SOURCE: Locked cursor on Toshiba Satellite using Windows Vista

you need to press f8 on boot when it is loading, to enter safe mode (before the Windows flash screen)

then when in "Safe mode" you can  should be able to gain access,

reboot from this mode and see if it loads normally,  if not then you have a configuration issue.

go back into safe mode, (login) and go to start>Run,  run a program called MSconfig,  this will allow you to look at your startup items,  and allow you to disable/enable them individually,

from this point you can diagnose which programs are causing your issues.

I hope this helps

If it is completely frozen press and hold the power button (you will lose any unsaved work) it should turn off, failing that remove the power source.

Hi,

Usually on the toshiba it is Fn and F2 or F4 the f key will have a coloured picture of an antenna with waves coming off of it.

Also most toshiba laptops have a physical switch on the edge of the case below the keyboard. Make sure that switch is on first then try the Fn and function key combo as they work together like a two way light switch. Both must be on for the card to be active.

SOURCE: Sometimes, when I am typing on my Toshiba laptop, the red functions of the keys start working and I don't know what I hit to make it happen. How do I change the functions back to the regular ones

You have activated the number lock on your laptop to unlock press the "fn" function key and 'NumLk" key that should get it back to normal
