Strange keyboard on my Satellite M30 problem

Hello

I have a problem with the keyboard on my m30. He still thinks that the shift keys are pressed. The only way around this was to disable the two keys in the registry - using an external keyboard.

External keyboard works perfectly.

Thinking it was a problem with my keyboard, I replaced the keyboard m30 twice, but still have the same problem, even after a thorough cleaning of my OS.

Do you think it could be a motherboard problem? It occurred after a year.

Thank you

Hi trev

In my opinion just detailed testing can clarify the situation. In my opinion, there is a hardware problem. I think that this keyboard controller is faulty. Maybe I'm wrong, but as far as I know internal and external keyboard don t use the same controller.

Try to contact the Service partner and ask them what may be the problem. They know what the problem is here.

  • Strange keyboard on my Satellite 2450 problem

    My Satellite 2450 system unit model ps245l-03H7YP made in the Philippines has problem. First 3 characters in my keyboards can operate (4.6 and space). After 1 week my Satellite cannot work, whenever I turn on the computer I have a Word? Check the system. Then press the [F1] key.

    This happens before the BIOS menu and I can't use my keyboard. But when I try with external keyboard I can get into the BIOS with push F1 Menu and I can't setting BIOS with all "N" key to the Toshiba keyboard & keyboard. With the external keyboard, I can enter my Windows XP.

    Hello

    For me, it's like something wrong with the internal keyboard or only with the keyboard controller.
    Maybe it's only one loses the keyboard cable but it's only a sugestion.
    Unfortunately, I don't think that you will be able to solve this problem without any help.
    I think you should ask the Toshiba service partner in your country for assistance and advice.

  • Strange keyboard on my Satellite L500 problem

    I have a Toshiba Satellite L500-11V and in recent months the keyboard was make it worse (some keys work only when they want too) and now it has stopped working completely. I bought another keyboard hoping it would be a simple difficulty however, this has not solved the problem.

    I did some research and updated the bios to v2.1, but it still does not work. The weird thing that I found which is good to use an external via USB keyboard when I press Caps and number on the external keyboard the two lights on the laptop keyboard lights?

    I am running out of ideas, and it's really bugging me now. Any ideas how to sort this?

    If the new keyboard didn t sole that there must be a serious hardware problem, keyboard controller, maybe.
    I think you need professional help with this then I recommend you contact the nearest Toshiba service provider and ask for help. They can check with diagnostic tools and tell you with certainty what the problem is here.

  • Strange keyboard on my Satellite L40 problem

    I have laptop Satellite L40 - 17u, and I had it again for about 2 months. My keyboard now seems to do its own thing. I'm going to the settings to correct this. It is ok for a while then goes haywire once again, so leave some letters on the key on board either entered numbers, some type at all, and not to tap the buttons I'm pressing.

    I did a reforming and it always goes the same way.
    Any ideas please?
    Thank you

    You have recently installed a keyboard related software like AllChars? Exactly what settings change to correct the missbehaviour on your keyboard? If activate you NumLock?

  • Satellite M30: Problems install Power Saver - fatal error has occurred

    7.0.0.3 for something Satellite M30.

    After setting up, I get a "fatal error occurred. The program took end code ox2.

    Any ideas on whats wrong?

    Hello

    I put t know exactly what's wrong, but I remember these problems might appear if the drivers, tools, and utilities are installed in the correct order.
    The installation instructions document is no doubt placed on the page of the Toshiba driver.
    I recommend that you check these documents

    But why you don t use the Toshiba Recovery CD. This CD allows you to install the operating system with all the necessary tools and drivers much faster and easier.

  • Vsync satellite M30 problem

    I have the centrino 1.6 with 64 MB fx go5200 15.4 "widescreen m30. You can use the new nvidia drivers like 66,10 but only those modified that you can easily find on the net.

