Laptop keyboard HP - several letters with a single blow (ee ss tt)

I have a new 15.6 "HP Pavilion 15-p157sa laptop running Windows 8.1, which is anything but the question keybord I have been unable to solve.  While typing, I sometimes get double instances of the same chaaracter entered with unique pressures.

I'm going to go bacck and corrrect anything I type iin beefore I posst it.  For the purpose of this post on the forum, I' just vee left just as it is without corrrecting letters double - by way of sshowing you exacctly wwhat happening.

My first thouught it is ccaused by typing orr too ssoftt too hard, so I have not tested this theory aandd ffoundd no change.

I then tried changging options delay key repeat, but it also made no difference.

I'vve also tried ussingg the parameters "key bouncee" under acccessibilitty.  There is no heelp either, like the time the fastest that you can set 0.5 seconds, sso, I ended up having to presses keey missed to aaltoggether, unless I slowed down my typing speeed ddown.

I searcheed the net and these forumss for one is, but all I can ffind iss the isssue where people geet multiplee, various characteers appearing on scrreen, not the same characcteers, double, as you can see on this post.

If someone couldd thrrow me a BONE here, I'd do it appreciaatee it.

The answer you need is here:

http://h30434.www3.HP.com/T5/notebook-hardware/keyboard-has-a-tendency-to-repeat-keystrokes-maaking/TD-p/2650729

I tried all the other suggested fixes: changes/updates to BIOS; keyboard settings, uninstall the drivers, etc. The link above, which will take you through the evolution of the "rate of key Bounce" in the registry was finally the fix.

I had three computers HP Envy due to this problem - many hours wasted with corrections and feedback. No one at HP could never understand - thanks to 'talkingtoaj2' to understand the problem of HP. He should be compensated.

  • How to focus on a web page with a single shortcut?

    I like to use the keyboard, scroll web pages with arrows... If the body of the page loses focus (for instance by pressing Alt + D) the only way (AFAIK) to focus the page again is by pressing Tab several times until I can continue with the scroll arrows. It would be good to focus a page with a single shortcut, is think?

    Press F6.

    I am running windows 8.1

    Connect the external USB keyboard and check if the same problem of double letters appear using this external USB keyboard.

    If the symptoms of double letters will not appear with the external keyboard, the internal computer keyboard must be faulty.

    This means that the internal keyboard needs to be replaced to solve the problem.
    But if even the double letter appears using the external keyboard, then the keyboard controller (part of the motherboard) may be affected.

    Not quite sure if this could be corrected by BIOS updated, but where your BIOS is not updated, try updating the BIOS.

    Otherwise, I recommend you contact the authorized Toshiba maintainer for a control.

  • Keyboard not typing letters

    I can't get my keyboard to type letters, where are my keys to numbers. They share the same keys. How can I change back to letters only.

    Hi dscarbs,

    I guess that it is a laptop? The number/letter combination is generally enabled or disabled via a key called "FN". See if you have a FN key and tap it to see if your keyboard back to normal. You may have inadvertently, you press the button while using the keyboard.

    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.

  • I've had several accidents with the blue screen noting CRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

    Hello.

    Here are some files dump of my crashes: http://cid-5cfec8d823e42bd3.office.live.com/browse.aspx/.Documents

    Here's what happens:

    Since June, I've had several accidents with the blue screen noting CRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL (Yes, CRQL, no IRQL level), and they are producing at closer intervals. I also notice some changes of office and some sounds to open files that are not have happened before. I run antivirus and malware and found nothing. I did a disk cleanup and defragmentation.

    I also tried to install via Windows updates and everything seems to date. I ran Windows Memory Diagnostic tool, and it found no errors. I ran Windows Startup Repair and got the following note:

    Root Cause found.

    Unknown bug control: one error checking.

    Parameters = 0 x 0, 0x817dc32c, 0x820e8114, 0 x 0.

    After the last crash, I got a message saying that Windows is aware of the problem and trying to fix it. Any ideas?


    Thank you in advance for your help!

    Hello

    Uninstall Faultwire and look for the codes manually as needed. The link to troubleshooting blue screen
    page will show you how to get them.

    How old is the system? A real computer store (not the leeks and glances at a Best Buy or other large surfaces)
    Stores) can help to give a proper diagnosis of the machine.

    You can use Safe Mode - repeatedly tap F8 as you start - use to back up your data in a redundant
    way off the machine. Then re-install Windows that "might" help if the problem is software partner.
    Of course, you will need to reinstall your programs and restore the data in the machine.

    Although there are a large number of errors there could be a cause for all. Try to remove ALL power and
    reinstall all the memory cards and cables (at both ends, when possible) - actually delete and replace.
    do not just tight. Clean the dust bunnies (of course those who are for a PC - for a laptop to ensure that)
    the vents are clear). Try using a small fan blowing through the vents to see if heat is a problem.

    Update key drivers - display/video, NETWORK card and WiFi (network), sound (do not forget to check the sound card drivers
    What update because they will often rollback then repeat the installation until the correct version appears), modem
    and all of the other major features, you could have as 3rd party mouse or keyboard.

