Satellite M70 - 181:How to unlock the keyboard?

Hello

My laptop Satellite M70 does not accept any input key when Windows has started. I suppose some kind of keyboard lock was accidentally activated. Anyone know how to unlock the keyboard?

Thank you!

Hello

Check if the LED under the F10 or / and F11 keys lights.
If yes then disable this feature with the FN + F10 or + F11 key combination

  • Satellite L350-24U: how to clean the keyboard after having poured orange juice

    Hello out there.
    I spilled my L350-24U with Orange juice.
    Now, I have 4 keys to self-retaining :-(

    Can someone tell me how to clean the keyboard without damaging the laptop?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hmm, it's still a stupid situation
    Usually you can remove the keyboard of the laptop very easily.
    The keyboard is fixed with screws hidden under thin plastic cover near the line of F1 - F12 key.

    If you would remove plastic this cover then you would be able to remove the screws as well. Then you could lift the keyboard carefully and could disconnect the flat cable of the keyboard and the motherboard.

    Notes; two small latches on both sides of the connector must be moved in order to disconnect the cable.

    Then you could remove the keyboard and could clean it with a damp lint.
    PS: the caps can be removed too.
    But be very careful. You must raise the CAP to get it for free.

    There are many videos on youtube...

    Hello Bob

    The keyboard replacement procedure is almost on all Toshiba laptops. At, first of all it must remove the cover above the keyboard (where the buttons are placed).

    After doing this to remove the keyboard is very easy.

    BTW: is your laptop under warranty? Please be careful about this.

  • Satellite P750-13F - how to activate the keyboard backlit on Windows 8

    Hello!

    Today, I installed Windows 8 premium on my P750-13F, which features a backlit keyboard. In order to upgrade to Windows 8 I had to uninstall certain Toshiba drivers and other programs.

    Now, I have fully functional Windows 8, but I don't know how to access the functions of FN key (screen brightness, wifi power button, volume up/down).

    Now that the FN key is innoperative function that I miss the most is that for illumination of the keyboard, because I can still do everything else by other methods (I mean volume up/down, brightness etc) but I don't know how to illuminate the keyboard now.

    I tried to install the Toshiba hardware configuration utility, but it will not install with Windows 8. I like so much if the FN key remains innoperative (although that would be nice if it would not) but what I really want to be able to change the lighting of the keypad.

    I'll be very grateful for any ideas.

    Up to Toshiba doesn t offer Win8 tools and utility there is nothing you can do about it. I hope that will happen very soon.
    So please be patient until the stuff of Win8 will be offered for download.

  • Satellite M70-309: how to clean the LCD?

    Hello world!

    I have Satellite M70-309, so how do I clean finger LCD, dust, ecc... ?

    Thank you!

    Hello Rocco,

    Usually mine clean with a slightly damp cloth (wipe softly on the surface) and then just dry with a cloth. This command removes all the dust and finger marks.

    I also used a normal domestic surface cleaning spray (used sparingly) applied with a cloth and this removes any greasy fingerprints that can be on the screen.

    It is very important to not to use cleansers, abrasives or solvents as they may damage the surface of the LCD screen.

    Kind regards

  • Satellite P300 - 271 - how to replace the keyboard?

    Hello
    I have a Satellite P300 - 271 and there are a few damaged keys. I bought a new keyboard for this laptop.

    Is there a caraa how do I replace the keyboard?

    Greets, Benjamin

    Hi Benjamin,

    As far as I know that these manuals are not for the public. Technicians certified for laptop only can download these manuals. You can download the normal user manual that came with your laptop.

    A friend told me to replace the keyboard to remove the keyboard first, support but it s fixed by screws on the underside. After that, you can remove the keyboard but be careful with the cable.

    Disassembly of the laptop is a little tricky. If you n t have experience with that you should ask a technician for laptop help.

  • Satellite M70 354: how to change the display?

    Hello!
    My TFT-Display of my Satellite M70 354 is physically broken. So I need a new. The Servicepartner costs of a new view without working time are EUR 450,-(!). It's too.

    Is a change to myself as possible, or is it very difficult? On Ebay, I found a screen, compatible with an M70... What is important in changing the display?

    Maybe you can help me.
    Thank you!

