MSI GE600 touch keys problem

I recently bought an MSI 600 laptop and have had some problems with the touch keys. Mainly, they seem to like to stop working after switching the laptop off and on, or hibernating it. Not after sleep, though.
And by not working I don't mean only pressing them having no effect in Windows, but there being no reaction during boot too. Normally, they light-up for a moment if you press them even as early as during the "press del to enter bios" phase, but they don't even work then, nothing lights up. I thought it was some connection issue, a loose cable, e.t.c., but right before that they work perfectly, and I doubt just hibernating would cause a cable to move enough to disconnect them.
The laptop has Windows 7 Ultimate x64 installed on it, but it seems to be more of a bios/firmware issue.
As for BIOS updates, I flashed the laptop with the 10a bios revision, newest one available, but, due to the site not having any info about that, removed the battery only for some 10 seconds. Later, trying to solve this issue, I reflashed the EC, same version as initially (18) and reset it by removing the battery for half an hour. Finally, I reflashed the bios to 10a again and this time restarted the EC by removing he battery for half an hour again.
I've been unable to fix this issue by myself so far.
Right now, for example, I left the laptop in sleep mode for the night, it switched to hibernation at some point. When I turned it back on, the touch keys weren't working. I turned it off, then back on, as they were still not working, I turned it off again during the configuration screen, then turned it back on and this time they started working.
It's not a huge issue, but it's certainly annoying to have to restart my brand new laptop sometimes a few times just to get the buttons to work.
Ah, right before the last bios reflash I was having problems with graphics switching - it would switch once, either to the ATI or INTEL card, and then refuse to switch again before restart. Reflashing the bios solved that problem.

  • E72 - One-Touch Keys Problem

    Hi all,
    could someone with an E72 try to assign to one of the one-touch keys (e.g. the calendar key) an application which is not one of the default ones.
    When I try to assign one of my own applications, I don't see them (only the default applications are shown).
    This was working perfectly on my other E-Series phones (E63, E55).
    Is this a general problem or is it just a problem with my phone?
    Thanks in advance

    Thanks for trying to help me.
    That was a strange problem. I had to change the phone language to another one and then back to the original one. After that I could choose my own applications again for the One-Touch keys.
    Never had this problem on my other E-Series phones.
    Anyway, problem solved.

  • Mute touch key problem

    Mute touch key to much sensetive. During talk it is pressed lightly and the mute option is turned on
    And the other side can not hear me
    Is it possible to disable the function or to make the key less sensitive
    I'm with iPhone 4 iOS 6

    It's a touch screen it's meant to be sensitive. You have a problem when the display doesn't shut off when you hold the iPhone to your ear.

    No...What you ask is not possible.

  • MSI GE600 HD5730 Graphic Problems

    Display driver amdkmdap stopped responding and has successfully recovered.
    http://img4.imageshack.us/f/problempl.png/ <- my event viewer logs
    My GE600, Around 5 months old, has been giving me this problem for that period of time. The screen will blackout for around 10 seconds and flash for a few seconds before returning to what i was doing. But now, since i started on a new game that requires alot of power (GTA IV) when this happens, i will get returned to my desktop, and my game will crash. I confirmed that that is the problem - the most recent crash was due to that error.
    The voltage when im playing the game is around 64-7x degree Celsius
    My GPU Usage has reached a maximum of 100% but im not sure when it was .
    Heres a list of things that i had tried:
    Reinstalled Drivers
    Increased Fan Speed
    Scanned for virus
    Installed all latest win7 updates
    All Drivers are up to date
    Please assist me. Thanks

  • Problems with touch keys

    Hi
    I have a problem with my BB torch 9810... since last 2 weeks, my touch keys don't work.
    For example, when I want to delete a contact, dialog box appears asking me to confirm the deletion. I choose "yes" or "no", but with my finger, the touch key does not work....!!!!! I must use the trackpoint to select the "yes" or "no".
    I need to reboot the blackberry and the touch key are working again, for for a short moment because the problems come back again.
    I don't know what happened, may be I have installed an application which cause this damage....
    Thank for help

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    I recommend that you attempt to boot into Safe Mode:
    KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in Safe Mode
    It may take you multiple attempts to get the ESC key sequence (press/release/hold) correct, so be patient. When successfully into Safe Mode, see what happens.
    If the behavior ceases, then think carefully...what happened just before this behavior started? A new app? An update? A Theme? Something else? Think carefully as the smallest change could be causal...and attempt to undo whatever that was.
    If the behavior continues, you may need to try more drastic measures (e.g., WIPE, reload, etc.).
    Good luck and let us know!