    This is my generic how updates of appropriate driver:

    This utility, it is easy see which versions are loaded:

    -Free - DriverView utility displays the list of all device drivers currently loaded on your system. For
    each driver in the list, additional useful information is displayed: load address of the driver, description,.
    version, product name, company that created the driver and more.
    http://www.NirSoft.NET/utils/DriverView.html

    For drivers, visit manufacturer of emergency system and of the manufacturer of the device that are the most common.
    Control Panel - Device Manager - Display Adapter - note the brand and complete model of your
    video card - double - tab of the driver - write version information. Now click on UPdate Driver (this
    cannot do anything as MS is far behind the certification of drivers) - then do a right click - Uninstall - REBOOT
    This will refresh the driver stack.

    Repeat this for network - card (NIC), Wifi network, sound, mouse, and keyboard if 3rd party with their
    own the software and drivers and all other main drivers that you have.

    Now go to the site of the manufacturer of system (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) (restoration) and then of the manufacturer of the device
    (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for the BIOS, Chipset and software)
    updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

    Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after each installation.

    Always check in the Device Manager - tab drivers version you install actually shows up. This
    because some restore drivers before the most recent is installed (particularly that audio drivers) so install a
    pilot - reboot - check that it is installed and repeat if necessary.

    Repeat to the manufacturers - BTW on device at the DO NOT RUN THEIR SCANNER - manually check by model.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    How to install a device driver in Vista Device Manager
    http://www.Vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-Device-Manager-install-driver.html

    If you update the drivers manually, then it's a good idea to disable the facilities of driver in the Windows updates,
    This leaves ONE of Windows updates, but it will not install the drivers who are generally older and cause
    questions. If updates offers a new driver and then hide it (right click on it) and then go look for new ones
    manually if you wish.

    NOTE: Often restore audio drivers to check the version after installing and restarting is
    see if the version you have installed is there, otherwise repeat the installation - restart until it is. This may take
    several tests according to the recommitments how much he makes.

    Hope these helps.

  • On NEW laptop keyboard does not work after that the screen keyboard has been activated and then deactivated.

    Look at my friend got a new laptop and went through the whole upward. the on-screen keyboard has been activated which invalidates the real keyboard when the on-screen keyboard has been disabled the real keyboard has NO return. If this is a bug... Fix it. This is not a driver issue, it is not a user error. Stop giving people answers, trying to pretend like it's not not the OS when most people already know that it is.

    I'm sorry, but I didn't not new meant only one day.  And when I got my new laptop, one of the first things I did was to create a point of files, even a day later I had a restore to use - point and that was possible here as well.  I'm sorry it wasn't the case.

    If the system restore option is not available, do a startup repair, boot from the disk Installation of Windows Vista genuine (or one that you can borrow from someone) or a recovery disc.  Here is the procedure: http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/tutorials/tutorial148.html.  You may need to change the BIOS to do first the CD drive in the boot sequence to boot from the CD.  To do this, hold the screen that tells you the key F to push to enter the menu start or start of installation.  Push it quickly. Make the changes, save your work and exit.  Put the CD in the drive and reboot.  When you are prompted, press any key to boot from the CD.

    If you do not have a floppy disk, you can make a bootable recovery disk by using http://neosmart.net/blog/2008/windows-vista-recovery-disc-download/ with burning software like: http://www.snapfiles.com/get/active-isoburner.html and, of course, a blank CD.

    If this does not work, you can try to go into the BIOS during the startup (the key appropriate to push appear on the screen to enter the boot menu or boot installation - try them both in turn if both appear. It is possible that the BIOS contains an option to disable the keyboard (which may have been activated by the keyboard on the screen but not changed when disable you the on-screen keyboard) and you may need to re-enable manually.  There is a slight possibility, but it is an option to try.

    Another option to try is to set up a new user account that has never used the keyboard on the screen and see if the regular keyboard works when you connect to this account.  If so, you can simply treat the original as a corrupt account account and use the following procedures to complete the transfer.  To fix this use http://windows.microsoft.com/en-AU/windows-vista/Fix-a-corrupted-user-profile.

    I hope that one of these aid procedures.  I'm sorry if they seem to 'generic', but we do not really know what is the problem - especially since the system is new.  We try and identify the cause and fix the problem at the same time using the procedures available to us.  I suspect there's a registry tweak will correct this problem, but I went through the whole registry, and although I found several referencers keyboard, I could find no which seemed to control or not activate the main laptop keyboard (though it has been in one of the entries that has been encoded in binary that I couldn't read).  It's possible someone who knows more about the registry will respond to this issue with a proposal to amend (or perhaps another solution).

    I hope that one of the solutions I proposed works.  Please post back in all cases we will know whether or not to continue searching for an answer.

    Good luck!

  • keyboard guard leaping letters

    My brand new Acer laptop jumps a lot a lot of letters when I type.

    What can BE DONE TO STOP all THE the SPELLING ERRORS to CAUSE OF KEYBOARD the QUESTIONS?

    Please forgive the directness of my answer.

    Eventually, an indication of the cause or the cause of the error factor can be seen by looking at what you have posted. Note the word "can". She appears as "can", and all the text after that initial 'c' is capitalized. Which indicates that, when the intention of keyboard lower case letters 'a', you press the Caps Lock key instead.

    Corrective measures could include: keyboard more convenient while you get used to the feel of the keyboard and spacing; Touch typing classes/exercises to improve your accuracy. return Acer and get a model with a full keyboard size or with a feeling different keyboard (touch typists are sometimes thrown out by key-falls in shallow water or changes to spacing).

    All that, despite everything, it is possible that the keyboard or the associated circuits or software defective or damaged. If methodical test shows intermittent or dead keys, do not return the unit under warranty.
