  • Inspiron 1525-1526, Touchpad, mouse, or keyboard issues resolved

    Hi all. I'm new on the dell forum. I'm here to show you how to repair inspiron 1525-1526 issues touch pad and keyboard. some of you experience the touchpad Act crazy, cursor jumping from one side of the screen to another, etc., some of you have the experience of the keyboard works sometimes, and other keyboard types that it itself, etc. now all back together. or test your touchpad before put you everything back. If you apply duct tape behind the touchpad cable. Please do! you will now also love using your laptop with no problems. Note: your keyboard should work correctly now. Touchpad problem makes the useless keyboard. because now the touchpad is fixed, your keyboard should work fine. If it isn't, please apply the same technique, place the tape at the end of the keyboard cable.


    I hope everyone is happy and enjoying their laptops. Well apparently the touchpad cable connection coming loose over time. why many dell customers have their computers laptops repair by factory dell only to work for a few months, and then the problem comes back. in other words, the thickness of the wire shrinks over time or the latch that keeps the cable loses decision-making. but as you see a little little band solves this problem.

  • OMEN 15 J9K22UA #ABA: Fan and keyboard issues

    I'm having two problems currently:

    (1) my fan on the left is completely out some time back and I replaced it under warranty from HP.  Unfortuantly now my right fan running at a slower speed and pushes the air noticeably warmer than the fan on the left.  I use external fans as well to make sure that my computer stays cool, but I don't want to have to worry about the right side of my computer overheating.  I already have the box ready to go to send it back for warranty once again, but my school semester has started and most of my courses require me to have my own computer of the person.  Should I just ignore it until the semester ends or is there someway to fix (that I already lived the standard protocol, that support services would take me.

    (2) my keyboard light OMEN control and do not work.  My WASD keys in particular are faded compared to the rest of my keyboard, to solve this problem, I ran a number of diagnostics and then did a hard reset where I had the powerbutton while he was off and everything has been disconnected for 10 seconds.  That seems to help the problem, A is now just as bright and W and D keys are almost as bright as the rest of the keyboard, but the S key is equally bleak.  In addition control of OMEN of HP does not work at all (keys, macro, advanced options, colors, ect.).  I tried to completely reinstall the software two receipts and suggest the control panel partners itself as other pages on this forum, but that has not solved the problem.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Thank you.

    Hey @Zeddiclease,

    The document on the BIOS does not affect Windows and is exactly the same thing for Windows 08/07/10. The second document is a click on the left side of the Panel for Windows 10.

    You can try to use theWindows Update Troubleshooter to fix updates that do not come through Windows.  Please restart the laptop twice to make sure that all updates are completed!

    In Device Manager, click the arrow next to display adapters to expand the category. Right-click on the graph, and then select Update driver software if more than 1 graphic adapter do 1 at a time.
    Select search automatically for updated driver software.
    The laptop must find and automatically install the updated driver
    Once the installation is complete, restart your laptop.

    Thank you.

  • HP Chromebook model 14-xo13dx: Chromebook HP 14 "keyboard issue some keys not working not not - difficult - please read!

    I had a problem with my HP Chromebook intermittently keys work only not - y, m, n, etc.  They would work, then not work, and it was very frustrating esp to log in b/c I couldn't get my typed password.

    I thought that I would need a new keyboard, but my ex-husband wonderful thought that we should try to clean and reconnect the keyboard to the motherboard connector.  Assembly of the top panel was removed (after removing the screws of the lower case)...

    -See http://support.hp.com/us-en/product/HP-Chromebook-14-x000/7277301/model/7547744/product-info?lang=en...

    He cleaned the keyboard connector with isopropyl alcohol and re-connected the connector and it worked.

    It may not work for everyone, but try this b/f you buy a new keyboard.

    Thank you very much.  The first solution that I asked was very temporary - my chromebook was still under warranty so I was able to send it back.  My husband did the first fix, but don't think that it would take, and he did not.

    If that ever happens again so I will use this solution.  you are a genius, thanks a lot!

  • 3000 x 4 TouchPad / keyboard issue?

