as by the BIOS.

    It is very easy to find support for chipsets.
    The laptop was equipped with a Mobile Intel HM55 Express Chipset and support is listed on the Intel ARK page
    http://Ark.Intel.com/products/43183/Intel-BD82HM55-PCH

    Under compatible products, you will find that all taken chipsets supported processors

    But even if the chipset would support the new processor, there is a still pending regarding BIOS support. Unfortunately, there is no information on the CPU / BIOS supports.

    But to my knowledge that different models of Satellite L500 were equipped with an Intel Dual Core 2 Duo processor and Intel Penryn/Celeron CPU takes in charge.

    From my point of view of the few if you want to upgrade CPU, you must choose one of the series mentioned.

    But once again: can not say with certainty that this CPU would be funded.

  • Re: Satellite L500-19 X - screen keeps going black

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L500 - 19 X and continues to go to the black screen.

    When you start the computer it flashes briefly until start / Boot screen properly before going black right now. Sometimes, the image is displayed correctly for 3 or 4 minutes before also black.

    If you hold down / tilt the screen under a strong light you can see a preview of the ghost of what should be displayed and if you connect an external monitor to the external monitor works fine and you can see a black ghost of what is on the external monitor on the laptop screen.

    I tried to reinstall the drivers, but it had no effect.

    Do you think I should replace the screen inverter Board or just reconnect the connectors screen?

    Thank you very much for your advice.

    Hello

    First to solve this problem, you must disassemble the laptop.
    I put t know exactly the procedure step by step for the L500 series but this procedure isn't very easy disassembly and you could damage other parts.

    Back to the question.
    It seems that the graphics card is OK and the problem is with lighting.
    Satellite L500 was equipped with a FL inverter Board and LCD joint (no backlight).
    The FL inverter controls the level of backlight screen s and I think that in your case, this part is defective.
    To resolve this problem, he needed to remove and replace the s FL inverter.
