Satellite Pro L500 keyboard does not

My Satellite Pro L500 keyboard has sudenly stopped working, how to run other than a remote keyboard?

> keyboard has suddenly stopped working

You didn t post lots of details about the keyboard, but I think there could be a simple hardware malfunction that can be solved only by the replacement of internal keyboard.

    > 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 6100 keyboard does not work properly after repairs

    Hello

    My 6100 Pro Sam just being away from usual mother board and power Board replacement with Toshiba, but now I have a strange keyboard problem.

    When I turn it on, all the keys are working. After a few minutes, '3' is not working, then 'r' fails, then '5', ' 7 ', ' 8',' 9 ', ' 0' to stop working. At this point, I can feel something very hot under the middle of the keyboard. A reboot and no keys work. Another reboot with the internal keyboard and an external keyboard to the PS2 is still defective (some keys work, others do not), but the outer one works properly.

    Now, if the pc has not obtained if hot as the middle of the internal keyboard, then, I would conclude that the keyboard was defective, but for his failure, slowly and sequentially like this and it fails at the same way every day (since Toshiba rebuild it!).

    Perhaps, internal keyboard controller overheating?
    Anyone know what this could be? :-(

    See you soon,.

    Right under the keyboard of your pro 6100 is the VGA graphics controller (the keyboard cable plugs on the same map). It is normal that this part become hot during use.

    It is strange that your problem appears after a while and not immediately.

    It could be just a bad relocation of the keyboard cable (it's a thin layer as a movie negative photo) which easily appears there, but... it may be something more serious, too. (Especially since you had done upgrade where the material had to be changed)

    I consult the service centre once more and ask for instructions how to deal with this. Do not ignore it (using an external keyboard instead of internal dysfunction) because he could end up in something more serious soon...

  • Satellite L500 - keyboard does not work

    Hello

    I have Vista L500 with a dead keyboard. This machine has not been abandoned or anything it is spilled on it. I plugged USB keyboard external that works. The laptop keyboard does not work. I flashed the BIOS, update drivers, held shift for 10 sec (read on another forum), reset computer, check the updates of Windows Vista and ran 3 checks of Virus.
    Everything is perfect, just no keyboard?

    What should I check? What is a motherboard problem?

    Hello

    Can enter you the BIOS (F2 key) with internal keyboard?
    If it isn't the internal keyboard seems to be defective and must be replaced

    I don t think you can do more. I mean you've tried everything what is possible and if an external keyboard works the installation of the OS should be ok.

    The keyboard can be ordered and replaced from an authorized service provider. Do you know how to contact the guys?

  • Satellite A210 - 17l - keyboard does not respond

    Hello

    I have a problem that is driving me crazy.
    When I press F2 or F12 to switch on the keyboard behaves as it should.
    However if trying to load a Boot CD or Usb car via the options F12, the device is recognized
    but click on any other key, the cursor just sits there intermittently at me and the keyboard does not respond.
    What makes strange, is that an external keyboard is recognized but the mirrors one internal.
    I have the latest version of the bios update.

    F2 in the bios - ok keyboard.
    Start in win7 - keyboard ok.
    Insert bootable back disk via F12 option-charges but no keyboard reagent.
    I think a partial corrupt bios
    Someone has ideas about problem or even a solution.

    but click on any other key, the cursor just sits there intermittently at me and the keyboard does not respond.

    And what should happen on this stage?

    For me, this looks like a problem with your startup disk.
    I installed OS using different disks of Microsoft or USB recovery media and all you have to do is click on most of the time on the button NEXT.

    If the keyboard works in BIOS and Windows, I see no problem with the keyboard there.

    Today I tried it and it turns on but the keyboard does not work.

    >... it says driver error.
    Just or is driver error may be written which driver exactly?
    Start your laptop in SafeMode (F8 at startup) and check if the same keyboard problem occurs again.

    Be so kind and post comments.

  • Satellite 200-170-keyboard does not work and the keyboard stops working

After Internet received external usb driver work ok. someone at - it an idea to solve this problem.

