Satellite P300-1EU: I cannot use my keypad

Hi everybody, I have a big big problem,
I have got a Toshiba P300 1EU, and for yesterday i can't use my keypad.
When i click on "Num Lock" I see on the screen the same thing if I press "FN".
I already make a system restore but it's don't work :/
I don't know what I can do,
Thank you answer me :)

Hi mate
Just one question; was the motherboard replaced?
I read that numypad might not work after the motherboard has been replaced.
This can happen due to missing or wrong settings in the DMI.
As far as I know the DMI an be updated only by ASP so in such case the ASP technician should be contacted.

Satellite A300 and WIn7 - cannot use media buttons

I have Satellite A300 laptop.
Recently I reinstalled my Windows 7 Pro x64 using update option (not clean install). So I kept my program and settings. However the media player panel (or whatever it is called) that lets me play, stop music, change songs etc. is not fully working. I can't use 2 "buttons": one that lets me turn on/off highlighting and the other one that turns media player on.
I need them working. I tired Toshiba button support, but I don't know what to do there.

Hello
What you must install is Toshiba Value Added Package. I use Win7 on my A300 and all buttons work perfectly. But I use 32bit version.
I dont know if your A300 is supported for Win7 64 bit but you can try to use THIS version.
Before you start installation remove old version, if exist, restart notebook and install this version.
I hope this will help you.

Satellite P300-150 PSPC4E: Cannot get Express Card slot working with XP

Hello.
I have downgraded to XP on my machine and unfortunetly I am unable to get the Express card slot to work.
The Intel chipset drivers on the Toshiba site haven't dont anything.
I am trying to get an eSata port working via the express card like I did with Vista but no joy at all.
Any ideas?
Regards
Rob

Go to Device Manager and check if the express card is installed properly, or if its reporting an error.
You should update the BIOS to the latest version. BIOS updates can sometimes fix problems like this.
And ensure you have XP Service Pack 2 or 3 installed.

HDD Recovery - Satellite P300-1GQ

Is it possible to perform recovery of factory default software or recovery to out-of-box state for my laptop Satellite P300-1GQ?
Ive used Toshiba HDD Recovery Tool and it only formatted the C partition leaving the partition D unchanged. Vista is running smoothly, all data on D partition are available. I could just format the partition D but the catch is that the folder titled HDD recovery is stored on D partition. Back in 2009 when I purchased my laptop I created the HDD Recovery DVDs as instructed. I could use them and format the entire hard disk but the information I got from the support technician in my country told me that the new HDD recovery folder would not be created.
I just want to wipe the entire drive and perform fresh installation, having again HDD recovery folder on D partition of the disk, in short: as it is now. Is this possible or not?

To be honest, the difference between the recovery DVD and a recovery HDD tool was confusing. Vista ran for 2,5 years before I had to reinstall it. And that was the moment when the confusion started.
I thought recovery DVDs I made 2,5 years ago should be used if and when a recovery HDD tool fails. And I thought those two options were going to do the same thing: format the entire drive i.e. return the laptop to factory settings (Ive done this countless times with XP and I know the drill).
But I was really surprised when I saw recovery HDD tool formatting only partition C (where Vista is). I thought I made a mistake (didnt check a box or something) and ran the process again.
But no, this tool only formats C i.e. the partition where OS is.
I checked the manual and there was no reference about formatting only one partition but the entire drive itself. In fact the description for both options (recovery DVD and a recovery HDD tool) where the same.
I think they forgot to mention what happens if you have two or more partitions.
Then I called support for Toshiba (in my country) and they told me that if I use the recovery DVDs I will return the laptop to factory settings but without HDD recovery folder on D. And again I was more confused :)
So, that is the reason why I asked you the second question :)

Satellite P300 - keypad going crazy

Hi !
I have a Satellite P300, and my main board broke weeks ago.
I picked it back this morning, but since the reparation, I have a little bit of a problem :
The keyboard has a separate keypad, which a can activate/inactivate with the Num Lock key.
When the num lock is activated (green LED on), pressing the keypad gives me number ; but a part of my alphabetic keybord also gives me number (keys : u, i, o, p, j, k, l, m, ...).
This part of the keyboard is supposed to be a keypad that can be switched on with the Fn key.
As long as I don't have any Fn + key combination, I cannot turn this function off.
The only way for me to use my keypad is to turn it on when I need it, and off right after I used it...
Does someone have a solution ???
Thanks

Hi!
I agree with Mores. You should contact an ASP and ask a technician for help.
They have experience with this.
On the Toshiba website you can search for an ASP:

My gps is not working. I cannot use turn-by-turn navigation in google maps. I downloaded a GPS test app and it showed my phone is not locking on any satellites. How can I correct this?

We certainly want to make sure you get the most out of the GPS, wplaxico! Was this tested primarily outdoors? When did this begin? Any other recent apps of updates installed when this started?

