Satellite Pro L300 - keyboard and touchpad issues

Hello

I just baught my GF a PC Toshiba laptop refurbed for his 21st birthday from a reliable source, it's a Satellite Pro L300.

I started it until all the setup stuff, me there only to find that the keyboard and the touchpad work not AT ALL.
The keyboard caps lock key is not even lights up when I press it.
I downloaded all the latest drivers for EVERYTHING Inc. the touchpad, it makes no difference.

I'm quickly running out of ideas and come to accept the fact that the keyboard and the touchpad is maybe defective and therefore evil must give my GF a defective laptop for Denise 21st, not happy :(

Any1 have any ideas?

Thanks :)

Edit: OK, OK very strange, after that I sent this message, I tried the keyboard once more and it works fine?
Could this be something 2 do with the download of the VFR package?

The touchpad is always tired, even when I try the fn + f9 combo?

2nd edition: Ok now the keyboard stopped working again!

ON EARTH!

Hello

Looks like a keyboard problem. who knows why it doesn t work looks like something would be wrong
I recommend you visit your dealer and replacement request
Otherwise, you may contact the ASP in your country for a fix

I think it's everything you could do

Good luck

  • Satellite A300-1AL - keyboard and touchpad issues after change of OS

    Hello

    I'm looking for suggestions or ideas how to deal with the problem of keyboard and the touchpad, which occurred just after I installed the new operating system. I changed from Windows Vista to Windows 7 and my keyboard and touchpad become inactive after a few minutes of starting the system. It is not serious if I write something or not, the unit works for a short time, then turn off automatically. I tried to find updates the driver but failed to come through what might be the solution. It is difficult to work with the screen keyboard so I hope that you will be able to help me.

    Thank you in advance,
    perkit

    I have Satellite A300-1LI and I installed clean Win7 32-bit using the Microsoft installation disc and all devices are working properly including the keyboard and the touchpad.

    Have you installed Win7 upgrade or clean the Win7 version?
    Have you used Microsoft installation CD?
    In General, keyboard and touchpad must work without any additional driver.

    Hello

    I want to say clearly that portable computers technology design is not the same as on the desktop and if you have a good experience with desktop computers, you'll know that upgrading the graphics cards is not so problematic, but on laptops, the situation is very different.

    Laptops design and construction doesn't allow such flexibility for upgrades, upgrading the graphics card is not possible.

  • Satellite A300-243 - keyboard and touchpad has stopped working

    Hello everyone

    I have a serious problem in my Satellite A300-243. I installed a driver for external keyboard using a CD and once I rebooted both keyboard and touchbpad stopped working and to make any order, when I reached the vista welcome page.
    What should I do because you know that even if I can't get into the windows to uninstall this driver.

    Any way to do during windows startup?

    Hello

    Why you installed a driver for external keyboard? I've never heard of such drivers

    Anyway, you should try to start in safe mode and then you are able to remove driver external keyboard to the list of software. After I restarted in normal mode, the keyboard and the touchpad should work properly again.

  • Satellite 5200 802: keyboard and touchpad not working

    Hello world.

    I was hoping that someone could help me with a problem I have with my 5200-802 Satellite. The keyboard not work DVRs, although it shows in Device Manager and report it as works fine. I updated the BIOS and tried a bunch other things basic suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    It may be useful to mention that I also can't my touchpad driver to register.

    Thank you very much.

    Hello

    Do you have an error message, or have you signs of bed on the screen?
    You can use the keyboard to access the BIOS?
    If yes then the keyboard has been recognized and works!

    If you can not use the keyboard running OS then I recommend to remove the keyboard device in Device Manager and restart the laptop.
    The keyboard should be recognized again after new OS reboot.

    But I think that you will not be able to access the BIOS.
    Due to the fact that the touchpad works too, I imagine that the hardware is defective or there is no connection with the motherboard. Maybe a lose cable

    Maybe you should check this. But note; If you have no experience with laptop technicians. Good bye

    Thank you for the help

    Hello

    It looks like a hardware problem.
    If the warranty is valid, you can contact the ASP in your country for a verification of the material.

    If the warranty is not valid, you can first check if the keyboard cable is properly connected to the motherboard.
    If it s properly connected then a keyboard failure is possible and it would be wise to check if a replacement would help solve this problem.

    Compatible parts can be ordered also from the ASP in your country.

  • Satellite Pro A10 display and DVD issues

    I have a Satellite Pro A10 about 2 1/2 years and have never had a problem with him, but the other day when I tried to watch a DVD, look at a program (InterActual Player) opened as usual and then a few more seconds later the display will change in very low resolution (something like 14 colors, almost a negative and all image was massive Although I don't remember the actual numbers) and he said that I had to reboot in order to return things to normal. I tried the same DVD in Windows Media Player, as well as to try other DVDs and initially that the DVD would play in Media Player but not Interactual but now the same thing happens any DVD or player that I use.

