Satellite U840W-107 - keyboard problems

I want to know if anyone has this laptop and he lived up to present too much flex and cracks on the keys?
I would like to know if replacement keyboards can come from anywhere?

I don't have this model of laptop, but I think you can contact Toshiba service nearest and ask for help. If there is a problem with the keyboard, you should get a new one.

The warranty is still valid?

  • 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

  • Satellite T110-107: touchpad problem - pointer move sometimes

    Good afternoon everyone,

    Currently I have a series of Satellite T110-107 and have problems with the touchpad.

    I start the computer and the touchpad works very well for a few seconds, after that, the touch pad stops working to full capacity.
    If I wander my fingers on the touchpad and the pointer does not move, sometimes it will move up and down, but not as it should.

    It is a common problem, or is it a hardware problem... or is it the fact that I'm just not accustomed to having the correct settings on windows7?

    All help reveal be great, because it's very frustrating!

    Kind regards!

    Hello

    I found a few tips and tricks that you should try.

    First, you must change the sensitive touchpad settings to lower the level.
    Go to control panel-> mouse and all the settings for the touchpad to the value has a less sensitive level.

    You should also right click Synaptics Pointing Device (in the taskbar) and get in the middle of the page Double click speed on.
    Move the slider to half way down the beach. This should help you too.

    Last but not leas, you will need to disable zoom pinch.
    Go to the icon in the lower right corner Synaptics pointing device, click on 'The pointing device properties', click on the "Device settings" tab, then the settings button. Uncheck "Enable Pinch Zoom" under "Pinch Zoom".

    Greetings

  • Re: Satellite P200 (PSPB6E) - keyboard problem

    Hello

    I have a keyboard with Satellite P200, series PSPB6E problem.

    Keyboard seems to generate Press Page Down constantly, although nothing has been paid to this subject.
    It is even difficult to turn on laptop, because it produced consecutive beeps and prevents the computer from starting.

    Sometimes some keyboard characters do not work, and in the second time it works. Sometimes same PgDown works as expected.
    Œuvres for additional keyboard, but it also receives PgDown keyboard of the laptop.

    Now, I can't insert any sentence in this post, because PgDown will move the cursor down.
    Laptop is under warranty. Should I enable it?

    I note that no. LIQUID is poured on the keyboard.

    On the keyboard of the computer laptop not work keys A, B, N, LEFT SHIFT, INPUT, same brief moments where PgDown keys not dumping. Sometimes even these key works!

    Best regards
    Vladimir Stefanovic

    Great news, buddy! :)

    I also have good experience with my ASP. They fixed the laptop as soon as possible and the repair took only a few days. It's also free.

    So still I m happy with the service!

  • On Satellite A505-S6973 keyboard problems

    Goodday once again everyone,

    Can someone tell me if the built-in on my Satellite A505-S6973 keyboard has a backlight.
    I watch a lot of these new laptops and similar to mine, under the keyboard it is white and I don't know if that's how it's supposed to light. If so, can someone tell me.

    On the Toshiba U.S. support page I checked the specification for laptop computer and, of course, your laptop doesn t have this backlit keyboard.
    Just FYI: all illuminated keyboard have FN + Z option to turn on/off illumination.
    With other words symbol small keyboard will be on the Z key.

    This option, when the backlit keyboard is in the book is also available in Toshiba HWSetup tool.

  • On the Satellite U50T-A keyboard problem

    I have a U50T.-a Satellite.
    Control device (keyboard) shows the following error message:
    Windows cannot start this hardware device because its information of configuration (in the registry) is incomplete or damaged. (Code 19)

    I tried to solve this problem, but I don't know what to do.

    Message was edited: assignment has been translated

    Are you abele to use the USB mouse or the touchpad?

    If Yes, then you should be able get the system back to point in time at the beginning.

    Restart the computer, go to the area of backup and system restore, then select the save point that has been created in the past.

    This restores the system and fix the registry.

    I think the keyboard should work after this procedure.

  • Satellite L855 - 12N - keyboard problem after upgrade to Windows 10

    Greetings friends,
    the problem goes like this: I have a TOSHIBA satellite, L855-12N, Series notebook.

    After updrading to win 10, some of my keys (a, n, enter) did not work initially.
    If I wait for awhile, they start work later.
    I find that I continue to press a button, (for example the button "a") for a long time, I see that he started to answer, then stop again and then answer - stop, until finally it works OK.
    I tried to update the drivers, uninstall and then reinstall, but it doesn't seem to work.
    Anyone know what's going on, or have any suggestions?
    Thank you.

