  • USB keyboard does not work after Windows 7 SP1

    I recently installed SP1 on my computer running Windows 7 Pro.  Everything was fine before SP1, but after installation, the keyboard is constantly up - does not not intermittently.  I noticed that SP1 seems to have updated kbdclass.sys so I wonder if that caused.

    The USB keyboard is inadmissible for up to 30 seconds when you try to connect to my PC locked.  Also, once connected, the USB port sometimes emits a sound like something to be connected or disconnected.  Meanwhile, the keyboard is again irreceivable.

    It's to the point where I think of getting a new computer.  I tried to uninstall the drivers USB, reboot and let the computer to reinstall.  I also ran MalwareBytes and Anti-Rootkit, looking for malware.

    Any ideas would be appreciated.  It has no other USB connected to my machine except the keyboard and mouse.

    Thank you

    Welcome to the Microsoft Community Forum.

    Thanks for the sharing of information on the issue.

    • Have you tried to use the USB keyboard on a different USB port?
    • What is the brand and model of the keyboard?
    • The problem is specific to the keyboard?

    Please try using a different port and see if it works.

    Also, try to connect the same keypad USB on another computer and check.

    Also I suggest you to try the following method to resolve the same.

    Sounds like keyboard problem.
    The operating system uses the pilot to clean keyboard and generally it s not necessary to reinstall the special keyboard driver.
    But one thing is really strange; the yellow exclamation mark in Device Manager

    Eventually it s only a problem of software in such a case, a system restore can be useful...

    Have you checked if the keyboard works in the BIOS?
    Do this!

    If the keyboard does not work in the BIOS, then you will need to replace the internal keyboard with the new.

  • Key ESC Office keyboard does not work on desktop running Windows 7 Pro 64 x

    Key ESC Office keyboard does not work on desktop running Windows 7 Pro 64 x

    Now, it's a boring, which several other users have reported under different threads. Because I couldn't find a post with quite similar symptoms, I made my own topic.

    I am running Windows 7 Professional 64 x on an old one (Intel Quad-Core, 4 GB RAM, 524 GB HDD - in case, for reasons unknown to me, someone needs to know it...) , DellXPS system. Not more than a few weeks ago my home button keyboard unresponsive on this system.

    I did a lot of troubleshooting, but these measures have been carried out:
    * Tested keyboard on the other system, touch ESC WORKS on the other system
    * Reinstalled keyboard and USB drivers on the XPS system, ESC key does NOT WORK on the XPS system
    * Connected to a never-before-used USB keyboard, ESC key does NOT WORK on the XPS system
    * Opened and cleaned the keyboard, tested, Escape key WORKS, Don't DO NOT WORK on the XPS system
    * Tested in various applications: Desktop (Esc will close the start menu), Photoshop, Vegas, Notepad, games full screen OpenGL,Escape key does NOT WORK on the XPS system
    * Google for possible solutions, none found...

    Note: Highlights show where the ESC key does not work. I am troubled by the XPS system.

    In case you missed it my list of troubleshooting steps, the ESC key works on another computer of Windows 7 system.

    I have to still garble my self through the registry in the hope that someone might have an idea of the steps to follow before I lose a day to see the things that I honestly know squat. Please help if you can; What could be the issue/common application that separates this key in the Windows world and how could I solve this problem?

    Thank you in advance!

    For reference,.
    No major changes have been made since the keyboard unresponsive with the exception of:
    Updates to FireFox (including modules Ad-Block Plus, NoScript, which have also been updated).
    Windows Update
    A 10.x MB World of Warcraft patch/update on a keyboard AFTER week unresponsive

    Already installed the patches StarCraft II and World of Warcraft, which none touched my keyboard to my knowledge. I finished almost all of StarCraft II and had no problems...

    I know it's a bit old, but I was living the question myself.  Thought I had found the problem and it was fixed but then it happened again.  Came to find out (by closing a program and test the ESC key) it's because Photoshop.

