• Satellite L670-143 - keyboard LAG but work external keyboard

  Hey all, I recently (3 weeks ago orsomething) bought a new laptop, a Toshiba Satellite l670-143.
  Windows 7 64 bit
  Intel® Core i5 - 430 M processor
  : 2.26 / 2.53 turbo GHz
  level 2: 3 MB cache
  4 096 (2 048 + 2 048) MB of ram
  ATI Mobility Radeon HD 5650 graphics card

  But this last week ive been keyboard problems. The problem is not always present, but when his present is not weather im play, surf the internet or write an important document.
  I'm not sure at 100% what the problem is, I spent hours trying to understand and to remedy, but nothing seems to help. But when I press a P, I sometimes PPPs. Or when I press a P, it does not appear. It is with all keys. And especially when I type fast. Also, when I pressed the back button, it "lags behind (for a fraction of a second)" every 2 seconds orso. When the problem is not present, the BACKSPACE key is smooth.

  I did a lot of virusscans and did all the registercleanups etc. I made sure that the keys filters and sticky keys are disabled. I checked all drivers updates. When I tried the fix http://keyliner.blogspot.com/2009/11/windows-7-slow-keyboard-response.html nr.1, he disappeared when I rebooted. but the next day, the problem came back and when I redid it, (does what it says + delete the file and recreate) it does not solve the problem. Maybe it was just random chance, I don't know. I turned off the laptop battery to see if she was getting better, he has not.
  I'm not sure of what other ive also tried...

  When I plug my usb keyboard (I write about this now) is not a problem either.

  Ive also browsed this forum,'m (happy in fact) to see that others have the problem as well, but I'm still looking for a solution that works for me
  . It would be simply amazing that I could get rid of this, its incredibly frustrating :(

  Thanks for your time.

  -To show wht TI locomotives as when I type wth myyy built-in keyboard, herr's-

  Hello

  To be honest, if an external keyboard is working correctly I think that it s a hardware malfunction and keyboard connected internally. I doubt it of a virus or something else because the same mistake happen on an external keyboard as well.

  In addition to the keyboard there is no special driver, it of a part of Windows so that you can t update the keyboard driver.

  Now in your case I would take with the closest authorized service provider contact. Your laptop is only 3 weeks so it s under warranty. If you communicate with ASP, they can view the workbook, and if you need a new keyboard, the repair is free. :)

  Hey,.

  To me it sounds like that HARD drive recovery files are deleted or missing then, how do you want to start the installation of HARD drive recovery?
  Usually, you can do this in the advanced Windows (F8) boot menu and choose fix my computer. After loading some files, you should be able to choose the Toshiba HDD recovery option.

  It it doesn t work you must have the Toshiba recovery disc but you don't create it?

  Thanks in advance

• Satellite L670 - 10 p BIOS flash error

  Hello

  Please I ask all the people here on this forum if you can help me with my situation.

  I have a Satellite L670 - 10 p and I wanted to do a BIOS upgrade. I downloaded the update to the BIOS from the page drivers and ran the executable inside. The program launched flashing the BIOS at the time without even asking anything or display certain information.

  The problem is that during the flashing, for some reason any the laptop off just - looks like it was overheating, because I had on my bed and didn't know that, maybe, the air cannot flow through the openings at the bottom.

  Anyway, now I have a non-working computer. Whenever I want to turn it on, the fan starts a bit, and then it turns off after 1 or 2 seconds.

  I also noticed, that if I plug in any USB key and turn everything on by pressing Fn + B, he wants to read something from the USB. I figured this out while trying to retrieve it using this BIOS Phoenix crisis recovery tool, but I had no luck.

  Does anyone have any suggestion that I do? Surely - some BIOS recovery tool, built in Notepad, is trying to access the USB key and you are looking for something, but what I put on it?

  > Does anyone have any suggestion that I do? Surely - some BIOS recovery tool, built in Notepad, is trying to access the USB key and you are looking for something, but what I put on it?

  Well, the fact is that the module of the BIOS EPROM was not flashed properly. The update process was interrupted and that is why the laptop doesn't work anymore.

