• New SSD in T430, Windows does not, tried everything...

  Hello

  I bought a T430 a week ago. I'm not completely inept with computers: I have successfully added an another 4 GB of RAM with no problems.

  Then I wanted to replace my HDD with my SSD. I know that the SSDS works because he was in another laptop. I put it in an external dock; It hooked up to my T430. He allowed. I kept safe backup HARD drive, I used several times since then. I also did a recovery of Windows on a CD disc.

  I cloned the HARD drive on my SSD using EaseUS software and said to make it bootable. It didn't for me, so I blamed the software.

  Then I used Acronis True Image to make a bootable copy of my setup on a USB key. I turned on the computer with just the SSD (empty) and tried to load the USB key. My computer does not recognize the bootable copy of white point. Everything takes back me to a screen asking me which drive I want to start since several times.

  Good then, I said, clone the HDD to the SSD and try the bootable USB. Has done this, but it had no effect. Same problem as above.

  Okay okay, let's try a new installation on the SSD using the recovery disk. That's when the real fun happens. I get to the menu on the theme of Lenovo System Recovery, and I click Next. Then I get a warning message saying "this version of the System Recovery Options is not compatible with the version of Windows that you want to repair. Try to use a recovery disc that is compatible with this version of Windows. What? I did only this morning. I don't think that the main Windows updates has been since then! (Just in case, I made an even more recent recovery disc tonight. I had the same error).

  Then I erased the SSD and tried the recovery on the own SSD disk. Same mistake once again. Recovery disks do not work, the system does not recognize the USB copy and the SSD cloned (and allegedly boot-loan) does not start.

  What is going on? All I'm doing is replace my with my SSD HARD drive and running Windows 7. I don't think it would be this hard

  Some additional points:

  -I'm inserting readers. The computer can read it is a series of 840 Samsung SSD.

  -There is no problem with the USB. My office can read very well and sees that there are 29GB of stuff there.

  -J' have changed the boot order in the BIOS to load the disk USB (or CD) first.

  -J' disabled the safe boot option in the BIOS.

  -J' tried UEFI, inheritance, etc. etc., mixture of both.

  -Yes, it's a legitimate copy of Windows. It came with the computer a week ago. There is [i] might [/ i] a question I try to reinstall Windows 7 on SSD, but the only recovery disks that come with the computer are Windows 8... but then how do I get Win 7 on my SSD?

  -J' looked for in the forums. None of the solutions proposed (for most listed above) have worked.

  Any help would be appreciated, people.

  I had one extra hiccup. The disc of Windows 7 could not find the product key for activation/product on the BIOS. Couldn't any semi-douteux program I downloaded. So I could not allow Windows 7.

  I called Lenovo. They said it was my fault for using disks of Windows recovery instead of Lenovo recovery disks. (God forbid! It really should not matter. It is a terrible approach the part of Lenovo who their initial recovery disks gave me an error about the licenses, but yet they apparently do not support the Windows stocks recovery disks.) In any case, after that I said to the officer - in my polite way - that it is a ridiculous scenario, she offered to send me Lenovo recovery disks.

  I agreed. They arrived today. I reinstalled Windows and now everything works fine.

  In the case where someone reads this thread in the future: ask Lenovo will send you recovery disks Win 7 Pro and use after the installation of the SSD. It considerably facilitates the process.

• Modifier keys does not not in Illustrator CS4

  I have CS4 v14.0.0 for Mac, working on MacBook Pro running Leopard 10.5.7. I think it happened after the upgrade from v4.0.2 Safari that modifier keys Illustrator has stopped working. For example, to measure an object, using the SHIFT key and holding down the mouse button is no longer scale proportionally. Zoom (command + option + SPACEBAR) keys do not work either. Keys to change the type of work size (command + shift + > or <), as well as zoom in (command + key more or less keys) in and out of the artboard. I checked that the US Extended was NOT ticked, as mentioned in previous patches). I restarted my computer and ran AppleJack. I did remove the .plist yet. Help would be very appreciated.

  Thanks in advance, Ellie

  Oh, Quicken is the problem no doubt it's well documented I

• INSERT on X 240 key does not... for example when trying to use it with SHIFT-INSERT... why?

  The INSERT on my X 240 key does not work at all... either alone or jointly with another key like SHIFT - INSERT... Why?

  Press Fn + ESC to activate FnLock on and outside (for example make green LED come on and outside).