    Also, I went on the computer this morning and got a message saying that the battery is low (although it was because I had not plugged the computer again, nothing to do with the last errors) and the computer is in standby. I plugged in the computer and you press the power button to wake the screen is very dark but visibly pixelated (I think that's the word, he had visible points, as if someone were holding a magnifying glass up to her) and got very slowly brighter until there has been a series of narrow bright stripes, like a giant pixel or a tv test screen.
    This could be a problem with the display drivers (even though I tried to update and we found since I always see a message 'Cannot find the requested string' by the icon for display in the control panel), the screen itself, or something else entirely?

    Sorry it's so long, but I thought it is best to include all the details in case it has been important. I hope someone can help!

    Hello Nicola

    As you know on this path is not easy to say what may be the problem. In my opinion, it is important to see what is happening exactly. I assume that your problem is not caused by the display driver. Try to properly test and notice where the screen is very dark.

    If this problem is repeated again and again that I recommend you backup your data and reinstall the unit with recovery media. On this path of unity will be factory configured and you can see if the problem still occurs. If so, it may be just caused by a malfunction of the equipment.

    Good luck!

  • Re: Satellite Pro L300 - keyboard problem

    Hi all

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L300.
    The original keyboard started acting fuynny after, in my opinion, it was abandoned.
    He began to record two characters on 1 button on a few letters and the '1' key was also acting as the tab key.

    I decided to change the keyboard for a brand new, but nothing helps...
    I'm a bit stuck now to know where to start troubleshooting.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated

    Thank you
    Dave

    > The original keyboard started acting funny after that, in my view, it was abandoned.
    If the laptop has been abandoned or not?
    I think it's very important to know if the laptop has been abandoned or not because the other pieces of equipment that are likely to be affected.
    I mean it would be possible that this keyboard or motherboard controller is affected due to the fall of the laptop.

    I put t think that someone here might be able to help you if the laptop was dropped, then you should ask a technician for a verification of the material may be there is a party who is affected and must be replaced, but material must be checked to know

  • Satellite M40 frozen keyboard - and touchpad frozen

    Hello

    I don't know what's wrong with this laptop, but I got it for a few months and the touchpad has frozen, sent to fix she came back and worked for 24 hours and froze. Could not have another 2 days to get collected and filed so now use an external mouse. 2 days ago the keyboard froze and doesn't work, then it works again for an hour or two the next night and has frozen - no key has nothing, even function keys. It seems to work when the machine is cold.

    What is this connected to the touchpad frozen?

    Anyone know why this is happening?

    Thank you

    Hello

    It seems that this happens if the laptop heats up. He of right?
    Well, you can try to pick you up BONES and check that the issue occurs if the OS is clearly installed.
    If the operating system helps recovery doesn t, it seems that it s something wrong with the hardware.
    In this case your laptop needs a service :(

    Good bye

  • Satellite L500 case, scratches and touchpad issue

    I have just a few problems with my L500.

    I got it for 2 months and I'm pedantic on this issue to the point that it is to be always in a bag when not used or on a desk when he is and I even clean it with a brush.

    Despite all this, looks like I got it for years. There are missing pieces of the case and scratches all over the thing and the small rubber feet or just the other side of the webcam takes off and fall thereafter.

    The mouse pad is also strange things, regardless of the settings I chose for her. Sometimes it won't work on the left side of the screen and will flick off to the right and I have to reboot the machine to make it work properly again or I have to tap several times so that he could do nothing at all or it scrolls crazily and I can't stop.

    Basically, it is under warranty, I am impressed by the fact that he is obviously made of poor quality material and is either damaged when I am taking care of him and I wonder if it is what I can do about it.

    I think abnormal wear is perhaps the case here.

    See you soon

    > Nevertheless, looks like I got it for years. There are missing pieces of the case and scratches all over the thing and the small rubber feet or just the other side of the webcam takes off and fall thereafter.

    Strange hmm what to say my L505 is a few months, but it looks like to buy on the first day.
    No scratch, nothing! Of course, I m safe with this laptop and use a microfibre cloth to clean it. I put t use on the road and I think that this is the reason why it's so pretty plastic covers looks like other common blankets used in other portable models so don t see big differences.

    > The mousepad also does strange things, regardless of the settings I chose for her.

    With regard to the touchpad.
    I think you should take a look in touchpad, configuration settings: Control Panel-> mouse-> device-> settings (or properties) settings
    Here, you can configure the parameters provided by the Synaptics driver.
    Notes; Touchpad uses two drivers: Alps and Synaptics
    If you have any questions, then an update could be recommended.

  • Satellite Pro L300-152 and the task bar freezing

    Hello

    The taskbar seems to freeze whenever I use my laptop. I try to click on something like the volume and it freezes, I then gives me the option to restart windows Explorer, close windows Explorer, or waiting for the program to respond. Once it has rebooted the icons for volume and Wi - Fi connection disappear from the lower right corner and are not available through any other means.

    There seems to be no consistency to this incident - it happens when programs are running or not, regardless of how many times I use the laptop either hours or minutes, and there is no delay between the taskbar being insensitive (sometimes it doesn't freeze again, sometimes it freezes just after the restart). I did virus, spyware/adware/mallware scans, clean my laptop, and it had made no difference.

    All I have this problem or knows what could be causing it and how it can be stopped? Any suggestions would be welcome thanks

    Kind regards.
