Satellite L500-PSLS9A-02C012 F8 function works not

Hey guys basically I reinstalled windows 7 ultimate 32 bit on my laptop and my function key (FN) stopped working so I installed PVAT and flash card support and a few others on the Web site of Toshiba but here s my problem...

When I press FN nothing appears on the top of the screen as he used to, but I can use F6/F7 to change brightness F5 to change the display ect all still works bar F8, so I can't turn my wireless on which is a real pain.

Any help would be appreciated muchly,
What about Ross.

>... I reinstalled windows 7 ultimate 32 bit on my laptop and my function key (FN) has stopped working...
You have reinstalled Win7 using the original Toshiba recovery image?

In General, all you can do now is to reinstall PVAT or utility support flash cards.
Have you tried to restart flash cards? To do this, and press the FN key several times.

  • Satellite L500 - 20 X - switch WLAN does not work after upgrade to Windows 8

    Hello

    I extend my Toshiba Satellite L500 - 20 X for Windows 8.
    Unfortunately, since this update my WLAN switch is no longer working. All function keys work only (switch WLAN) F8 to F7, and F9 (touchpad) is more work.

    What can I do?

    Thanks in advance.

    Kind regards
    Klaus

    Satellite L500 is not win 8 taken upgrade supported, so I think that the problem is a missing driver or software

    As far as I know to be able to use the keys FN added value package to win 8 must be installed.
    Check another area driver Toshiba notebook series supporting the Win 8.
    Maybe you could use the VAP released for other series.

  • Satellite L500 14 X - Fan switches do not properly under Fedora 12

    Hello people,
    I seem to have the same kind of problems with the fans of speed on my recently purchased Toshiba Satellite L500 14 X and Fedora 12
    The fan turns slowly until the processor gets 37 degrees. Then it runs at maximum speed, and never slowed until the reboot.

    I updated the BIOS to 1.60

    Now, in the Ubuntu 9.10 on the same notebook it WORKS CORRECTLY. When the CPU is hot on 37 or more senior degrees it starts to spin faster and when CPU back to 34 degrees, the fan slows down and works almost noiselessly!

    I tried all the options of the kernel: acpi.power_nocheck = 1, acpi = off, acpi_osi = 'Windows 2006', and so on — nothing has really changed.
    I tried different Fedora kernels, include 2.6.32 - nope...
    I tried to find a reason why it works under Ubuntu and does not work in Fedora 12... But have yet to find something fishy... And I think that the problem is somewhere in the kernel.
    The main difference I see is that on fedora 12 I can not install the proprietary ATI driver, who normally installs on Ubuntu 9.10. It is because of the xorg version in Fedora 12 and seems that we must wait for the next version of the ATI drivers.

    One last thing - in Fedora 12 notebook became hot very quickly and without reasons of course.
    In Ubuntu, it's not so fast and requires CPU load with something serious.

    I don't want Fedora to Ubuntu, just because of this problem of FAN (nothing personal :))) so I need to get this working in Fedora 12)

    Maybe someone faced the same thing?
    Any help much appreciated! :)

    Hey!

    I found the solution. Incredible, but the index is ATI owner driver. As I mentioned previously, the Fedora 12 version of the ati 9.11 driver cannot be installed due to the latest version of xorg.
    I reinstalled my toshiba with Fedora 11, install the driver from ati.com ATI and here us are :) now fans are working properly!

  • Satellite L500-19 x - restore disks does not

    Hello

    I noticed that my Satellite L500-19 x hard drive was on its way so I bought a replacement. I used the tool on the machine to create 2 DVD restoration of re - install the system.

    The restoration seems to run ok, working across two discs etc. It turns out, asks me to remove the media and restart the computer.

    The startup of Windows 7 starts, but for "The Installer applies Control Panel" of the GET and I get a message saying "Windows Setup could not configure Windows to run on a hardware on this computer."

    Someone at - it ideas? I ran the restore a couple of times with the same result. I am rather surprised that the restore CD is essentially useless.

    East - the first time you used recovery disks?
    If your old drive still works somehow try to reinstall the OS using the HARD drive recovery process - [http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9102IR0000R01.htm] - just to see if the same thing will happen again.

    It is not easy to say what the problem is there, but maybe by creating discs of some pieces not were not saved on the right place. Who knows?  :|

    Hello

    I found the drivers for this series on the European driver Toshiba page
    I put t know why Tempro or a Service Station can not find it, but I could find it.
    The number of PSLJ0E is the first number in the list.

    To be honest; I did not upgrade to update all drivers if everything works properly.