  As far as I know, this kind of problems can be solved easily. To reflash the EPROM you need a particular crisis BIOS recovery tool.
  Usually the authorized Toshiba maintainer in your country has access to these software and could help you solve the problem.

  But I found a few comments in other threads on the corrupted BIOS problem and how to solve:

• Satellite L670 - update the BIOS

  Hello

  I own a Toshiba Satellite L670 running on Ubuntu Linux. I want to update my bios from version 1.00 to last version 2.30.

  But the site offers serverals versions window and one version of the OS "independent." I downloaded it and the .zip file contains only an .exe file I can't use with Linux.

  How can I update my bios? Not there at - it no .bin file?

  Thank you.

  This Toshiba laptop model no is not supported for Linux and all offered stuff on the download page are designed for the Windows operating system only if you cannot update BIOS if you use the failure to take in charge of operating system.

  Anyway, if there is a problem with your laptop BIOS update is not necessary.

• Satellite L670-143 how to get the language selection during recovery?

  Hello

  I just started my L670 for the first time today, I'm Dutch speaking so I chose "Dutch" (Nederlands) as the language of the interface for my Win7 installation. Shortly after installation, I noticed that the usual folders that I have on my main PC (English) were not there,

  instead of the file * / Users / * we created a folder * / Gebruikers / *.

  Because I like to copy a lot of files / preferences of applications from my main PC to the laptop and I'm not comfortable with the Dutch interface, I would like to also the English interface.
  For this purpose, I decided to do the system restore to choose English as the main language just as it is on my main PC, taking * 0 * when starting, select F8, click the method of complete recovery from Toshiba, but now I can no longer choose between * Dutch/French/English * as the language of the main interface and it installs automatically with the Dutch language.

  How can I do the complete factory restore then I have the choice of the language back, so I can install English please?

  Please, if anyone knows how I can get back the language selection of interface with the Toshiba recovery method?

  Hello

  As far as I know, you can choose the language of the system only once at the start of the laptop for the first time.

  I think this laptop model was launched in three different countries and that's why you can choose your preferred language for the first time. After that, the selected language will still be available on the HARD disk, but other languages would be disabled.

  Maybe you can order a disk recovery in English from here:

• Satellite L670-143 - problem USB or midi

  Hello

  I have a Toshiba laptop with 64-bit windows market 7.
  I recently bought DJ Mixer with midi control an allen and heath xone db2. When I connect it to the usb port it works for a minute and then stops working. I tried all usb ports and have the correct driver installed, but nothing works.
  Next to the mixing table, I have a midi controller allen and heath xone k2 and it works fine on my Toshiba laptop.

  I also have another laptop (Medion) as well as the works of mixer on this laptop, so the unit is not broken.
  Anyone got an answer to my problem.

  Just a question: do you have other problems using the USB ports?
  I mean other USB devices are working properly?
  If you have any other problems using the USB ports in connection with other USB devices, I don't think this problem is related to the laptop.

  However, it may still be a compatibility problem between two devices, but in this case, you should check out midi mixer manufacturer page for some details.

  In my opinion, you should check if you have installed the software correctly.
  I read the XoneDB2 manual and it mentions some important details (installation of PC page 28).

  1. connect the XONE:DB2 your grid and turn on.
  Do not connect the DB2 to the PC at the moment.
  2 open the Drivers folder and run Setup.exe.
  3. Select your preferred language
  4. Select install driver
  5. When prompted, connect the DB2 to the PC with the USB cord.
  6 If this window appears, select Install.
  7 the USB driver will now install.

  9 restart to complete the installation.

• Satellite L670-143 white and flashing screen

  So, I turn to get it back again.

• Satellite L670-12J - becomes inadmissible constantly

  Hello

  My Satellite L670-12J new running Windows 7 64 bit freezes constantly, usually a few minutes after the start of almost every time I turn it on. It becomes inadmissible: I can't change the application, view the Task Manager or activate the start menu. The mouse cursor moves, but displays the wait icon and I can't click anywhere. The hard drive light flashes on a regular basis, a quick flash once a second about.

