Hi angeh,

What laptop Satellite you have exactly?

To be honest it's not easy to say that the reason is. This kind of problems with WLAN have many different reasons, but as a first step, I would try a driver WLAN on Toshiba page was updated:

  • Internal speakers Satellite C640 suddenly stopped working

    Hi friends,

    My satellite c640, internal speakers suddenly stopped working but works fine when the headphones or external sources are connected
    Is this a hardware problem?

    I m using win 7 64 bit and I tried to install the drivers but seems to be a hardware problem

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    I don't know if it is a hardware issue of m.
    You may need to check certain settings.

    In Control Panel-> sound-> the Read tab.
    You should see the speakers selected as the default device.
    You can also click these speakers to the right and you should see a few options:
    Speaker Setup
    test
    Disable
    and so on.

    Test the speaker first. In my case, a short tone is displayed. You can also mark the speaker and click the properties button. You will see a second window with tabs. Check the second tab called LEVEL. Here, you can change the sound level.

    What happen exactly when you try to reinstall the sound driver? You get errors?

  • Capacity wireless suddenly stopped working after an update of Windows Vista.

    Feature WiFi suddenly stopped working after a windows vista updated.  Wireless switch is engaged, but stays yellow that messeges troubleshooting all say computer does not detect wireless devices.  It's as if someone pulled the unit and the antenna of the portable computer.  I also downloaded the wireless drivers and Setup several times without success.  Wireless device appears in the Device Manager page.  The only thing that is showing and work is the cable which is how I can download the drivers and appear on this forum.  Is it possible that the wireless device is broken?  All applicable lights are lit on the networking modem, no signal is detected on the computer, I have concluded that the wireless on the laptop is just inop.  Either way, I have a Compaq Presario F700 laptop.  All the options out there?  Thank you

    original title: can't find the wireless device

    Hello again, Kathy,

    More specific instruction, I can give to check settings in the BIOS of your system is to search for a list of devices that installed your laptop. There are only two options for each device, activate them and deactivate them.
    Look for something listed as network radio or wireless card and make sure that it is set to enable.
    The option that you network adapter found can also control the wireless adapter, but it can control only the plug adapter (Ethernet) network.
    A simpler solution, if you have not already tried it it is the system restore in Windows as mentioned by Kiran in a previous answer:
    WARNING: Changing the BIOS / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can resolved e. Changes to settings are at your own risk.
  • Service Windows wireless suddenly stopped working because of problem with the KeyIso service

    Description of the problem: Windows Wireless Services suddenly stopped working on my computer. What I have discovered so far that the problem is that the WLAN AutoConfig service does not work because of the failure of the function "KeyIso". The error message for the mentions "Error 126" KeyIso (the specified module could not be found). Any help to fix this would be appreciated. TDW

    Hello

    What is the antivirus installed on the computer program?

    KeyIso Description:

    The service provides insulation for private keys key processes and operations of such associated encryption required by the common criteria. The service stores and uses long term keys in a secure process in line with the requirements of the common criteria. It should normally be disabled, as otherwise, these cryptographic operations may fail.

    Looks like there could be a corruption with the wireless connection that you have added. You can perform the steps.

    Method 1:

    Try to manually start the wireless service, i.e. the WLAN AutoConfig service. To do this, connect to the computer as an administrator.

    a. Click Start, type services.msc and press enter.
    b. Locate the Autoconfiguration WLAN service, double-click to open its Properties window.
    c as. under the general tab, change the startup type to Automatic and click on the Start button.
    d. click on apply, then ok.

    Method 2:

    To resolve this problem, try using the tool (SFC.exe) System File Checker. To do this, follow these steps:

    How to use the System File Checker tool to fix the system files missing or corrupted on Windows Vista or Windows 7

    Method 3:

    You can uninstall and reinstall the network card and check.

    a. click Start, type Device Manager in the Start search box and press enter.
    b. locate the network adapters and expand the same.
    c. Select the Wireless connection, right click and choose Uninstall.
    d. restart the computer, if prompted.

    Drivers should settle automatically after the computer restarts.

    Now you can install the latest network card drivers and see if that fixes the problem.

    It kept freezing, then nothing. So I kill disked the HARD drive and tried to re - install Windows (XP).
    During the installation, he threw a message that some internal components had been installed incorrectly and has to be reinstalled.
    I was told to remove the memory cards and reposition the.

    It does not work. I thought that maybe the HARD drive was damaged, so I set up a new and started to reinstall Windows.
    Once again, same message. One of my colleagues at work suggested that the motherboard was probably U/S.

