Help! Cola spilled on the laptop keyboard

Help! Cola poured on ketboard to laptop

This isn't something that the casual user should expect to be able to solve.  Someone knowledgeable about your brand and the computer model will have to demolish and clean completely out and the sooner the better as colas contain acid which will probably damage the computer any longer, they are allowed to stay on it.

    The ability to rotate the screen image is a characteristic of your video
    card, to help work with instructors who turn to the portrait
    orientation. Almost certainly you accidentally press on Ctrl-Alt, and
    an arrow key.
    Rotate using these keys.

    No!

    I can't be sure, but very likely problem is not the keyboard
    malfunctions, but rather that she brushes accidentally his hand
    against the touchpad while typing.

  • Equium A100 - malfunction of the laptop keyboard

    Hello

    I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite A100 and when I press u on the keyboard on that I get 8u, when I I I ki, press o, I get lo, press press 2, I get w2. I checked the keyboard for defects on the cable to the motherboard, also shortcut keys off.

    I tried an external keyboard and it worked well. I ended up buying a new keyboard which worked well for a while, and then all of a sudden, he started doing the problem mentioned earlier.

    I uninstalled the driver and then reinstalled it but no difference. I am running Windows XP Home SP3.

    I hope someone can shed some light on this problem.

    Thank you.

    > I tried an external keyboard and it worked well. I ended up buying a new keyboard which worked well for a while, and then all of a sudden, he started doing the problem mentioned earlier.
    You bought the new keyboard and it solved the problem for a while.
    Well, in my opinion, there are two possibilities;
    You had a great misfortune and the new keyboard started to malfunction too, or there is something wrong with the keyboard on the mobo controller.

    But it's just my personal suggestion and if you want to know what's not exactly then you should ask a Toshiba ASP in your country for a control of the laptop.

    By the way; I hope that you use the latest version of the BIOS.

  • Need help placing picture in the laptop of a video screen...

    I have images that are both zoom and pan, and need a photo image to fit within the space of the laptop screen for the duration of the pan/zoom.  Use 'Track Motion', accompanied by the key-framing in 2D?  Does make sense?  Y at - it a way more easy to achieve this goal, or is - that the route to follow?

    Here is a rough take of the clip I'm talking about.  In reality, we will place the same image on the HDTV and the laptop in the shot.  I hope that it will do what I said above a little clearer.  Hope you can help.  Thank you very much.

    If you have CS4 then I advise to use Mocha for AE (tracking software system imagineers that comes with AE CS4 planar). It is designed primarily for the kinds of things you have described. There are some useful tutorials on the imagineer systems Web site:

  • Coffee spilled on the magic keyboard

    Hi guys, I recently spilled some coffee on my keyboard magic and tried my best to remove it...

    The day after that, I tried to use it to see if it worked correctly and he realized that some of the keys are not working...

    Is there a way I could solve this problem?

    Here is a photo showing the keys which do not and those who are...

    Probably toast.

    Worse still, you can probably buy more 2 (one is a backup) and little to transport the parts.  OWC (macsales.com) carries the original wireless keyboard.  The only wireless sold by Apple now keyboard is designed for single El Capitan, not only not to work (less reliable) with Yosemite and back.  It does not... easy to tell who's old and new batteries.

    OWC carries the old style, still at $69.  As well as the old style Magic Trackpad at $69.

    If you beg and plead, Apple store * could * exchange one of the used old from their shelves for a fee, but ask nicely.

  • Hello, please help me. I use a power keyboard for my laptop. I see in the new keyboard is equipped with a num lock key is turned on. I can't use on it please help me disable it. I do not use a NumLock on. Thank you

    Hello, please help me. I use a power keyboard for my laptop. I see in the new keyboard is equipped with a num lock key is turned on. I can't use on it please help me disable it. I do not use a NumLock on. Thank you

    You say that when you press the NUM LOCK key, the Numlock State does not change (if enabled to disabled and vice versa)?  Have you tried to unplug the keyboard and by ensuring that the keyboard of the laptop does not have enabled Numlock?  If so, turn it off on the laptop keyboard and reinsert the another keyboard and see if the problem is resolved.

    If you do not need the Numlock key, it can be disabled at startup with the following procedure:http://www.technipages.com/enabledisable-numlock-at-login-or-startup.html. Once this is done, I don't think he's going to turn on or off and that they the keyboard will start in the off position.  You will not be able to use the key yourself or another, but maybe the problem she is on (which is worse than it to be impossible to be turned on) will be resolved and I hope it will be enough for you.