  As I explained previously, "Insert" is really "Fn - End" on X 240 keyboard.

  I checked it here, Shift-Insert works fine on X 240:

  • If FnLock is DISABLED, press Fn-shift-end
  
  
  • If FnLock is enabled, press SHIFT - end

  I tested in WordPad.

• My shift key does not work on my MacBook Pro

  My shift key does not work on my MacBook Pro. Can I use capital letters but only if I click on change and it's annoying. When I click on the passage icon shift comes at the top right of my screen to show its on but when I click on the lock button nothing happens as it used to glow green when I clicked it. Before someone says go to the system preferences and go to the modifier keys and restore them or make sure caps lock shift is on lock shift, I've tried that already, I looked it upward and found nothing similar. Help ASAP would be appreciated because it is really annoying

  Hello Gracepullan1,

  I understand that shift key of your MacBook Pro does not respond as before. Fortunately the steps below can help to restore the functionality of the SHIFT key on your Mac.

  1. In the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
  2. On the view menu, choose the speech.
  3. Click on the text to Speech tab.
  4. If "Text Speak selected when you press the button" is enabled, the key or combination of keys set to read the text cannot be used for other purposes, or used for typing text - click on set the key and replace it with a less commonly used key combination (try using the modifier such as SHIFT keys, command) Option and control). Or disable the option "Read the selected text when the key is pressed".
  5. Click the accessibility pane or universal access in system preferences, and then click the keyboard tab.
  6. Make sure the slow keys is off. With slow keys on, you must press a key for a longer period of time so he can be recognized.
  7. In the accessibility pane or universal access, click the mouse and make sure mouse keys is turned off. With the active mouse buttons, you cannot use the numeric keypad to enter numbers - instead the keypad moves the pointer (cursor). (There is an option to activate the MouseKeys to five presses down option, you can disable this option to avoid accidentally activate it.) If the mouse keys is enabled and you are using a keyboard without the numeric keypad or Num Lock function, see Impossible to type while mouse keys is enabled in Mac OS X.
  8. If the function keys on the top row of the keyboard do not work as expected, see Mac OS x: how to change the behavior of the function keys.
  9. If the problem persists, use the keyboard Viewer to help isolate the problem:
     1. Click the component language & text (Mac OS X v10.6) or international (Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier) in system preferences.
     2. Click on the tab Input Sources (or tab Menu entry under Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier version).
     3. Click on the keyboard and the characters 'On' box Viewer checkbox to select (click on the viewer of keyboard "On" checkbox under Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier).
     4. In the entry menu (flag), choose Show Keyboard Viewer.

  
  

• If the keyboard is connected and detected by OS X, the keys you type will highlight in the keyboard Viewer window. Open TextEdit (or any text application) and try to type something using the keys that failed before to see if they highlight in the keyboard Viewer.
• Start up from the Mac OS X installation disc, choose Terminal from the utilities menu and test buttons that did not previously.  If the keys work while started from the install disc, the keyboard works correctly.  How to solve a problem of software allows to isolate the software problem that may be causing the keys to not answer.

• Windows Vista "Tilde" key does not not on laptop

  I have a HP Pavilion laptop. Last week everything worked well. I closed the computer and closed the screen. A week later, when I returned home and restart the computer my tilde on the keyboard key does not work.

  I checked the driver and everything was fine. I ran a check for malware and came up with nothing. I tried using a different user profile and it still didn't work.

  All other work except this key keyboard key. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  The issue could be with the keyboard. Try to connect another keyboard USB (if available) and check if the key works in it.

  If the keyboard is the problem, you need to replace in order to get this to work. You can also try blowing air through fan or something similar to blow off the dust in the keys, cause of dust inside the keys have this problem.

  While OS reinstall too much trouble, if this isn't the hardware problem. I encountered this problem once. But the key doesn't work is not is "Alt".

• The internal keyboard BACKSPACE key does not work

  I have a laptop Toshiba Satellite and the BACKSPACE key does not work.

  He will start work the rare opportunity, but then it just stops working again.
  This happens on everything, including word and internet ect.

  It has been like that for a few weeks now and I turned the laptop and turn off many times.
  Is there a way to fix it myself or I send for repair?

  Please, * don't * tell me:
  Get an external keyboard
  Try it turn on and off
  Just highlight the words and use the delete key - it's annoying to have to do this all the time
  Type carefully and do not make so many mistakes

  Thank you!