    The main problem is that you cannot change the refresh rate that he is stuck on 60 Hz. For this reason, rates of frame for all games are 60 Hz and very slow, even if you use the refresh rate overrides.
    There must be an option to disable similar to menu opengl vsync. I tried the 3rd party applications such as NVRefreshTool 2. 1A, but it didn't fix the problem.

    Anyone has a solution on this. By the way there is a solution on the net about this black border problem that some have. You must search for it.

    As far as I know that Toshiba display driver are supported as the those of Nvidia are not for laptops!

    Do you have this problem with a Toshiba driver held, too?

    What operating system and Service Pack you are using? For XP SP2 might occure problems with different drivers, so you need to update!

  • Modem satellite M30 problem

    Does not my modem (Lucent/Agere?) - (downloaded from the Toshiba site) drivers are installed without problem (no warning in Device Manager), but the modem can not open the (virtual) serial port.
    I tried all the possible drivers and installation plans.
    I installed successfully Nokia mobile (via IR) as a modem and it works without problems. But the internal modem is not able to open the serial port when running test.

    Furthermore, I can't change the settings of resources.

    How to solve the problem, do you have any suggestions?

    Can someone tell me which driver is appropriate (because I still think I need to find the right driver).

    Finally, I do not have the original CD from Toshiba to get the driver... If anyone has the same model and you can send the driver by e-mail, I will be very grateful! (E-mail: [email protected]).

    All the best, David

    Hi gziro,.

    is it possible to give me some more information? In particular the exact Productname M30 - XXX and your current operating system? Maybe I could help you with this information.

  • Satellite M30 - problem with the graphics driver and Quicktime movies

    I just installed a 40 GB to 80 GB hard drive and installed all the drivers in the correct order, as indicated by toshiba. Everything works well except the used for Quicktime .mov files. All I get is audio but no image - other than a colorful blur screen!

    I think I've isolated the problem to the graphics driver. Whenever I turned off / uninstall the driver dedicated for the graphics card FX 5200 GP (version 4.6.44) Quicktime files work fine. It is only when I installed the dedicated driver problems occur!

    Can someone tell me why this might be?

    Hello

    Do you use the graphics driver from the Toshiba driver page?

    Try to use the QuickTime Alternative 1.77. In this version the codex QuickTime has been updated.
    This version uses these features:

    -Media Player Classic [version 6.4.9.0 + SVN build 2006-12-24]

    Hello

    The key cannot be disabled.
    I guess that it s a malfunction simple keyboard.

    Have you already tried to connect an external keyboard?

  • Satellite M30: Unknow Hard Error - could this be a problem of hard drive?

    I got my Satellite M30 for 2 years now and it never gave me any problems, until a few weeks ago. The problem started shortly after I put Windows to SP2, when I played a game it would stick for a minute or two, and then continue on as usual, the problem slowly got worse and started blue screening with "Unknown hard error" and sometimes strange balloon in the lower right corner saying unknown hardware error and then freeze it. It also took a long time to start and generally do nothing.

    Assumed it was a problem when I've upgraded to SP2, so I decided to reinstall Windows and start over again, update the BIOS while I was home.

    Once this is done it seemed fine for an hour or two, but then tried to install a game and of course, the good old blue screen appears and the whole problem starts again.

    I took it to a repair shop and explain the problem and I had re-installed Windows nothing helped, and I suspected that it may be a hardware failure, I left it with them, and 2 days later I get a call saying its all fixed and ready to be picked up, I asked what was wrong with it and they said that they re-installed Windows and sound now works fine (i.e. what I their) I said, I had made and n t worked!). I picked up (and got charged £40 to have done what I had already done). I got it home and everything seemed ok... for a few hours, then blue screens seemed to tell me any physical dumping of beginning and the usual stuff.

    I think it might be a drive problem hard, like when I tried to install a game on it at night last light CD and HARD flash drive, one for about 15 seconds, then the other for a short time, data copied from one to the other, but then the HARD drive light stayed on, and I could hear the HARD disk as if it were sticky , after about a minute of this blue and close short-listed and took some time to turn back. If I leave a couple of hours and it starts fine until the next time.