    I have started to have a rather odd behavior, the mouse pointer "selects" all the time (selection box), what is happening currently with the office and it randomly moving icons as if I have the selected with the mouse (touchpad) the keyboard seems to also play up because it takes almost 2 minutes sometimes before XP login screen I can type anything (as applicable)

    This is driving me crazy and I suspect that the keyboard and the touchpad need replace (the machine is now about 4 years old) my question is would this be something that I can do myself (used to assemble the PC but not laptops) and can people recommend a good place for parts or sounds like something I should get done "good"?

    Based in the United Kingdom and don't want to be ripped off, I get a replacement keyboard should be about £65 if someone could please give me some info.

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    If you really want, you could buy a USB keyboard and a mouse, assuming that's what you want. Depending on the amount you want to spend. The touchpad is a bit more to change, as you disassemble the screen of the high Assembly. Then remove the top Assembly from the lower to go where it is positioned. Takes a bit of time and can spoil. The keyboard is easier and has only a few screws to undo and your game. I always recommend to take it to the repair shop just because they are able to do it in a blink of eye and without any problem. Try reinstalling windows as well on your laptop, could just be an OS problem.

  • Satellite Pro P300-1AY - screen and keyboard issues

    Satellite Pro P300-1AY

    First and most importantly, I suspect that the backlight may have gone in my laptop screen.
    If, for example, it's just something simple like a loose connection, this is an easy solution?

    Otherwise, no idea how much it would cost for a replacement?

    Secondly, I switch to a different keyboard layout.
    Anyone know where I can find a Belgian AZERTY keyboard for this laptop?

    Thanks x

    > First of all and above all, I suspect that the backlight may have gone in my laptop screen.
    > If, for example, it's just something simple like a loose connection, this is an easy fix

    Hmm. Maybe it's s inverter a FL. The FL inverter is a small part that controls the screen backlight
    Generally disassembly laptop procedure is very delicate and looks like you've never disassembled the laptop so I would not recommend to do anything which could damage the other parts get in touch with a local ASP and ask for help.
    Usually the FL inverter should not be expensive pieces but I have no idea on costs

    > Does anyone know where I can find a Belgian AZERTY keyboard for this laptop?
    and once again all spare parts can be ordered from local ASP.

  • Satellite A300 - touchpad & keyboard issues

    I have the same problem that a lot of people is faced with (PSAG8E - 05J00TEN Toshiba Satellite A300 - 21H). I'm sure that the touchpad is not disabled.
    Clean installation of Windows VISTA - touchpad & keyboard half the time not work half the time. I'm sure this isn't a driver problem (if it doesn't not Device Manager said was a problem with the device..). I already tried 5 different drivers...
    I am faced with the question since I bought it... I thought that there could be problem with OS, today I installed UBANTU but face question (Mouse pad stops after some time) with this OS too... I'm sure that its hardware problem not with OS or any driver...

    Please can someone is there any solution for this...

    I have Satellite A300-1LI and it is also PASG8E but I n t notice a keyboard or touchpad problem. At the beginning I used it with the original image of Vista, but about a year now, I use Windows XP Home edition and Win7 as dual-boot. No problem at all.

    If you have noticed this strange problem from day one, why you didn t contacted Toshiba service and asked for help?
    I can imagine there is a hardware problem but I put t know what you want to do all alone on this subject. want to trade you the keyboard or the touchpad only.

    Replacement of keyboard is not a big problem but the touchpad...

  • Re: Keyboard issue on new Satellite L755 - 16H

    I have problem with my keyboard since I bought the laptop, firstly some keys do not work or give a different letter, I send for repair and they replace with a new one.

    Now, I have same problem again, but sometimes.
    I need to reboot to become normal. Can anyone help.

    Thank you

    I put t know what do you mean with restart, but you need to do is to contact the service, and to explain the situation.

    Ask if the BIOS update can help you. If yes I recommend you update the BIOS to the latest version.

    Check like the Toshiba download page and compare available latest version with that preinstalled.

    Are they the same?

  • iPad Pro French keyboard issues

    Hello

    I hope I can find an answer here with your help, even if my problem may be specific to the configuration of the iOS keyboard 9 of the French.

    Whenever I press "4", AutoCorrect changes to a "4" "even if nothing of the sort is defined in the settings of text replacement.

    It's the same thing the key 'to', which has its own key on the iPad pro in French, every time I enter it and press space, the "to" is automatically erased... It's really annoying and I have not found a solution...

    If by chance someone has an idea in mind,]], it would be greatly appreciated
