• Satellite M40: HARD drive not working after laptop computer trasported turned upside down

  My Satellite M40 is facing a strange problem: whenever I have transport (for example, in the trunk of my car) backwards instead of in his natural position or vertically, after the transport, the HD does not work for a few hours. The BIOS does not see the HD because it is not present at all. After a few hours of rest, without moving, if you try to turn on the PC again, the HD magically comes to work again backwards.

  My HD is made with soda water? :)

  Talk seriously... What do you think it is?

  Hi franz

  Not easy to say what it is, or why it happens. Maybe it? s a bad connection of the HARD disk.
  I guess that this happens because of the agitation in the car.
  Well, I don? don't know if it helps but you can try to check the connection of the HARD disk.
  The second possibility to use another HARD disk. It might be because there is something wrong with the HARD drive.

• Satellite M30: FN keys not working not not after installing IE7

  I installed IE7 and noticed that the fn keys no longer work. (Satellite M30)
  I don't know if it was the catalyst because I do not know how long the problem has been.

  The only ones I use often are FN + f6 and f7 +.
  I really need to be able to adjust the brightness of the screen. Any help would be appreciated.

  Thank you.

  Hello

  First lights up the screen can be changed also in the Toshiba Power Saver utility.

  But it s very strange that, after the IE7 update the FN keys stopped working. I installed the IE7 on my laptop, and the FN keys still work very well.

  So maybe it of a simply wrung something in the registry. Who knows?  :|
  I recommend reinstalling the common Modules.

  Maybe it helps!

• Satellite P850 - FN keys not working not

  I recently bought a PC Toshiba laptop p850/049 and reformatted it for windows 7 64 x (from windows 8). After installing all the software Toshiba etc. everything worked fine but recently I noticed that the special function keys have stopped working. They certainly worked after I reformatted the computer because I remember the first time annoyed that whenever I went to refresh a webpage (f5) it would pass the trackpad as I was not familiar with the new configuration.

  I thought that the problem may be due to software "Logitech setpoint" I installed but I uninstalled since and the problem remains. Then I tried to uninstall and then reinstall the added value of packet and HW installation software and then check all card flash/keyboard settings.

  Then I tried to check the BIOS setting with no luck. No matter what setting I put it to the special keys do not work. When I "special function keys" value and press function buttons, the keypad lights up but nothing happens, in this mode if I press fn + function keys, they work in their normal mode IE spell check or refresh or full screen, etc. When I have it value "normal f1-12 function keys" the same applies to this f5 refreshes successfully, but fn + f5 does nothing. I tried to play with the settings in accessibility and HW set up and flash cards and in the BIOS without effect (it seems that change the HW set up and bios configuration change from the other and vice versa).

  It seems no matter what I set it on the keyboard seems to be impossible to access the option special function keys. I recently got sp1 under win 7 x 64, this could be a part of the problem? I'm not entirely sure when keys doesn't work but I don't know they worked after reformatting to windows 7.

  any help would be appreciated

  Hello

  Did you restart the utility of Flash Cards, which can be found under:
  All programs-> Toshiba-> restart Flash Cards

  In addition, you must also install the utility Support Flash Cards next to the VAP (value added package)

  This utility can be found here:

• Satellite A130: Fn key not working only not with Vista - only FlashCards

  Hello

  I've been looking around in the forums, but I couldn't find solutions to my problem.

  I have a satellite A130 and I am running a windows VISTA family Basic. I have a problem with my fn functions.
  I can only use flash on the top of my screen cards, just by dragging my mouse upwards on the top of my screen.

  The key works only when I start my computer, at startup, but when the computer is running, there is no other "fn", I could use but my mouse to show my flash cards and use them.

  Is there something else I could do?
  Thank you

  I have same situation, remove the starting windows for the form Flash cards and you have no pictures at the top of the desctop, but keys will work.

• Satellite M40-276 - memory not detected in the Bios upgrade

  Hi people!

  New kid on the block!

  I have a client with a toshiba Satellite m40-276. I've updated his memory to give it a little more to play with...

  Went into the bios to see if everything was OK but no projected additional memory. I removed the new and old memory and put in the new 1 GB module and restart the computer.
  The bios has not yet changed the size of the old memory?

  Went to windows and of course that the memory has been detected it normally?
  I added the other memory module and went into the bios again, but no change it?

  Windows, however, recognized that the two modules?

  His computer is the same bios to factory and has never been updated.

  My questions are... why the bios doesn't recognize the upgrade memory? It will help in upgrading the bios?

  Enjoy all the suggestions I can get on this issue.

  Thank you

  Generally, if you upgrade RAM using tested compatible modules, that should be recognized correctly.
  We do not know what modules you use, and I guess that there is a compatibility issue.

  RAM on Satellite M40 276 can scale up to 2 GB of RAM and compatible modules are:
  DDR2 400/533 256 MB (PA3389U - 1 M 25)
  512 MB DDR2-400/533 (PA3412U - 1 M 51)
  1 GB OF DDR2 400/533 (PA3411U-1M1G)

• Satellite M40-225 does not Windos 7 or Vista?

  Hey,.
  I am trying to install Windows 7 on my Toshiba Satellite M40-225, but it does not start after installation. After completing the installation of Windows will try to start for the first to say "prepare your computer for his first start" then after 5 seconds or it will restart and do the same thing again...

  The same problem also happens with Windows Vista.

  If you have any ideas it would be much appreciated. I thought maybe the RAM, but it passes all Diagnostics, even with the hard drive.

  This model of laptop is not designed for Vista or Win7 and equipment do not correspond to the requirements and standards for the two operating systems.

  Do you know how old is Satellite M40?
  To be honest, I really wonder that you try to install the newest OS on this old laptop model.

• Satellite M40: message: can not play because the DVD decoder is not installed

  not serious... I am back... I did a little reading and tried to read another cd in the drive and the message came to say "can't play because the dvd decoder is not installed, so I guess that's the problem because I have a recovery * DVD *.» Anyone know where I can find a dvd for a Satellite M40 decoder?

  > can't play because the dvd decoder is not installed
  This message appears if you want to play DVD movies with an application like Windows Media Player that has no (plug-in) installed DVD decoder.
  Usually the DVD can be played with special programs like WinDVD or PowerDVD for example!

  But this DVD decoder has nothing to do with the Toshiba Recovery DVD and the fact your new DVD Player cannot read the recovery DVDs.

• Satellite A100: FN keys not working not not on Windows XP

  Hi there, Im new to this, so hopefully someone can help.
  Some time ago my hard drive had serious problems and I replaced it.

  But with that I also had Windows XP like some things that I really didn't like about vista.

  Anyway, since then my function keys on the 'F' keys and my media keys on the left side of the laptop are not working, can anyone suggest to me what I can do?

  If it is a driver or something there, and if so, where can I get it?

  Hello

  First of all, you should check your model number of the laptop.
  The European driver Toshiba page provides drivers for five different sets of Satellite A100!
  In order to choose one that fits!

  If you want to use the FN buttons please ensure that your common Toshiba Module driver has been installed! This is important. In addition the Hotkey Utility must be installed as indicated by the above user.

  Toshiba button near the power button are controlled by the Toshiba driver controls!

  I think that these drivers should help you get the laptop works properly.

  Hello

  You must install VAP (value added package) and Flash memory card Support utility.
  Since these two tools are not related to a specific model laptop, try the tools available for Satellite L500 series.
  I tried and it worked!

  Hello

  May I ask what Windows system you use?
  The FN keys are controlled by special software Toshiba, but it depends on the Windows installation.

  For example: using Win 7, you need to install the package of value added of Toshiba UE driver page.
