  Original title: keyboard/Windows problem

  Hi there I met a strange problem that just happened, don't forget that I did not add that shortcuts to my keyboard just randomly happened.

  So when I press the LEFT CTRL key a far left, it opens a new window Chrome and in search spam 000 bar if you keep holding it, it will continue to open several windows and keep doing this.

  Any idea? Thank you

  PS Also scanned for Malware nothing shown!

  Hello

  1. What is the brand and model of the keyboard?

  2. you did any software or hardware changes to the computer before the show?

  Analysis of computer malware in order to solve the problem has been a very good start to get the problem resolved. I really appreciate your technical expertise.

  Instead of using the physical keyboard to type and enter data, you can use the on-screen keyboard. On-screen keyboard displays a Visual keyboard with all the standard keys. You can select keys using the mouse or another pointing device, or you can use a unique key or a group of keys to scroll through the keys on the screen.

• T410 CTRL key does not work after update BIOS to 1.45 (German keyboard)

  Dear community,

  I updated the BIOS of my TP T410 (2522), German keyboard, to 1.45. After the update, both CTRL keys don't work anymore. Ditto for the AltGr key. When I switch to CTRL FN in the FN key BIOS - as supposed - works like the CTRL key. But when I turn off again the FN returns to his good funtion and CTRL does not work.

  When I connect an external keyboard via USB it works perfectly.

  Any suggestions how get the CTRL key works again?

  Best regards, Simon

  Hello

  turns out be a hardware fault. Swapped keyboard and it works again.

• Satellite L555-11U, CTRL key does not work.

  Welcome,
  I bought this laptop about 2 weeks ago.
  Since Monday, both the CTRL key are as "disabled" but I'm sure, that they are not damaged.
  Because:
  When I press on (left and right) CTRL + v, this spell: vr. Or c: C3

  Then I discovered while playing Call of Duty, Modern Warfare 2:
  If I use the wheel size the Volume, the function of CTRL has been set for her.
  This means: in Cod MW2 I use CTRL to crouchinng... now, if I use the wheel I Crouch. Even in other games.

  I did my best to write in English: D
  Thanks for the help,

  Hello

  Very strange, I think that the buttons are not damage, but I think there could be a problem with the keyboard.

  But just a question; have you tried to reinstall the operating system and to check if the button works again? You use the latest version of the BIOS?
  Please check everything first.

  If the buttons do not work even the installation of new OS and new BIOS then it s a hardware problem and the keyboard should be replaced

  I think this shouldn't be a problem given that the guarantee is valid and everything should be done for free.

• My shift key does not work on my MacBook Pro

  My shift key does not work on my MacBook Pro. Can I use capital letters but only if I click on change and it's annoying. When I click on the passage icon shift comes at the top right of my screen to show its on but when I click on the lock button nothing happens as it used to glow green when I clicked it. Before someone says go to the system preferences and go to the modifier keys and restore them or make sure caps lock shift is on lock shift, I've tried that already, I looked it upward and found nothing similar. Help ASAP would be appreciated because it is really annoying

  Hello Gracepullan1,

  I understand that shift key of your MacBook Pro does not respond as before. Fortunately the steps below can help to restore the functionality of the SHIFT key on your Mac.

  1. In the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
  2. On the view menu, choose the speech.
  3. Click on the text to Speech tab.
  4. If "Text Speak selected when you press the button" is enabled, the key or combination of keys set to read the text cannot be used for other purposes, or used for typing text - click on set the key and replace it with a less commonly used key combination (try using the modifier such as SHIFT keys, command) Option and control). Or disable the option "Read the selected text when the key is pressed".
  5. Click the accessibility pane or universal access in system preferences, and then click the keyboard tab.
  6. Make sure the slow keys is off. With slow keys on, you must press a key for a longer period of time so he can be recognized.
  7. In the accessibility pane or universal access, click the mouse and make sure mouse keys is turned off. With the active mouse buttons, you cannot use the numeric keypad to enter numbers - instead the keypad moves the pointer (cursor). (There is an option to activate the MouseKeys to five presses down option, you can disable this option to avoid accidentally activate it.) If the mouse keys is enabled and you are using a keyboard without the numeric keypad or Num Lock function, see Impossible to type while mouse keys is enabled in Mac OS X.
  8. If the function keys on the top row of the keyboard do not work as expected, see Mac OS x: how to change the behavior of the function keys.
  9. If the problem persists, use the keyboard Viewer to help isolate the problem:
     1. Click the component language & text (Mac OS X v10.6) or international (Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier) in system preferences.
     2. Click on the tab Input Sources (or tab Menu entry under Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier version).
     3. Click on the keyboard and the characters 'On' box Viewer checkbox to select (click on the viewer of keyboard "On" checkbox under Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier).
     4. In the entry menu (flag), choose Show Keyboard Viewer.

