  This is the mouse cursor has recently started to jump and clicking randomly. I searched the internet and this Council extensively, and then I find a lot of those who suffer from this problem, I can't find a coherent solution.

  • This happens regardless of the mouse I use.
    • It happens with No mouse and no keyboard.
  • He can't start, but starts happening after 5 minutes and gradually gets worse.
    • Think this is heat, I installed TGPro to monitor the temperature; nothing seems to be very hot.
  • I have reset NVRAM and SMC.

  Are there other causes/solutions possible for this behavior? It makes the computer completely unusable, of course.

• Satellite L555-11 q - crazy keyboard

  Hello

  I have the following problem:

  After a while my keyboard won't any more correctly. The keyboard forget the letter or written twice and three times over.
  If I bring the laptop and the battery to take and then reintroduced, so everything is. After an uncertain time, the error reappears.

  Hello

  It would interesting to know, if you notice the same behavior on an external keyboard. You should test this in order to determine if it s a hardware or software problem!

  I put t know what operating system you have, but in the control panel, you can also change some keyboard settings.
  Also, try to remove the keyboard from the Device Manager, and then restart the computer. After that the keyboard will be recognized again.

• Weird keyboard behavior

  Hi, don't know how describe this model is a desktop i5, bought this week.

  The original keyboard was driving me crazy, as if switching to Windows 8 was not bad enough... She seemed fragile and often gave spelling mistakes. I can't use my old one that this computer does not have a keyboard port (why not? I mean seriously, how many pennies that save?)

  A constant irritation with the HP keyboard was that it kept spoil the quotes, especially the right one, so I managed to dig up an old USB keyboard...

  Exactly the same problem? It is therefore not the material.

  So let me descrobe the problem...  I Supoose to put the problem of Word in quotation marks, like this "problem"...

  What tends to happen is the first, usually, on the leftm works ", but the right hand, we're not" Although there... Mmm.  Most of the time that nothing happens, so I carefully press shift and the key... still nothing, drank when I hit space it then shows TWO of them. The result tends to look like this:

  ««Problem "»

  That IS something serious, because I'm a writer by trade. That's what I do. I can't continue to try to work around or fix this error.

  I checked languages, she has US International and the plain I removed the international.

  What is a familiar thing? An ' idea' "what is the cause?

  ??

  I replaced the HP keyboard with a new one and the problem has not occurred since.

• Crazy keyboard

  When I type the letter she is that the same thing that hit enter.  When I hit the Enter key on the keyboard it puts the letter a on what you type.  When I type the z button it beeps inside the computer.  This happened after my
  girl has struck many buttons at the same time.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

• A80 - 131... incredible keyboard lag after reinstall

  Hello

  I'm tring to complete a reinstallation of all ' on a Toshiba A80-131. The computer was delivered in Spanish, but the owner wants everything in English. So I installed Windows XP sp1 and all the drivers I could find on the toshiba site. I find myself with 1 unidentified PCI device and this crazy keyboard lag. By way of illustration, it took me about 4 minutes to type the text in this post so far. I type and then sit back and watch the characters appear at a pace slightly less than 1 per second
  I managed to install updates including SP2. I put in S & D Spybot and Adaware, and they are both pleased. Everything works fine, but not the keyboard (and then there's the mystery of PCI). It feels like there is a buffer which is strangled somewhere...
  Don't tell me is a PCI keyboard ;·)

  Pointers? Even google could not help.

  Hello

  You can also find the instructions for installation of the Driver download site. Follow this order, and perhaps the PCI mystery will be gone this way.

  But on the keyboard I have no idea, sorry.

• Re: Satellite Pro C660-1UX keyboard became mad

  Got a Toshiba Satellite Pro C660-1UX with a crazy keyboard.
  It all started yesterday.

  Pressing a few keys I get nothing, some bad letters and when I press a ' get the date and time is displayed.
  Have updated the BIOS, no change. Connect a USB keyboard, everything works fine.

  A new keyboard will fix things?
  I see they are £20 on eBay.

  Thanks for the help.

  Yes, this means that the keyboard controller is OK and the internal keyboard needs to be replaced.

• Equim A210 - keyboard does not properly

  Had major problems with laptop, so made a complete rebbot with repair disc, but now laptop keyboard is not working well.
  If I type the letter O I get LO, and if I type the letter L get OL, the letter that e is just as does the enter key, and if I push on I I KI.

  I read on the functions of key etc. the FN and must admit that I messed around with the FN + several other combinations, and you ask if I have incorrectly configured settings now or could it be something more sinister?

  I have mcafee, who detected no spyware or virus, and the system has been reset to factory conditions and everything else works as per normal?
  Any ideas anyone?