  • Touch keys not working

    I used the hp 6910p for about 6 months, usual activities, but many today do not see the touch keys work anymore, when click, no bright lights, a light button but has no effect. The brothers have any experience with treatment to help me

    yep...im stuck with the XP MCE. I havent upgraded to Vista or Win7 because as far as i know the touch keys wont work with this 2 OS.
    Im still using fabric settings on my qosmio. Ive formated the pc but the problem with the touch keys is still there. Like today i booted the pc and touch keys were working fine. Yesterday i booted the pc..worked for about 1h on it and the touch keys werent working.
    Sometimes what happens too is the fact that the touch keys dont work after the boot...but after 10min or so they start working.
    I cant find the drivers for this problem..are any available for this problem?

    MSI GT780R Keyboard keys defective disorder
    1 year ago, I bought 1 MSI GT780R laptop (with Windows 7), moved to Vietnam to use.
    The keyboard of the MSI GT780R French language, is not suitable for me,
    July 2013, I was ordered U.S. language keyboard on taobao.com. To replace the keyboard of the French language GT780R
     product link --- >> item.taobao.com/item.htm?spm=a230r.1.0.0.xmwIef&id=16344197516
    I am very disappointed, the new keyboard wrong characters, press Enter to "----", D to "Enter" key, press F to "JJJ" .........
    I have contacted Digicare Hanoi, but did not fix the error
    Suggest firm MSI explain and suggest ways to overcome
    Currently, my computer uses Windows 8 Pro x64, English and U.S. keyboard
    MSI gT780R code: GT780R-035FRK1106000019

    sorry if my english is not good use

    The MSI item you bought came as it was sold. If you didn't like the original french keyboard layout and now you have a problem with the seller of an aftermarket keyboard or separately sold replacement part contact that seller or the person who installed it. There is nothing this forum or MSI can do about it. It is no problem with an MSI retail item.
    For complaints or warranty claims contact MSI as this is a Users-to-Users Forum: >>How to contact MSI.<<
    Still this is no MSI issue so most likely rma would be refused but you'll see about that.

  • Qosmio F60 - USB ports & touch keys are not working

    Hi,
    After a clean install (win 7 home prem), i found most of the drivers, but still have following problems.
    1) when i hook up my external hdd or any device to any usb port, although it powers and tries to read, but does not show in my computer and does not work
    2) the touch keys (eco, wireless, media buttons) dont work. After installing value added pack, it opens up a button assignment tool and asks me for input for button assignment
    3) The reason for clean install was new 250gig SDD to replace my 750gb toshiba hdd. this is the 3rd time hdd has corrupted in 2 years (not happy), however, the ssd halts the laptop as well, and i have to restart
    Your help is much appreciated.
    [email protected]

    Do you have the latest firmware on the SSD?
    Have you installed all the drivers and software listed on the Toshiba website? Make sure you install the Intel Chipset utility first, then TVAP second.
    Also make sure you have Win7 Service Pack 1 before installing drivers, and update the BIOS to the latest revision.
    If you still can't get it working, you can order the Recovery Discs from Toshiba and install the factory image on the SSD so everything works properly.

  • Lumia 720 Touch Key

    I have a problem. My lumia 720 touch keys are not glowing anymore. What's the problem?
    Batter Saver feature is off and the screen brightness is high. I always leave the brightness to High.

    Did you try rebooting the device ? Also unlock the screen in different lighting conditions (Bright light or dark room) and see if it makes any difference ...