    You are 100% it's a matter of Windows 10?
    Looks more like a hardware problem, keyboard should replace.

    Go into the BIOS and test the keyboard in there.
    If it goes into the BIOS and then replace the keyboard.

    If it's a software problem, try uninstalling the driver for the touchpad Control Panel, then reinstall it via Windows Update.

  • Re: Satellite A300D - strange keyboard problem

    Hello!

    I have a problem with my Satellite A300D: when I press on 'y' or '5', I get a "y5" and when I press "n" or "b", I get a "nb".
    If I hold down y or 5, it seems y5yyy... and with n and b I get nbnnn...

    What you think could be the problem? Keyboard? Or some other hardware controller?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    It is difficult to say why this happens, but in your case I would like to connect an external keyboard and check this. You may notice the same behavior?

    If not, I think the case is clear: your keyboard internal doesn t work properly and you need a new. Therefore, you can contact a service provider authorized in your country.

    By the way: have you checked the keyboard input language?

  • 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

    Hi Olbur

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

  • On Satellite C660-1J2 keyboard problems

    I have 2 laptops from Toshiba, type Satellite C660-1J2 used by 2 different people and we both have the same problem.
    The problem is with typing, many times it jumps a letter and sometimes a letter not to show, and then when you hit it again you get 2 letters and sometimes just get 2 letters to hit once.

    We tested it and it's a real big problem for us, because we use it for school...

    Help us please!

    Update the BIOS this will certainly solve!
    There are a lot of discussions on this issue and the update of the BIOS helped to address this problem.

  • On the Satellite L650-19W keyboard problems

    Hello

    A very strange and annoying problem developed on my laptop about four days ago. First of all, here's my laptop specs:

    Satellite L650 - 19W
    8 GB RAM (DDR3)
    Windows 7 64 bit
    Intel Core i5 CPU

    The problem is that some of the keys also trigger others.
    For example, whenever I have reached space I get a 'p' first, followed by a space, exactly the same thing happens when I press 'p '.

    Similar results occur with the 'h' and ' 6 ', ' 3' and the '+', the 2 and the ' / ', the 'f' and 4', as well as a few others. The passage of the right hand does not work with all keys and BACKSPACE can not be held down, IE only deletes one character at a time.

    I tried to restore to a point in front of what is going on started, as well as the stop, remove the battery and holding down the button start for 60 s, the two nothing helps. I have read similar problems, some people have recommended BIOS update.

    I downloaded an update of the BIOS for this computer from Toshiba Web site, but I'm wary to run due to a lot of people say you can ruin your ifp computer you don't know what you are doing, is it true?

    Any help would be appreciated, because she makes me crazy! It took half an hour to type this message!

    Hello

    I think that there is no other solution than to replace the internal keyboard.
    I guess its problem of keyboard internal a simple malfunction what can happen to the keyboards of the domestic.

    Have you tried external USB keyboard? Try and test how the unit would be.
    I guess it will work properly and the question wouldn t occur in external USB keyboard.

    We all have the same problem with keyboard.
    When we type something, some keys are lost down by the keyboard (such as a buffer overflow)

    An external USB keyboard works very well.

    Some of our machine went to TOSHIBA support and came back with the same problem!

    This problem is known outside France?

  • Satellite L555-11u keyboard problem

    Hello

    I wonder if a Toshiba representative could help me. I have recently (3 days ago!) bought a Toshiba laptop (Satellite L555-11u) and I noticed a problem
    with the keyboard. I can't use the 'L' key at all, and I hope that my hardware warranty for repair of this problem.
    I checked that all the drivers are installed and up to date and that there has been no physical damage to the keyboard or laptop.
    How I can get this problem solved in Ireland?

    Thank you

    RF

    Of course, the warranty will cover keyboard replacement, if necessary.
    In my opinion, you must contact your dealer as soon as possible. Usually, you have two weeks (depending on the country of purchase) duration shipping will return your product. So, try to contact your local dealer and try to get the replacement. I'm sure you can get the new laptop.

    If this does not work please contact authorized Toshiba service and explain the situation.
    To find the address and phone number visit the Toshiba support under http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com page > support & downloads > find an ASP.

    Good luck.