    With the help of Photoshop, which could match the case you mention.  Not only that but I did a search ('ESC' does not not Photoshop) and stumbled on some answers/solutions workaround for it.  One is to use SHIFT + ESC ESC does not work.

    Hope this helps someone.  I fell it using my original research ("Windows 7" BSE "ESC" keyboard does not) and know that others are likely to see.  If you have not already learn the cause, in the year + since your original message, then voila.

  • Key on the keyboard does not work in firefox box when you type in the web site, but it works everywhere else?

    Key on the keyboard does not work in firefox box when you type in the web site, but it works everywhere else?

    Try Firefox SafeMode to see how it works there.

    A way of solving problems, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • You can open the mode without failure of Firefox 4.0 + by pressing the SHIFT key when you use the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • Or use the Help menu option, click restart with the disabled... modules while Firefox is running.

    Do not choose anything at the moment, just use 'continue in safe mode.

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the shortcut of Firefox (without the Shift key) to open it again.

    If it's good in Firefox Safe mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one.

    http://support.Mozilla.com/en-us/KB/troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes

    Can be caused by an add-on to the AVG.

    When find you what is causing that, please let us know. It might help others who have this problem.

  • Microsoft MultiMedia 1.1 wireless keyboard does not work - Windows 7 64 bit

    Keyboard does not work.  Does not enter any data.  Battery is good, the wireless signal is good.  Tested on another computer and does not work there either.  Tried to uninstall, reinstall and checked for driver updates. Original installation disk is incompatible with Windows 7.  Message says device is working, but the keyboard is "dead."

    Appreciate the suggestions, pls.  TX

    Not a good sign that it does not work on another computer. Go to control panel > devices and printers. If the keyboard doesn't appear as an installed device, think of it as dead and buried.

    Windows identifies devices of small IC boards inside the devices and guess they are ok. Windows cannot do is determine if the keyboard membrane makes contact with the small IC Board...

    Hi, thanks for the response. I have a keyboard and shortcuts will turn off. I'm not 100% sure, but I think I did run by pressing Windows key + LeftShift. I did a few tests now and there is something to deal with the Windows key + Fn (dell laptop). After pressing that firefox combinations see keyboard. WinKey + LeftShift operate again. Thanks anyway!

  • Keyboard does not work on my T650-1MC Satellite

    Keyboard does not work no more at all. Instead of this, continuously + is typed in a text field (or insert permanently, if NUMLOCK is turned off). A USB keyboard works very well (keys CAPSLOCK on the USB keyboard allows to activate the light on the laptop keyboard), but the continuous + s persist.

    ALT + tab does not work, and clicking on stacked items on the system tray or. Windows just appear and disappear again.

    The touchpad works always intended to lead the mouse around, but the "tap to click on ' and 'slide your finger on the edge of the mouse wheel' functions no longer work.
    Thx for any help

    This model of laptop is not known to me, but after reading your ad I think the keyboard is defective and must be replaced. I mean what else you can do about it.

    Try to get the new keyboard and replace it. After that it all will again be OK.

  • Keyboard does not work properly

    Hello

    I had trouble getting my laptop satellite to initialize. Recovery disks & pressing F keys weren't working so I decided to open the laptop to see if there are any loose connections. To my surprise, the laptop seems to work again once I had the USB keys and put back them in! Unfortunately, before that I did, I opened the keyboard and peeked inside.

    When I booted up and tried to use the keyboard keys half of their work and the other half seem to think that they represent two other keys for example if I type the letter 'E' I get '3' and '-' as a whole. After 5-10 minutes the entire keyboard will become totally unresponsive until I restart again. Of course, I think I've done something here because this problem since I opened the bottom of the keyboard. This could be a hardware failure I have caused or is anyway that this issue can be resolved without replacing anything?

    Thank you very much

    Hi Tom

    Theoretically, it might be just a connection lost between the keyboard and the motherboard, but I'm afraid, it can be a serious problem of m.
    Maybe you have damaged the connector of the keyboard cable or something similar, and not the keyboard does not work properly.

    I think the keyboard needs to be replaced to check if only this part is affected
