Dell Inspiron 15 keyboard problems

I have problems when I type.  When I type an internet address, sometimes the internet window just closes.  Especially, when I type in Word, the monitor will zoom in, or my paragraph - re will justify the, if I hit shift + s it brings up a window of styles. How to disable this option?  I disabled all the sticky keys.

Hi gregorykids,

1. When did you start to question?
2. you remember to make changes to the computer before this problem?

Step 1:
First check if the FN key is enabled. If so, then try to switch it off.

Step 2:
You can also try to check the keyboard on the screen and if the problem persists.
Check out the link:

    Same problem, I got Windows 8 '64-bit' o/s,.
    solution is to use the Bluetooth driver ("R235168")

    Steps to follow:

    ----------
    (1) go to the URL http://dell.to/S3vwvD the 'R235168' download) Bluetooth Driver and remove it.

    (2) open the folder after that extraction is complete.

    3) navigate to the folder until the folder as \r235168\r235168, for me the path is C:\dell\drivers\R235168\R235168.

    (4) open the folder (Win 32 or Win 64) depending on your configuration of file system of windows, for me, Win 64.

    (5) open the file 'Inst.exe', a full install with the wizard.

  • Dell Inspiron N5110 touchpad problem when loading

    I have been using my dell inspiron for about a year and a half and it worked fine. But one day, I plugged my charger to charge laptop and the mouse goes Mad... He puts back and forth on its own without me touching it.i google the problem but not found any useful material. I installed the ALPS driver and the only help I get is that I turn my touchpad when supported and use a usb mouse instead.

  • Dell Inspiron 3537, few problems

    Hello.

    I have an old Dell Inspiron 3537 of a few weeks. Was first Win8, but I have the update Win8.1.

    After that I signed up for laptop computer, the next step was to my C: partition on both sides of the partition, partition C (OS) and D (Data). After that, I installed successfully all the programs I need. And after a few days problems began with a few BSoD. There are few problems and I'll explain all of them.

    My Dell checkup "troubleshooting blue screen" reports every day one or more BSoD with explanation:
    "The unknown hit-and-run driver (C:Windows/system32/drivers/atikmdag.sys) seems to have caused a system crash. Perform the tasks below to help prevent unexpected stops in the future".

    On the same health check of my Dell, I try to run "PC Checkup", and everything seems OK, no reported problem. A personalized analysis on a single card, ATI (ATI Radeon HD8850) video and the result is 'passed '.
    I run also build in DELL diagnostics (boot menu) and there were no errors, and also Dell diagnostics online and everything was fine.

    I try to install the new driver from DELL (AMD Radeon HD 8850 M pilot 13.151.0.0) website, but during the installation screen blinked several times and then went away. I think it's OK because the video driver installed. I left phone for an hour to "complete installation", but noting happened. I turned off laptop by pressing ON / OFF button for 5 seconds, but after this laptop won't restart. Here, I noticed another problem that I will share with you in the moment. Fortunately, I have installed Acronis True Image 2014 so I was able to restore a system. BTW, same version of the driver is already installed according to the "MSINFO32).

    Now, my system works, I still see the BSoD warning in my Dell Checkup, but actually I don't really see this BSoD. Strange.
    If I click with the right button on the desktop and then click on "Property Graphics" or "Configure switchable graphics", I get this warning:

    Second problem. My laptop during "BLACKOUT" explained beforehand, I tried to use Windows Recovery. I tried "Refresh" and "Resettlement" and both times I got the message:

    "Could not find the recovery environment. "Insert the recovery media or your Windows installation and restart your PC with the media.

    If I try to use "Backup and recovery of Dell", I received the message:

    "Dell backup / restore could not detect the Partition Recovery on this computer." It may be missing or damaged. To recover your computer to the original factory condition and restore the recovery partition, please use your system recovery disk"etc. etc...

    I don't have any coz discs that OS was preinstaled. So, basically I can't use all the facilities to recover my laptop because I have no media or recovery factory recovery disc. Fortunately, I'm using Acronis, but it's not a point. I want something to recover my original system, factory condition.

    In fact, Windows catering facilities are OK and I can restore to a point, I created.

    BTW, my hard drive is partitioned on 7 partitions. Initially, there were 6 partitions with immense C: partition. I shared this one on two.

    And also, since this BSoD is probably caused by the video driver, how can I safely to update this driver. As explained previously, I had after the first test disaster. Can I try to install the new driver for AMD Radeon HD 8850 M from the ATI site?

    Sorry for the question so long. If you have additional questions, I'll be more than happy to answer.

