  • Keyboard broken on Satellite Pro 410cdt? Erroneous characters are shown

    Hello guys, my oldies Satellite Pro 410 CDT notebook, with BIOS updated to 6.20, which I am trying to install in the w98se SO. I have a few problems I cannot solve:

    1. I formatted a 4.3 GB of a booklet of 70 TB HDD, into two partitions of 814 MB and another with the rest. In partition D, the major one that I copied all 410 as w98se drivers for its installation. These options I did in the Pc with Partion Magic Tower and the Explorer of Windows XP.

    Reinstalled HARD drive in 410 CDT, the screen shows me the following message is displayed:

    "THIS BASE WAS ABANDONED BECAUSE THIS MACHINE DOES NOT HAVE ROM BASIC, I USED TOSHIBA BASIC.
    However many I looked there manual reference is not made to this message, can they tell me that this happens?

    2. when I format the HARD drive in another Pc I need to book a space in so that it is a system to make its copies in hibernation? That is, in the booklet of 70 to 100, they save 32 MB at the end of the HARD drive. Everything I need to resevar for 410 cdt and in this place?

    3 when I start one laptop with a windows 98 without ramdisk boot disk, which allows me to load the most basic thing in MSDOS, I check that the keyboard isn't as must, that is to say, some of the keys they show on the screen characters that do not match them, others prove two or three at the same time not do anything about it either by supporting the fixed cursor, for example, rely on the 'DIR', the display shows "dioprt" keys, back, he is not yet, if I press the button Y on screen PY appear, and if I messing P also apararece ON PY, etc..

    4. when I installed the HARD drive it into one that before she had installed W98SE in my PC, there seemed no point message 1, but once the loaded WORD of the keyboard also met as described in point 3.

    The truth is portable it wants to recover for office work and a little more, and depues of enough hours I could not solve all the problems commented. Please, if you can help me I would be eternally grateful.

    Thank you and best what is the Spain.
    Pako.

    Hello

    I m not 100% from one point because I've never seen this error message but I studied in the internet and somewhere has suggested that this error may whether or not poster because the boot partition was not enabled Active.

    2.) I don't think that you need to book anywhere on the HARD disk for hibernation mode. Hibernation mode all data and settings are saved in the local file. It s a part of the operating system.

    3.) for me it's not easy to tell if the keyboard is bad or only the software environment can not detect the functionality of the keys properly. To make sure if the keyboard is working properly you should test in the Windows operating system

    Hi Olbur

    I didn't find any official document on this subject, as you say, known issue. Can you please send a link?

    I have the Satellite L20 and there is not much difference for Satellite Pro L20 and I have no such problems, but I'm interesting about this. The L20 keyboard is not the best one, but all the characters are not displayed correctly. Maybe you type fast. ;)

  • Satellite Pro A210 - keyboard and touchpad stop working after hibernation

    I installed Windows 7 (32 bit) on my Satellite Pro A210 and have a similar problem. When it starts OK but after hibernation the keyboard and touchpad stop working after 3 minutes. The only way to fix it is a re-boot of the force.

    Anyone have any ideas?

    Hello

    You have installed all the drivers for your laptop? I mean especially the chipset driver.
    Check this box!

    If you have yellow exclamation points in Device Manager, you must install all the missing drivers.

    Last but not least don't forget to install all Windows 7 updates available that you can get thorugh Windows Update.

    Sorry, but that's all I can say at the moment

    Install the check and image recovery again if the situation is the same. If the problem persists contact your local dealer, explain the situation and ask for Exchange.

  • Satellite Pro C50 keyboard problems - A - 1 L 6

    Hello

    I just bought this new Satellite Pro.

    I have installed all the drivers and updated the bios to the latest version, but I still have the same problem: when I write, many times my keyboard writes double letters (for example, all ten words written keyboard a letter double, as "keybboard").

    I tried also to change the properties of the keypad on the control panel of Windows 8, but nothing has changed.

    I called support, but they just told me that I have to bring my laptop in a helpdesk: but I need my new computer to work, and I wouldn't be happy to lose at least 4 weeks!

    And, support told me that, if the laptop has no hardware problem, I would have to pay for assistance...
    .
    So, this is my first experience and unlucy in the world of Toshiba...
    Is there someone who can give me some advice to solve this problem?
    It may be a problem running on the new laptops, and someone knows how to fix this?

    Thank you very much!

    Hi guys,.

    As far as I know that these similar keyboard problems in the past could be resolved by the BIOS updated.
    I found the new BIOS for Satellite Pro C50 - A
    http://Support1.toshiba-tro.de/Tedd-files2/0/BIOS-20140912105436.zip
    Worth a try

    Another question: If someone has done to test a USB external keyboard?
    In the case where the external USB keyboard would work correctly, this issue isn't associated with BIOS or keyboard controller but probably his keyboard fault internal.

  • Satellite Pro C660 - keyboard problems

    This issue is one for computer laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro C660-1UX running Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1.

    Some of the keys on Board (E, T, U, I, O, A, B, N, and the Enter key) fail to register.
    All keys tested so far seem to register normally.

    When you connect an external USB keyboard, all the keys work properly. When you use the integrated keyboard or external USB keyboard, however, pressed some key is selected for about 2-3 seconds so that his character register. This makes typing incredibly slow and is naturally unacceptable.

    I checked the Manager of devices looking for errors, but can't find one. The keyboard driver is classified properly installed and functional, and driver update indicates that the latest version is in already in service.

