• Problem with keyboard with T410

  Hello

  For your information:

  for the last 4 months, I have a T410. The laptop came with pre-installed win7. Currently it runs also Debian Squeeze in dual boot.

  The problem:

  In the last few days I have a behavior strange experierenced of the keyboard integrated. The c and e keys d seem to trigger the bad events. e a for example increases the volume, mute d. First of all, the problem is sporadic, so I even if it is caused by dirt or something similar, but currently it is not possible to work on the laptop without an external keyboard (which works fine). I think a bad configuration of the keyboard layout can be deleted, because the behavior is on both systems. Maybe some else has experienced this problem and can help me? I need the laptop for my studies - thus given to maintanance is the worst solution.

  With greetings from the Germany

• Problem with keyboard: some keys return two, not one, characters

  I have a MacBook Air 11 '' mid-2012 128 GB SSD model running OS X Yosemite 10.10.5 and my keyboard has developed a strange problem occultation key repeat.  Whenever you press the "3" button, the system generates thus simultaneously a '3' and '6 '.  This motif is repeated this diagonal of the keyboard down, i.e.

  '3' generates a '3' and '6 '.

  'e' generates an 'e' and a 'y '.

  "d" generates a "d" and an "h".

  'c' generates a 'c' and a "n".

  The reverse is also true, that is, a '6' generates a '3' and so on.  Curiously, the sign '=' generates a character "§" as well, a special character generated by keeping down option and pressing "6".

  (This combo generates a ' § ' and a ' £', hidden under the '3'.)

  The same problem occurs when you use the Shift or Control keys as modifiers.

  I can work around the problem by using either a connection wireless Bluetooth or wired USB keyboard (like using the "Keyboard Viewer" option under "System Preferences"), but that kind of defeats the point of having a laptop as a MacBook Air, Yes?  The problem is intermittent, but becomes very annoying.  (Try to type a password with such a mess!) It sounds like a mechanical problem requiring a possible replacement of the sale wholesale (and), but I hope someone out there can have a software or another solution.  Thank you!

  That certainly points to make it a hardware problem.  It is difficult to imagine a software problem that would not affect both internal and external keyboards.

• Problem with keyboard on the Satellite Pro C660

  Hi all

  I am completely confused because my keyboard has gone haywire and am pretty annoyed, that I can't fix it

  Am running windows 7 on toshiba satellite laptop computer pro and I was wondering if this is a software or hardware problem.

  Here's what happens:

  -Caps lock light stays no more but it flashes when I press it. It always works well
  -Left SHIFT key still works, but when I press on it... it is also creates this symbol ~ at the same time within UK keyboard. If I change U.S. keyboard then it enters the vertical BAR.
  -The ~ key above the tab key doesn't do what ¬
  - And that the key to the pipe that is above the input Tape button this: #7

  I updated the BIOS earlier today, but nothing helps...

  Does anyone have an idea on how I can fix this as its quite frustrating! Thanks for all the ideas.

  see you soon

  Keyboard is controlled by a Microsoft driver that is part of the Window System.
  So the story is pretty simple either your internal keyboard has failed or the keyboard on the motherboard controller does not work.

  How do I know what part is affected?
  It is also quite simple, you connect an external USB keyboard.
  If you notice the same problems using the external keyboard, the problem is related to the keyboard controller. If you n notice any problems using the USB, the computer keyboard keyboard internal works poorly in this case has to be replaced.

• Pavilion: Pavilion x 360 problems of keyboard and screen

  I'm the unhappy owner of a x 360 Pavilion, prod. lol M9G20EA #UUW.

  Big questions:

  1. About half of the time the screen is upside down when I opened the PC. Sometimes closing and by reopening bypasses the screen. Sometimes a reboot is required.
  2. The hardware keyboard and the touchpad randomly is disabled. A full restart is necessary for reactivation.

  The machine is working. The service company argues that were without material errors, and restored the operating system to windows 8 - who has not solved the problems.

  I see in this forum a lot has similar problems with this model. I've tried every suggestion I could find here. Onfortunately it did not help.

