  Symptom:
  Keys is de-energized or gives wrong output. The problems occurs randomly, either right at startup or after availability. Looks like it's a hardware related issue and not a problem with the OS. The problem occurs in several OS´s and even in the BIOS-meny. None of the solutions posted in this forum / other items solves the problem.

  The battery is not a solution (as suggested in other posts), the problem reoccurs after availability and sometimes even right to restart the computer. (Et laisse le visage, un ordinateur portable sans une batterie est un _stationary_) =)

  No! It's not overheating and heat issue, this problem may occur at startup after a powerdown complete with battery and power removed. (and no, this isn't a problem of dust or a problem of broken / lack of cooling-fans/ventilation)

  I use the lates for my model BIOS, so make a habit/flash-update of the bios to solve the problem.
  Default factory restore is not a solution either, but _différemment_ ive tried, even if this problem most def is a hardware problem.

  All the other solutions suggested by other posters solves the problem (most of them software related bugs in any case).

  Comments:
  The problem started recently enough (ive had this laptop for about a year and a half) and judging by the other posts in this forum seams problem began on the same date/time to a suspect that he is a "calendar/clock" related question... but I'm not an expert and it's just a hunch (would explain why some users may experience a temporary "I solved the problem by changing keyboard-calendar" - euporia until) what they ecounter problem once again after a time of ).

  The problem arises _completely_ radom and under any given the cirumstance...

  Any suggestions?

  The links that you post are not related to the A210 but L670 laptop model and it was reading about L670 and the problem has been resolved by the BIOS updated

  I have a laptop A210 and this issue never happened to me.
  I installed Win XP, Vista and Win 7 on the Satellite A210 and keyboard is ok.

  You have already updated the BIOS and fact laptop recovery and this didn't help?
  OK, so it seems to be linked to the keyboard and the AEP from Toshiba technician should check what

• Satellite L655-1HE «Problem of HARD drive recovery»

  Hello

  I have the Satellite L655-1HE. I created a "HARD drive recovery" through "create recovery media. On the contrary, CD/DVD, I put it in a USB Flash drive. But when I used it, a mistake was "copy of splitpart or the Canadian Red Cross has failed!" After that, I can't boot my laptop more. There is a message "BOOTMNGR missing." I think I already deleted the operating system in the player. Please help me. How can I fix?

  Hello

  If you can, please try to boot again from the USB and run the recovery.

  Whatever the problem, if the recovery is unsuccessful, I recommend the following steps:

  -buy a set of recovery-store to the wire to https://backupmedia.toshiba.eu
  -If you did, and even this game fails to install, take care to check your HARD disk for problems.

  Hope this helps

• Satellite C660 - keyboard problem

  I have a problem with the keyboard on my Satellite c660 laptop, reference number: PSC1LE.
  The best way I can describe it is like a stuttering problem because it comes and go (very well for a few hours, then not for a short period).

  The problem is that, for reasons unknown to me, I continue to experience a problem where the A, N and Enter keys do not work when you press. Sometimes pressing the key several times (they they are not frozen) is simply the letter out, but I can not continue to press the time key to five or six to get a letter. Just to mention, I've not spilled anything on the keyboard.

  I did full virus and spyware scans but have found no problem.
  I have done tonight all the updates of windows available to me, but it does not appear to have done the trick.

  After the restart that follows the device updates all worked them for about 15 minutes, so that the same three keys stopped working again. On this occasion, it lasted only a few minutes, and now I'm writing this with the same keyboard.

  Note: I do not use the original keyboard. I changed the jury due to minor property damage, but he did private.
  However, this was done most of the year there and worked flawlessly since installation, until this new edition took place in recent weeks.

  If anyone has new recommendations or suggestions as to what can be the cause or solutions and then share it please.

  I think you'd understand that nobody is able to say why your keyboard malfunctioned.
  Only if the hardware of the laptop has been scanned/verified, it would be possible to say what's wrong here
  But as General, there is a good workaround solution to diagnose the problem.

  You could connect the external USB keyboard to the laptop and could check if the same problems with the mentioned buttons will occur.

  In case the external USB keyboard would work correctly, I think that your internal keyboard is the troublemaker in such a case, you will need to replace the keyboard once more.

