Satellite P300 - strange problem with num lock keys

I had a problem with my keyboard lock num. I have a P300D - 131

By pressing '4' and '8' at the same time, it shows on the screen '4 '.

By pressing "0" and "6" at the time, tamed, it shows on the screen "0 0".

This also happens if I touch the very fast numbers. That's why you can't count on the num lock keys! I have this problem since I bought the laptop in July 2008. Now, I found this forum and I hope that really that someone can help me solve this issue!

Thank you
HDW

Hello

These issues in the past have been resolved with BIOS update. I therefore recommend as a first step of the BIOS update.
Check the current version on your laptop and the most recent proposed on the Toshiba download page.

To be honest I don't understand why you waited so long on this subject. Laptop warranty valid and the nearest Toshiba authorized maintainer can help you about this.

  • Satellite L850 - 1 H 4 - a strange problem with the FN key

    Hello

    I have a strange problem on my laptop. When I uninstall my PVAT my start "FN" key works, when I install it it s not working not properly. Its market not only the volume key (F9 and F10) without pressing the "Fn", if I want to press F9 or F10 I have to press FN + F9, even with the rest of the buttons.

    When I install PVAT I have to press FN, so I can use my F keys (e.g. F3 to search on the browser tool, alt + f4 - I have to press Fn + alt + f4), and I can't use real functions like mute, disable Touchpad etc. Use the volume keys only. Y at - it a problem if I run my computer without PVAT, this may affect its performance?

    Where could be the problem and can I fix it? I'm with Windows7 x 64, but the laptop was with no OS when I bought it. And there is a problem with this version, I bought its impossible to install the Pakc3 Service, it s with SP1, can be the problem? I put t know what to do... perhaps I run the laptop without PVAT, sounds good, because the buttons work fine without it, but I don't know if it interacts with something else.

    Thanks in advance!

    Its possible to use the function buttons by pressing another button without the use of the fn or FN.
    This option can be changed in the BIOS.

    Go to the BIOS by pressing F2.
    In the BIOS, choose Advanced-> system configuration Options
    Here you should find the option that allows to change the special function keys which allows you to use the function FN or without button Fn button

  • Satellite A350 - strange problem with hitatchi HTS ATA 320 GB HARD DRIVE

    Recently bought a Toshiba Satellite A350 - still under warranty.

    My problem started with gel/delay of Windows whenever I transferred specific files.
    I found that a lot of my files are the same; It's then that I transfer or open these files - this can take 10 minutes to load crash, then displays a corruption error
    During this phase:
    The hard drive makes a slow repetitive scratching sound
    The laptop hangs for an average of 10 minutes before returning to a usable state - I found more than 15 files and suspect many more that are corrupt.
    I suspect a faulty hard drive, like the check disk crashes and my system hangs whenever I open / transfer of these files.

    I tried to reformat and install the new OS, but always check disk crashes and I lost a lot of important files, because they became unusable.

    Is there something I can do to remedy this
    or
    If the hard disk is defective, Toshiba will replace?

    BTW - I m in Australia.

    Hello

    Exciting announcement, but it will be interesting to know how exactly you do and what kind of data are responsible for this. I want to say I use laptop computers and can not say that some of the data makes my crazy HDD.

    If you really think that there is a problem with the disk HARD nearest Toshiba authorized service provider contact. They will check the functionality of the HARD drive, and if there is a serious hardware problem, you will get a new. Of course for free.

  • Satellite P300-156 - problem with drivers ATI 3470

    I have download the new catalyst 9.3, I exceeded the drivers with mobility modder, but always after the installation, the pilots see 3470 drivers only 3450.
    What is happening and why Toshiba is not updating the drivers for Satellite P300 on the site?

    Hello!

    The reason is the reason for which you are trying to use a driver that is designed for desktop graphics cards and not for laptops.
    It s on your own risk to use these drivers because they don t have a protection against overheating.

    In your case I remove and install the most recent that you can find on the Toshiba site:

In any case if the same question is noticed by many other users of laptop I don't see any solution here. It seems that the problem is not caused by laptop faulty or something similar. If your laptop works well, you game homepage and see if there is a solution.

  • Satellite L670 - strange problems with HDMI connection

    Hello

    I experience problems when you use the hdmi connection:

    My computer: Satellite L670

    Scope: Watch movies on the LCD external (sony bravia) via hdmi

    Computer param: Clone computer - screen plugged - features full power - the screen of the laptop has been set in order to let the computer works normally when closed.

