Satellite Pro C650 - missing Hotkey Utility after Win7 64-bit installation

I've just installed Win7 64 bit on a C650 laptop but I don't see the Hotkey utilities for wireless on/off or touchpad (Fn F8 &F9) on the Toshiba list of drivers.
Do these utlilies exist? Where would I get them from?
Ritchie.

You must install Toshiba value added package. This package contains several tools and utilities.
Please download and install latest version from Toshiba support page - http://eu.computers.toshiba-europe.com
If you need more help you are welcome.

  • Satellite Pro C650, Boots OK, after Windows starts up the screen goes white

    Hi,
    I have a Satellite Pro C650.
    It boot fine.
    I can see Windows starting up - after startup - the screen goes completely white.
    Has anyone seen this?
    Am geussing it might be a loose display connection - but I the screen displays the startup sequence and initial windows startup.
    Regards,

    Hi
    I dont think your display is faulty.
    What happens if you access the BIOS at the beginning?
    To access the BIOS press F2 while powering on the unit.
    Access the BIOS and keep it running for some minutes and check if the display will turn to white.
    Additionally its advisable to connect an external monitor and to output the display to the 2nd screen. If the 2nd screen would not be OK, then the graphic chip might be the troublemaker.

  • Satellite Pro C650 - Which startup programs can I disable?

    After about two weeks with a new Satellite Pro C650 that I bought for my wife, a lightweight user, she is about to throw it at me.
    Everything runs slowly. Click start: wait. Open the Control Panel: wait. The wait time is in the range of 20 - 30 seconds. Internet is often slower - especially Internet Explorer, which often goes into a Not Responding state. (Google Chrome performs better although it's not great either) Steps taken so far include a defrag of the C: drive, which was 5% defragmented. I ran a troubleshooting scan off of the Control Panel and it informs me that I have loads of programs running on start-up and suggests I disable some. I had read previously that this is a problem with this Toshiba.
    The question then is what to disable? I don't know what most of the programs are or what they do. I'll list the programs here and then gladly take suggestions. By the way, BitDefender was listed three times in the start-up list. I disabled two of them for what it's worth.
    The only apps I downloaded were BitDefender and Adobe Acrobat. McAfee antivirus has been removed. Other laptops in the house work fine with the same wireless broadband connection. Hoping someone can help out and tell me what I can disable.
    The Start-up list:
    SAIICpl Application
    Synaptics Pointing Device Driver
    Message Center
    SmartFaceVWatcher
    Catalyst Control Center
    Nero BackItUp
    Default Manager
    BitDefender 2011 (listed three times)
    Adobe Acrobat
    Adobe Reader and Acrobat Manager
    All of these Toshiba applications:
    - Power Saver
    - Zooming Utility
    - Flash Cards
    - ReelTime
    - TEMPRO
    - HDD SSD Alert
    - Volume Regulators
    - Notebook Registration
    - Service Station
    - Web Camera Application
    Thanks.

    Hi
    First of all you can find out yourself what the single applications do and what are controlled by these apps use google to get more details.
    But Nero BackItUp, Adobe Acrobat, Adobe Reader and Acrobat Manager can be disabled wihotu having any problems with the notebook
    TEMPRO is a Toshiba tool which scans the systems and provides info about new Toshiba driver updates
    Its your own personal decision if you want to use it or not
    Notebook Registration helps you to register the notebooks warranty and Service Station provides some option to optimize the notebooks performance but its nice to have but its not very important

  • My Satellite Pro C650 doesn't start or charge

    Hi,
    can someone please help me?!
    I just purchased my Toshiba Satellite Pro C650.
    Charged it for 16 hours, set it up and after restarting it went off and now it doesn't turn on of charge at all.

    Hi
    Remove the batter and disconnect the AC adaptor.
    Then wait some hours and connected both parts to the notebook again.
    Then try to power up the unit.
    If this will not help you, then I would recommend asking a notebook technician for an check. If there is no sign of life, then a serious hardware problem might be possible.