• Satellite Pro C650D - problems with the audio and game controllers

  Hello

  I recently had problems with my microphone and speakers/headphones and game controllers.
  Sometimes the microphone stops working when on Skype, for example, but most of the time works fine, once again, when I restart the pc.

  Stakeholders sometimes still work when I connect headset.
  Some of the sounds are still coming through the speakers while some coming through the headphones.

  I have a usb game controller which also did not work everything properly.
  If I assign buttons in the program that they do not work in the game.

  All these devices are in Device Manager in a group that makes me think it's sort of annoying update doubtful that messes with them.

  Any body have similar problems or know what to do better?

  See you soon

  Hello

  Can you please send some details on the laptop model and the system you are using?

  With regard to the issue of sound/mic:
  > The microphone sometimes stops working when on Skype, for example, but most of the time works fine, once again, when I restart the pc.

  Are you talking about internal microphone or external? This only happens using Skype?
  In your case I would test the microphone using different applications to make sure that is not a Skype related issue.

  > Yet sometimes the speakers work when I connect headset.
  I recommend this thread:

  The user has had a similar problem, but this phenomenon was linked to the Realtek HD Audio Manager settings.
  She wrote:
  + In the upper right corner, there is a small yellow folder called "Connector settings" in my version. +
  + There, finally I could re-enable the setting "enable popup dialog box, when the unit is plugged. +

  + So now when I plug an external speaker or headphones, it appears, and I select the option "helmet" (instead of "line-in"), and then the sound only through the headphones/ext.speaker.+

  Regarding the game controller:

  I put t think its problem of laptop in my opinion, you must make sure that the controller is compatible with the games you play and also recommended to check some info provided by the manufacturer of the game controller.

  I plugged a USB keyboard and it works well. That means it's the internal keyboard hardware that is defective? How long is the warranty on these laptops?

  You need new keyboard
  Ask Toshiba authorized service partner for a keyboard that you can also order a 2nd common hand keyboard from ebay or some online dealers

• Satellite A500 keyboard/mouse gel pad - slider and type the inadmissible spaces

  Problem with my new laptop, several times, that the cursor has become inadmissible for the mouse pad, and everything that is on the screen does not recognize me typing on the keyboard. This seems to happen while I'm using the mouse pad.

  I got the mouse pad power button thinking it may have been moved, but it does not affect the lack of reaction.

  Could I perform certain functions I don't know? Any other ideas?

  It is not easy to understand what the problem is here and try it all, it is possible to control these issues.
  With original preinstalled OS touchpad should work except that it has disabled with FN + F9 key combination or small button.

  This with typing is also a bit mysterious to me. If you use multiple windows (several different applications) be sure that you try to type when the window is active.

  Please don't get me wrong but the best thing you can do is to ask for help somewhere. Best address is Toshiba service. They can put the mobile on the desktop and check what is happening exactly.
  Here on this virtual world, I can just say: If you want to test on the right way to reinstall OS using the HARD drive recovery image (factory State) and test the functionality again. By default, everything should work well. If this is not the case, there must be a hardware failure.

  Connect the external USB keyboard and test functionality. Check if the use of the external USB keyboard would repeated the same problems.
  In case the external USB keyboard would work correctly, the problem is related to the internal keyboard to be replaced.

  Warranty is still valid?
  If so, get in touch with service partners in your country. The keyboard should be replaced free of charge.

• Satellite C50 - keyboard problem

  Hello

  Some time ago, I spilled beer on my Satellite C50D-A-133, and as a result of this stupidity of my friends as you can guess the keyboard has stopped working properly. I was afraid that the liquid can cause damage to the pc, so I took the keyboard out immediately. Even if I left dry and cleaned, as soon as I connect it to the laptop it starts to act as if a button is constantly kept pressed. I thought I can get a new and just replace it, but I can't seem to find the same model on the net. What can I do?

  Please help me with this problem because I am a student and need my laptop at all times especially for courses and tests the on-screen keyboard could never do the trick.

  Any peace of mind would be much appreciated. Thank you!

  >... so I took the keyboard out immediately
  There on the back sticker with the exact part number. You can use this part number and try to order a new one. You can also do is to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help.

  Addresses and phone numbers, you can find on http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/generic/ASP_SUPPORT/

  Have you tried to use it with external keyboard?
