Ergonomic 4000 keyboard: replace circuits possible film?

Greetings-

This is my first time on the forum posting. If all goes well, it is as useful as the forum of Lenovo ;-)

Has anyone replaced the signs of circuits in plastic for a MS 4000 ergonomic keyboard? I have the vertical line at the Center (/ 2) is no longer functions, complains not that this keyboard has seen use since long everyday for over 5 years now, but because of this I just want to fix IT with a replacement circuit, and not replace a workaholic otherwise totally functional keyboard.

Thanks in advance for any help on this.

Best, Hugh

I found this, which seems to be much easier to use than what I've used in the past (small bottle and a toothpick):

Almost everyone I wanted grown repairs with the help of the self-adhesive copper traces, more for the use of PCBS hard, I think.

  • Microsoft Natural ergonomic 4000 keyboard don't work via KVM / port replicator

    All the drivers for the keyboard are loaded on the PC (Win7).

    What gives?  Any ideas?  I don't want to trash, but will be in the blink of an eye (more will probably say something not nice about material that is not work and play well with-the others on a review).

  • Natural ergonomic 4000 keyboard worn

    I have 2 of them, both purchased at Staples last year.  No, I don't have the Bill.  We're still new in the box.  My wife used his for several months.  The keys are dispelled.  I read here and all over the internet, it's very common.  Apparently, Microsoft's answer to this is to 'buy stickers to put on the buttons '.   This is a totally unacceptable solution.  I am currently using a Microsoft Natural MultiMedia Keyboard, which is light gray or white with black letters on the keys.  I used it everyday for years, and there is no wear at all on the keys.  New keyboards are black with white lettering.  They are the model number 1048, manufactured in China.  Serial numbers:
    7687603673143 and
    7687603378803
    Because it is clearly a quality production editing, specifically the choice of the ink used, Microsoft going to do to fix this?  Although one of them is still new in the box, my wife wants connect me it for her because she is worn out.  Clearly he too will have been key in a few months, and then I'll have two keyboards bad, news and a former, which seems fine.  Also, I bought the original Microsoft Natural Keyboard when they came first for years.  It's on a shelf in the basement.  No wear on its buttons or the other.  I replaced it only because the most recent have a smaller footprint, and the plastic had yellowed.
    Thank you.

  • Paved digital Sculpt Microsoft ergonomic Wireless Keyboard For Business stopped type numbers

    I use a Sculpt Microsoft ergonomic Wireless Keyboard For Business for 7 months, and last week it stopped being able to enter numbers from the numeric keypad. It works fine when I have num lock off, but when it is turned on, keys other that NUMLOCK, calc, draw back, clear and enter the work stoppage.  Before my last reboot, 5 and more keys on the keyboard acted as key popup when caps lock was on.

    I replaced the battery in the keypad, rebooted the machine, moved the USB receiver to a different path and checked the batteries in the keyboard.  I have the latest version of the software Center installed keyboard and mouse.  Nothing new has recently installed through Windows Update except for the virus definitions.

  • HP ProBook s 4540: HP ProBook s 4540 - keyboard replacement - advise

    Have a 4540 s HP from my neighbor who dumped some broth on the keyboard.  The P and O do not work, the K - L -:- and space sometimes work, are sometimes stuck in down position.  At this stage, it is virtually unusable.

    The serial number is 2CE338382Z and the Code of Prod C9K7OUT #ABA.  The insignia claims that it sports an Intel's I3.

    So, I see videos here describing how to remove and replace the keyboard.  It does not seem too complicated for me - I'm ready to take the plunge.  If someone has done this before, you have some tips on where are the land mines?  Or is it pretty much direct?

    And where exactly I think the correct keyboard replacement part?  What I have to disassemble the unit first and look at a part No. on the entire keyboard?  Can't seem to locate the function parts here.  Can someone link me please?

    Thank you all.

    Can someone let me know what the procedure for a keyboard replacement for a laptop Satellite Pro A120 of out-of-warranty in the United Kingdom.

    Thank you

    Well, you can order the compatible keyboard of the ASP in your country.

    The addresses and telephone numbers, which you can find here:

    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com-> support download &-> find an authorized service provider

    You can also ask ASP for keyboard replacement.
    But it s a pity that your warranty is invalid. :( So you will have to pay for the replacement.

