Shift + 3 produces £ instead of hash symbol

anyone out there can advise?

Nothing strange about that, is the keyboard UK... setting that has been loaded by default when the operating system has been installed, but you should be able to change it.

What operating system do you use?

    If you please check this older manuals of the user (Satellite P10)and there you can find the chapter entitled: keyboards

    Hey @Varghese_1 ,

    Welcome to the HP Forums!

    I understand your keyboard is not working properly and you got the error ID PUX6JX-76678N-XD7V7G-G06E03.

    This error indicates a hardware failure of keyboard. The only viable solution is to replace the keyboard.

    You can see a guide on the replacement of the parts here: HP 15 Notebook PC - Maintenance and Service of Guide. The steps to replace the keyboard are on page 39, which also includes a list of replacement parts for keyboards.

    You can order a replacement seeking the part number on the Web site HP part Surfer or sites like Amazon or eBay.

    Hope this helps!

  • How can I create a bug report? -Key Shift stickiness

    I have frequent problems in Fusion, where the keystrokes inside the VM frequently enter the State where they are all becoming control keys. For example, type "quit" returns in the application within Windows as quit.

    As you can see, it makes work in the virtual machine near impossible, because the difference between Shift keys and rays causes intolerable failures.

    Sometimes I can clear the problem by activating / disabling the mode of the unit. Most often, the problem occurs in Unity mode and out of this fashion helps. But sometimes the problem occurs in normal mode, and twice switching modes, and then help. Other times, there seems to be no help at all, and the virtual machine becomes unusable.

    The problem does not only with the key "control-sticky" but sometimes as a key "shift-sticky", or "inverted the upper locking button."

    My questions:

    1. How can I report this bug likely?

    2 is this a known bug?

    These conditions may occur if the client and the host of the keyboard state get out of sync.

    Keys stuck, try to press the change affected several times. A reversed, capslock key try the Virtual Machine > touch send > caps lock.
