  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 L20 - original drive not grateful

  Hello

  Ive looked for forums and the internet in general but was unable to find anything related to my problem.

  Recently, I removed the my Satellite Pro L20 original hard drive and replaced by a spare part just to test another operating system. I didn't wipe my existing windows of the original OS.

  However, now if I place the original hard drive in the laptop, it does not recognize it in the BIOS at all. The original works of disk of 60Go perfectly in an external USB caddy on the laptop, but used in their own country. At first, thought it might be the drive so I bought a new drive of 250 GB, but again, not recognized.

  Reading, I think that the original drive is an EIDE drive and I don't think that the replacement of 12 GB is drive I put in temporarily. Ive also tried reflashing the BIOS, hoping that might solve the problem, but without any luck again.

  Could you get it someone please let me know how to solve this problem?

  Thank you

  Hello

  This s very strange problem you have deleted first disk of 60 GB, then you have reinserted and the BIOS doesn t recognize now 60 GB HARD drive.
  Am I wrong?

  One of my friends had a similar problem. The original internal HDD was not recognized by the BIOS. After a lengthy investigation, he set the BIOS to the default settings and restarted the laptop.

  This helped to recover the HARD drive

• Satellite Pro L100 - DVD will not turn even upward

  My friend gave me an old Satellite Pro L100 PSLA4E 005009EN to look at. He acknowledges not or read the DVD. I tried using multimedia Nero, Cyberlink and VLC players, but they can't watch a DVD. A CD will play without a problem, but a DVD will not yet run abreast.

  When I look in my computer it says that a TSST Corp CD/DVD TS-L632M is installed, but when I look at the edge of the disc itself, it says DVD. R/RW with lightscribe? The software is also the original software yet.
  Since the downloads for this model of Toshiba page, I see that the TSST DVD - RAM drive was equipped initially to the laptop so I'm assuming that a DVD - RW was equipped afterwards?

  I find the hardware changes in device if Manager shows nothing. If I try to update the drivers found nothing? In desperation I tried to reinstall the drivers from the Toshiba site, but it does not help?
  If this is the case why Windows XP does not recognize a DVD - RW?

  If someone sees something I missed please?

  Hey,.

  Different laptops come with a different material maybe if the laptop was supplied with this player, but in my opinion it of important either.

  The fact is if DVD is not recognized it seems to be a hardware malfunction, but what you can do is cleaning the lens of the player with a Microfiber towel. Do it carefully you don't zero or destroy the lens (dust could be on the lens). After that he try again if it will recognize a DVD.

  Otherwise, the disc must be replaced and contact an authorized service provider. Guys can order a compatible drive and replace it. :)

• Shortcut keyboard Toshiba Satellite Pro L300 - properties will not end

  Dear lovers of Toshiba:

  This week, we have installed three new systems of Toshiba Satellite Pro L300 (two L300-153, a L300-156) with recovery media for Windows XP since the L300-156 product (no date on the disc, only two codes: CD 5 124624 and GMR400841EN0).

  The machines are beautiful and very effective, except for one problem: when the logout or shutdown Windows XP, the program called 'The Toshiba keyboard shortcut properties' does not stop automatically and opens a dialog "end program". The user may terminate the program immediately by clicking on the button 'End now' or wait until it to expire, after which the system disconnects or terminate normally.

  We noticed only after the installation of Service Pack 3 on all machines, so I don't know if the problem was present before SP3 has been applied. (We will be definitely check this on the following system and display the result.) Install the rest updates Windows with Service Pack 3 does not resolve the problem. Not more then that uninstall Toshiba Hotkey Utility by installing the package current, freshly downloaded from the Toshiba support area.

  A colleague suggested disabling startup programs. There are two likely choices for this purpose in the startup list + of + msconfig +: * thotkey * and * TFncKy *. Disabling either of these programs allows the disappearance of problem, but the functions of the * Fn keys are lost. The key functions are also lost when uninstalling the Toshiba Hotkey Utility.

  My question is of two parts:
  # Comment this problem be solved permanently, or circumvented (other than to say the customer never disconnect & close always the cover to hibernate)?
  # If there is no solution yet, how can a bug report situate with Toshiba, so I can get them the information they need to solve this problem and establish the responsibility?
  I will continue to post new information here that I acquire until a permanent solution is reached.

  Although this problem seems trivial and 'cosmetic' it's always awkward having to provide new machines customers with such an obvious flaw. It ourselves and Toshiba look bad, especially after that we sold the idea that people avoid problems of this kind to choose a Windows XP on Vista platform.