    You should know that the display is one of the parties outside the laptop computer motherboard expensive.
    The costs are huge, as you can see. Of course the 450 bugs is too but it is a new LCD and additional, you will pay for the technician.

    That is why it s a good idea to look for second hand unit. The replacement of the screen is a little tricky. You must remove the plastic frame that attaches around the screen.
    The display is usually fixed with 6 screws and connected to the Board of Directors and FL inverter.

    I think that you should not replace yourself. I see that you have no much experience on these replacements. So the best idea is to buy a second hand laptop but then to ask a technician for replacement.

  • Satellite M70-151 - how to upgrade the display driver?

    Hello

    as the topic says I ran out of options to update my graphics card Radeon X 700 on my laptop...

    I tried to see here: http://de.nodevice.com/driver/Mobility_Radeon_X700/get44199.html
    After installation, I learned that he had to go on the manufacturer's site to get my drivers

    So I ended up here: http://de.computers.toshiba-europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp?service=DE
    Still no idea who was the Radeon X 700 driver, I tried every update... Most did not anyway, and when I check my graphics card driver put in says that my current driver was 5 years old.

    Taking advantage of the distraction of the online games I noticed that went it a few seconds sometimes. Most people recommend that you update all my drivers, but it seems more difficult than I imagined

    So please, help me find the right link to update my graphics card! To help speed things up a bit, I added my DxDiag report.

    Thanks for your help

    Hi Sarahbella,

    You can download the driver on the Toshiba site. Therefore, check the link you suggested and look for your model of laptop. As far as I know Satellite M70 151 belongs to the series of PSM71E, to look for with these elements:

    Laptop > Satellite > Satellite M Series > Satellite M70 (PSM71)

    Download the driver and run the setup.exe file.

    Check this box!

    Hello

    I think that you have accidentally activated the Num Lock
    NumLock key is used to convert a portion of the main keyboard to act as a pad instead of the letters.

    Usually you can find the info in your manual how to toggle NumLock
    In my case, I have to press Fn + F11 (in some cases FN + F12) to get that license.

  • Re: Satellite A10-S100 - how to replace the keyboard?

    I need to replace the card key of my Satellite A10-S100.

    What are the steps I should follow? I have to unscrew all the screws in the back?

    Hi mate,

    You never exchanged a keyboard or any other part of the equipment of a laptop? Well, maybe you should ask a technician for laptop help

    I m not Satellite A10 owner but normally you remove the keyboard first (between the keyboard and display) bracket. Under the keyboard support, you will find a few screw now the keyboard. Remove them and then you can lift the keyboard but be Ume with the cable on the underside of the keyboard.

    Good luck! :)

  • Satellite P200-1EE - how to replace the keyboard

    Ive just bought a replacement for my P200-1EE keyboard, I have an idea but how to replace, anyone know?

    Hello

    The keyboard is fixed with four screws that are hidden under the cover of the thin plastic strip above the buttons of the F1 to F12 keys keyboard.
    You may need to remove this plastic cover to gain access to the screws.
    But you must be careful because it could break.

    The keyboard is connected to the motherboard with a flat cable.
    First disconnect in order to remove the keyboard.

    But note; If your warranty is valid you should not try this because it might void the warranty.

    How to replace a keyboard on a L305D-S5904? My keyboard has been damaged and there is no option but in replaces it.

    Hello!

    Normally, you can remove the keyboard if you first remove the keyboard cover. Then you should see 2 screws holding the keyboard. Remove the two screws and now you can remove the keyboard, but don't forget to remove the keyboard cable too.

    Disassembly of the laptop is a little tricky and if you don't know how to make a laptop technician should ask for help.
    If your laptop is under warranty, the repair should be free.

    Good bye

    Hello

    I have an A665-147, and I want to change the cpu voltage and other things to improve my battery life.
    But in the BIOS, you can do nothing. I remember my old PC that you could unlock the Advanced mode by pressing alt + F1.

    Could someone help me?
    I'm sorry for my English french

    Sorry but there is no help. These options of don t exist in the BIOS.
    If you want to improve the battery life you must reduce energy consumption.
    To that effect, Toshiba has designed eco-utility.

    Using this utility, you can use laptop with little longer than usual battery power supply.
