Button "Broken" of any software problem

Hi people,
I recently double started Linux Mint on my IdeaPad U300s and I had problems with my keyboard, 't' key in paricular. When I press 't' he thinks im pressing tab and its VERY annoying, same juice to write this message.
Then... I have a few questions.

1. do you think that it is a hardware problem? (It happened on Linux Mint AND Windows)
2. can I replace the key - how? This will help?
3. can/how can I 'do' the tab key - act as a ' t "(sous windows/linux) - so tab will not work properly and the 't' key will!"

Any help would be appreciated!
(If you're wondering, I just copy and paste ' t is around to write this.)

Hey, it's a known issue for users of linux U300s. See this bug report to find many people with the same problem.

https://bugs.Launchpad.NET/Ubuntu/+source/Linux/+bug/974455

You can temporarily solve the problem completely discharge the battery, or by opening the cover of the ultrabook and take out the battery. This will reset the configuration of the keyboard and your t key will work again, as expected.

The worst thing about this problem is that Lenovo and major linux distributions are aware of the issue (I have personally informed them), and no one solves it. Lenovo says that their BIOS team will attempt to resolve the problem and Canonical says they are working to certify hardware Lenovo on Ubuntu Linux, but the reality is that we are a lot of people who bought an expensive and useless thing that only works under Windows, the Lenovo Ideapad U300s.

  • Dimension E520 - button Dell speakers volume control problems

    I have a Dell Dimension E520 with XP. The speakers supplied with desktop has a control volume on one of the speakers and I used to be able to adjust the volume with the key, but lately, it does not work. I can't that turn on or turn off with the button on the slide, but impossible to adjust the volume. I have to use one of the volume control of windows to do this, and it's very annoying. Anyone has any ideas. Thanks in advance.

    Hi Mr. PL.

    It is a mechanical problem with the speaker volume button. This has nothing to do with your computer or any software. The volume control button can not be replaced. You can consider buying a new set of speakers for yourself.

    Answer please if you have any questions.

  • Cannot install the driver HP Photosmart C6180 and software problems-, yet get HP-related crashes

    I had a lot of crashes with my main PC, a number related to HP, including at startup ("your computer has recovered from a serious problem") and close (the HP software responds only to not close).  I reformatted the system, reloaded Win XP Pro disk and all updates.  I couldn't reinstall the HP drivers and other software from my CD or after you download from the HP site.  The stalls of process at an early stage (only in step 2), sometimes blocks your PC when it does.

    The last time, I filled the experience HP online questionnaire and noted that I thought I had a generic problem rather than related to HP.  However, checking details on the Microsoft error report, I discovered that after the start I regularly get the message:

    HP Installer Recovery plug has encountered a problem and needs to close

    Error signature

    AppName: hpzrcv01.exe AppVer: 7.0.0.71 ModName: msvcrt.dll

    ModVer: 7.0.2600.5512 Offset: 00036fa3

    Download of HP is about 76 Mb.  I have on my C drive (System) of a program file HP/Temp with 7 Mb and on the E partition where I wanted to install the drivers and other software a program file HP / Digital Imaging, 30 MB.  Both are dated yesterday, when I finally tried to install from a download.  The HP printer is not displayed under the control panel of configuration/printers, or the Add Printer Wizard can recognize it on the network.  (I have not tried to disconnect the router and connect directly to the PC, but that shouldn't matter to software problems, should it?)

    Any advice would be welcome.

    Thank you once again, Dexter - it was a Microsoft problem rather than a problem of HP, I finally found and installed the right fix MS and just installed the HP software - to be on the safe side, I only did the essentials of basic printing and left the other stuff for later.  And I'll report this "resolved" if I can find the button after validation!

  • Software problem or SIM card reader?

    Hello

    My brother just bought a new iPhone SE. Like his old iPhone 4 was unnecessary, he gave it to me.

