Satellite M30 - keyboard does not work

Hello

I have a problem with the keyboard of my laptop:
Since I was able to type the password of the BIOS, it should be correct from a technical point of view.
But once having written the pass BIOS keyboard no longer works. It just doesn' react - it is even impossible to hit F2 to open the BIOS menu.
XP / system displays all hardware conflicts.
The laptop do not fall down or something like that.
I bought a USB keyboard, and it worked correctly from the start.

I tried every shortcut I know and a lot I didn't know until now, but it still does not work.

Is there a shortcut XP or Toshiba to disable the keyboard?
Or do you think this could be a hardware problem - but why it should be possible to write the password...?

(1) your bios can recognize an external input device and causing the keyboard not working after giving you access.

(2) remove all other usb devices you have connected (mouse, webcam or other) because they could be interpreted as an external keyboard

(3) if there is no USB device connected and the problem persists... remove your keyboard drivers external usb while you plug it (remove drivers dethrone device) and before you restart your computer, make sure to remove the external keyboard.

(3) you can have a software virus recorder or a keyboard that connects to the interruption of your keyboard.

If none of these permits, try to boot in an o/s different as the knoppix linux that runs directly from cd without need of installation. If your keyboard did not always works, then bring it to support, because the internal flat cable might came down in part.

Good luck

  • Satellite M30-113 does not work well when I use FreeBSD 6.2

    Hello

    My M30-113 does not work well when I use FreeBSD 6, 2-RELEASE http://www.FreeBSD.Org/

    I was told that Toshiba has release a new bios to correct the problem of cooling, because it does not allow me to fan passive cooling in FreeBSD.

    So could we have a new bios to solve this issue?

    Arabian salvation

    I am sure that mobile industry is focused on Windows operating system and hardware architecture together and preinstalled software are adapted and also configured to run well and stable.

    This operating system is supported and if something should be better portable manufacturers offer different updates to the BIOS. Of course, you can preinstall what you want but you can not expect support for everything you can find on the market and because of this I n t believe that you won't find any update especially for FreeBSD 6.2 - RELEASE BIOS.

    Hello

    Can enter you the BIOS (F2 key) with internal keyboard?
    If it isn't the internal keyboard seems to be defective and must be replaced

    I don t think you can do more. I mean you've tried everything what is possible and if an external keyboard works the installation of the OS should be ok.

    The keyboard can be ordered and replaced from an authorized service provider. Do you know how to contact the guys?

  • Satellite A60: keyboard does not work, the recovery DVDs cannot run

    Hello

    I have a serious problem with my A60: the keyboard no longer works. I tried many solutions and the last of them, recovery with the Recovery DVD - ROM product does not work, because I can't use the keyboard!

    When the screen with the 3 choices, I have no opportunity to respond.
    Someone has an idea?

    Thanks a lot for your answer.

    They keyboard might not be the problem, or it may not be connected properly to the motherboard the best thing to do is to take it to a service center, it should not cost you anything, if it is still under warranty... but if it's just the keyboard and your laptop is out of warranty then it should cost more than 100-200... can't say how much exactly, because I have no idea.

  • Satellite C660 - keyboard does not work

    Hello world

    I've recently updated the BIOS to version 1.60 on my PSC0LE C660-02300JEN (1 year) and the keyboard doesn't work well at all and sometimes stops working completely, making it unusable (I write on an external USB keyboard.).

    There was a recurring problem, a few months before I updated the BIOS with the strike being delayed or does not respond, sometimes when you type, but for the most part, it still worked.

    So I've updated the BIOS, as suggested, and I get the following problems:

    The space bar is either not responding or when you press + 2 written or +++ again and again until I stop it by pressing the SPACEBAR again.

    None of the numbers works.

    Sometimes the entire keyboard no longer works and none of the keys of a reaction.

    I tried solutions:

    Remove the battery.

    cleaning the keyboard to get whatever it is dislodged out under the keys.

    Reinstall the version 1.60 of the BIOS.

    I'm not sure what to do next and really appreciate the advice and help before I try to get the keyboard replaced. It would be nice to get an opinion before I gain for a fix.

    Really welcome responses.

    Thank you very much

    Hello

    I think that this problem of keyboard is not related to the BIOS update not to other software.
    Is that you can use the external USB keyboard as you said above this means that the BIOS is ok and also the functions of controller keyboard correctly

    This means that the problem is related to a malfunction internal keyboard. I have no explanation why this happened after the update, but it could be just a bad luck

    In my view, the problem can be solved by the replacement of keyboard.

  • Satellite A300 - keyboard does not work after cold start.

    Hi people,

    I inherited an A300 of questions.

    When you turn on the laptop, the keyboard works at the BIOS level, but once it boots into windows keyboard no longer works. I discovered that by pressing the power button (stop) and then turn the laptop back on brings back the keyboard. (It was in vista).

    Since I did a new install of Windows 7 (removal of all partitions on the disk) and the fault remains, I also installed the added value Pack which did not help.

    Firmware was 1.6 - updated to 1.9; fault remains. I restored the factory settings in the BIOS - fault remains level.

    I installed a copy of Fedora 11 (Linux), that works perfectly.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks for the comments.
    To be honest, I use an external mouse only.

  • Satellite M100 keyboard does not work

    I have a M100 and my keyboard used to work properly, but now it doesn't work at all.
    I havn't had very long and I wonder if there is some kind of lock key on it or if it is just fuck?

    Hello

    Unfortunately there is no key lock so it may be that your keyboard may be defective. Have you ever tried to connect an external keyboard to your machine to check if it works.

    Since there is definitely without a lock, there is a great possibility that you must bring your machine to a service authotized partner to make them fix this error.

  • Satellite 1100 keyboard does not work properly

    My old Satellite 1100 works perfectly, but suddenly the letter 'B' and the space bar don't work at all. I clean under the keys without making a difference. Please check the connection to the motherboard? (Why this should suddenly I don't know failure.)
    I plugged an old keyboard via an adapter to the USB port, but this material is not recognized (although the keyboard lights). Download a driver for my old keyboard from somewhere?
    Any other suggestions?
    Thanks for any help.

    Hello

    First, there is no driver for the keyboard, because it s a main machine and it s connected via PS/2. If a keyboard that is connected to a PS/2 (and even in an internal PS/2 port of the laptop) won´t never ever need a driver.

    And with regard to the two keys: you can try it. There are just a few screws under the lid of the keyboard that needs to be unscrewed;), and finally, you check the cable. If you have not received some success
    a readjustment of the cable, then the keyboard is probably defective. In this case, it would be good to check ebay for parts for example.
    Usually, the reference of the keyboard must be printed on a sticker on the bottom of the keyboard.

    Please give some feedback, when it's...

    Compare the version of the BIOS installed on the laptop with the BIOS which is available on the Toshiba page.