    In any case, the replacement of keyboard is not very delicate, and if you have a bit of experience then you can replace this keyboard by yourself.
    To remove the keyboard, follow these steps:

    1. turn the computer.
    2. open the screen and make it flat.
    3 insert the tip of your finger into the slot on each side and remove the door-keyboard. It is a small plastic above the F1 - F12 buttons cover.
    4. remove the 2 screws flat head, securing the keyboard.
    5. lift the upper part of the keyboard while freeing up the hook and lower the face of keyboard on the palm rest.
    6. remove a screw support plate and the keyboard.
    7 disconnect the cable from the keyboard connector on the system board and remove the keyboard.

    But note; Be always careful and don't use force to remove all the parts.

  • dedicated on microsoft 4000 keyboard back button does not work with firefox

    Hello-

    I have a microsoft 4000 keyboard.

    He dedicated the buttons back and next to the navigation of the browser: http://xahlee.info/kbd/ms_keyboard/i/ms_n4000_keyboard_LED.jpg

    the back button does not work with firefox

    other info: the next button does not work with firefox. buttons next and previous works with IE, tor and chrome. the keyboard shortcut for back in firefox (alt + left arrow) does not work.

    I've tried clearing cache and cookies and start firefox in safe mode.

    advice?

    Hello

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand you have questions only by using the back button in the Firefox browser.

    But I would like more information on this topic in order to help you.

    (1) the back button worked before with Firefox?

    (2) don't you make changes before this problem?

    According to your description, there is no problem with the material since it works with Internet Explorer and Google Chrome. Previous key does not only work with Firefox. Therefore, I would advice you to check with Firefox and see if that helps, because they have more expertise on products here to help you better.

  • Microsoft Natural Keyboard 4000 keyboard shortcuts accidentally mapped on arrow keys and ordinary letter

    My natural 4000 keyboard started acting yesterday: C key starts my web browser, the left arrow button toggles the current window and exit mode full-screen, the down arrow key opens the console of "developer tools" on my browser (both for Chrome as Firefox), and the right arrow key opens the context menu for the active window (i.e. the window that opens when I right click on the window). These all correspond to the functions in the shortcut bar upper keyboard of my keyboard, which still works as usual.

    I don't know how it happened - running Win7 Pro 64-bit and the problem occurred after that I have spammed the letter keys while running an emulator (Mednafen - http://mednafen.sourceforge.net/) to find out how to open a menu.

    I managed to turn off most of my shortcut keys, after that some of the problems have been resolved (for example, I disabled the Web/Home hot key and now my C key opens is no longer the web browser either), but I can't to remap the arrow keys, which makes the text written in a quite heavy browser (I now use the mouse instead of the arrows).

    More information on my system: I use a Logitech Anywhere MX mouse with Logitech Unifying receiver plugged on one of the USB ports on my PC.

    I tried to uninstall my device keyboard drivers reinstall and uninstall my mouse device drivers and restart my PC with the system detached Logitech receiver. Had no effect.

    Any advice as to how I might solve this problem? I'm a bit puzzled and considering retirement finally my Natural Keyboard keyboard (although I'd rather sad having to do) if I can't find a solution.

    Hi, Ahmed.

    This problem may occur if there is a problem with the USB connection on your computer. This problem can also occur if a third-party keyboard control utility is running on your computer. This problem occurs because the analysis codes issued by the keyboard are interpreted differently by each keyboard control utility. It can also be due to having default unexpected or redefined for keys program assignments. Many of the default assignments require that you have installed a program in particular, or you are using an e-mail program supported, Internet browser or media player.

    You can consult the following Microsoft articles and check if it helps.

  • receiver wireless ergonomic 7000 keyboard

    Anyone know if the keyboard7000 natural wireless must have the small receiver?  I picked up 2 keyboards at a sale of surplus, one I think is the model 7000, the other is not.  I also picked up two receivers office.  The other (also an ergonomic natural) keyboard connects to one of the receivers office, but the 7000 does not connect to one or the other.

    From what I see, the native 7000 with the small USB receiver, not the largest receiving office like the ones I have.

    The receiver made a difference?
    I have two receivers are:
    Microsoft Wireless Optical Desktop Receiver 2. 0 and the other is
    Microsoft Wireless Desktop receiver 3.1.

    Of course, it could be a problem with the keyboard, it is a second-hand, but I was wondering if it could be a problem of not having the correct receiver.

    Thanks for any help.
