Satellite X200 20G - Fn keys pop-up screen doesn't appear anymore

Good morning, I hope you could help me on the following:
I have just noticed that when I place the cursor at the top of the screen, the pop-up screen with the functions keys no longer appears...
What did I do??? I don't think I have made any change to the settings.... I have installed the Vista SP1 but I couldn't tell you if the problem has just followed this installation (sorry). I usually don't use this functionality, I would even say that usually it annoys me a lot, but now that it doesn't work anymore, I miss it and I would say I discover a lot a usefulness to this feature...
How to get it back? That is the question.
I have looked in the Toshiba screens, I found Toshiba "Accessibility", but when I hit this icon I get a 'Toshiba Accessibility Error" pop-up screen telling: "This system can not use "Toshiba Accessibility" ".
Could you please advice?
Thank you
Guy

Hello *marina4000* , first of all thank you very much for coming into my post.
Second, I really think you have identified the area where the problem is.... I would have never looked into the "flashcards" area as to me this was related to memory cards...
You were right, I found in the Toshiba folder, Utilities, the Flashcards related topics. I hit "Restart Flash Cards" and the bar at the top of the screen appeared again, GREAT!....
But, as unfortunately there is a "but", the bar didn't appear at the next boot. I went back to the menu and found a line called "Settings for Flash Cards". It opened me a window where I found a box called "Disable all functions keys" but it was unchecked. I then checked this box, hit OK, then again uncheck it and clicked OK and the bar appeared, but again, at the next boot, it was not present...
It looks as if this is the right direction to dig into, but there is still something to fix so the bar is loaded at boot time.
I am hectic to read your next post!
(thank you again)
Guy

  • Satellite X200 20G - Fn pop-up screen doesn't appear anymore

    Hello there,
    (I made a post on this subject yesterday evening but I cannot find it anywhere.... sorry if both appear later)
    I would need your help as the pop-up screen with the Function keys doesn't appear anymore when I place the cursor on the top of my screen....
    I don't think I have changed any settings. I have installed the SP1 for Vista but I cannot tell if this is linked.
    I found Toshiba "Accessibility", but when I click on the accessibility icon, I get a Toshiba Accessibility Error screen telling "This system, can not use Toshiba Accessibility" ...
    Could you please advise?

    HI!
    I Have a X200-212 running Vista w/out SP1.
    When I was upgrading drivers(after i buy it) i somehow lost the FN function and the popup toolbar. That happened after i installed or update(dont remenber) the toshiba bluetooth stack.
    I unisntalled the toshiba bluetooth stack and installed the windows vista bluetooth support as an alternative, and the FN thingy started to work again.
    But in your case im guessing its something related to the sp1 ?:| ,lets see if Toshiba updates the X200 drivers to support the Vista SP1.
    Cheers

  • Installing a second operating system (Windows XP) on a Satellite X200 20G

    Hello everybody, I would need your help on the following:
    I know lot of posts describe parts of what to do (I spent sometimes on then), but I would like to limit at maximum the risks so I am looking for the most simple and exhaustive guideline for this change.
    Why XP? Just because I run lot of astronomy hardware and software,and, well, Vista is not ready yet...
    I am happy with Vista for other uses so I will keep it, install XP on the second hard drive and make a dual boot.
    First fear: will I have all the appropriate drivers to jump?
    I run a Satellite X200 20G PSPB9E-02G021FR and I have found on the Toshiba support site "some" drivers for XP, but it looks as if the display (at least) is missing...
    ==> 1) could you pls give me a link to a page which lists all the drivers for my specific system?
    ==> 2) could you pls point me to a post which describes the steps to follow?
    ==> 3) it looks as if nLite is the right choice to make the XP installation CD, but I assume I could not just launch it under Vista and capture my drivers for XP, is this right?
    Thank you very much for your help