  Hello

  I doubt that it could be a matter of bad adjustment.
  If you would something on the keyboard which should not be enabled then you get another sign but not double letter?  :|

  I think it s a keyboard issue possibly something wrong with hardware

  Could check you if the same phenomenon occurs by using different applications; Word, Wordpad, Editor, etc.
  If the same keyboard behavior would persist with different software, then this would be related to hardware (keyboard problem).

• Satellite M40X - keyboard unresponsive

  Hello
  My laptop keyboard is not responding. I can not connect, if I set the restore disc and press on 'C' by following the instructions it happens with the Bios setup and I can't navigate through the options with the arrow keys. On the login at startup screen I can right click on the password box and it displays Unincode options that None are checked? and ideas please!

  Hello

  I guess you want to boot from the disk?
  By pressing the "F2" immediately after the laptop from you should be able to get into the BIOS!
  There you should be able to change the boot order.

  But if you crazy keyboard running, I recommend to connect an external one and test it.
  But I think that if keyboard problem and you won't be able to use it if you need to replace the keyboard internal.

  On my Tecra friends the cursor jumped around and he wasn't able to use the keyboard.
  The end of the story, that he replaced the keyboards and everything was ok.

• Satellite A500 / big problem with keyboard

  Hello everyone, first sorry for my English, I'm French!

  Anyway, since 2 days now my Satellite A500 has a big keyboard problem and I don't know how to fix it. I used it as usually, just cleaned each week arriving at work with a simple cloth and after starting my computer, when I started typing, I realized that the keyboard has disappeared as a "madman".

  Some keys are reversed, others like the space bar just doesn't work anymore, capslock button now unlock with the key has and another example, when I press D writes 'CD' and other stuff like that. It is simply impossible to type correctly. I'm running on Windows 7, I have the first test to look for any kinf of viruses, vain, so I formatted my hard drive, reinstalled Windows 7, then after I did the update to the Bios and now everything is clear and clean, but the keyboard problem is still there.

  The fact is that I have this laptop since August 2009 and my warranty no longer applies, so before I should send my computer to any computer repair store I want to know if it's really a problem of keyboard/equipment which can be fixed, "softwarely" or if there is always some kind of alternative for me.

  Thanks to all for your future responses.

  Hello

  Crazy keyboard?
  Hmm. Don t think that it s software or related bios looks more keyboard problem.
  You can try to plug an external USB keyboard to check if the problem would be also available
  If it s not available using the external USB keyboard, then it s internal problem of keyboard and the part needs to be replaced.

  Keyboard replacement is not difficult. The keyboard is secured by two or three screws that are hidden under the cover of thin plastic above the F1 - F12 buttons.
  Remove the plastic cover, remove the screws, lift the keyboard, disconnect the cable (notice, two tiny locks on the connector needs to be moved).
  Then, you would be able to remove the cable of the flat keyboard which is connected to the mobo.

  But if you have no experience, then you this replacement must be done by laptop computer technician.

• Keyboard not repeat when key held down.

  How can I get my wireless keyboard to repeat the letters when the hold key for example 1000000000000000000000.

  Seems to be a common fault from what I've read.

  Best regards, John

  Hi John,.

  not a fault, for Apple, it is a feature of easy support use of accented characters and your keyboard behavior depends on the application using your.

  More information is here:

  How to type accents and symbols emoji on your Mac - Apple Support

  In particular the section "repeat a character" describes what is boring to you, I think. But it's exactly like it is described there. For example in text editor you don't tap and hold the letter 'a' for abdelkrim repeated... but in the Terminal, it'll work.

  I agree that the copy of the key to the clibboard and using command-V to repeatingly insert is not a very satisfactory solution. More like a workaround solution.

  Best regards, Lars

• HP 17-w005na OMEN: keys stick on laptop Omen

  Hi, I noticed that my new laptop key HP Omen stick on games, which means for example in doom when move my character will continue in this direction when I release the keys.  I thought it was the game itself, but it has now happened in several games such as Doom, Doom 3 and Ark.  This happens not all the time.  Looking around this seems to be a recurring problem with HP laptops.  Is there a fix because it restores a portable game useless if your in middle of a game and your WSAD keys suddenly go haywire.  I really hope that it is a software problem that can be fixed.  Help.

  Hello

  The only option I see and that may be worth trying is to make sure that you are running the latest version of the bios ( F.09 Rev.A ) that she mentions "Improved offer keyboard behavior matches are played on the system."

  http://FTP.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp76501-77000/sp76810.CVA

  You can check the version of the current bios of notebooks by holding down the fn key and pressing esc.

  If you are running a previous revision, F.09 Rev.A can be found on the following link.

  http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp76501-77000/sp76810.exe

  If you are already using this bios, or it is not correct the problem, my best advice would be to contact HP in this regard when the machine is still under warranty.

  If you live in the United Kingdom, contact HP here.

  If you are in another part of the world, begin here.

  Kind regards
