Satellite A100: Media Buttons do not work

Hello!
I have Satellite A100, Windows XP SP2. All multimedia buttons on the left of the keyboard stopped working. They worked yesterday, i did not install anything or even turned the computer off since then. They just stopped working.
Can anyone help me to fix it?
Thank you!

Have you just installed the button controls over the old ones or did you delete them properly first and made a reboot?
Sounds like there's something still left in some parts of the Windows entries.
Maybe you could try to completely uninstall toshiba button control, then search for leftover registries with programs like regcleaner or similar. Make reboot and after that install button control again.
In many cases this method really helps.

  • Media buttons do not work in Satellite P300-21E using Win 7

    Hello,
    after shutting down my laptop, one week ago, the media buttons suddenly stopped working.
    The weird thing is that they are flashing all the time, even when the laptop is off.
    I downloaded the VAP from toshiba website (although the version was a 2009 one, if there is a new one for my laptop please let me know. Maybe I can use a VAP of a similar model.
    My system is Windows 7
    the other weird thing is that I disabled the illumination option from the F2 setup but the media buttons are still on.
    I also tried to take the battery off, etc but nothing
    any ideas?

    Hi
    The VAP is an Toshiba software and as far as I know you can use the other version of VAP which was released for other notebook series.
    For example you could use the VAP released for Satellite P500, P750 series or higher.
    But Im wondering why the buttons led is still ON even if the Illumination is disabled in BIOS.
    > I also tried to take the battery off, etc but nothing
    This was also my idea disconnect AC adaptor, remove battery, press and hold power button 30sec long.
    Then connect the AC adaptor and check the Multimedia button functionality.

  • Satellite A210 - FN buttons are not working with another OS

    Hello,
    I've reinstalled my Toshiba Satellite A210-1BX with another Win OS
    My problem is, that the Fn - button doesn't work and the pop down on the top of the screen isn't there.
    Which driver or programm will I need to install that function? I have installes all driver from the Toshiba site :-/
    Thanks

    To be honest your posting is a little bit confusing.
    First of all the Satellite A210-1BX belongs to the PSAELE series.
    All drivers can be downloaded from the Toshiba European driver page.
    If you are using Vista then install all the drivers from the Toshiba page.
    The VAP (2 or 6 buttons) has nothing to do with FN buttons.
    The 2 or 6 button version is related to the Toshiba Control buttons above the F1-F12 button row.
    The FN buttons will work using the right BIOS (the newest one) and the Value Added Package v1.1.7.

  • Satellite A100 bios update does not work correctly

    Hi,
    I have a Satellite A100-153 PSAA9E and using Vista OS.
    How do I install the new bios?? I run the .exe and nothing happens it shows that it extracts some files and then a notepad text appears that says something like this.
    ' INVENEC Pre-Flash Script for SanAntonio10
    ' 09/26/2006 Version 1.0.0.3
    On Error Resume Next
    '=== Declare Variables & Objects
    Dim WshObj, objArgs
    Dim WMIObj, chipset
    Dim InfoStr, WorkPath
    Dim VideoType
    Dim fso, oFile etc....
    and then an error appears that says if the SanAntonion10 BIOS590MP.exe is installed correct.
    pls help

    Hm, sounds a little bit weird. I would suggest you to do the following:
    go to the drivers download page
    -> http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/download_drivers_bios.jsp
    Download the latest common modules if available and RE-download the BIOS update.
    Then try it again. If this doesnt help then perform a full system recovery, download the BIOS update and then it MUST work.

  • Satellite U500 - The volume buttons do not work

    Hello
    I just bought a Toshiba Satellite U500 two days ago, and already having problems :(
    It has a touch sensitive control buttons, which includes the eco utility, media buttons, and volume control (+ and -)
    The volume buttons do not work, and sometimes the computer freezes upon touching them. Once I touch the -, it keeps turning the volume down until it reaches zero, and even if I turn it up using windows, it returns to zero (like if the button is still being pressed). The + one doesn't work at all.
    Please help. Any way to reinstalle their drivers ?
    The only solution I found is to disable them using HWSetup...

    Solved.
    I just had to uninstall the Toshiba Common Modules, and reinstalled them. It worked.
    I hope it doesn't happen again.

    Hi
    You have to configure the single buttons.
    This Toshiba button support pop up will appear if the pressed button was not configured.
    So press the button and then assign the action, application.
    You have to expand this menu pressing on the small arrow on the right.

  • Satellite P20: Fn+F5 and TV-button does not work

    Satellite P20, Windows XP SP2 keyboard problem.
    When I press Fn + F5, the computer does not show as earlier the different display options. TV button does not work also. I can change the different displays with my nVidia Display Driver.
    My keyboard is OK, there is no dust or fluids. I have newest BIOS update and Windows XP Service Pack 2. What program controls the keyboard functions in this case?
    How to repair this problem?

    Hello
    Obviously you have removed something or preinstalled your own operating system. Without Toshiba designed tools and utilities it will not work. I dont know exactly which of them are for doing this but please try to install Dritek Easy Button Util. /Sticky Keys V1.008, E-Keys Utilities and Toshiba Hotkey Utility.
    I hope it will help. If not please write again.

  • HT201401 My volume control buttons are not working on my Iphone 4s....

    but this only occurs when I don't have headphones in or I am not on a call.  If I have headphones in or if I am on a call using either the earpiece or speakerphone I have full volume control.  If I am using my phone to listen to music or anything else where there is audio the volume buttons do not work.  When I press the button the buttons the ringer icon appears on the screen but there are no bars under the icon and it doesn't move the volume.  I have tried rebooting the phone as well as blowing out the headphone port and the charging port.  My phone is updated to the latest release.  Any help would be much appreciated.

    Hi
    Are you talking about the function buttons F1-F9?
    These buttons work in connection with FN button; i.e Fn + F5
    The Value Added Package as well as the Toshiba Flash Card Support Utility needs to be installed in order to use the flash cards (the menu on the screen showing the function buttons)
    These software parts can be downloaded here:
    http://www.mytoshiba.com.au/support/computers/satellite/a660/psaw3a-07t00r/download?os=25
    Note: before you would start with new installation try to restart the flash cards: all programs -> Toshiba -> Flash Cards

  • My iPod Touch 4th Generation is crashing a lot. And the home button is not working.

    Recently my iPod would crash when I go on Youtube or any other app or it would be super slow. My current IOS is 6.1.3. The iPod starts working again when I turn it off and on but only for a couple of minutes. Also the home button does not work when I press it.

    To reset the iPod without the hardware buttons,
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected. You will have to rejoin wifi networks and repair BT devices
