HP Pavilion dv7 keys does not work

Since I've upgraded to Windows 7 Pro on my HP Pavilion (dv7 - 1223ca), several keys on my keyboard have not been working properly. I've upgraded and downgraded my computer several times, and this has not happened before. When I press the G, H, BACKSPACE or the apostrophe key, they will not work unless I press one of them around thirty or forty times. As soon as I get one of them working, they begin to work properly for about five minutes, and then it goes back to the break.

It is a major problem that I use my laptop for work. I tried to reinstall the drivers for the keyboard, but this did not help. Someone at - it ideas?

Also, two of the keys on my keyboard (alt and del) went out completely and don't come back. Is there a chance HP would be able to replace these?

On the key that came to the wide, you will need to replace the entire keyboard, i.e. If you are unable to insert this back...

Keys does not, this looks like a keyboard problem, but we can check in the BIOS as well. In the BIOS, go to security, select Admin password and press on enter, now try and test the keys here, if it doesn't there as we have confirmed the problem keyboard...

  • Pavilion P6-2133: Product key does not work?

    I tried to update my system Windows 10 the past two days, and the downloads completely update but fails to install.

    I tried to download the Microsoft Media creation tool and created a USB bootable for upgrad go, but this requires a product key. When I enter the product key on the side of my Tower, that he told me that this key does not work.

    No idea why my product key appears to be invalid and what I can do about it? I plug this new system and I am the sole owner, and its the same running a copy of Windows 7 that is come preinstalled the day I bought it.

    I finally solved the problem by using the iso instead of the USB. I downloaded the iso on my D drive and mounted with Daemon tools and launched the installer from there, he had my key loan but he never asked a.

    I had to use the same method on my tablet, but it was 8.1 that has the ability to mount an iso natively, so I put the iso on my SD card and it mounted from there. However, 8 + pcs generally have the key integrated on the motherboard.

    I was using the latest version of the multimedia tool, but no matter what he asked for a key.

    Hello

    (1) once the unit is on keep tap the F8 key, select the last good known configuration & check if Unit works very well.

    (2) you can also try F10 key try to do a Bios default.

    (3) once the unit is power on keep touching the use key F8, and then select Safe mode with command prompt type keys and check if the keys does not work, you may need to replace the keyboard because it is a hardware failure.