    So, after my long description on my problem, I have 2 questions,

    1. could I be right in thinking that these problems are associated with hard drive?
    2. If I'm right, is easy to replace on the M30 HARD drive and where I would buy a new?

    Thanks for your time and help,

    Kenny.

    Hello

    The blue screen appears only if you play games?

    But I agree with you. In my opinion, there would really be a hardware malfunction.
    The question is - it s a HARD drive or something different?
    Hmmm. I think that the problem is not related to the disc HARD but maybe overheating?
    According to the publication, sometimes when you play games. The game is a high performance application. All devices running with maximum performance and produce heat.

    I m not 100% sure, but maybe the high temperature has a bad influence on the system and therefore the BSOD happens.
    You suggested that the laptop run properly for about 2 years. Maybe fans can cool properly because of the dust and debris. Two years is a long time if you have not cleaned the cooling modules and fans.

  • Replacing keyboard on Satellite M30

    Hello!

    I dropped accidentally coffee on my Satellite M30. my keyboard no longer works correctly. I tried to clean it with compressed air, who saved a few touches, but there are still some keys that do not work. I discovered that I can buy a replacement on www.sparepartswarehouse.com part, but I live in the Netherlands, and transportation costs are very expensive.
    My question is: can I buy a spare directly from Toshiba?

    Hello

    I'm not sure about this. As far as I know, you can buy only the things that you can find on the Toshiba site. The pieces of equipment can be ordered by service partners. Try to make contact with the partner in your country and ask them what may be the best solution for your problem.

    Maybe you can also buy some already used keyboard.
    Check http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com under Support & downloads. You can find the links service partners.

  • Satellite L750D - issue strange keyboard/touchpad

    Hi guys, I'm new here and I hope you can help me.

    I have a Satellite L750D here who has a strange keyboard/touchpad issue.

    Recently, my screen was replaced and I toke the possibility of replacing the DD by a SDS.

    I used the OS restore cd that I created from the partition recovery and completely reinstalled Windows 7 64 - Bit ones.

    Everything seemed to work well after the last restart.

    Then my after reboot, the keyboard was not working and or the touchpad.
    I tried to restart / stop and start again, no change.

    I plugged a USB keyboard and mouse, both work perfectly.

    I reinstalled the drivers of touchpad on Toshiba site, still no change.

    Then, I closed the lid and leave Notepad go into sleepmode/setting standby extended and found that when I opened the lid/screen, the keyboard was working again, but not the touchpad.

    Fn + F9 made no difference.

    I then pressed the button above the touchpad, but the touchpad remained dead. But after pressing this button, the keyboard went dead too!
    The key for the touchpad power made no difference, the keyboard or the touchpad remained dead.

    Given zero made no difference either.

    Throw the drivers in safe mode led the pilots to be reinstalled, but both keyboard and the touchpad remained dead.

    The only thing to bring back the keyboard is the cover and goes sleepmode/setting to Hibernate and wake up to the laptop.

    But press the button above the keyboard and the touchpad is dead again.

    Started from a Windows 7-LIVE CD, both keyboard and the touchpad remained dead.
    Started from a live CD of Ubuntu Linux, keyboard works, no mather, you press the button for the touchpad, but the touchpad
    died.

    Is there anything else I can try, or what I have to assume there's something defect requiring hardware repair/replacement?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Kind regards
    Jan

    I plugged a USB keyboard and mouse, both work perfectly.

    It's really strange... from my point of view of the rare, the mouse and external keyboard works properly, then the controller should be OK, and this means that the anomaly must be linked to the defective keyboard / touchpad.

    But on the other hand, you said that the keyboard works correctly starting Linux Live CD.
    For me, it makes no sense and I'm confused...

    Anyway, given that the laptop has been disassembled to replace the screen and other parties, I think that something went wrong during this process and probably a part has been affected...

    In my opinion, it is advisable to replace the keyboard and to check if it will fix the problem.
