Satellite P205 - mouse activation of FN display

I am using a Satellite P205 with Vista OS. The Toshiba FN functions are displayed by either pressing the FN key or moving the mouse over the top of the display screen. It is the mouse over activation that bothers me.
Often enough, in general use, my mouse will enter the area that triggers the display and if I use the left mouse button the associated function is activated. If I am working quickly this will happen unintentionally. I am finding this increasingly annoying and would like to disable the mouse over activation. If I want to use the FN option, I want to do so with the FN key.
Does anyone know how to disable the mouse over display?

To be honest I am wondering you ask this. I know, it sounds now stupid but I will tell you why.
If you don't like some function it is logic to check all available options for something.
So if you open Settings for Flash Cards you will find one option there *Allow the mouse to bring up the cards.*
Just remove the check mark for this option and the Flash Cards will be shown when you use FN key only.
Bye and if you have more questions you are welcome. ;)

  • Satellite p205, hd wiped clean,missing os,formatting

    I have a satellite p205,32 bit with vista home premium. Had "Hacked by Godzilla" & wanted to get rid of it. I called toshiba tech support for help & they said the only way to be rid of it was to do a full recovery. Sold me the restore disk set. When I ran the disk it wiped my HD clean. Now I get a message "missing operating system" error code "08-064B-0000". When running the 1st disk again I get the missing operating system and a pop-up telling me that I first need to format hard drive (C). After calling Toshiba tech support again the person tells me that I need to take it to a Toshiba service center and they will fix it for a cost of $400. I didn't mind kicking the $25 for the disk set,although I wish I wouldn't have now, but the $400 for them to fix it I do mind. I didn't like the FIX the disk did for $25...I'm not so sure I want to upgrade to the $400 FIX ! Need some help with the formatting...any suggestions? Thanks in advance.......

    From the Toshiba manual:
    If you need to recover your computer to its default factory state, you
    can rebuild the system using your Hard Drive Recovery Utilities.
    To recover your hard disk drive using the utilities burned to CDs or
    DVDs (refer to “Creating Recovery CDs/DVDs” on page 59):
    1 Insert the first recovery CD or DVD into your optical drive and
    power on the computer.
    2 When the initial screen displays, press F12.
    The boot menu appears.
    3 Using the arrow keys, select the CD/DVD option and press
    Enter. The system will boot up to the Toshiba Recovery Wizard
    screen.
    Please refer to “Hard Disk Drive Recovery options” on
    page 61, to explain the available recovery options.
    quote:
    The following are the available hard disk drive recovery options:
    ❖ Hard Disk Drive Recovery using the recovery partition
    ❖ Recovering the original factory image (recommended recovery
    method)
    ❖ Erasing the hard disk
    ❖ Recovering the C: partition of the HDD without changing the
    current partition size
    ❖ Recovering the C: partition with a user specified size
    ❖ Hard Disk Drive Recovery using the Recovery media
    ❖ Checking the HDD operating status

  • Memory upgrade on Satellite P205

    Gents, is it possible to increase RAM memory to 6 or 8 GB Windows 7 in the Satellite P205-S6337?
    Can it use Windows 7 , operating in 64 bits ?
    Thank you

    Maximum RAM capacity for this notebook is 4096MB.
    Generally speaking you can use 64bit OS but check at first if this model is supported for 64bit operating systems. Without support there is no sense to install 64bit OS version due to missing drivers, tools and utilities.

  • Memory upgrade failed -satellite P205

    Satellite P205-S6287 has 2 GB RAM and specs say two slots and should support 4 GB max. I installed new RAM and laptop turns on very briefly, no screen, just power on light and a disk rumble for 1-2 seconds then nothing else with both RAM slots loaded.  It will start normally with either one of the two RAM slots loaded, but when I add the second sodimm I get the behavior above. Updated BIOS to 1.70 from 1.30. Running Vista. Any suggestions?

  • How to recovery my Satellite P205

    Hi everybody
    I have a Satellite P205-S6247. I had problems with my Windows Vista and I would like to recover the machine to the "factory" state, but the machine did not come with the recovery CDs.
    I've seen that there is a small partition in the HD (about 4GB), is that partition for recovery purposes? How can I restore the machine?
    Thanks in advance.
    Guillermo

    Hello
    I presume you have an US notebook model. Am I right about that?
    Just short comment: usually the recovery DVD is delivered with most of notebook models. In case that recovery DVD is not delivered there is maybe an option to create own recovery DVD media for further handling. Please check all documents you got with your notebook. Maybe somewhere you can find info about that.

  • Toshiba Satellite P205-S7469 DVD Rom Replacement

    Does anyone know how to replace the DVD Burner in a Toshiba Satellite P205-S769?  I am assuming that I need to remove the keyboard in order to get to the drive.  Is this similar to other Satellite models where I could simply remove the keyboard securing strip?

  • Possible to have mouse activated slider with buttons for selection

    Hi,
    I was wondering if anyone has/is or if this can be dome easy enough....
    For example, instead of placing a row of buttons on the bottom of the template, instead, is it possibloe to have a mouse activated slider that the buttons are on and is activated when the mouse hovers over it.....?
    Hope that explanation is clear enough...;-)
    Cheers

    Captivate 7 has an option to show playbar on hover.  It becomes available when you select Overlay Playbar.  But this only applies to the standard skins that come with Captivate.  It won't help your specific need to have a set of buttons appear on hover over a hit area.
    It should be possible to do what you want.  But you'll need to group the buttons, give the group a name, create separate advanced actions that apply a fly-in and fly out effect to the group, then execute these actions via an event.  In your case you want the event to occur as a result of a rollover and rollout on a hit area.
    Captivate's slidelet object has a rollover event, but no rollout event you can use.
    The only way I know to have both rollover and rollout events is to use the Infosemantics Event Handler widget:

  • Toshiba Satellite P205-S6267 - DVD Burner unable to read DVDs only CDs

    Hi,
    Trying to reinstall Vista on my Toshiba Satellite P205-S6267 laptop but the optical drive will not read any DVDs at all only CDs. So I'm unable to install Vista which is only on DVD but WinXP on CD is detected and installs OK except for XP driver issues which makes loading XP useless. I have been at this problem for few days scouring various internet forums which mostly speak to the registry issue with lower and upper filters. But if I can't get the OS installed then those solutions don't apply to me. I need help. Anyone..anyone??? 