    He has deleted all the data, so it was a whole new iPhone 4 running under 7.1.2

    Unfortunately, that he used a nano SIM with an adapter and when he took the set, things were not going smoothly and he shot it too strong, maybe because the tray was blocked...

    in any case when I turned on the phone with my SIM card (same provider that he bought the phone of) it keeps saying "no sim". I was unable to activate the phone.

    I launched iTunes, plugged the iPhone: 'no SIM '.

    I tried my SIM own brother who worked before the reset (and also before this 'incident' tray) and it was exactly the same situation.

    Then I also tried DFU restore the phone with iTunes, but it was useless.

    So I'm pretty sure that the SIM card reader has been damaged. But I still hope that this situation might be link to a software problem.

    How can I be sure that the phone detects no SIM card. (I won't call an emergency...)

    Thank you very much! It would have been my first smartphone

    Sounds like a problem of material for me. I doubt it's worth the money to get that repaired, although the phone.

  • Computer block, the cursor moves, El Capitan software problem?

    Hello

    I had a problem with a computer that I just bought. It looks and works very well, but occasionally it freezes and only the cursor can still be moved. The only way to turn it off is to unplug the power supply cord through. If I restart it, it works fine, until it happens again (three times in a period of about six hours today). I went to the Apple store and they tested all and any equipment checked OK. I had just erased the disc and then reinstalled El Capitan, but it happened even before I did. There is no other software on the disk, only El Capitan. The computer has a unique key of 4 GB, and I was wondering if maybe that could be the reason, that it should simply have more RAM and two identical sticks together?

    The last time I was on the Apple store, there is no newspaper on the computer because I had erased the disc, but now it should be, so I guess I'll be back to see if they can find anything.  During this time, is that what someone had this problem? The 'genius' last time said he believed it was probably a software problem, in which case it will take El Capitan, or at least of Safari, which is what I used whenever this happens. When I erased the disc, I deleted the version back from the drive, do not know if the top would have been better, or if it could make a difference. In addition, it often happened when I was on a site as a banking site, that may take more effort to load.

    Specifications are: iMac, G3 mid-2010, processor, 4 GB of memory (single stick of Crucial), El Capitan running.

  • Is there a way to recover the deleted files without using any software?

    Is there a way to recover the deleted files without using any software?

    Is there a way to recover the deleted files without using any software?

    # Software is necessary.

    First check the recylcl tray. If she isn't here, read the following:

    "Deleting" a file does not delete actually it brand just space be used. There are third-party programs that can sometimes recover deleted files. The problem is that the space used by the file is likely to be replaced very quickly, and this makes the unrecoverable file.

    So your chances of successfully recover this file are decent, if you try it again immediately after deleting it and quickly down. If you have used the computer since then (for example to read this answer and write that question), your chances may be very weak now.

    But if the file is large enough, it's still worth a try. Stop using the computer in question immediately, if you haven't done so already. Download an undelete program (in here is one: http://www3.telus.net/mikebike/RESTORATION.html but there are many other choice; do a search) on a friend's computer and bring it to you on a diskette, CD, or drive to the thumb.

    If that fails, your only recourse is to bring or send the drive to a professional file recovery company. This kind of service is very expensive and may or may not work in your case.

    From your description, it seems you want to know how to disable the use of USB devices to a computer using any software. If not what I understood, please let us know and explain your problem in detail.

    In some versions of Windows 7, we have a feature called Group Policy Editor. This feature could be used to configure various Windows system components, including the deactivation of USB devices. But support for the Group Policy Editor will be the best in the Windows 7 IT Pro TechNet forums.

    Hi kuentin,.

    Welcome to the Microsoft Answers site!

    (1) - what do you mean you have only 1 user account?

    When you set up Windows, you will need to create a user account. This account is an administrator account to allow you to set up your computer and install any programs that you want to use. And that's why the user account you are using is the administrator account.

    There is no way that you can create an administrator account, or by using a Standard account.

    (2) are you having issues during installation of the software or opening it?

    (3) what exactly happens when you try to open the software application?

    (4) should be codes error or error messages, if any?

    (5) what software are you trying to install or open?
