Locked keyboard on toshiba l350-171 laptop

Do a System Restore again but pick a restore point (date) before the troubles began.

is the laptop booting fine if yes ,then it can be the problem with the keyboard try to remove the keyboard and clean it then fix it but do this when the laptop is off also remove the battery while doing it if the problem persist the contact service centre

Probably a bad keyboard. Most likely the period "." doesn't work either.

Hi there. This is not forced to work but you can give it a try. Perform a forced shutdown on the laptop by holding down the on/off button until it shuts down, then take the battery out and the AC power for 10 minutes, put it all back together and try again. Please let me know how you get on. Good luck

Hook up an external usb keyboard.

If that works then go into the device manager and remove both the keyboard and mouse.

You might want to try a bios / firmware upgrade too. If that doesn't work then it's probably a hardware issue. It's a pretty common problem with many of the Toshiba laptops.

How about replacing the keyboard? Perhaps, something was spilled on the keyboard in the past.

Hi! It appears that possibly your hrad drive isn't set properly in the caddy? with the laptop powered down and disconnected locate the hard drive cover pop out the two locating screws and carefully move the caddy/hard drive BEWARE as the drive has fragile pins at the opposite end where you opened, hopefully little sliding pressure should remove. Check the retaining screws around the caddy (You'll need a small torx/philips screw driver for this) if all tight replace gently.
If you are uncertain I would recommend a technician check it for you.
Good Luck!

My Toshiba Satellite A45 S120 keyboard has a problem, some of the keys are not working. When you type it does noting. Sometimes when you start the computer, it continuously types the letter eeeeeeee. You can hit some keys randomly and this will stop, but if you start a program (eg. ms word) the same thing happens.

Hi, sounds like a loose component inside your computer. Probably not worth looking at yourself if it's in warranty, get it sent back to Toshiba.

press and hold fn and press f11.it sounds like you activated the sticky keys