  • Satellite Pro C650 - Audio keeps cutting out

    Hi Guys,
    I have searched high and low for the answer to this and its driving me insane. I really hope you guys can help me out!
    I have a Toshiba Satellite Pro C650 01301J laptop running Windows 7 Professional 32Bit. I try and listen to music either through spotify or simply using my library of music in Windows Media Player,
    however after a while the audio cuts out. It isnt muted in mixer and the song keeps playing as if nothing has happened, except I cant hear anything.
    This is fixed when I mute and unmute or turn the volume up or down using the fn keys.
    When I first start up the music it will take 5 minutes or so before it happens, however once it starts it will cut out every 10 seconds or so. This gets extremely annoying and I am convinced there must be a solution.
    My audio driver is Conexant CX20671 SmartAudio HD version 4.119.0.61. I have tried deleting this and reinstalling it, downloading an older driver and updating it. It tells me it is the latest driver but its still not solved the problem.
    Has this happened to anyone else? Is there another driver I could try or perhaps a program that is causing it?
    I would really appreciate your help on this as its driving me crazy being unable to listen to any form of music without having it cut out every 10 seconds...

    Hi guys - thanks for your help and I sincerely apologise for the delay in my response!
    Truthfully, I was so busy when I wrote this I forgot that it happened and all this time later I was googling solutions tot he problem again and came across this post - I thought "Wow this guy is having the EXACT same problem as me!" - Then I saw my name next to it.
    Ok, responses:
    Silas - The problem has happened since day 1. I tried to reinstall the value added package but no change.
    MasterG - I have not muddled with my system and it has always happened so I think its a software/hardware fault... The sound works perfect through headphones though...
    Neion - Sorry to hear that bud!
    PauPau - Sound driver update doesnt work, headphone did work, usage of different players has no effect and havent tried system recovery as yet as it has always happened...
    Still searching for an answer and, again, I apologise for not getting back to you sooner when you were trying to help me!
    Thanks Guys,
    Luke

  • My MacBook Pro keyboard not working correctly after Win7 bootcamp installation. In OSx boot it keep Win keyboard. How can I have Mac keyboard in OS boot and Win keyboard in Win boot?

    My MacBook Pro keyboard not working correctly after Win7 bootcamp installation.
    Installation went well but when I boot either with OSx or Win it always keeps Windows keyboard.
    How can I have Mac keyboard in OS boot and Win keyboard in Win boot?

    Hi - I have the exact same model as your MacBook and had a few questions as mine is acting up. I upgraded the ram to 8gb (2x 4GB ram) and ever since then my computer has not been running as smoothly and the start up time is horrendous. Have you encountered this problem? And if so how did you fix? What would you advise me do?
    I was thinking of reverting back to the original factory 4GB then rebooting the entire computer. Any suggestions?
    Thanks in advance!

  • Satellite Pro C650 - arrow, slash, and z keys are not working

    Can any one help - my slash keys, arrow keys, z and question marks have stopped working.
    I have seen several other posts on various forums for exactly the same combination of keys.
    I have a Satellite Pro C650.

    Sounds like a keyboard malfunction.
    Can you use the external USB keyboard properly?
    If you did not notice the same problems using external keyboard, then I would recommend replacing the internal keyboard.