Satellite Pro P300-26U - Can I use a second HDD?

Satellite P300 family support raid0 and double HDD. All model? User manual of 26U don't say any word about this. Model like P300-1BP has double HDD.
Can someone help me? I want to buy a P300-26U in Italy.
Thanks.
Guido

Hi
The Satellite P300 series doesnt support RAID!
There is NO RAID controller on the motherboard.
But you are right; the Satellite Pro P300-BP supports 2 HDDs but this does not meant that it would support RAID!
Furthermore you should know that P300 series supports different hardware specifications.
This means that not all P300 would be able to use 2 HDDs!!!
It could be possible that Satellite Pro P300-26U is not able to use 2 HDDs even though the Satellite Pro P300-BP support 2 HDDs.

Can I use a second HDD in Satellite P300-27x?

Cannot use the F1-12 functions on my Satellite C55-A-19K

Hello there
Satellite C55-A-19K have an keyboard drivers?
I cannot use the F1-12 functions and cannot get the wireless on since its on the keyboard...
Can some 1 help please?

Hi
The basic setting on these models is that the special functions on the [F1]-[F12] keys are used without [FN].
So for example activating / deactivating the touchpad is done from [F5] (not [FN] [F5])
It is also possible to change this behaviour. Setting the Function-keys to traditional mode in the BIOS will revert back to the keys used along with [FN].
So activating / deactivating the touchpad in traditional function key mode, requires [FN] [F5].
So be sure to check your function key behavoiur - if you have set it to use [FN] first or not.
And keep in mind that in case the current mode is not what you want, you may change it.
Hope this helps
BR Tom

Satellite P300-18M - Is using the card reader for Vista Ready Boost OK?

Hi there,
I have a P300-18M, and, due to getting a new phone, have an 8GB Micro SD Card spare.
I have put this in the card reader, and I am currently using it for Ready Boost, even though I have 3GB of RAM, there is definately a performance boost...
However, does anyone know if this could endanger the card reader? (ie damage it in any way) from being used all the time?
Thanks
Jack

Hmm. I wonder about the 8GB Micro SD Card.
As far as I know and according to some details in the internet, the Satellite P300 supports the microSD (with adapter) card 512MB - 4GB.
Usually the notebooks card reader should not recognize bigger microSD cards than 4GB.
Nevertheless I doubt it could affect the card reader functionality in worst case the 8GB microSD card will not be recognized by card reader
Cheers

Satellite P300-19P not able to capture audio using Chicony Cam software

Hey,
I recently upgraded to windows 7 from vista and since then i have not been able to capture audio with the camera assistant software.
I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling, repairing the program, changing the audio settings, running in compatibility mode, i have practically exhausted everything i can think of.
Can anybody help at all?
Marc
Toshiba Satellite P300-19P

(if any other info is required then please ask me)

Hi
You mean you are not able to record the audio using the internal microphone.
Is it right?
In your case I would recommend checking the audio device settings inside the camsoftware.
In settings -> audio tab (last tab) you will find the necessary settings.
The audio device field should contain the microphone (2 Realtek high definition device) and the audio volume option should be set to max (to right).

Satellite P300: Display Driver has stopped working using external monitor

I have a number of these Satellite P300 PSPCCA-OC201Y and recently bought external monitors for them.
Since then we seem to be getting "Display Driver has stopped working and has recovered" messages, then after about 5 of these, it crashes.
Starting with one machine, I have updated display drivers, bios was current, all to no avail.
I then did a complete system restore back to original. Has not solved the problem.
Any ideas?

hi Keven Dickenson,
as you said you restored the system and still there is no way to get things work it may be a hardware issue...
i my opinion you should consult a servicepartner to check this out...
is there any of the machines working with the external monitor at all?
if none of them is able to connect to ext. display maybe your installation has a problem or the monitor is faulty...
try it with another monitor and recover one system to factory installation....

Re: Satellite L850-0C9 - Cannot use USB3.0 External HDD

Hello!
I'm looking for some help from you guys
because i cannot use my NEW SEAGATE USB 3.0 EXTERNAL HDD 2TB with my labtop (L850-0C9)
my labtop has 2 blue USB port and i guess it is USB 3.0 and i checked it from manual.
but when i tried to copy data to the hard disk, and after 1 minute then it keeps showing the message "the destination you have specified does not exist". it happens everytime.
but i found one interesting point of it that it works great with usb 2.0 port so now i'm using it with that port.
it shows that the hdd doesn't have problem but my laptop does in my logic.
so i updated almost every drivers and firmware from support page icluding intel usb 3.0 driver.
but it is showing the same message as before.
Does anyone know how to solve it?
Have a nice easter holiday anyway!!

nope! it is without AC power unit.
but it is working okay with usb 2.0 port..