    Hello everyone

    I have a problem, all of a sudden, without doing anything, my * FN keys stop working *. The adjustment of the brightness first always worked without appearing in the bar at the top of the screen, but when I restart the computer even no work, nothing in relation to the FN key works.

    My biggest problem is that my computer is a Toshiba Satellite L500-13W and * I can only activate wireless by pressing FN + F8 *. I can't stay with this issue much more. I already looked in this forum and other sites, but none of the solutions have solved my problem.

    Hello

    Does that mean exactly? What have you already tried exactly?
    You should post this very important information what you exactly did.

    Furthermore, I can't find any more information about your operating system. You are using Vista 32-bit, but is this preinstalled Toshiba or have you installed yourself?

  • Satellite L500 (PSLS9A-01U012) - better update BIOS 1.6?

    It's just a small thing, but my last PC Toshiba laptop has the option to boot from USB. I could boot a Linux and Windows from a USB key, and it was great. So here's my question. Is it possible to boot from USB without a BIOS update?

    Well, I know that the answer is probably no, so I'll ask the question. Thinking that there is an update for my BIOS, I visited the mytoshiba.com.au website and discovered that the only available update is that I currently have. Then I went on the site of decision-makers (Pheonix) BIOS, who headed biosagentplus.com, which scanned my computer to check updates. He claims that it is a new BIOS update available, but I must register and PAY for an annual subscription to just the chance to see what is the version number of this release. So my question is, where is this "update" and it supports boot from USB?

    Thank you.

    Hi Hambo,

    The fact is that not all laptop computers support booting from the USB device and if it s possible is described in your user manual.
    As far as I know it is only possible to boot from the USB on Satellite L500 floppy drive, but not USB key

    Also the BIOS update does that fix bugs and add new features for I n t see a reason to make the point.
    But if you make an update of the BIOS at any time, you must download site Web from Toshiba to form. This is the only site where you can get a compatible BIOS.

    Hello

    I think you should check the settings of the Windows Media Player library. In Options > library, you can choose the files that need to be monitored. I think you should monitor the folder where you have added music.

  • Satellite L500-126-CD/DVD drive does not open very well unrolled

    Hello

    I just got my second Satellite L500-126.
    I traded my first for a new because the ESCAPE key got stuck sometimes and made a grinding sound.

    Now, with my new one, I noticed that my dvd drive does not open very well unrolled and 2 bars of silver metal bit come out with the car when I open it.
    Is this normal?

    Also, when I close the dvd player, I hear a little noise "ping!"
    Like a spring, or something. Is that also normal?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    I'm not quite sure what you mean by 2 small bars of silver, but the reader of my laptop s contains two metals (runners, railway).
    This is normal and these pieces are important to ensure that the drive can eject properly and could remain in a good position.
    Still, you will hear a short click Open and close the drive.

    So I guess it's ok.

  • Satellite L500-13D-CD/DVD drive does not read CD

    Hello

    I have a Toshiba Satellite l500-137 laptop with vista sp2.
    There is a cd writes that my dvd drive would not read, the driver can read other CDs & DVDs well.
    who says cd's seems to be fine as it can become red from the other computer.

    any suggestions?

    * Thanks to *.

    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.

  • Satellite P100 PSPA3A - Touchpad and function keys not working not

    Hello
    I'm new to the forum so please excuse my lack of computer skills.

    Where my problems began, is that I deleted the driver of my computer keyboard.
    I reinstalled and now works with the exception of the function keys.

    I tried to install Hotkeys out of the Toshiba web site without success. It will not be loaded on the computer for me.
    I also reinstalled "utilities" and in doing so the touch pad mouse has stopped working.

    Is someone able to offer, for me, what should I do to fix this?

    Thank you very much in advance for your help.
    Sam

    I never heard of a keyboard driver deleting, but if some of your buttons work so I think the software is very good. It may be a loose keyboard connector is loose, which is located under your keyboard around the buttons 'Fred '.

    I return the phone to the place of purchase and get them to fix it. Less pain for you and an easy solution. Keep it simple, everyone!

    Good luck.

  • Satellite L500-1WG - built in webcam does not work

    My built-in web cam is not working, I discovered last week, and I have tried a few solutions as uninstall, then reinstall the driver but that work.

    Also I delete my system restore to save space so I can't really go back to when it worked.
    I don't think I installed all the drivers webcam lately, so I don't think that was it.

    Help?

    Hmmmm... What can be done now?
    Generally reinstall the driver webcam should help, but have you tried.

    What operating system do you use?
    Try to delete web camera application again, clean the registry and all the entries, restart the laptop and try to reinstall the right webcam driver.
    I put t really know what else you can try.

    By the way: what is the status of the webcam in Device Manager?