  • Satellite Pro C650 - motherboard is dead

    Hi
    1st post but here goes.
    Owned Satellite Pro C650 for a year now and a wek ago just started smoking then went off.
    I checked with my warranty & ran out on Sep 30.
    Now my problem is i cannot seem to find info on the mobo that is inside.
    I have not open or anything but where you put RAM chips you can see clearly a little square chip burnt.
    So i would like to ask is this a common fault.
    Also the model number of mobo so maybe i could get a replacement.
    Think thats all
    thanks for any replies

    Hi
    > I checked with my warranty & ran out on Sep 30.
    This is really a bad luck Its pity that your warranty ran out just before the motherboard died.
    It sounds like an overheating issue
    What to say in your case the motherboard needs to be replaced and a new part could be ordered from Toshiba ASP in your country.
    But new motherboard is expensiveits one of the expensive notebook parts beside the notebooks display so not sure if its worth to replace the mobo in your case
    However, you can ask the ASP technician for a opinion maybe you could get an second hand part

  • Satellite Pro C650 - HDD issue - need new one

    Satellite Pro C650 Model Number: PSC09A-01V021
    Smart Disk reports a unspecified HDD problem & recommends backup (done) & HDD replacement.
    It runs so slow it is unusable. Warranty has expired so I wish to replace the HDD myself.
    The faulty drive is a Toshiba 320gig MK3265gsxn.
    I'm looking at a 500G WD 16M 7200RPM SATA 2.5Inch Scorpio WD5000BPKX as replacement/upgrade.
    I assume the new drive will be detected/setup by BIOS but I don't know if the recovery disks will work with this Western Dig, larger & faster drive. Can anyone advise please?
    Recovery Disk questions.
    When I made the recovery disks using Toshiba Recovery Media Creator the program suggested marking the first few disks as Recovery Disk 1, 2 & so on. I assume these disks are my user data backup. Yes/No?
    The last disk made was called Windows Recovery Environment-64bit. This is the factory default backup & is to be installed first?
    Will it transfer the Recovery Partition & install Windows on the new disk?
    Thanks,
    GJL.

    Now when you need to exchange HDD I recommend you to exchange it with SSD. It costs a bit more but believe me notebooks performance will be much better. Ive made the same and Im so happy.
    Notebook starts faster and operate much better.
    Recovery image disc is back-up of original recovery image and it has nothing to do with your personal settings.
    When you install it notebook will have factory settings again and it will be identical situation when you have started your notebook for the first time.
    In my opinion there should not be any problem to use created discs with new HDD. Generally speaking there is no some limitation and you can use different HDDs.
    Anyway, think about SSD.

  • External USB Hub limit for Satellite Pro C650

    Is there a limit to how many external usb ports you can connect through the Satellite Pro C650?
    Wtih the four port hub I have, the ports seem to work individually and all devices work normally when plugged directly into the lap top, but when all devices are plugged into the hub and lap top combined, there are errors coming up.
    Thanks,
    Karyn

    Well, I think this should not be a problem if the single USB hubs provide own power.
    The point is that the single USB port provides common 500mA and if more devices would share the power from one USB port then it could be possible that the available 500mA would not be enough for all USB devices.

  • Satellite Pro A200 - Supervisor Password Utility Setup fails

    Hello,
    I own a Satellite Pro A200-PSAE7E and a retail license for Windows Vista Ultimate 32bit (with SP1) installed on it.
    Before installing Vista, I upgraded the BIOS to the most recent version available on the Toshiba site (http://it.computers.toshiba-europe.com/cgi-bin/ToshibaCSG/vista_drivers.jsp?service=IT).
    BIOS version is now 2.20-WIN32
    After the successful installation of the operating system, I started installing the various drivers and utilities downloading them from the Toshiba site.
    When I try to install the "Supervisor Password Utility" the setup fails showing a message box which says "The serial number is invalid".
    Same problem with another setup: "Flash Cards Support Utility"
    Does anybody know how to solve this problem and which serial number is invalid?
    Thanx in advance,
    mme000

    Hi,
    You are having the same trouble as other people on these forums.
    If you want to fix it yourself, you would need to look at the disk image on the disk that came with your toshiba, figure out which version of the application was included on that, you might be able to find that version on the website for a different model and different country (for instance, on the canadian website, for a totally different computer than my UK computer, i found a version of the flashcards support utility that works with mine.) But i don't think its possible to see what's on the restore disk without instaling it, i.e. wiping everything off your harddrive in the process.
    It really is extremely disappointing and frustrating. If anyone knows a way to communicate directly with toshiba about this problem without having to pay some sort of support fee, I would be very interested to hear about it. It seems noone from toshiba actually reads anything from these forum. It seems like a real wasted resource to me....