    Satellite P205-S6267
    You're in luck!
    Your model belongs to part-number family PSPB0U, which corresponds to part-number family PSPB0E for computers made in Europe.
    Go to the European download site and look up the Satellite P200 with Short Model No. PSPB0E.
     When you filter on Windows XP, you'll find 36 items listed.

  • Satellite P205-S6277: Can I take off the battery and connect the power too?

    I am working on my notebook Toshiba satellite P205-S6277, 80% of my time at home.
    Can I take off the battery and connect the power to a backup UPS in order to make battery life longer?
    I can charge it once a week.

    Of course you can do this. You can remove the battery and work on AC power supply only. Be sure there is no dust on the desk and the battery place on the notebook stay clean for further usage.

  • Can i use track pad and mouse when using two displays

    I have a second display I wonder if I can use my mouse for the other display and my track pad for my macbook pro.
    if not what will be the solution.
    ps: my second display is a tv.

    Although Apple has enabled multiple Finder and Dock display functionality as an option within Mission Control preferences, there is no means to assign pointing devices to different displays.
    I have two Apple devices: Magic Trackpad and Mouse. One mouse pointer is allocated to both devices regardless which screen I am using. That's the way it is.

  • Satellite P205-S6237 - Display driver for Windows 7

    When I boot up Windows 7, after the Windows 7 logo my screen goes black. The computer is still on, I just can't see anything. I can access safe mode just fine.
    If I disable the two Mobile Intel 945 Express Chipset Family drivers, I can get into Windows 7 however I can't use hibernate or sleep mode, and the highest resolution is 1280x800. I need a driver that works. Please help me.
    I've downloaded all the drivers and tried them from Toshiba & Intel however none of them work

    Hi buddy,
    Its not a good idea installing all drivers you can find. This could muddle up the operating system and cause such errors.
    Usually the drivers provided on Toshiba page are always work. At the moment I would recommend removing all display drivers that you have installed now (you can do this in safe mode). Then restart your computer (also in safe mode) and run a registry cleaner like CCleaner to remove old registry keys. Restart again and now install the newest Toshiba display driver for your model.
    Your model is listed on Toshiba US page:

  • Satellite A300 PSAG0A - Games Will Not Display in Full Screen Size

    I have a large number of games installed on my computer. At least 90% of them will not display in full screen size but display in a small window with a large amount of black screen surrounding the window. I am running Windows Vista Home Premium 32 bit. However, I do not think it has anything to do with Windows as my husband runs the same games on his Toshiba Satellite L300, running exactly the same version of windows, and they all display in full screen size.
    Altering the screen resolution makes no difference. And, of course, I do select the full screen option in the games.
    Also, sometimes when I have been playing a game and then closed it I find that my desktop picture has shrunk to the smaller size - the same size as the window in which the game was displayed when I was playing it.
    The games work fine in every other way, it is only this small screen size which is driving me nuts.
    I hope that someone can help me with this!!

    Yes, as far as I can tell I have the latest driver. But, even this is confusing to me because....
    My graphics media accelerator is Mobile Intel(R) 965 Express Chipset Family. The installed driver version is 7.14.10.1329. The release date for this is 2007-09-13, as far as I can tell from web searches.
    However, on the Toshiba website for driver downloads, the available driver version is 8.2.0.1012 PV. The date is 2006-12-28. I have downloaded this driver and attempted to install it. I get the message that it has been installed but, after rebooting and checking the installed driver version is still 7.14.10.1329.
    Perhaps, the 8.2.0.1012 PV version does not actually install because it is older than the currently installed version. I would have thought that the driver version with the higher number would be the newer one, but perhaps this is not the case as the dates do not seem to support this theory.
    So now I ask myself, firstly, if the driver available for download on the Toshiba website is not the newest one, then why is it there?
    Secondly, if it is the newest one then why will it not install on my computer?

  • How to get mouse over shape to display data in Visio 2013?

    Hi Visio pros,
    I am required to create a diagram of our servers rack setup and will be publishing to a Web page using Visio 2013.
    The goal is to mouse over the server shape and have the data be displayed. I have followed arguably every solution on the internet. I am either doing it wrong, or it might be outdated information.
    I'm hoping Paul Herber, or other Visio pros would be able to help me with this situation as I am on a tight schedule and have exhausted my resources.
    Things I have tried:
    user.visEquivTitle in ShapeSheet
    http://visualsignals.typepad.co.uk/vislog/2012/02/no-mouseover-with-visequivtitle.html
    and
    prop.(data name) in the comments within the miscellaneous section of the ShapeSheet.

    Hi Sir!
    I am open to the possibility that I may have done something wrong as I am very new to Visio.
    Here are the steps I followed:
    http://visio.mvps.org/ShapeSheet/
    Browser that I am using is Internet Explorer since I ran into problems with Google Chrome.
    However, after more reading I noticed the User.visEquivTitle provides a tooltip. If it is what I think it is, which is a small yellow box displaying a string, my employer would not want that.
    We're looking for something that will provide an aesthetic display of data after mouse over onto the shape.
    Thank you very much for your help.