  It does not appear to be linked to a specific program that I am running. I can get when the computer is idle or when I run a random application.

  The only way to recover from it turn the computer off (press and hold power for a few seconds). Once it restarts, it works without problem until the next time I turn it on.

  As I bought this week yet, should I go back to the dealer and ask for another or is there something I can do to fix this?

  Thank you
  Luis

  Hello

  Usually, these gels can be related to a hardware or software problem. You have installed all drivers for software once you've got the laptop?

  In General, before returning the laptop, you must reinstall Windows using Toshiba recovery disc. The disc can restore factory settings and if it s just a software problem, it will be fixed after reinstalling Windows.

  Otherwise you need the service help :(

• Why can we not replace the WLAN on Satellite L670 card?

  Hello

  I use a PSK3EE satellite L670-143, which comes with a default of Atheros AR9285 wireless network adapter.
  I tried to replace it with the 5 GHz Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6230, who has a 2-pin connection too.
  Unfortunately, the card is correctly recognized by Windows7 but for some reason any, he gets no signal.

  Running inSSIDer, there is no unique surrounding device found, while even my own router is advertising in the 5 GHz band, and the taskbar icon, said Intel's Wifi network but it still says that Wifi is disabled.

  Trying to enable/disable wireless network connection by using the special key FN + F8 combination, I am unable to turn it on.

  Please someone has installed a third-party network adapter in a satellite? Toshiba blocks everything, but default wireless adapters? or how to operate next door only be correctly detected by Windows, but cannot turn the signal?

  Thanks for any help.

  > Why we cannot replace the NIC on Satellite L670?
  In General, hardware upgrade on laptops is very limited because of platforms of specific material used for mobile computing.

  Associated s user updates are only RAM and HARD drive. If you have any other questions on this I recommend you to contact the nearest Toshiba service provider. They have access to the database of Toshiba and can offer any kind of information about the hardware and the hardware upgrade.

• Satellite R830-143 - update of the BIOS does not support this operating system

  Hello

  I received a notification via Tempro that he did not have a BIOS upgrade. I downloaded the ZIP file (bios - 20120209125153.zip), extract the package (BIOS360_EC140_WIN.exe) and ran it according to the instructions.

  The package runs, give the progress bar "extract files...". ", then displays a dialogue entitled"TOSHIBA BIOS package Ver.4.1.2"that says:"this package BIOS does not support this operating system."

  I am running Windows 7 Home Premium 64 - bit on a Satellite 830R-143 with the short part No. PT32LE

  Does anyone know what is the problem?

  Thanks in advance for your help...

  Hello

  You have problems with the laptop?
  If not then why you want to do the BIOS? Just because the new BIOS is released?
  I would not change anything if my laptop is running correctly.

  However, the update of the BIOS requires the VAP (value added package).
  So remember that this PPV is installed correctly. If this isn't the case, so far.

• Re: Problems with Win7 boot on the new Satellite L670-17 x

  Hi guys,.

  Three days ago I got my new Toshiba Satellite L670-17 x. Installing Win7 was not a problem, but now (after the start of the third or fourth) I suddenly a big trouble with the operating system.

  When I turn on my laptop, it loads up until I can see the Windows loading screen. Then - both - the laptop stop working... I can only see the loading screen, but nothing happens. Turns off the light litte to the frontsite (which shows that the specifications of load/work). No error message.

  I want to avoid using the Toshiba HARD drive recovery, because I saved (important) documents on the desktop (I know... not very smart). I ask you to help me with my problem.

  (By the way: I already tried Windows repair system, System Restore memory diagnostic tool and start Windows Mode without failure).

  Thank you very much for your answers!

  If you cannot boot OS in safe mode, that, in my opinion, you have a big problem. I'm afraid only installation of HARD drive recovery will help you in this m.
  The question is what to do with this data.

  Perhaps you should remove the HARD drive and connect it to another computer to have full access to all of these external data. Copy them, replace the HARD drive in your Satellite and install the OS by using HARD drive recovery option.