    > The XP BIOS for the X200-G20 was not released. I didn??t find any XP BIOS for this notebook series on the Toshiba European driver page.
    > Please note that you can use only the BIOS which were designed especially for this notebook series!!!
    Well, excuse me *Gipsyman* I surely don't want to be a pest, but the need to install XP on the Toshba X200 20G (for example) is not a dream, it is a hard reality and in Europe I know tens of people (if not much many) who had to do so because their preloaded Vista was not at all answering their needs, and there was no longer Toshiba laptops available preloaded with XP.
    I am member of a forum which is dedicated to the Toshiba X200, I can tell you that we love our Toshiba and are very happy ( /proud ?) of it and I am not sure how many have kept the original platform, but definitely it's very few.
    By the way, Toshiba releases 32 drivers for XP in his European download page, so this does not happen by chance.
    In fact lots of people are wondering for the BIOS compatibility under XP, so my purpose, asking this question earlier in this post, and trying to make our position clear in this one, is to make the part between what is the theory: e.g. "The Toshiba X200 is preloaded with Vista, all changes to XP is under customer responsibility and at his own risks" (let me smile a bit here as Thoshiba still kindly provides XP drivers....) and the reality: e.g. "hei guys!, be careful, if you update your BIOS while you are running XP, you take the risk to break something".... see what I mean?
    I hope this clarifies what I (my European friends and I) need to know: what is the real risk of making BIOS updates while our laptops are running XP because we had to.
    Pls, again, don't see anything aggressive in my lines (I really appreciate your help), just a willingness to make things clear.

  • Satellite X200-20G: Question about BIOS 2.20

    Hello,
    Could you please bring me some lights on the warning which introduces the BIOS 2.20 upgrade:
    *!!!* Upgrade the BIOS from Windows XP BIOS V5.10 only to VISTA BIOS V2.20 or higher *!!!*
    Mainly I am interested in understanding what is the relationship with XP.
    I have a Satellite X200-20G with the first hard drive loaded with Vista (default configuration) and a XP Home edition on the second Hard drive and I use the BIOS menu to boot on one side or the other.
    Thank you
    Guy.

    Hi
    On some notebooks the BIOS must be updated to the XP version if the Win XP OS was installed.
    The warning message says that if you have already updated the BIOS to XP version 5.10 then you could update it again only to the BIOS 2.20 Vista version.
    But it looks like the XP BIOS version for Sat X200 doesnt exist at this time and in my opinion you could overlook this ;)
    Best regards

    Yes, a wireless keyboard will work with the iPad, but you'll need the iPad to work so you can set it up.
    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased.

  • Satellite X200-22U - FN key driver for Windows 7?

    Hi all!
    I use a Satellite X200-22U notebook, and I want to install Windows 7 32bit on it.
    The problem is, that my FN key functions don't work.
    They worked fine with the factory installed Vista, but the multimedia keys were dead.
    Now, under Win7 my multimedia keys are working fine, but the FN key functions are dead.
    I installed almost all the drivers (Value Added Package, Controls, Flashcard, Assist, Chipset, Bluetooth, etc.) but some of them is available only for Win XP, some others only for Vista, there is no Win7 support. Despite this (as I see) my only problem is the FN key support. I want to switch the displays, set the brightness, mute the speakers, so it's problem.
    My tfncky.exe doesn't run under Win7 and I got a message about it after startup.
    Is there any newer version available for Win7, or can I use the driver(s) of an other notebook?
    Could you help me?
    Thanks,
    McLawrence

    Hi mate
    Ive got a older notebook and the Win 7 drivers were not released for my series.
    I downloaded simply the Value Added Package and Flash Card Support Utility from the Toshiba European driver page: chosen the tools which were released for Satellite L500 series.
    I installed first VAP and after new reboot I followed with Flash Card installation.
    After second reboot I tested the Fn buttons and could get this functionality and the control bar appeared at the top of the display.
    You could also check if you could restart the Flash Card in All Programs > Toshiba -> FlashCard restart

  • Pop-up screen does not appear for inspection point- In-process inspection

    Hi,
    We havs set up inspection points( time-based) in the master recipe. In that inspection point , we have defined date,time and inspector name as 3 fields to be maintained , before the results recording can start for each characteristic.
    Even though the inepction point is assigned in the header QM data of recipe , system does not give the pop-up at all to record the date , time and inspector's name.
    Please let me know what settings might be missing to get this pop-up screen to record the inspection date,time and inspector's name.
    Regards,
    Manohar

    The Sampling procedure with free inspection points radio button is chosen. However, we are not getting the pop-up screen of QE11.
    What we are trying to get in QA32 , is when we click on "results recording" push button , we want to get QE11 screen to pop-up so that the inspector's name and date and time are recorded , before the results recording screen comes.
    Please suggest whether this is a personal setting or master data setting or config setting or some exit to be used.
    Regards,
    Manohar

