Msi gs 70 backlight on the keyboard not turning on anymore

i have had my gs70 for about a month now, and all is working fine (other than the windows 8.1 bs with the mouse pad) until i pressed the function key with the + and/or the - key(s) by the number pad on the right of the keyboard. the backlight of the keyboard now does not turn on. even when the computer starts back up it doesn't even turn on for that slight moment as the computer starts up. so... anyone who has some sort of solution other than reseting the whole computer, experience with this bug/glitch/pain give me suggestions cheers

With the GS series of laptops, there is no removable battery.
Therefore you need to remove the AC adapter, and push a button with a pin/paperclip on the side of the laptop and hold it in for approximately 10 seconds I believe. Then apply AC and turn the laptop on. That should do it, hopefully.
If that didn't fix it, hmmm.....
The next thing I might suggest looking at is inside the BIOS. I'm not 100% sure with the GS70, but there might be a setting in there that enables/disables the backlight. Could you check in there?

Backlight does not turn on anymore Satellite M70-147

Hello outhere,
The backlight of my M-series M70-147 does not turn on anymore.
I first noticed this when awakening the laptop from standby or hibernation mode.
At first I thought the screen was not working anymore, but when I looked closely I could still make out the icons on the desktop vaguely. So at first I rebooted the laptop and then most of the times the backlight would turn on and stay on.
But now it does not do that anymore, not even when I close the screen (to force standby mode) and then open it again, the backlight won't turn on.
I also looked at other forums and topics what the cause might be, a broken backlight or a faulty power inverter.
So can anybody with the symptons described tell me what the cause might be?
I'm pretty sure nothing is wrong with the graphics card because when I hooked on my laptop to my dads LCD monitor it just displayed the desktop of my laptop on the LCD monitor. Also the first time I did this after pressing Fn-F5 a few times the screen of my laptop would come on some times. But now it does not do that anymore.
So can anybody with the symptons described tell me what the cause might be?
Many thanks.

> So can anybody with the symptons described tell me what the cause might be?
For me it looks like a faulty FL inverter.
The FL inverter is a small part behind the display frame and it controls the backlight.
Usually the external display should work properly because the FL inverter affects the internal display only...
However, the issue can be solved only by replacement of this part.
I recommend contacting the Toshiba ASP in your country to get this part replaced

from the information you provided i can't tell if it is a hardware problem or a software problem. I do have an idea though, try to press your home button and lock button at the same time.

hopefully you have a backup to either icloud or itunes because you need to but the device into recovery and then restore

The system is back up and fully functional. How long has it been since you stopped receiving notifications? Can you share your form with us so we can have a look into what might be going wrong?

Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. Happened to me once, about 6 months ago, and a reset got it working again.

My new AirPort Extreme will not turn on anymore, no lights when plugged in.

My new AirPort Extreme will not turn on anymore, no lights when plugged in. I just bought it a few days ago. It has been working fine. I left the house for most the day and when returning home it would turn back on. I have tried to plug it into other outlets...nothing, I've tried the reset button...Nothing.

That is reported here a few times.. just take it straight back to apple or place of purchase for immediate exchange.

MSI K8N Diamond Posting but then keyboard not working or frezzing

To save me writing it all again here is what i sent to MSI tch support. Would like to add to what i have wrote below that when it freezes i get a sound like fast clicks coming from the case speaker . Oh and also have tried removing battery for a while. I get the feeling it more than just a keyboard problem and is something more seriouse.
After reading here i should also have added the powr supply voltage stuff but i am in a diferent house using my mothers PC. I know the 12v was 17amp but not sure about 5 and 3v. I think 5 was in 30s and maybe same for 3v. I will check tjhat later but i dont think it a power problem although to run SLI i will have to get a new power supply by looks of it. I have tried disconecting everything except the Graphics card and the processor to minimise power needed. My PCU was £50 and it didnt say what the amps where for 12 5 and 3v before i baught it or i wouldnt have. though with it being 480w and £50+ it would be good enough to run any PC i could build. Anyhow i dont think it that i get feeling the BOIS is corrupted or something but without keyboard going i cant flash my BOIS. Also i have since noticed that the processe i have isnt listed as one supported on MSI web site. I purchased the motherboard from DABS and in specs it said it supported all 64 and X2 AMD processors. Anyhow please help me if you can
Oh and in post where it freezes it lists my processor as a AMD Hammer model unknown?. Dont think that right for the 3000X2 but i cant be sure.

Problem Description: I have just built my own PC with one of your motherboards. You can see the configuration above. The problem i am having is that when i start it up it begins ok but then says CMOS error loading safe defaults or somthing simalar. under that it says press f11 (i think it is) to continue or del to enter setup. Problem is i dont think my keyboard is initilalising. I have tried 3 diferent keyboards all PS2 conections. But non of then seem to work and i can not get into set up. I have tried resetting the BOIS with the BOIS reset botton. Also i have noticed that the keyboard LED light that usually light up when keyboard is working are not lighting up as if they not getting power. It list my memory. 1gb of it but it says my Prcessor is AMD but of unknown model. I am guessing i could sort that if i could get into the BOIS or get keyboard working and update the BOIS maybe. The USB conection bracket that comes with the motherboard that has 4 diagnosis lights on it stop when they get to 3 RED and 1 Green in top right pos.In manual it says this is (Initializing Floppy Drive Controller).
It was stopping before with 2 GREEN and 2 RED. A Green in top Left and Bottom Right and A RED at top right and bottom left. In the manual it says this is(BIOS Sign On). When it was stopping there it stopped on the MSI graphics Full Screen LOGO Display. It said press delete to enter setup ot TAB to goto POST but as now keyboard didnt seem to work. I removed the Wirless network card that comes with the mother board and now it goeas past this screen but gets stuck at the part i said above.
I have now tried removing things one by one. I have so far removed all CD and DVD devices, Hard drives, Floppy drive and network Card. Also i have removed the extra netwok bracket conectors. I now only have the Memeory, Processor and the Graphics cards installed. I would like to mention also that before i had installed the 2 graphics cards i had tested it and it was stopping at the (BIOS Sign On) I could tell this with the 4 LED light for diagnosis. I thought that was due only to no graphics cards but once i installed them it was same. I only got by that by removing wirlessnetwork card that comes with the mother board. Please respons quickly as i am building this as a chrismas pressent for my daughter and it would be a disaster if i cant get it going before christmas.
Thank You
Joseph Gary Winters.