  • Satellite Pro 6100, WXP installing SP2, after stand-by mode the USB is unknown

    after installing the update SP2 for Win XP on my notebook Toshiba Sat. Pro 6100, the following happens:
    when the notebook awakes from the stand-by mode, the USB connector is unknown and the communication is lost.
    Who knows the answer for this problem?

    Hello Erjee,
    you just need to install the bios version 1.90 or later.

  • Re: Satellite Pro A200 - Screen goes black after BIOS screen

    Hi,
    I'm new to the forum and have quite a big problem. So any help is welcome and appreciated.
    My Satellite Pro A200 goes black after the BIOS screen and a black screen with a blinking cursor. Also just before the screen goes black a bleep can be heard which shows windows is booting.
    I can access the toshiba set-up screen but not the safety mode set-up.
    Kind Regards

    Hello
    You wrote that you can access the BIOS but have you checked if the HDD is recognized properly? Maybe the computer cannot boot because HDD isnt recognized so you should check this.
    If the HDD is recognized I would try a recovery installation from Toshiba recovery disk. It seems that Windows isnt able to start and if you reinstall the whole system it should help to get rid of this. Just go in boot menu and select CD/DVD drive as boot device.
    Check this!!!

  • Satellite Pro L300 will not boot after Bios update

    Help please.
    I have just formated a Satellite Pro L300 laptop.
    I used all the updated drivers from Toshiba and all went very well.
    I then updated the bios with the latest version.
    After doing this the laptop will not boot but just keeps scrolling through the start menu and no matter what option I choose it just keeps doing the same thing.

    Hi
    I used the Microsoft installation disk but just keep getting to the same stage until the blue screen appears. I have tried different installation disks and also changed the hard drives as well. I can do everything in bios, change boot device enable or disable devices but that is it. I have tried a few times to instal windows but it just stops at the same point saying windows is stopping instal to protect the system. I fear the bios update has done some permanent damage as I cant get past the dreaded blue screen.Thanks anyway

  • Satellite Pro C650: Questions regarding Recovery disk installation

    Hi
    can someone please give me a little bit of help?
    I am having to buy and install a recovery disk for my Sat Pro C650.
    When I get it do i just plug in and play it. I have also lost windows 7 which was pre-installed, or would I then need to also buy a new copy of windows 7 and install that too?
    Will it then just go back to how it was when we brought it.
    Or do I need to do something else after the recovery disk is installed.
    Thanks
    Tina

    Hi Tina and welcome to our Toshiba community.
    Here is my comment to your posting:
    Every new Toshiba notebook is delivered with original preinstalled operating system and saved recovery image on HDD. There are two possibilities for OS installation:
    -usage of HDD recovery installation and
    -usage of recovery DVD that must be created by notebook owner.
    Toshiba recommends creation of DVD disc. Why? If something goes wrong with HDD (defective) you can built-in new HDD and use recovery disc to have factory settings again. So please, if possible, create this recovery disc as soon as possible.
    Back to your questions:
    > When I get it do I just plug in and play it. I have also lost windows 7 which was pre-installed, or would I then need to also buy a new copy of windows 7 and install that too?
    Usage of DVD is simply:
    Start your notebook and press F12 to enter boot options menu
    Put recovery DVD into optical disc drive
    Choose CD/DVD device on the menu and press ENTER
    Follow what happen on the screen
    > Will it then just go back to how it was when we brought it.
    Yes.
    > Or do I need to do something else after the recovery disk is installed.
    No. Everything will be installed automatically.
    If you have more questions you are welcome.