  • Pop Up Menu Doesn't Appear

    Hi, I put together a navbar in Fireworks and added a 6 item
    vertical pop up menu to one of the buttons. I used the advice from
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/fireworks/articles/fw8_popups.html
    I did it once and it worked fine, then had to redo it in
    Fireworks and re-exported it to DW based on the instructions above.
    Now the pop up menu won't appear when I preview the revised webpage
    that includes the new navbar. When I preview the navbar in
    Fireworks or DW everything's fine so I seem to have built it
    correctly in FW. The problem seems to just be when I add it into
    the webpage in DW. I'm using Insert > Image Objects >
    Fireworks HTML and select the htm file that was created by the
    export but it won't work!! I get the proper rollovers for all the
    buttons but not for the one with the pop up and no pop ups at all.
    Also, when I insert it into the webpage in DW design view I get the
    buttons randomly separated by spaces across the cell (but the
    positioning is fine when previewed) and all of the pop up submenu
    items appear below it as name anchors.
    Anyone have any tips?

    Show us your page. My article just didn't go far enough to
    warn people not
    to use these menus....

  • The initial white screen doesn`t appear, but the computer starts normally.

    Hi, I'm worried about something. I have a MacBookPro 15 ", and since yesterday when I turn it on, the initial white screen, with the loading bar, doesn`t appear. At first everything is black and then the computer turns on normally.` That is not normal, can anyone help me?

    Yes, I normally get this white screen when I turn the machine on. Whithout seen nothing behind it. But now is not appearing anymore. I turn it on > everything goes black (should be white with the apple and the loading bar) > then the screen of the user and password to access the computer appears normally.
    What can this be? I searched in the internet, and found nothing. I`m hoping to find the solution here.

  • Satellite X200-25I (keyboard) key

    My "End" key has fallen off my keyboard. Does anyone know the part number and/or where to get hold of a spare key? I've had a look on ebay, but there's no x200 keys, but similar looking ones.

    I know of such a website which sells individual laptop keys and trust me you dont have to buy a new keyboard for just a single key. They sell genuine keys with their retainer plastic pieces for just $5. Check out
    Browse through your brand name, model number and order your required key. Its that simple.
    The best part is, you can repair your broken keys yourself by watching the video tutorials on the website.
    Hope this helps!

  • Function key drop-down doesn't appear anymore

    Hi there
    When i press the Fn Key the computer no longer displays the drop down menu that it used to. The function key still works but I can no longer see what function i have selected.
    How can I resolve this??

    Hi
    The Flash Card Support Utility controls this FN button and the menu on the screen so you should check if Flash Card restart would help you to sort out this issue.
    If not, try to reinstall the VAP (value added package) and the Flash Card Utility (if available for download)

  • Satellite A300 - Function taskbar doesn't appear anymore on Windows 7

    I have problem with FN button. It was worked when the operating system was vista, but after I upgrade my operating system to Windows 7 the function task bar that should appear at the top of screen when I press FN bottom does`t appear!
    So, can you tell me how I can solve this problem, please?
    My Laptop mode is Satellite A300-29N

  • Why does my key pad vanishes or doesn't appear at all when I try to upload a comment?

    I usually upload my comments to some websites. Especlly hpathy.com but whenever I try that with my Android, using Firefox the key pad disappears suddenly and refuse to cooperate again. Why is this so? Please can't you fix the problem?

    Many site issues can be caused by corrupt cookies or cache. In order to try to fix these problems, the first step is to clear both cookies and the cache.
    The Firefox cache temporarily stores images, scripts, and other parts of websites while you are browsing. <br>
    Note: ''This will temporarily log you out of all sites you're logged in to.''
    To clear cache and cookies, do the following:
    #Tap the menu icon located at the top right corner. This is the icon with 3 bars. On older Android devices you'll have to press the hardware menu key and then tap More.
    #Tap '''Settings'''.
    #After that, you will be taken to the settings screen. In the settings screen, look under the section '''''Privacy & Security''''' and select '''Clear private data'''.
    #You will then be taken to a list of what can be cleared. Select the following 2 for deletion:
    #*Cookies & active logins
    #*Cache
    #After those have been selected, tap the '''Clear data''' button to actually clear the cache and cookies.
