[F2] does not work when I reboot Dell XPS 8500 (or when I turn it on)

I am trying to boot from the Blu - ray player, so that I can use a disk of Norton Bootable Recovery Tool, I created on a laptop computer with exactly the same OS under my desk, Windows 8.1. When I boot, I support several times on F2, but the PC will boot Windows. I upgraded the system BIOS of A11 to A12, but I still can't get the computer to recognize F2.

My keyboard is one privateer something or another, connected to the PC via a USB cable (not wireless). I have run the Dell SupportAssist program and everything works well subjected to the extended system test. My antivirus/firewall, Norton Security with Backup program, has found some malware, but not recently. The computer crashes and I get the error messages "'SMTrayNotify.exe' file seems to be corrupted." y "Runtime error 216 at 048383A 6. I believe that SM is iolo System Mechanic. I had to uninstall it completely and reinstall in downloading from the iolo website. I did, but I still get the same message. I googled Runtime error 216 and Microsoft Support alleged that this problem can occur if your computer is infected with a virus Trojan SubSeven. I'm afraid that the reason why I can't get F2 to work is due to malware. But I can do something wrong.

I read somewhere that the keyboard can be the source of the problem and it was. I finally got my hands on a keyboard Dell and the F2 and F12 function now. I created and used a Norton Bootable Recovery Tool, but it found nothing. Finally uninstalled iolo.

If F2 and F12 don't work, try a different keyboard. I'm glad I did.

  • Satellite A660 - Webcam does not work when using Skype

    I recently bought a Satellite A660-15J. I am running Windows 7 64 bit.

    I have the latest version of Skype (5.3.0.111).

    The integrated Webcam does not work when you run Skype. If I run the Toshiba Web Camera Application the webcam works fine. However, when I test it in Skype, I get a message saying "cannot start video. Try quitting other programs that use the webcam '.

    However, as far as I can tell there no other programs available. I have tried Skype with the Web Camera Application clised & open. I also confirmed that I do run the latest version of the program.

    One of the main reasons we have this laptop is to use Skype video... Help, please.

    Disable webcam application start-up and exit this application before you start Skype.

    I used Skype many different models of laptops, including friends A660 and it worked correctly.

    When you open Skype video settings is listed as default camera USB webcam?

  • Event does not work when I have my variable of variable mutual FUND!

    Hello

    I programmed a labview vi to add a field to a list view when a Boolean variable value is changed. I used a case Event (value change event) structure to determine if a variable value is changed, it works when I force the Boolean control with my mouse click, but it does not work when the value of the variable is modified by the mutual FUND. What should I use instead?

    Value change events are based on the interaction of the user (or the same ejection programmatically based on the value property node (signaling).)  It is not based on a control change via a regular, variable property node local, terminal or any other connecito0n programmatic or binding.

    You must simply query the variable and determine when it changes.  In this case, you can then use the node value property (signs) in the case of event fire.

    You have a laptop. So try the right button on your touchpad. It work?
    If so, the only remaining possibilities are:
    1. bad mouse. Get a new one.
    2. defective UBS port. Plug the mouse into a different port. See if the right click of the mouse works this time.