    I hope that I will get answers, thanks in advance!

  • Dell Inspiron 1525 webcam problem.

    I use a Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop since 2008 and now the webcam is not working. I noticed that when I turned on the laptop, I get a flashlight blue color on the left side of the webcam, but now I do not understand that the blinking light. I installed the drivers from the dell support center webcam, but still it does not work. I bought this from a GCC country & now I'm in Sri Lanka, so I'm in two minds whether to get this repaired here or no reasoning that I don't know somewhere appropriate here. It'll be a big help, if I get a solution for this online.

  • Mouse Wireless Dell Inspiron 2320 & keyboard unresponsive

    So today, I discovered that the mouse and keyboard no longer work with the all-in-one device, I.  I replaced the batteries and also hooked to a keyboard and a wired mouse.  If I launch the Dell and press F2 or F12 I can use the wireless keyboard, but once the system is in place at the main screen I can not connect using keystrokes or mouse.  Can someone please respond and tell me what I should do next.  I checked the forum, but did nothing found and went to the support site and found nothing more.  I need to get the device upwards, but not sure where to go next.

    Thanks in advance for support or a response to this post.

    Are the totally separate keyboard and mouse or do they share a single or shared USB connection?  Have you tried one or several different USB 2 ports?

    Was this an upgrade from a previous version of Windows or a clean install of win 10 (what version)?

    Try this for starters:

    1. Turn off and unplug the cable from the PC, not just the wall
    2. Disconnect all external devices, including the mouse and the keyboard, including wireless dongle, if used
    3. Power button press / hold for about 30 seconds
    4. Reconnect the only USB mouse and keyboard (try wireless, if who preferred)
    5. Reconnect the power cord to PC
    6. Reset

  • Dell Inspiron 531 s problem of power/does not recognize the hard drive

    My Office does not illuminate. I replaced the power supply. No, it powers on but does not recognize the hard drive. It gives an error as SATA 0 None SATA 1 no SATA 2 No. How do we know that the cables are properly connected. I feel like I'm very close to solving the problem but don't have a clue what that next step to follow

    The original PSU had 4 sets of cables and connectors.  The new power supply has 5 sets of son.

    aries7531

    From your post, I guess that the configuration of the system now recognizes the hard drive?

    If you do not have a floppy drive, then BIOS can find the player who isn't there, it returns this error.

    Make sure that the floppy drive [drive A] is disabled in the [BIOS] installation system, page 173, so that it is no longer looking for the disc and see if this stops the error message.

    If the hard drive is recognized in the configuration of the system, he now knows in windows "My computer" or in "disk management, [right click on 'My computer' and select 'Manage', then disk management]."

  • Dell Inspiron 9400 display problem

    Hi all

    Last Tuesday, on the left side of the screen, a vertical black stripe about one and a half inches wide is appeared, the next day, that he had changed to a thin black vertical line has appeared in the middle of the screen.

    I did the full diagnostic tests and they all came "passed."

    This line has no effect on the functioning of the laptop but I fear that it may get worse.

    I tried everywhere for a solution without success.

    The screen must be replaced.

    I have a brand new Ultrabook Dell Ispiron 14z.  I keep having problems with Wi - Fi connectivity.  I can use the Ethernet connection very well, but when I try to connect to the Wi - Fi I'm getting no access or limited connectivity.  I have other devices and laptops that work very well on the same Wi - Fi networks.

    I bought the laptop series Inspiron 5000 14 at costco, a week ago. I have problems to major wifi adapter, which if you look at the thread on the community support forums, seems to be a design flaw with the location of the wifi radio models in this (and a few other Inspiron).

    See: http://en.community.dell.com/support-forums/network-internet-wireless/f/3324/t/19589278

    This is a showstopper for me and I'll return the laptop to Costco as soon as POSSIBLE. I'm looking at a similar replacement machine (non-Dell) and found a decent deal at Best Buy for a Toshiba Satellite 14 '' touchscreen with similar specs as the Dell.

    http://www.BestBuy.com/site/Toshiba-Satellite-14-touch-screen-laptop-Intel-Core-i5-6GB-memory-750gb-hard-drive-satin-gold/6128128.p?ID=1219191185727&skuId=6128128&St=i5&CP=1&LP=3

    I hope this helps others who are considering this phone or who bought this laptop to understand the issues with the Intel Dual Wireless 3160 adapter. This is not an incident isolated - just do a search on google for 'wifi dell inspiron 5000 14 problems' and there are many stories of customers with similar problems.

    Shame on you Dell to put out such a piece under the normal material. I'm not impressed.