    I've also scanned for viruses using Spybot and Malware bytes and also with laptops own antivirus software pre-installed. All the analyses of the entire system refer a none found the message of threat.

    I read that the keyboards on these machines can sometimes be problematic, which could respond only to edge, some function keys. The fact that all the external USB keyboard keys work seems to confirm this. However, the fact that the keyboard both onboard and external is affected by the same slow pressure might also suggest a bios problem - but that this laptop computer is several years old and working perfectly, why bios suddenly would cause this problem.

    I visited the Toshiba site and based on this laptop with the part number: PSC0ME-02100SEN, I have concluded (rightly or wrongly) that the correct bios download version is 1, 70 - WIN, only when I read the following installation instructions http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/HTD9502M10000R01.htm bios
    I became quite concerned, like installing the bios update seems far from simple.

    Does anyone know if it is possible to download and install the bios right through an update automated versus manual download and installation step by step, which, if not carried out as planned, could make the laptop completely unusable.

    Has anyone reading this post experienced similar problems with this make and model laptop and was able to return successfully to the good operating condition. If so, how?

    All constructive advice would be welcome.

    > When you connect an external USB keyboard, all keys work correctly.

    This means that the keyboard controller is OK and the internal keyboard is defective.
    To resolve this problem of keyboard, internal keyboard needs to be replaced.

    > However, the fact that the keyboard on board as external is affected by the same keypress slow could also suggest a bios problem - but this laptop computer is several years old and works perfectly, why bios suddenly would cause this problem.

    Hmm I n t think so
    The keyboard delay can be bound to parameters.
    You can check this in the control panel-> keyboard

  • Satellite Pro C850 keyboard does not work properly and opens several programs

    My satellite pro C850 1HE keyboard intermittently stops working correctly, and begins to open programs, for example, by pressing F will open the file search, C open computer this kind of thing

    is there a permanent solution to this problem?

    This is not something to do with installed programs is not something to do with the browser settings.
    restarting the computer works in a short time, but that is a long time, it's really annoying because I use this for work and study!

    > is there a permanent solution to this problem?

    The question is what causes this problem? Is it related hardware or software related issue?

    Why n t connect a USB keyboard just to check if the same would happen?

    In case the USB keyboard would work fine, I guess that the internal keyboard failures and the solution would be a simple replacement of the defective part.

  • Satellite Pro M10 displays the characters currupt at startup

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro M10 that collapsed. When the system boots, the Toshiba logo seems to have a few points here and there. When displaying messages on the screen during startup, the characters seem corropted. For example, the message "Insert system disk", I and T of the insertion of the word seems to be half upper ASCII characters. The system S is the "less than or equal to sign." and the k of the scratch disk is {.} I already did the following:

    -tried to start with one of my two memory card and I tried the two memory cards.
    -swapped my memory card.
    -reloaded windows and Linux

    I have dropped it once but worked OK for a month after I dropped it. I deleted the operating system, but now seems to have problems to load a CD operatig system (CD works OK). Anyone have an idea what is wrong?

    Thank you
    Peter Loo

    Hello

    You suggested that the cell phone dropped twice.
    Well, you can try to connect the external monitor to the laptop to see if it s a screen failure or malfunction of the graphics card.

    You have problems with the installation of the OS? Maybe there's something wrong with the disk and the HARD disk. But maybe only loses connection is responsible for the problems. Check the pins.

    It is possible that the screen and other devices was damage due to falling down.

  • Satellite Pro M40x: Keyboard issues

    Satellite Pro M40Z - failure keyboard developed in the sixth month, I bought the laptop. Any body facing similar problems with Satellite Pro European version?

    In my opinion if you have problems with your keyboard if you need to contact Toshiba service. I guess that your laptop is under warranty and any replacement should be done for free.

  • Satellite Pro A300-1OP - Missing FEPs disk partition E:\

    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro A300-1OP with Windows Vista.

    The hard disk is partitioned into C:\ and E:\, each about 75 GB with a hidden options of system recovery partition. E: / shows that about 5MB, left free while C:\ shows 28GB. However, the list of files/folders to E: / shows a total of about only 10 GB. I put the hidden files & folders to be displayed in the Control Panel/appearance but no more are listed to explain the "disappeared" 65GB. I also have a warning window telling me to free up space in E:\ drive to appear.

    What is the problem and how to fix it? I run Disk Cleanup, but get more no free space.

    I am quite often here on this forum and I always wonder what kind of problems people have with their laptops.
    If you created the recovery DVDs move all the files to the C partition and start the computer management > disk management. Deleting a volume E second partition). After having this recreate and do the full format.

    It will be interesting to know if the partition will display correctly after that. If so, move all the data back and hope that everything will be OK again.
    Please note: after doing this, it may happen that you will not be able to create recovery DVD or use HARD drive recovery facility then please do this if you created DVDs.

  • Satellite L670-1J0 - keyboard missing letters guard

    Hello.

    It started to happen a few days ago and I recently bought this laptop about 4 weeks ago. Anyway, whenever I type, keyboard guard running out of letters, symbols, and spaces. It doesn't seem to be a pattern whose lettters etc. are left out. It looks like a delay between each letter while typing / keyboard is slow to respond.

    Any ideas?

    Thank you.

    Hey,.

    I think that in this case why you use an older version of BIOS. On the Toshiba Web site, there is an update to resolve this problem:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/innovation/download_drivers_bios.jsp

    But I m wondering about your question. Have you done a search forum before? I found a lot of discussions with the same behavior and update the BIOS has always been the solution for this problem:
