I have a Toshiba laptop running Windows Tablet version. I have notice that in a few games, particularly older ones (Age of Mythology, Microsoft's Freelancer), in which there is a 3d game with 2d interface, the interface and a lot of key information required to play is unable to display over the 3d. Only sometimes will it actually pop up and then it goes away. I know the computer is capable of displaying the 2d components because they flicker, but the 3d always draws over the top (I think). Is this a graphics card problem or software related, drivers, directx, etc? Thanks for any response

I couldn?t find a Satellite Pro A 100 series but I did find drivers for the Satellite A100 series. At any rate click on the link, supply the appropriate information and if there are vista drivers for your laptop they?ll be here. Good luck. http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_sc_modSel.jsp

Sounds like something's not making contact properly. I don't think you're going to have much success getting that key to work, at least on a permanent basis.
If your computer is under warranty, this merits a replacement keyboard. If it's not under warranty, replacement keyboards can be found online from parts providers or on eBay. Just make sure to get the right one for your model. You can usually install them yourself quite easily (typically three or four screws, five minutes or less). If you don't feel comfortable doing it yourself, it's a very basic repair and if a service provider sounds like he wants to charge you too much, he probably is. Keyboards run in the $30-70 range depending on your model, and I wouldn't pay too much more than $30 to have it installed. Forget places like the Geek Squad; a local shop can probably do it cheaper. I'd say altogether you're looking at $50-100 installed.
And as for your other question... I work servicing computers, and Toshiba machines are by far the worst products I've encountered. I don't recommend them to anyone. I haven't had much luck with other Toshiba electronics, but then again I haven't used them extensively either.
Hope this helps.

I opened up the laptop to look for any damage to the motherboard and see whether the video part could be replaced. No luck. Ended up replacing the laptop through ebay, not too expensive these days.

Go to your friend. Download and burn this cd http://www.9down.com/Hiren-s-BootCD-9-8-Keyboard-Patch-73110/
Boot your pc from it and use BIOS / CMOS Tools from it.
After that use the patch

I would look on ebay for a smashed one first.
or one with a malfunctioning screen. When I did an e-bay search for your model It came back with 509 results. The bottom link is a repair specialist for that kind of notebook.