  • IPad Air 2 touch sensitivity problems

    I purchased and iPad Air 2 two days ago.  I noticed the screen had sensitivity problems around the outer edges which were apparent when trying to use the keyboard.  Keys such as "Q," the microphone button and then pressing "done" as well as the character keyboard button and switching between various keyboards, etc. where not responding well to touch.  I exchanged it for another one the next day, brought it home and it exhibited the same problems.  Brought the second one back the store and the two sales associates noted the same thing only they had not come across this before.  They brought out another one which I tried at the store and it had the same unresponsive key problems.  Each iPad exhibited different degrees of this problem.  Bouncing between keys "q" "a" "z" in rapid succession or trying to select the different character keyboards at the very bottom of the screen made the problem.  Sometimes trying to compose an email or deleting one using the icons at the top of the screen exited the same problems.  That was three iPad Air 2's.  Several demo units exhibited the same problem while several others did not.  Is this a defective manufacturing issue or a potential design flaw associated with the new laminated layers of screen?

    Two of the three demo units at the Apple store worked great.  One of them exhibited the same problems I had.  Composing emails was a problem as well as trying to delete email.  Oddly, another persons iPad I tried worked well but they ordered their's online through Apple.  I beginning to believe that there is flawed lot of manufactured iPads.  I refuse to try to buy another one at the Apple Store in RI right now.  I may try to order one online and see what happens.  If that exhibits problems, then I'm done with the iPad Air 2 period.  I'll wait another year or so for the next version.  I would take your's back if I were you. 
    P.S. One thing I noticed with all the problem iPads is that if you're using them microphone button on the keyboard, each model's "ding" noise had some crackling sound with it.  I could replicate it if I waited for a minute or so.  If I pressed the microphone button immediately afterward, it sounded normal.  It's weird - not sure if it's related or not to the sensitivity issue.

  • E71 One Touch Keys

    Just got this phone for little more than 24 hours. The one-touch keys were working fine when I started. Now all, except the home key, doesn't work any more. Sounds like a E61i bug that I recalled some users were having.
    Anyone having similar problems and what's the solution?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I think I found the workaround.
    I set the long press of my email one-touch key to create new emails. After I pressed this key to create emails, it causes all the other one-touch to not respond at all. The only way to get the other keys to respond is to remove battery and SIM card then insert again.
    I have 2 email accounts on my E71, maybe that's why the "create email" command didn't work.
    So I changed that long press to activate web surfing. It has been working like a charm since then.

  • Msi 845PE max2 bluetooth problem

    i have a msi 845PE max2 BFIR, intel 2,4/533 , 512 DDR 2700 and im running w2k pro.
    on the other system i also have w2k pro running.
    my problem i have bought an extra msi bluetooth usb key so i could connect wireless to my p4 system.
    after installing the software (ver:1.2.2.15) i can do : receive business cards,make a serial port connection do file transfers.
    the problem that i have is making a network access connection.
    when i try it i get a dail-in screen, i enter admin + password , the bluetooth is then telling me
    "bezig met het registreren van deze computer in het netwerk"
    (busy with registration of this computer in the network)
    after a couple of seconds there is an error.
    (busy with checking of the networkprotocolconnection)
    "TCP/IP heeft fout 718 gerapporteerd : er is een time-out opgetreden van de verbinding tijdens het wachten op een geldig antwoord van de externe computer"
    (TCP/IP has reported error 718 : there has been a time-out for the connection during the waiting on a approved answer of the external computer)
    does anybody know how i can fix this ?
    thanks in forward

    Hi,
    You're using the "Network access" service of the desktop box I guess? That gives you access to the Bluetooth LAN adapter being installed with the Widcomm software. If you want to make some connections out you have to configure Internet connection sharing on the desktop box as well - and ofcourse make sure that the two devices are correctly paired with sufficient permissions in the security config. I have been running about the same setup on a slightly older 845E Max2-BLR MB using XP with virtually zero issues...