  Thank you, Robert Phair
  Director.

  > We noticed only after the installation of Service Pack 3 on all machines, so I don't know if the problem was present before SP3 has been applied

  Problems could be caused by Win XP SP3. I've read several times that SP3 could be not entirely compatible with drivers or 3rd tools
  So I guess there is a problem of compatibility between the exe and SP3 files.
  By the way; SP3 is not completely released and updated test!

  I installed SP3 for some tests on my old non-Toshiba laptop and my work LAN card didn't so it of really possible that SP3 causes this.

  > There are two likely choices for this in the msconfig startup list: thotkey and TFncKy. Disabling either of these programs, the disappearance of the problem, but the functions of the Fn keys are lost

  It is clear that the thotkey and TFncKy files belong to applications that control the FN keys, SO if you would disable this in msconfig then buttons would not work.

  So, a solution might be a removal of SP3 System.
  In addition, you should try to clean the registry and operating system using the free tool like CCleaner.

  > Hope to get a response from an engineer from Toshiba, if there is no monitoring of this forum.
  I hope this too, but it seems that this forum is only a user forum.
  So if you want to report this behavior for laptop, contact the Toshiba ASP in your country

  See you soon

• On Satellite Pro L20 battery is not

• Premiere Pro cc 2015 will not launch after putting in

  3 I just updated Premiere Pro cc 2015 via Creative Cloud on Dec 2015

  Then, when I tried to open it, I had this error message:

  The application failed to start properly (0x000001d).

  Reset did not help.

  I am running Windows 7. The Premiere Pro cc2015 worked fine on this machine, so I doubt that the problem due to the plug to my computer.

  Looks like it is caused by a problem with the AMD Phenom processor. Check out this thread:

  Whenever I try to launch the first Pro CC 2015, he pulls up to the splash screen and closes every time. After scouring the internet for possible solutions, the only thing that works so he could start is by disabling the driver Intel(r) HD Graphics 4000 and running off the AMD Radeon HD 8700 M.

  It wasn't a problem when the Windows 8.1, and I made a complete new installation of everything. Any ideas what could be the problem? Is there some kind of fix for this?

• Satellite PRO L70 - A will not access BIOS

  Hello!
  I'm trying to start a UNIX distribution from a USB key, but I can't. I think my problem might be in the BIOS settings, but I can't access the menu configuration.
  I tried to push only F2 by pressing F2 with the key Fn, ESC + F1...

  I need to enter in this menu or another way to be able to get my laptop to check the USB to boot from it.

  Thank you!!

  Thank you for your second comment!

  8 Windows and Windows 8.1 system keeps Notepad by default, but the laptop will be defined in hybrid mode stop. This will start the faster machine, but it prevents you to access the BIOS.
  So in this case, the laptop should be correctly stopped before attempting to access the BIOS.

• Need to reinstall windows, but does not have any CD - Satellite Pro L20

  Hi, I wanted to reinstall Windows XP home on my Satellite Pro L20, but do not have the software that my laptop came with (read the discs lost). I have a valid XP tone (like its stuck on the bottom of my laptop), but no disc so I tired using a copy of a cd of Windows XP home, which did not work, but let me go as far as the formatting of the hard drive.

  So now I use Ubuntu, but want to reinstall Windows. Have valid product key, but no software to reinstall.

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you

  Christopher

  Valid key will not help you. This key belongs to the image recovery and copy included WXP he.
  If you have two options. Either you order original Toshiba recovery image or use Microsoft installations CD key which belongs to this copy. All the necessary drivers, tools and utilities that you can download at Toshiba support page under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com > support & downloads.

  Good luck!

  Did you check if the AC adapter is working properly?
  Initially, the battery is not charged. You must connect the power adapter to recharge the battery.

• Cannot get wireless with my Satellite Pro L20

  My Satellite Pro L20 simply does not recognize my wireless network at home - he can't even see when I search for wireless networks. With my other non-Toshiba laptop on - there was no problem and that captures wireless 4 or 5 in my neighborhood.

  My Tosh works well when he hard plugged on the Net, but if you help get me wireless I would appreciate.

  Are you sure that your laptop is an installation of a WLan minPCI card?
  You can check this in the device under network adapters Manager

  If the wireless network adapter is listed in the device manager then you should check the compatibility of the WLan standards.
  If the wireless network adapter supports only the 802. 11 G standard and your router supports only 802.11 A or 802.11 standard B then you will not be able to connect to the WLan router.