  
  

• If the keyboard is connected and detected by OS X, the keys you type will highlight in the keyboard Viewer window. Open TextEdit (or any text application) and try to type something using the keys that failed before to see if they highlight in the keyboard Viewer.
• Start up from the Mac OS X installation disc, choose Terminal from the utilities menu and test buttons that did not previously.  If the keys work while started from the install disc, the keyboard works correctly.  How to solve a problem of software allows to isolate the software problem that may be causing the keys to not answer.

  Quit Safari, Chrome to quit smoking. If necessary Forcequit.

• CTRL keys do not work on Portege R500

  Both CTRL keys do not work on my Portege (Vista Biz) 500.

  I guess this isn't a hardware problem. Because that both keys are not recognized even though I hardly use the CTRL button on the right.

  I don't know if it is caused by a program (newly installed). I've just updated BIOS 1.6 without effect.

  I also tried to boot the system with Linux on a USB key. Also, the keys do not work on Linux.

  Does anyone have experience with this problem?
  Can I remove the keyboard driver and reinstall it? Could someone explain the procedure?

  Thank you for all the advice

  > laptop does not respond to the Ctrl + alt + delete even before starting an OS (for example, while being in its menu of BIOS).
  The keys Ctrl + alt + delete key combination can be used ONLY in Windows OS
  It will work not in the BIOS or Windows boot has not been done!

  Finally, you must make sure that your laptop uses the latest version of the BIOS.
  If a newer BIOS is available that be updated!

  If this does not help, retrieve the device using Toshiba drive!
  If the key still won't work, then you should get in touch with an ASP in your country.

• Satellite P200D-139 - left CTRL key does not

  Hello. I recently bought a new P200D-139 and have found that the left CTRL button does not work. For example, if I try to copy using CTRL + C, it does not. It is the way in which the keyboard is configured with these laptops or is it a problem of possible hardware/software?

  All the tips are greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

  I have the same laptop and CTRL + C works on the first day. The laptop with muss factory settings allow you to use this key combination.
  It works with the right CTRL key?

• Numeric keypad and function keys do not work as expected.

  Keypad does not work as expected. By pressing 0 on the numeric keypad displays a "right click" menu, and the NUMLOCK is on. All other elements of the keypad work as expected.

  Function keys do not act as expected in MS Excel 2010 (e.g., F2 changes the brightness compared to modify a cell).
  With the help of Samsung model NP350VC-A01CA with Windows 8 and Office 2010.
  What I did to try to resolve:
  (1) disabled options control access Panel\Ease of Access\Ease Center\Make the keyboard easier to use (all of the checkboxes are turned off). and
  (2) uninstalled and reinstalled the keyboard driver; and
  (3) update regedit - Computer\HKEY_USERS\. Default\Control Panel\Keyboard\InitialKeyboardIndicators 2
  When the computer "wakes up" or after a reboot, it resets...

  Ask Samsung?   Sounds like a BIOS option.   Otherwise use the Fn key as needed.

• CTRL + c does not work in ff 25

  CTRL + c does not work in 25 FF in normal mode or in safe mode.
  I use win 8.1

  Hello

  I have not heard of 25 FF origin of this particular problem, but I've heard other programs such as ZoneAlarm and QTranslate causing the problem on specific versions of Firefox.

  For example these two previous requests for support: here and here.

  The best way to test it is probably for a boot Windows safe with networking. Then see if you have the same problem in Firefox. If the problem does not appear Windows safe mode, then you can be sure that another application (security software most likely) is at the origin of the problem.

  If the issue still seems Windows safe mode then I suggest to try a restart of Firefox:

  Firefox - modules to reset and refresh settings

  This will return the default settings for Firefox. Your bookmarks and history will be saved, but you will need to reinstall your add-ons.

  Hello

  I think that your keyboard is faulty.
  Connect an external USB keyboard and check if both CTRL would work.
  If both work correctly using the external keyboard, then your internal keyboard should be replaced to solve this problem.