  > Please, don't tell me not to:
  > Get an external keyboard

  And why shouldn't t someone recommends you to check the functionality using the external keyboard?

  It s recommended to connect an external keyboard to verify how the BACKSPACE key would work using 2nd external keyboard. In case the back might work properly using USB keyboard, the question is very clear; in such cases its main shortcomings. The key cannot be replaced or changed or fixed. In this case, need to replace the entire keyboard!

  In case the BACKSPACE key does not even using the external keyboard, then this would mean that the internal keyboard controller is faulty and in this case only the replacement motherboard would be useful.

  But to be honest, I think that its simple keyboard failure and a replacement would solve this.

• J K L; And enter the key does not

  I have a Pavilion dv7-6b32us laptop.  Intel CORE i7.  Windows 7.  Nothing added, but the printer drivers and nothing lately.  Yesterday morning keyboard worked fine.  Last night the J K L; were not working.  Clean under the keys.  Then enter key does not.  Have reloaded drivers.  The Enter key on the numeric keypad works ok.  I plugged in a USB keyboard and everything works normally with him.  Any ideas?

  Hey ModernMode,

  That's the spirit! Silver linings FTW!

  You are right. You can replace the keyboard following the same guide who will also give you the part number because they keyboard so you can order it online.

  Alternatively, you can contact HP telephone Support to control the keyboard, or set up the service for them to fix it for you. You can contact HP Technical Support at 1-800-474-6836 in North America. For all other regions click here.

  Thank you for using the HP Forums!

• Satellite C660 - the SHIFT key does not work

  Hello

  I have a problem with a Satellite C660.
  The keyboard, I cannot use the SHIFT key. After you have installed windows everything worked properly, the problem recurs after a few days. Practically the SHIFT key does not work.
  On the one hand I'm the A and the other side works like ESC.

  Help me I'm crazy.
  Thank you.

  Hello

  To me that sounds more like a keyboard failure, I can't imagine that it could be linked to the question of the windows operating system do you have tested an external USB keyboard.

  Please test this. In this case, you can check if it s really a software problem.
  If the USB keyboard works correctly, it means that your internal keyboard is malfunctioning.

• Satellite A200-10N (PSAE3): Fn key does not work after upgrade to vista any time

  After upgrading Vista-Home - Premium--> Vista Ultimate shortcut with the fn keys does not work, for example Fn + F6/7 (brightness).

  New value pack installation has not been successful.
  Moreover, after upgrading the drive to DVD from Toshiba is default, too.
  Who can help?

  I didn't try any update on my A200 but you can try to follow: install Vista using recovery media delivered. When Vista starts for the first time go in Panel and you can find Add/Remove Programs option. Remove all the stuff designed by Toshiba.

  When we remove everything, making Vista upgrade. After finishing Vista upgrade install all the stuff of Toshiba designed by order of specific facilities starting with added value package. Check please the download page if all of these tools and utilities are available.

  As far as I know all the tools and utilities are designed as universal tools and I can't imagine that there is a difference between the version of Vista ultimate or premium tools.

  DVD player is part of the image of the installations only and I can imagine that upgrade installation has changed something, but the upgrade procedure is responsible for this. I don't see any connection to Toshiba.

  As I said I don't have a CD to upgrade, but if I find one I'll try to test it on my Vista (Premium) preinstalled A200-1CR.

  Bye and I hope that you report your experiences with the Vista upgrade again.

• Satelite P50-A-14F - Caps Lock key does not work

  Hi all

  My CAPS LOCK key does not work on my laptop series satellite P50-A-14F. Just realized while writing an email that does not work, so is more or less sudden. Nothing has been spilled on it. Here's what I've checked so far:

  -green light indicating that CAPS is LOCKED turn everything on by pressing the key on the keyboard of the screen
  -Keyboard backlight does not start when I press the button, but it works for the key itself when you press a button any.
  -try a clean boot but no results.

  Thanks a lot for your help.

  Hello

  > Just realized while writing an email that does not work, so is more or less sudden.

  Have you tested the button LOCKING of upper CASE using different software: Web browser, by word or any other editor?
  How about using the external keyboard?

  From my point of view, there are two possible malfunctions: either there is a problem with the software that you use or the internal keyboard works badly simply and in this case, the replacement of keyboard will solve the problem.

  You could test the external USB keyboard. In case the button LOCKING of UPPER USB external keyboard functions, then the internal keyboard needs to be replaced for sure.