    If the key does not work and you want to be able to use it, the keyboard may be defective.  Try the keyboard on another computer and see if you have the same problem.  If so, the keyboard is defective and must be replaced.

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • laptop keyboard outputs incorrect strikes after unplugging the usb keyboard.

    I use a laptop Twinhead on which I plugged a Microsoft Natural keyboard for a while. Now when I did start, the laptop keyboard hit mixed-up and incorrect. I tried updating the driver, but it seems difficult that bing can't seem to get the - numbers - update. I noticed to form this forum that people have had a similar problem with connect a keyboard external usb. the solution was to press Fn + numberlock. It worked. Should I seriously to do forever when I use the keyboard of the laptop instead of a usb keyboard? There must be a good way to solve this problem, not a workaround solution.

    USB keyboard will automatically use a HID Driver and the driver disappears when I unplug it. The laptop keyboard still does not properly.

    I would probably uninstall the keyboard through Control Panel > system > hardware > device driver. Then right-click on the keyboard and uninstall it. Make a hard re-boot, then use the restore disc provided with most computers to re - install your keyboard.

  • Pavilion 17-f115dx: could not find the right keyboard

    Liquid spilled into the laptop.  Now the keyboard does not work.  In addition, the screen never turns off.  The keyboard seems to be part of the complete top as well as the touch pad.  Every keyboard I find seems to be just the keyboard.  I tried to use the HP PartSurfer, but it shows about 20 different keyboards. Can someone help me find the right part?  I'll worry later about the screen.  Thanks in advance.

  • Toshiba laptop keyboard not working not properly

    Today my daughter was doing the work of the school on my old Toshiba laptop purchased in February 2012. It crashed at 12 Dec, Toshiba gave me the whole term on fixig so I had to have local difficulty. Even after it was fixed, it never was the same a awesome laptop turned into something of a child's play. Anyway, I gave this laptop to my daughter and bought another laptop. Once again, the Toshiba worked but was not until I had to do, was not quickly leave and the hard drive was not the same (once it has been repaired), but it was bearable for a child. Today, my daughter was of school work (or try) when she noticed problems with the keyboard. The buttons were working, but which has been pressed, wasn't showing on the screen. Example: If you press the W button, this indicates: 3/3/3/3/3 appears in the display. If you press the button, it appears:... (3) individual letters, numbers and random characters appear on the screen when you try to type. If you press BACKSPACE, it refreshes the page. I found an old office keyboard and ito the Toshiba is plugged and I am able to type without any problem, so I thought that it was a matter of device. I went to devices and printers, ran a bad shoot and got the following report:

    SM Bus controller is not a driver not installed
     
    Problems encountered:
    Unknown device is not a driver... Not fixed
    Apply the solution to the problem of driver... . Completed
    Install a driver for this device... done
     
    SM Bus controller doesn't have a driver... Not fixed
    Apply the solution to the problem of... completed pilot
    Install a driver for this device... Completed
     
    Problem with the PnP devices... Detected
     
    Potential problems that have been verified:
    Windows Update is configured to never install drivers... There is no question

    I tried to install a driver using Windows Update, but it was uncessful / could not detect a driver installed. Windows has suggested I go the manufacturer of my laptop to download a driver from this site. I'm on the Toshiba site now and after entering my serial number on this subject, they gave me a list of updates. I do not know which install beause they have two updates listed under keyboard, 10 listed under devices. I don't know which one I need to choose.

    When I first bouht the Toshiba it was Windows 7 (which came standard with all computers). The person who fixed installed Windows 7 Ultimate, if it helps. Can someone please advise on what is wrong with the laptop keyboard. The laptop was not great after it crashed / 'repaired', but he was able to do the basic functions

    Hello

    Sorry, but I don't see it as a software problem, despite the report of devices and printers.  I would say that time has caught up with your computer "crashed" (where the report of devices and printers).

    Are you able to type normally with an external keyboard, the "computer" went very well. The problem is with the keyboard and/or the original "repair" (which does not look like it completely solved the original problem).

    My suggestion would be to take it to a repair shop trust you, or your daughter use the external keyboard, or possibly to invest a few hundred dollars in a used cell phone, or...

    Keep me posted and let me know how you fare.

    Kind regards
