Trying to fix a keyboard is almost never a good idea. And the payment
someone else to do, it's worse.

Just buy a new. They are very expensive.

    Have you tried to unplug and plug the docking again?

  • Satellite A300D-126 the keyboard does not work

    I reinstalled the driver but it still does not. What could be the problem? Help please. Thank you

    Hello

    What s wrong exactly?
    You have reinstalled the drivers?
    What drivers do you mean?

    The keyboard driver is part of the Windows operating system and it cannot be reinstalled separately.

    If your keyboard doesn't work properly then either the software doesn't run as it should, or the material (keyboard) is defective.

    You could try reinstalling the operating system using the Toshiba HDD recovery to check whether the problem is related to the software.
    If the keyboard does not work after this procedure, then a hardware problem might be possible.

  • Half of the keyboard does not work

    Dell Inspiron 2200 laptop. Windows XP

    On my laptop, the keyboard started to do funny things. First of all it would be bouble type a few letters. Then, almost half of these on the side right of the keyboard has stopped working. (Does not: 9.0,-, o, p, [, l,., /]) I installed two new keyboards (from two different vendors, however made by the same manufacturer in China), no change. The technician of Microsoft in India couldn't help either. Any suggestions?       Mike

    Hi Mike,.

    1. have you used a wired or wireless keyboard to check the question?

    2 are you able to use other usb devices?

    If you used a wired keyboard, then try to use a wireless keyboard and check if the problem occurs.

    You can also try to check the keyboard on the screen and if the problem persists.

    Hello

    I m not very familiar with this laptop, but I think you have to remove a cover of detroit that is placed close to the display cover. There you should find the two screws that hold the keyboard.
    But if you're not 100% sure how to remove the keyboard, then you should ask the ASP for the detailed instructions.

  • My Acer Aspire V - 123 Windows 8 keeps freezing and some keys on the keyboard are not working

    I'm currently using a netbook ACER ASPIRE V - 123 with Windows 8 as its operating system and it is not yet updated to 8.1.

    At first when my computer laptop while boots 'seems' to agree, and whenever I try to open a file without any content it took me about 30-45 seconds, opening a program would take me almost 45 seconds to a minute, and I think that something is not right with my laptop and when I try to open a website via my web browser and my laptop would just FREEZE and I can't do anything about it , but I hate to do HARD reset. And to add to this unfortunate scenario is that some of the keys on my keyboard are not working the letters like R, T, I, O and backspace and many others (which I don't remember exactly one by one).

    I try to read some forums on different sites and some posts to the community of MS and did several tests like starting in SAFE MODE w / NETWORKING and downloaded the software like MALWAREBYTES to find potential infections, but nothing found. I also did the start-up in MINIMAL MODE, but again, the situation was the same, but when I'm the boot without failure the filling and freezing are only decrease and I don't want always starts in mode safe.

    From now my laptop is booting in a start-up in MINIMAL MODE and I don't know what to do next, what to try next. I hope someone could lead me to the solution to this problem, I would be eternally GRATEFUL.

    Please do help me in a step by step process and if possible please guide me with pictures or screenshots because I prefer to learn things when I Visual effects on what to do.

    Thanks for patiently reading this post.

    Hi Ben,

    Sorry for the late reply, the laptop has been fixed, it seems to be a hardware problem. We disconnected the connection of the keyboard to the laptop right now I use an external keyboard to type. Cannot afford now to buy and replace my laptop keyboard, the graphics card Driver has been updated also and I've reformatted the OS

    The gel did not appear more in the normal boot and if all goes well for work this way for good.

    Thanks for the information you have shared to me, he has also been a great help.

    until next time Ben!

    Best regards

  • Portege R100: the keyboard does not work

    I am facing a problem. My laptop keyboard does not work. How can I purchase a new Panel of key for this model, or how I can fix the problem.

    Hello

    I put t know what is wrong exactly with your keyboard, but I guess the keyboard needs to be replaced.
    To my knowledge the keyboard was fixed by 2 screws under the thin cover above the keyboard.
    You must remove the thin cover and then the 2 screws.
    Then, you will be able to set the keyboard.

    But be careful; the keyboard must be connected with the flat cable to the motherboard.

    Compatible keyboard, you can order from the Toshiba service partner in your country.

    Last day I was cleaning my keyboard (I do not used any water or liquid), and when I handed the keys, I found that my 'enter' key does not work.