Joseph,
You are building a very nice system for your daughter. It is however a very power hungry system. I suspect that your present PSU cannot provide enough sustained amperage annd wattage to its 12 volt rail to satisfy your motherboard and peripherals needs. My recommendation are that you acquire a new PSU that will provide a minimum of 24 amps on its single 12 volt rail. If you get a multi-12 volts rail one; insure that it will provide a minimum of 18 Amps on each 12 volt rails. Wattage should also be sufficient to leave you a minimum of 300 wats available for the 12 volt rail(s). Look at a 500 + watt PSU from a reputable OEM.
You may also have by now a very conmfused BIOS/CMOS so before you go shopping for PSU do the following:
1- Turn off, unplug and remopve old PSU:
2- Reset CMOS using Button (if CMOS Jumpers available reset CMOS with them too and leave in reset position)
3- Remove battery form motherboard
4- Go shopping for new PSU and buy a new battery for motherboard while at it (they are relatively cheap)
5- Install new motherboard battery and reset CMOS jumper if needed
6- Re-install PSU and connect to only needed items (motherboard X 2, one VGA card only, one HD, and one CD)
7- Try re-booting straight to BIOS setup and then reset its options to suit your system, (pay particular attention to RAM voltage)
8- Save and exit to a Memtest86 disk and run for min 8 hours with no errors
9- if OK suggest you reset and load your OS from a stream installation CD with only minimum peripherals attached.
10- Once your OS is onboard then add other peripherals
Good luck,

Backlighting on the keyboard has suddenly stopped. Help?

I have a MacBook Pro (Retina 13", Core i5 2.8 ghz, OSX Yosemite 10.10). The backlighting on my keyboard suddenly stopped. I've tried re-booting and making changes in settings, but that has not fixed the problem. Anyone else run into this?

Having the same issue, would love to know if you were able to resolve it. I'm also not able to use Tab, Return, and F12 for some reason.

MSI P6N SLI Platinum- Wake on Keyboard Not working

Minor issue...... but the wake on keyboard is not working consistently. I still have version 1.0 of the bios. I can set it in the power management and it works! maybe once..... then nothing. Works again (once) when you reset it. But doesn't consistently stay working! I have a USB mouse, so the wake on PS2 mouse isn't happening.
Any thoughts?
It's not a huge issue but I would like the bios options to be working as it looks like they were intended. It's just different in that my last 3 machines I could turn on from hitting a key on the keyboard and not having to get the power button on the case. I'm using the same Microsoft corded keyboard that was working for this on the last build.

No I have the SLI MB, this web site was from a MSI tech, the web site is ftp.msi.com.tw/ with not only all the BIOS files but the most updated divers. I could never find these files on their web site before. Here's the web site for the MS-7350 MB ftp://ftp.msi.com.tw/BIOS/7350/.
I did get it resolved with the wake on S3 Mode, you know hit any key. Here's the test to tell if your MB is good or bad. The easiest way is go into BIOS and turn on your number lock, make sure the light is on your keyboard, also make sure your bios is in "S3" mode w/hit any key option on. While in bios turn off your PC w/the case PB, does your number lock light stay on? If it does, your PC will boot-up. I can repeat this over and over. If you get the same results, the next test will be the last. when you turn the PC off in Bios, and the number lock light stays on, switch off your power supply, and wait about 10 sec. and then turn your power supply back on, if your keyboard number lock light never came back on, your "S3" mode on your MB is BAD according to the MSI tech. I like this MB, but it's time for a RMA. I hope the next MB wakes up right.
Uzzi
Uzzi, Did what you suggested and the light stays on when turning the PB off but then turns off and does not come back on when the power supply is cycled. I sent in a tech support request to MSI Tech. Did they tell you to RMA it? I guess I could send it back to the Egg for replacement..... but hate to keep eating shipping costs!

Keys on the Keyboard not working.

A couple keys on my keyboard are not working. The Y is one of them. Every time I click Y it makes this noise but it doesn't type Y. I know the problem is not with the hardware because I replaced the keyboard with a brand new one and it still is the same. Is there any way to fix this? Thank you very much for your time.
Take care,
Andrew

Open the Speech pane of System Preferences and check what the Speech and Listening keys are; if necessary, change the setting.

Satellite P300 - is there a backlight for the keyboard?

Hi - does anyone know if the Satellite P300 has a back light for the keyboard? I am assuming it does as the keys are shiny black but cannot for the life of me figure out how to turn it on. Any assistance is appreciated.

As far as I know illuminated keyboard will be offered with new notebook series A500 and P500.
I am 100% sure Satellite P300 has not such keyboard.
You can check specifications for different Satellite /Satellite pro P300 models and you will see that nowhere is mentioned such keyboard.