  Just for the follow-up of this: HP transferred my "case" in Danish support, who contacted me by phone and loved very much for help me.
  I send a few drivers for display, chipset and touchpad, with instructions to install them in a specific order.
  Unfortunately, it has not solved the problem.
  I was then absent for various during some time and when I went back to using the machine again, there was an update of display driver of app HP Support Assistant unfortunately the autoinstall has failed, but I managed to find the same product on the HP website driver download and install manually from there. I also found a newer version of the chipset driver, which I also installed.
  Installation of the required drivers, a lot of tinkering, including the assistance of a third party (provided by HP) to completely remove the old display driver, several restarts in safe mode, etc.
  At the time of writing these I have had no problems on keyboard for a while - hoping he disappeared completely. The problem with the screen being upside is still there, but to a much lesser degree. In addition, the orientation sensor seems more sensitive, while just shaking the screen backwards a little wil if he turns in the correct position.
  If this will continue to be the situation, I can live with that.
  But still: (almost) all that work to make a product works as advertised should not be necessary. It should work out of the box or at least with a quick access, automated driver update.
  When I saw a great add to the airport the other day, promising that HP will "continue to reinvent", I couldn't help wishing that they would take a break, in order to ensure that they have already invented is currently working as expected ;-)

• Problem with keyboard on the Satellite L50 - has

  Hello

  I have the model L50 - A Satellite and all typing today, whenever I type a letter on the /eyboard (of the previous word it should be easy to understand what letter it is!) it is replaced by / (slash).

  My computer is only a couple of months and is very well cared for (without food or liquids allowed near him!). I've heard many people having a problem with the letters being substituted by numbers, which I think is a num loc / problem. I've tried, even restored computer to factory settings, but still no luc /!

  I hope someone may be able to help out me?
  That / s :)

  > tried, even restored computer to factory settings, but still no luc /!
  I m there is a problem with the hardware of the keyboard, and I guess that everything would work correctly using external USB keyboard. If you do not have to test this in the past, I would advise you do this just to confirm that the use of the external keyboard wouldn t be a problem.

  I guess that there is no other way for you to replace the internal keyboard with a new one.
  I assume that the warranty is still valid, because the L50 - A is new to the market and therefore, you should contact the Toshiba authorized service provider to get it fixed for free.

• Cannot type, hardware problem?

  When the connection of the user, I couldn't type my password because the computer type the letter H continuous. My friend thought it was a problem of a bad keyboard, then it deleted physically from the laptop. I plugged a USB, same problem keyboard.

Then I reinstalled windows xp, but when the time comes to enter the product key, I can't because of the letter HARMAN etc. Now I'm stuck in an endless install because the message "the file 'asms' on windows xp professional service pack 1 cd is necessary." "The type pathname file is located and click ok." In the box that I have would seize the file, HAROLD constantly. Command button will remove HHH, but when I'm not pressing strand CNTRL of h. The laptop is a Sony Viao pcg-8m3l. Keyboard still deleted cell phone fr. changed the hard drive, tried to reinstall, same prob. Start beeps continuously. Have that before the removal of the keyboard & before you reinstall attempt. Please let me know what hardware problem, I looked over. Thanx

  Hi KaliTender,

  Follow these methods.

  Method 1: Disconnect any external devices to the laptop and see if the problem still occurs.

  Method 2: Boot into the bios and reset

  Note: Change (CMOS) BIOS/complementary metal oxide semiconductor settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  If the problem still persists, then contact the manufacturer for more help and information.

• Problem of keyboarding!

  I had a very frustrating problem with my keyboard.  First, he begins to answer slowlyto I type (sometimes it dosen´t evenresponds) and then to his starts typing a letter by itsel on several occasions and there continue to advocate himself without even touch the computer. This will increase the intensity until I restart the computer turns on. Other symptoms are MS Word creates dashes in the documents, trying to save the doc, change zoom etc (its cray).  My browser open´s tabs like that and out of nowhere. It's like something is type in the shortcuts on the keyboard. Sometimes, if you open a window, it will begin to act as if you let him hold the tab key. My laptop is a hp pavilion dv4with Windows 7 home Premium and I bought less than a month ago!  I tried to restore the default value of the plant and the same propblem persists. I tried to connect an external keyboard and it works perfectly... but if I press the built-in keyboard is going nuts. I tried to do a clean startup using Msconfig and nothing... tried updating drivers and... nothing! Can someone please help me understand this!

  
  

  Hi Fco.H.  If the problem persists after that you restored by default, updated drivers and external keyboard works perfectly so your laptop has almost certainly a hardware problem.  He'll be back at the point of sale and take advantage of your warranty.

• >... Problems with keyboard... should be a dot instead of a comma

  When I select a point on the keyboard the comma always appears... How can I fix this glich wireless keyboard?

  Test with another keyboard, to isolate the problem, the keyboard itself, or of the system and the iMac.

• Diagnostic tool hardware problems on Satellite has detected memory

  Diagnostic tool memory detected in my laptop hardware problems. Now I don't know what part of the hardware's fault.

