Need drivers?

Always get your drivers and specific software from the manufacturer of your Laptop, Notebook or Desktop. They are usually free of charge.

If you were to log on to the www.toshiba.com web site, usually one is able to download if available, by model number, All available Driver downloads as required.

If the driver is not available, perhaps your manufacturer does not support the OS you are installing.

This is the best way of ensuring up to date drivers for your system and they are free of charge!

I hope this helps.

needs new power cable, or even worse, internal power supply.

it comes with 2 hard drives fitted as standard - you can replace them but you cannot add a third.

Seems a problem with RAM. Remove your RAM from the slot and start the PC, long beep sounds are audible, then the RAM is OK, else time to buy a new RAM/ memory.
Else Try for the Hard Disk, Check the Hard disk in your's friend's PC, remove his Hard disk and insert yours, if the same problem arises, change the Hard Disk or if nothing happens, system boots,
it seems a problem with motherboard, Get it repaired by a expert or buy a new one.this will work.
Enjoy !!! Thank you for using Fixya !!!

Base from the description of your problem this can be a loose connection on your keyboard, what you can do here if the laptop is already out of warranty dismantling the laptop to check the inside will be a good thing to do.

This site will give you some steps that you need in cheeking the inside of your laptop, but if your laptop is still under warranty I suggest you use that warranty to have it repair.