  • MSI GE600 - Simple Communication Controller Drivers

    Hi,
    I recently purchased two MSI GE600 notebooks.  The notebook came with Windows 7 Home Premium, which I replace with Windows 7 Ultimate.  My problem is that I'm missing a driver for "Simple Communication Controller"
    I have installed all the drivers provided by MSI on their website, but still can't figure out what I'm missing.
    Thanks in advance,

  • N97 Touch Screen Problems

    My N97 has intermittent touch screen problems where it will either respond in the wrong location, lag, or just be completely non-responsive. I'm pretty sure that it's not hardware as after completely rebuilding (remove all apps, format the mass memory, hard reset, re-install v2 fw, hard-reset, re-install apps, re-load mass memory) the phone and the touch screen work with no problems for several days, then after 3-4 days the problem reappears.
    I suspect it's related to two problems with the phone: the first is that there is still a bug with the lock/unlock slider; the second is that the phone is too underpowered (CPU & RAM) to multi-task (especially email retrieval) and process the input of the touch screen.
    Is anybody else having similar problems with their N97 touch screen, if so do you have a solution? 
    Nokia N97 (RM-507) v 22
    iPhone 4 (Coming Soon) - Lemon N97 - SE - Nokia 8210 - Nokia 7710 - Nokia 5100

    @froschy:
    My observations are 100% consistent with yours. The packet data end does solve the problem, but only if the screen is not 100% non-responsive. I can also confirm that the WiFi status has absolutely no effect on the problem.
    There are also quite a bit of other possible causes that can be ruled out from the get-go:
    1. Insufficient RAM or CPU in general activity. I can rule this out as the phone works well even if I have 12 applications open at the same time. However, the issues happen sometimes even if nothing is running in the background. If this issue is related to memory leaks or similar bugs, it has nothing to do with the ones I normally run and has to be something in the background (like contacts, phone or messaging, clock, maybe others?) that is cuasing this.
    Also, even when the screen is not responding correctly, I can still do stuff on the phone without lag. This is really weird but very true. I can do pretty much anything as long as I use the slide-keyboard instead of the touchscreen.
    2. The 3G network is not to blame. I live in Romania and I use Vodafone, which has 3.5G (3G+, HSDPA or whatever you want to call it) and is a very well established technology for these guys (they use it since 2005 I believe and have great coverage for it). The fact that you and me both have the same issues pretty much points to no influence on the provider or network type, IMO.
    3. The screen is not faulty. I hope. All pointers rule this out, but really, you never know in the end :-D
    4. The firmware version seems to be irrelevant up to this point. I have been having this problem since v11 and now I'm running v20. If this will be fixed in the future, I have no idea. However, if it gets fixed, we will know.
    =========
    At this point I can also identify some key points about the phone usage which are common to both you and myself:
    1. We use the GPRS / 3G connection on a regular basis.
    2. We use the mobile email client to check email on a regular basis. For my part, I use MailForExchange and keep it in sync pretty much all day long. Though, at work, I use WiFi instead of GSM connection.
    Maybe these two points are of importance. On the other hand, maybe there is something else that may be common to both our phones. I have an N97 RM-505, FW version  20.0.019.C01.01 (firmware is not really relevant anyway).
    Cheers,

  • Follow up to my Luma Key problem

    Hi again,
    Tom has answered to my Luma Key problem of bad quality by recomending me to put the oval form under my clip instead from above, and it worked verz well.
    But now I have another problem, I want now my oval to cross disolve to have the full scene that is now under to come gradually fully on screen. I have a cross disolve at the begining and at the end of the oval. Its fine for the oval to come gradually from full black screen to an oval with behind the 2nd scene, but when it shall starts to disolve, nothing happens. I also try with the pen, adding points and then pulling down in order to have the oval clip gradually dissolving, but nothing works ! Any clue ?
    Thanks,
    Nic

    Nicolas,
    One way to do this is:
    - Oval on V1
    - Clip1 on V2 with Composite Mode > Travel Matte Luma
    - Clip1 also on V3. Change it's opacity so it is 0 until the required number of frames before the end of the Oval. Then increase it's opacity to 100 at the end of the Oval.
    There might be a more efficient way to do this.