  Whenever I start my laptop after shoutting it down for some time, it appears failed early and repair takes place and start using the system restore that will come back at some point.

  Is that what this has to do anything with overheating?
  Please help me immediately

  > Diagnostic memory tool detected hardware problems in my laptop. Now I don't know what part of the hardware's fault.

  I would assume memory one or two failures of modules.
  I recommend you to check them both.

  Remove a module and try to use the laptop with a connected module.
  Then another module test. Make it as different memory locations.

  If two modules are corrupt, then you will need to replace both.

• Wireless - hardware problem?

  Hello world

  I have a laptop HP V3018CL. I have a wireless issue. I can not connect what either. But here's the weird part, I can't find my int Device Manager listed wireless card. I can't find in the Network Neighborhood properties. And the WiFi (in front of the laptop is sold red / (Orange)?) I'm not good with colors) (it was blue)

  I tried to re-install the drivers but without success. Can someone help me with this? What it means if the led is orange/red solid. And why can't find my device in the Device Manager? Thank you

  Sam.

  Yesterday, I was chatting with HP support.
  
  It was the most frustrating conversation of my life. I told them exactly what I had done, the syptoms, everything and then the guy goes, we go just to install drivers. Even if I told them, it's a hardware problem, the orange light, the device, the update of the firmware Manager. All this fell on deaf years. It seemed that the guy knew nothing of the software support and read just via a script. arrrrggghhhhhhh! IT IS THE LAST TIME THAT I WILL EVEN INVEST IN A CV!
  
  so I just buy an adapter wifi for 30 dollars and call it a day!

• Satellite A200 reporting screens not correctable hardware problem blue

  My model Satellite A200 PSAFCA-01H00J is blue screening and reporting of a non correctable hardware problem. I disconnected all devices, including the mouse.

  All tests of memory and the device driver may report any problems. I unplugged and reinsert the two memory chips.

  There has been no hardware or changes to software other than Windows to auto update.

  This machine runs on Vista SP1. I dug the following message: Root cause found Bugcheck 124 unknown parameters 0x0, 0x95f7c3f0, 0xb2000040, 0 x 800. MSDN Info for this can be found at
  http://msdn.Microsoft.com/en-us/library/Windows/hardware/ff557321.

  Anyone know where I should look for this hardware problem?

  If you remove the second module of RAM is still blue screen?

  I saw 0 x 00000124 on a similar laptop and it was a problem of CPU.

• 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.

• Problem with keyboard on the Satellite C850-F0202.

  Hello

  I need urgent assistance on the keyboard of my C850-F0202.
  Without warning, the keyboard went without object.

  The only bit which seem to be affected are the shortcut keys for brightness(f2-f3), toggle (f12) wireless as well as those of the volume(f9-f10). In addition, the 'NUM LOCK' light during the restart.

  I made several suggestions and recommendations-system restore, uninstall the keyboard driver and reboot system, etc--all without success.
  In one of the occasions where I tried the system restore, I got an error message: critics of the process is dead.
  All attempts to "System Restore" ended without success.

  I am amazed, bar this problem keyboard, everything seems to work very well; start is smooth, no fuss.
  I'm at my wits end, I need more positive assistance.

  Please help, thanks!

  NB: Operating system: windows pro 8.1.

  Hello

  My personal opinion, you should check if this problem could be related to problem internal keyboard or keyboard controller.
  Connect the external USB keyboard and check if it will not work correctly.

  In case the connected USB keyboard will work not correctly, the problem is must be linked to the internal keyboard failure. To solve the problem, you must replace the internal keyboard.

• Problem with keyboard on Satellite L500-128

  Hi all

  I'm having some problems with the keyboard on my Satellite L500-128 - essentially; 8, 9, i, o, k, l and comma and period keys do not work.

  All other keys are working perfectly fine (I use an external keyboard if people wonder!)

  I'm technically minded but I was wondering if its worth disassemble the laptop and have one eye or if someone has had this problem with this laptop before - or if someone has any ideas with what he could fix.

  I tried to do a reset of the laptop (battery and pressing power button) I reinstalled the operating system, but the keyboard still has problems in the BIOS too.

  Hello

  In my opinion and as suggested by Liam, it looks like a simple keyboard malfunction and to solve this problem, the keyboard needs to be replaced.

  The Toshiba service in your country partner could replace the defective
  Otherwise, you could try to replace it yourself, but if you are a beginner and if you have no experience, ask a support technician.
