Laptop keyboard not working not

My laptop keyboard finally quit, and I can not connect after that it resets the last time. The vowels are not working so I can't sign into Windows to my docs or anything like that!  What I have to reinstall Windows, and if so, will I lose all of my docs, photos, etc.?  My last backup was some time ago and I know that it doesn't have some of the things that I need.  For some reason any just vowels do not work, and I have vowels in my password.  Unfortunately, I just had the Mac and did not transfer all I need my laptop again.

Hello

1. What is the brand and model of the laptop?
2. don't you make changes to the computer before the show?

Method 1
I suggest to connect the external keyboard and try to connect.

Method 2

Once you log in, then I suggest you try the steps from the following link:

  • 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

  • laptop keyboard stopped working after Windows update.

    have a toshiba satellite A505 laptop and the keyboard stops working after Windows Update reboots. We reinstalled Windows 7, which fixed the problem until the updates have come. Now the keyboard is unresponsive. Sounds like a software problem, no material. Also checked the keyboard drivers that are up to date.

    As a first response, go to the control panel, device, keyboard, keyboard Manager and right click, uninstall it and let it rediscover Windows and then reinstall it.

    It suits it much of the time.

  • Laptop keyboard not working not not to logon windows 7

    I recently installed Windows 7 on my laptop and everything seemed ok. For about a week now, however, the keyboard does not work on the logon screen. So I can't send the Ctrl + Alt + Delete keys. The mouse still works and the keyboard works at boot because I am able to choose Safe mode or start windows normally. I always stopped abnormally before getting the keyboard works. What should I do?

    What do you mean. "stop abnormally before getting the keyboard works."  He works the next time?   What happens if you connect an external keyboard?

    You can view f the manufacturer of the laptop has a driver Windows 7 chip set available.

  • HP 620 laptop - keyboard now works correctly

    My keyboard does not work properly.  While typing my cursor move in another part of my doc E-mail/Word, etc. and continue typing from there which is very frustrating because I could watch only once I finished my sentence.  It highlights and removes messages when you type too and I can tell you that I am not very productive to have to constantly change and check my work.

    Is there a solution to solve this.  I had to type this message a number of times and now I see has decided to highlight this sentence.

    Hi Tobsta,

    If your cursor moves around, it is very probably the touchpad that is the problem.

    You can manually disable this option-> Control Panel-> mouse-> settings-> disable the touchpad.

    See if it works. If you turn this off, you will need to use a USB mouse instead.

    The sensitivity of the touchpad could be irrelevant. I suggest your laptop service and have it checked by

    an HP engineer. It could be a hardware problem that is causing the cursor to move.

    Please call HP support and find a nearby service center.

    Here is the link: http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/phone-assist.html#section1

    Hope you'll get fixed soon!

  • HP 15 laptop keyboard stopped working (half anyway)

    Z X C V Space bar M period and coma all stopped working randomly on my HP notebook15 while I was typing? I had to go on my phone to ask this question, because the space bar will not work. I had not yet 3 months and I don't spill anything on it. I restarted and took battery still does not work HELP!

    Hello

    This could be a hardware problem, but it is always worth trying the following.

    Open windows control panel, open Device Manager, expand keyboards, right-click on the "Standard PS/2 Keyboard" entry and select uninstall.

    Shut down the laptop - if you're running Windows 8/8.1, do it by holding down the button SHIFT left click Shutdown to temporarily prevent a hybrid boot.

    Then disconnect the AC adapter and then remove the battery.  Press and hold the Power button for 30 seconds.  Reinsert the battery and plug in the AC adapter.

    Robinet tap away at the key esc that you start the computer to launch the Start Menu, and then select f10 to open the bios menu.  Press f9 to load the default values (sometimes it is f5, but the menu below indicates the correct key), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press ENTER.  Press f10 to save the setting and still use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press on enter.

    Kind regards

  • Keys on the keyboard of the laptop does not match the characters typed on the screen after having connected and disconnected the separate keyboard

    I have a Dell Vostro 1310 (laptop).  My laptop keyboard was working fine until I decided to plug in a keyboard separated from Dell on the USB port, just to give my fingers a break from typing on the small keys of the laptop and then unplugged the keyboard to the keyboard of the laptop again.  Now, when I type using the keys of the laptop, some keys produce different characters on the screen.  This is what happens:

    "uiop' became keys ' 456."
    "jkl;" become "-123"
    "m" becomes "0" and
    '0' becomes ' / '.

    I think it may have something to do with the left button "Fn" Blue right next to the 'Ctrl' key on the lower side of the portable keyboard, because characters that appear match the blue characters on these keys with a malfunction.

    Can someone tell me please how to get these keys again function normally and to prevent this from happening in the future?

    I found the answer on another forum on the Internet.  Press SHIFT + Num Lk to deactivate the mode of operation.

    Hi KSPCLP,

    1. have you tested your keyboard in multiple applications?

    2. did you of recent changes to the computer?

    Step 1:

    If it works, you can use keyboard on the screen and check.

    Type without using the keyboard (on-screen keyboard)

    Step 2:

    You can also check if the keyboard works in safe mode.

    Start your computer in safe mode

    If you still experience the problem, you may need to contact Dell for assistance.

  • 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!

    my touch pad on my laptop does not move the pointer, but when I have my mouse wireless pluged in it will work I was told I could have disabled the touch pad which I have to do to activate it again?

    Hi dove2k,

     

    Welcome to Microsoft Answers Forums.

    You will need to enable the touchpad on the laptop itself.

    Find the area of the touch pad, you will find a button to enable or disable the touchpad.

    If the step above doesn't, try this step.

    Go to control panel > mouse > device settings tab
    Click (or to disable)

    Notes:
    On some models, there is a keyboard shortcut to enable or disable the touchpad. For example, ACER, just do Fn + F7.
    You can click on Reset device if none of these solutions work.

    If you still can't touch pad to work, you will need to contact the manufacturer of the laptop computer for more information.