    So I've been trawling .net to find a replacement. Laptop computer out of warranty! I am told that some other mothers numbered series will work with this laptop. I really want to get a motherboard to find sound never go to work! My unit has a number of SPS to: V000138330.
    I am one with an SPS of offered: V000138390.

    Any ideas? This one will work?
    And if this is the case, it will give me the feature I used to enjoy?
    Sorry for the long history of sobbing.

    All the advice accepted with gratitude.

    Hello Andy

    Sorry, but can you tell us more about your laptop? What model do you have exactly (L300-xxx)?
    You have the European model?
    At your warranty valid for laptop?
    Maybe I've misunderstood something, but why you want to swap motherboard if the warranty is probably still valid?

  • Re: Wireless suddenly stops working after traveling abroad

    Toshiba Satellite L402, WXP

    Before you travel my laptop wireless works perfectly, after traveling abroad, I tried to connect to my network wireless at home, but I can't see any wireless network.

    I have two computers at home, PC and laptop, the PC has no any problem connecting to the wireless and can see all available wireless network, while my laptop has his red X mark on its icon on the quick launch wireless and can not display any network without wire around, I have re installed the driver but still it won't work , I tried to connect my psp and portable to my wireless router just to check if the connection to the router is limited, but I was able to connect to it.

    Any idea on what I need to check or do? Thank you!

    Hi guel27,

    -have you checked if the wlan switch is in the correct position?
    -If the position is ok, check the hardware by using Device Manager. No red or yellow cross on the wlan adapter? Okay, you guys:
    -check if the network connection is not disabled in the overview of network connections
    -(droite-klick sur réseau/wlan-icon dans la systemtray et vérifiez votre connexion si elle est désactivée.)
    seing any Red Cross on your wlan conn? Okay, you guys:
    -Perhaps you have installed a wireless Internet favorite, at least you could:
    -delete all favorite connections and choose dhcp instead of a static ip address

    BTW: Be sure to use the driver for your nic corect!

  • Keyboard wireless suddenly stopped working - changed batteries still not helped

    Hello

    I have a craving for 20 all-in-one touch screen with a wireless keyboard that has been absolutely fantastic so far.  Suddenly, the wireless keyboard doesn't work while composing an email.  I replaced the batteries and check with a voltmeter to ensure 1.5V. There is an alkiline battery brand name.  I tried to re-boot the computer and pressing the blue connect button under keyboard.  The only keys that seem to work are the volume up/down and mute; the rest of the keyboard does not work.  Any idea?  I like the keyboard of the factory, so I hope this isn't a faulty keyboard.  After walking keyboards use a USB port.

    Thank you

  • Satellite NB10T-to-10F - webcam suddenly stopped working

    Hello
    I got the laptop TOSHIBA SATELLITE NB10T-A-10F
    The web cam has suddenly stopped working
    I tried
    Updated bios even without result
    Here is the picture of Device Manager

    In various cases, the webcam can be enabled and disabled in the BIOS
    This option would typically appear in the BIOS under: Advanced-> System Configuration
    Please check this box.

    Otherwise, you need to know also that the webcam driver installation isn't necessary if you use the system Win 8 or 8.1 win because such driver is already part of the system.

    If the BIOS does not have the power option webcam (Advanced-> System Configuration) I would recommend you to retrieve the computer laptop back to the factory to check settings if possible hardware malfunction would be responsible for this issue.

  • Satellite Pro L870 - Touch-pad suddenly stopped working

    Hi - the touchpad on my Satellite Pro L870 - 18G (Windows 8) has suddenly stopped working (after less than 2 months use of)-which makes the phone rather difficult to use. There is nothing wrong with the driver - according to the Device Manager, but I tried to reinstall when even (did not help).
    These things are not normally suddenly?

    Why device manager says that there is no problem when there is a very clear?

    Maybe the touchpad is disabled. Is there a any reaction when you use the FN + F5 key combination?

  • Satellite L50Dt - A - touchpad suddenly stopped working

    Hello
    I'm not a part of L50Dt-A Satellite. PSKM2A. It is running Windows 8.1.

    Last night the touchpad suddenly stopped not working, no cursor on the screen.
    The little mouse on the touchpad indicator has not been and is not yet lit.
    So I pressed the Fn + F5 key so many times, but that didn't work back.

    I went to the mouse properties in Control Panel, and under the hardware, it is listed.
    In Device Manager, there is nothing under the mouse either.
    I went to the site of Toshiba and downloaded the driver for the touchpad.

