The weird keyboard on Satellite Pro L20

I bought a new Satellite L20 here at the Kuwait, and I have the problem with the keys on the keyboard. Usually, it is SHIFT + 2 for ' @' character and it is how he has been informed on my keyboard, but the entry gives me the quotation marks ("") and vice versa when I try to type "." Similarly, it is with the key #, it gives me £ and the backslash key gives me the #. I can't find the backslash character. Can someone help me on this as to what should be done, there is a setting problem or something wrong with the computer itself?

HI Satya,

It seems that if you have your keyboard set a UK specifications. You can change in the Panel of control-> keyboard configurations.

Kind regards

  • Satellite Pro L20 - need keyboard driver

    Hello world

    Just need help to find a keyboard driver Toshiba Satellite Pro L20, I re-installed windows as my hard drive crashed and as was a second hand laptop he didn t come with recovery disks.
    I downloaded every other player wireless, screen, sound, touch pad batch but I really struggle to find a m keyboard driver.

    My laptop at the moment alone will keyboard type with the weird key, others do not work at all I use a plug to the keyboard for the time being, not very mobile.
    Any help would be appreciated most.

    Kind regards
    Dave

    Thank you to everyone who takes the time to read my problem.

    Akuma is right. You should not install driver for keyboard functionality. Used keyboard driver Microsoft standard included in the operating system Windows XP Home/Vista edition.
    So if some buttons do not work, there may be a problem with the keyboard itself and you need to replace.

  • Satellite Pro L20 - How can I change the optical drive?

    I want to change the optical drive in a satellite pro L20 but I'm having trouble finding instructions on how to remove it. Can anyone help?

    The CURIOUS reader is fixed with a screw at the bottom of the unit. Then, turn the computer over and remove one screw an optical disk drive.
    The second screw is hidden under the keyboard. That's why this screw must be removed also. And then disconnect you should be able to pull-out of the optical drive.

    But note; If you have no experience of these things, ask a technician for laptop computer to help him.

  • Satellite Pro L20 - broken hinge baseplate - where to find the parts?

    Hello

    First post here, so please excuse the lack of local etiquette.

    My son has a Toshiba Satellite Pro L20 with a broken hinge base plate. I'm calling it a base plate that I can not find the name of the part anywhere on the web so far.

    Its obviously the metal plate on the basis that the hinge attaches to.
    You can see it if you remove the battery.

    Nobody knows what is this part and where I could possibly buy one?

    Kind regards

  • What is the fastest processor, I could put in Satellite Pro L20

    It is a desperate help request!

    Football Manager 2010 will come out soon and my laptop should be at the height.
    I know that I need to upgrade because Football Manager 2009 almost killed it!

    At the moment I have Intel Celeron M 1.4ghz and 704 MB ram chip.

    What is the song the fastest I could put in that? I did some research and found that I have only 2 GB of ram

    The laptop is in perfect working order, so I don't want to buy a new one, just for fun he and its served me well over the last 4 years - I dropped it enough times! Just need to speed up a bit!

    Hmm... You want really old enough Satellite Pro L20? I mean new laptops are more so expensive and I doubt that you will get a solid performance with the new CPU gain.

    Anyway, in your notebook is only the preinstalled CPU pre-tested and nobody is able to say what other s CPU will run. But you should look on the specifications for other laptops Satellite Pro L20. If an another L20 is equipped with a faster processor, it should also work in yours. You can try it, but in the worst case, it will not work.

    Good luck!

  • Satellite Pro L20: 37, 5 GB on the disk instead of 40 GB?

    I bought a satellite pro l20, which is supposed to have a 40 GB hard drive, but there only a hard drive Go 37.5. is there any reason its slightly smaller than its supposed to be?

    Hi Matt,

    The capacity of your hard drive is usually quoted as 40 GB because the actual capacity is measured in bytes. For GB 37.5, this would be equivalent to 37.5 X 1024 X 1024, which gives a figure of 39,321,600 (usually quoted as 40 GB).

    I use a 80 GB hard drive in my SA30 and gives a total output of 76,29 GB.

    It's just the way the hard drive industry cites the ability of their readers. :-)

    Kind regards

    The Toshiba recovery disc can t be downloaded. If you want a new drive, you must contact an authorized service provider. Maybe they can order a new one for you.

    Alternative you take Microsoft Windows disk and install the operating system for this disk. After that, you can download all the drivers and tools on the Toshiba site. It takes a little longer and it s not so uncomfortable.

  • Satellite Pro L20: battery not charge when the power adapter is connected

    Hello

    all advice appreciated.

    I had a Satellite Pro L20 for about 18 months. Recently, battery does not charge when the power adapter is connected. The battery light starts yellow (which means more liberated, I think?), then will both green, the machine sat for awhile. However the ACPI often said that AC is "offline."

    There are two recent occurrences that coincide with this problem, I try to eliminate:

    1. my friends rat chewed by the feeder for pets! Power is Mobile OK insofar as he fled sector - the rat seems to have simply chewed by the outer cover (I see some threads, but I think that is just a shield, although I'm not an electrician).

    2. I put the laptop in hibernation for the first time. That seemed to mess up the system a bit, which was what initially drew my attention to the problem. This question is a bit complicated because I'm under Linux (Xubuntu).

    I updated the drivers etc from windows when I bought the laptop. Never had any problems until now and have been running linux for centuries. Also, I have mainly the laptop the power supply turned off, but do not remove the battery (is that really a problem these days?)

    I obviously need to replace the adapter, but is - it is likely (and how I can check) that the battery was borked until?

    see you soon
    Chris

    First, please check if the other are lit.
    If the AC led and power led are on the adapter sector is ok and it provides the power to the laptop.

    > The battery light starts yellow (which means more liberated, I think?), then will both green, the machine sat for awhile
    If the battery LED is yellow, this means that the battery is not fully charged and if the Green led changes then recharging is caught and the battery has been recharged.

    So I really don t see any problems with the charge process.

    Maybe the battery is old and so you cannot use it for an extended in such a case only the replacement of the battery could help.