    When you play a movie with the laptop open screen, no problems. I have twice the movie, one on the computer screen and the clone on my external LCD. Perfect.
    But if I close the laptop screen (which would normally have no effect), lagging behind the film on the external display. He stops each 5 seconds for a few seconds and leaves, making it unreadable.

    Did someone had such a problem? Any suggestions?

    Your help will be appreciated.

    If you need to know everything, just ask; (o)

  • Satellite P300-150 - problems with HDMI output

    I recently reformatted my hard drive due to a nasty virus. I now put my old favourate XP Pro with service pack 3. Never had very well with Vista.
    I managed to find almost all the drivers, I think I need, but the HDMI does not work and I can't seem to find the HDMI for XP/Vista Manager only. XP is too old to support HDMI?

    Is their a fix or a piece of software that will lead the material in an XP environment?

    Hi markjj,

    Normally you n t need a special driver for the HDMI connection. It is only important to install the driver from Toshiba Web site viewing. After that, you can use the HDMI connection and switch between monitors when you press FN + F5. It s the same procedure as in Vista or other operating systems.

    So have you ever tried on XP HDMI connection?

    Test and give us some information. If it doesn't we can try to solve this problem. :)

  • Satellite U300 - strange problem with volume control wheel

    I bought a U300 last week and I find that the volume control wheel doesn't move very easily. It seems that you have to push it slightly to adjust the volume, and when you release your finger, the volume goes in the direction you moved to slowly. Everyone knows this?

    In addition, when pressures above the express card slot the housing compresses. This happens on all the U300s?

    I would go back to the store I bought in and ask, but I live quite some distance from him so I thought I'd see if anyone here could help first. All responded very appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    Looks like the wheel is stuck and something around the wheel blocks the volume wheel. I think the best idea is to return the machine as you said, since it s very unusual described what you´ve.

    You can also send your machine to a service partner chartered for an assessment of health/repair of equipment.

  • Hello, please help me. I use a power keyboard for my laptop. I see in the new keyboard is equipped with a num lock key is turned on. I can't use on it please help me disable it. I do not use a NumLock on. Thank you

    Hello, please help me. I use a power keyboard for my laptop. I see in the new keyboard is equipped with a num lock key is turned on. I can't use on it please help me disable it. I do not use a NumLock on. Thank you

    You say that when you press the NUM LOCK key, the Numlock State does not change (if enabled to disabled and vice versa)?  Have you tried to unplug the keyboard and by ensuring that the keyboard of the laptop does not have enabled Numlock?  If so, turn it off on the laptop keyboard and reinsert the another keyboard and see if the problem is resolved.

    If you do not need the Numlock key, it can be disabled at startup with the following procedure:http://www.technipages.com/enabledisable-numlock-at-login-or-startup.html. Once this is done, I don't think he's going to turn on or off and that they the keyboard will start in the off position.  You will not be able to use the key yourself or another, but maybe the problem she is on (which is worse than it to be impossible to be turned on) will be resolved and I hope it will be enough for you.

    If the key does not work and you want to be able to use it, the keyboard may be defective.  Try the keyboard on another computer and see if you have the same problem.  If so, the keyboard is defective and must be replaced.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • Satellite C850 - found problems with the networking and the FN key

    Hey everybody,

    I work on a Satellite Toshiba C850, that my parents recently bought and spin in a certain number of questions.

    (1) wireless won't connect to my network. Have done the following: verified by connecting on two other computers, reset the router, the open network, reset the map, reinstalled the realtek drivers, checked the settings in the networking of Toshiba Utilities. End result is he's going to try, and fail. Wired LAN works fine.

    (2) FN key does not work. Have you checked the region and it is OK, have tried to use the Flash cards - no change, checked with the screen keyboard and can check the FN key does not register.

    I noticed that the first problem is common, but there are obvious positive results. If anyone can offer any assistance, I would appreciate it a lot.

    Before you begin to discuss your problems can you please tell us what OS you are using?
    Are you using the original OS that you got with your laptop? I mean original recovery image has been tested and works correctly, with the factory settings that all should especially the FN keys.

    1 / What do you mean with refusing? your WLAN is visible for your laptop?

    2 / if there is problem with the feature keys FN and you use Win7 try please reinstall extra package from Toshiba.