    However, on installation, it says that this is impossible because the computer already has one.
    I need to uninstall and reinstall.
    However, I don't find the touchpad synaptics original anywhere to uninstall driver.

    Everything is updated via windows update and I ran the troubleshooting tools and that you have restarted, and so far, nothing has worked.

    I plugged in an external mouse so I can use it.
    But I'd like my touchpad mouse works again.

    Any help you can give me would be much appreciated.

    Thank you

    > Yesterday the touch pad suddenly stopped working...
    I ve never been faced with this problem, but try first to make back the OS to an earlier time using system restore just to see what will happen.

    In this whole thing that it is confusing that touchpad isn't listed in the Manager under the mouse devices and other pointing devices.

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L300 with a built-in USB 2.0 camera and a windows operating system 7, the camera suddenly stopped working for about 2-3 weeks ago with unknown reason!

    I tried the system restore, uninstall and reinstall the camera driver, preformed a complete analysis by kaspersky internet antivirus 2012 (updated) and I also ran a complete system and drivers troubleshooting... and the problem persists...

    When I use windows live movie maker it gives me an error saying: can t record audio or video of the selected camera. Make sure that the device you are trying to use is properly installed and not currently in use by another program.

    The microphone works well on Skype, but the camera does not open!
    Please tell me how to solve this problem, what missing am me?

  • Satellite L850 - webcam suddenly stopped working

    The web cam on my Satellite L850 has suddenly stopped working.

    It does not appear in Device Manager;
    I downloaded the latest driver on the Toshiba site;
    I checked the BIOS and the web cam is turned on;
    Always when I open the web cam application I get the following message:

    "webcam initialization failed Please restart request and camera control.

    I scoured the advice forum and short of a return to the top and reboot disk HARD, I find no reasonable answer. I can't back up as I am away from home is out of the question. I need web conference call cam / call my family to the United Kingdom back.

    Tired of going round in circles and getting nowhere.

    Any suggestions?

    Post edited by: mrclean

    Even if you have not changed the settings in the BIOS, you must Access the BIOS to make sure that the webcam is turned on it!

    I also recommend the suite of this workaround:
    Uninstall the webcam software
    Uninstall the VAP
    Uninstall all software needed the webcam (Skype, etc...)
    Now, restart and install CCLeaner (cleaning of freeware software)
    Reboot once more.
    Run CCleaner and clean the system and the registry.
    Reset
    Now follow with installation of VAP
    Reset
    Install the webcam software
    Reset
    Test webcam.

    Good luck

  • Satellite A500 - 15N Wireless has stopped working

    I bought my A500-15N in last October and had no problems at all with wireless connectivity. Last night when I was surfing Internet it suddenly stopped working (literally between two pages on Wikipedia) and I can connect is no longer. When I try the troubleshooting option, I still see an error 'wireless capability is turned off. I not made any changes to my router or laptop, so I'm not sure what could be going wrong.

    Is the wireless adapter fuck and I need to get this replaced? I tried the combo FN + F8 but which does nothing either.

    Hey,.

    Is the WLAN card still listed in Device Manager correctly and have you tried another key FN if combination work?
    Usually the WLAN card can be disabled with the FN + F8 key combination you wrote

    In your case I would recommend updating the driver WLAN. You can download the latest driver WLAN here:

  • Satellite C650 - sound suddenly stopped working

    Hello.

    I bought this laptop the month last November.
    in any case, around a week or two ago, the noise suddenly would not work.

    He started making strange noises when I put in the headphones and speakers just made no noise at all never.
    I did a lot of weird things - like system restore, reinstall audio drivers but nothing worked until I updated the bios, then everything went well and the sound worked again.

    However, today, the sound suddenly stopped working again. I tried to re - install the current bios but InsydeFlash says: "the version of the ROM file is the same BIOS version" and just closes.

    I searched the internet for an older version of the bios, but when I try to install it, InsydeFlash said: 'the version of the ROM file is not newer than the version of the BIOS' and of course, I know that but then it closes too!

    I'm not really good at computers or anything, any help at all would be appreciated.

    Thank you.

    Hello

    I recommend checking some options first;
    -check if mute is not activated
    -check if all the volume controls are set to a higher value
    -check if the sound using headphones

    If this is not successful, you must reinstall the audio driver.
    First go to Device Manager and uninstall the audio driver. Restart the device
    Download the audio driver from the Toshiba page, then reinstall it. Reboot once again and test the sound.