    Thank you

    AJAN

    Sounds like keyboard problem.
    The operating system uses the pilot to clean keyboard and generally it s not necessary to reinstall the special keyboard driver.
    But one thing is really strange; the yellow exclamation mark in Device Manager

    Eventually it s only a problem of software in such a case, a system restore can be useful...

    Have you checked if the keyboard works in the BIOS?
    Do this!

    If the keyboard does not work in the BIOS, then you will need to replace the internal keyboard with the new.

  • Satellite Pro C660D - screen does not turn

    I just got my Satellite Pro C660D back from repair (for a faulty fan), but the screen does not light when I start the laptop.

    She lights up on the front (and I can rotate the block number power sp that the keyboard works).
    Any ideas?

    I agree, I mean the laptop should work just fine after it has been fixed by ASP so I think that something was not right here and the technician must check this!

  • Satellite Pro L20 keyboard problems not fixed by the update of the BIOS

    Hello

    When I type in MS Word or another application, certain characters are not displayed. This problem is known.
    I followed the recommendation of the TOSHIBA BIOS V1.30 for PSL25E update. Unfortunatey, it does not help.
    I would be gateful to any Advisor.

    Thank you

    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 M70-113 does not start up - it hangs at the logo screen

    Hello

    I have a toshiba satellite pro m70-113.

    Sometimes when my laptop turns off mode standby automatically, due to inactivity and then if I press a key on the keyboard to wake up nothing happens and I have no other choice but to it stop completely by pressing the button for 5 seconds.
    But when I restart it works well, that is to say, it starts very well.

    But today, when it is in a similar situation, I restarted the laptop, the screen move after the logo screen toshiba. I have the power on several times, but without success. It crashes just on screen toshiba logo.

    After a few restart I pressed ESC while restarting and the toshiba logo changed to the texts POST bios screen.
    And I found that the text will not go forward after having reached:
    Find disk 0:
    Maybe default feel HDD initialization...
    The captured image is here:
    http://img144.imageshack.us/img144/9986/image007sp2.jpg

    Note: this is a capture when, I don't know how the system has just begun works very well and can be seen that the HARD drive is detected normally this time. While the earlier version, it will not proceed after having reached "Found Disk 0:

    So, the problem is that at the time of the problem, the hard drive was not read / initialized or something like that.

    And I remember that when I tried to reboot my laptop and it did not work. It was running on battery and when I switched power supply that worked.

    So it is a problem that has been fixed in a bet to update BIOS, but for another laptop (see laufendspass post) his link on this forum is here:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=13143&MessageID=48143

    And my current bios version is 1.1 and an update is available for v1.30... (But I have not yet updated)

    Another problem I had met some time was same this post mentions to be corrected during the update of the bios.
    i.e. "corrected: a computer that is turned on to State power and running on battery power, may crash if the user is connected to the AC adapter while it is start.ยป

    So, for this, all mean that these problems can be solved by an update of the bios v1.30 which is available for my Satellite m70-113?

    Please answer.

    Hi Ashish,

    The fact that the initial POST process cannot access your hard disk suggests you that there is a possible problem with the drive, maybe he is not in place correctly when power is applied to it. The contents of the disc should be OK, then I suggest you take a good backup of your system (or at least your personal data) If you manage to get your notebook to boot successfully.

    I do not think that an update of the BIOS will affect any on that since the problem does not seem to have a certain 'trigger', and if the BIOS cannot access the hard disk then no matter what version of BIOS you are using.

    Kind regards

  • "SHIFT" on the Satellite Pro C660 key does not work

    G ' Day,.

    I have a little problem with my laptop Toshiba Satellite Pro C660.
    Unfortunately I had to remove the keyboard and thus dislodged the
    fragile plug to connect to the computer.

    The 'Shift' key refused to work since. All other keys work as usual.
    The only problem is the 'Shift' button does not.
    I tried to gently move the plug but made no difference so now have to
    Use a USB keyboard.

    Can you please help with suggestions for this problem?
    Thank you for your time.

    See you soon,.
    Sunrap.

    I really put t know what you think when you know that there is no connection for each unique key, but for the entire keyboard.

    To be honest I ve changed keyboard several times but never noticed this problem.
    Are the two SHIFT keys off function?
