Satellite L650: Some combinations with the FN button do not work on W7x64
Posted: 17-Jan-2011 11:26
 
Hello,

System

Satellite L650-1KU

Part number

PSK1LE-01700MRU

I have install Windows by myself - this laptop haven't any OS from factory.
Installed Windows 7 x64, all drivers and utilites from Toshiba driver site for windows 7 x64 accessible for my laptop model.

I have no any unknown devices in Windows Device manager, all drivers installed and all hardware components woks fine i.e. wifi or bluetooth or web camera.
But I still can't use some of keyboard combinations with Fn button. Not all, just five combinations do not work: Fn+F2 power modes, Fn+F4 hibernate, Fn+1,2 zoom and Fn+F8 wirelles devices.
From search I have found only mentions about Fn+1,2 zoom - this funtion provide some util named Toshiba Zoom but on download page no any Toshiba Zoom for my laptop model and W7.

Looks like there must be installed some additional utils from vendor for handling this combinations but I cant find any additional info or soft on driver download page.
May be there are some utils what shold be located in lists of drivers/soft for 32 bit windows and it will be fine for 64 bit one?

All combinations which works fine like volume +- Fn+3 Fn+4 or mute Fn+ESC does not shows any popus at moment of pressing, just perform its function without any indication.

Dear users and support, can you help me what I should install from additional utils to provide support for combinations Fn+F2 power modes, Fn+F4 hibernate Fn+1,2 zoom and Fn+F8 wirelles devices?

Have you installed the Toshiba Value Added Package?

Have a look on the Toshiba support/downloads website. Ensure you install the Win7 64bit version of TVAP designed for the L650 series.

Updating the BIOS may also help.

Akuma is right. For FN keys functionality you must install Toshiba Value Added Package. This package contains several different applications.
