My keyboard will stop all of a sudden without reason.

Original title: strange keypad lock

Every so often (3 times today, which could be a record) my keyboard just stop accepting the input. My mouse will continue to function. It seems to be meaningless with where I type, but usually it's on a web application. The only solution I found to make it work again is to restart. I use Vista 64 bit and MS natural 4000 ergonomic keyboard. What is the cause? Is there a solution? Thank you!

  • Three XP laptops to work keep losing all settings 'Favorite networks' all of a sudden without reason.

    My laptop is running Vista and has been fine, but we have three laptops on XP that suddenly stopped connecting to the wireless router.

    I noticed that the list of connections (there is more than one saved on them, and they're all gone, so I don't think it's a problem with the router) keep 'Favorite networks' in the process of disappearance, but I can't find any results online where people have suffered the same problems so I could not find a solution for this at all.

    It started one day last week.

    When I try manually add network again, press 'ok' and then reopen preferred networks, it will sometimes go away already.

    When I restart it retains the settings sometimes and other times it doesn't but we cannot spend all day raise them until they work.

    Any ideas at all?

    Thank you very much.

    I must point out that the computers are not connected to a server (just the router which is the same as it has always been). There is no hardware or changes to the software I know, but it could have been a Windows update a few days before. Since I tried to remove this update with a system restore, but it has not solved the problem. I installed MSE on all three computers and date and the display of the green box with a white tick.

    Thank you!

  • No matter what game I play, sometimes it will go right on my desktop without reason.

    * Original title: any game I play...

    There is no problem, the game, but sometimes it will go right on my desktop without reason.

    Any suggestions?

    If the drivers are up to date, and there is nothing in the history of the reliability or the event logs, so I don't know in this case. But as a test, you can try to choose a theme that does not use AERO (i.e. turn off aero) and see if the games work then ok. Its pretty quick change and test and I read in an old post of vista that this didn't help anyway in this case.

    There is also the old favorite to try to run the game in a "clean boot" to see if it happens then. https://support.Microsoft.com/en-us/KB/929135 not leave as the clean boot no matter what happens, only use it to test and restore normal boot later.

    I hope someone will have a better idea.

  • Its stopped all of a sudden

    I listened to the music when all of a sudden I heard a noise and the noise stopped. I tried to update the drivers for the computer, but nothing has worked. I also tried a system restore, but that did not work as well. It is said that happening is sound but nothing comes out of the headphones. I don't know if I have a sound card, but is it possible that it is broken? I only had this computer for about 1 month. Thank you

    Hello

    -What is the brand and model of the computer?

    I suggest you to uninstall and reinstall the sound drivers on the computer manufacturer site.

    1. click on Start and then RUN.

    2 type devmgmt.msc in the RUN prompt and press to enter.

    3. This will open the Device Manager window.

    4 browse the audio controller.

    5. right click on the audio drivers see you there, and then click Uninstall.

    6. you may need to uninstall the drivers completely from your computer, check the box and press ok.

    7 restart the computer so that the changes are applied.

    Once the computer restarts, windows tries automatically to download and install the audio drivers.

    I suggest to find the latest audio drivers in the computer manufacturer's website and install it instead of the generic Windows drivers that are provided through Windows updates.

    Also, follow the steps proposed by John Rubdy in http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_7-hardware/the-sound-has-stopped-working-all-of-a-sudden/22b9f3df-61d4-4d3b-a7bd-e51dd65d5d77

  • All of a sudden without effect on the adjustment brush

    Hello.

    I use Photoshop CS5 with the latest Camera Raw.

    My problem is that all of a sudden, the adjustment brush doen't work. All functions still ok, but it has no effect when you use the brush to clarify or darken an area. I think it must be something that I pressed by mistake or so.

    I'm very desperate. Please someone help me before I have to reinstall the product again. Thank you very much

    Ensure that the flow and the density of the sliders are greater than zero (see screenshot below). In addition, activating / disabling "Show mask" is useful when you are trying to see if adjustment is applied, especially when the adjustment slider is close to zero.

    Hi there champrider,

    It sounds like your computer guard stop on its own, and the only way you can get it to come is to unplug for a while. If you get some sort of error when the computer restarts, take a look at this article:

    OS X El Capitan: If your Mac restarts and a message

    If this isn't the case, then I suggest starting in safe mode to delete a few caches as well as system-level to check and fix if necessary startup disk.

    OS X El Capitan: start in safe mode

    If the problem persists then I would then reset the SMC on your computer:

    Reset the management system (SCM) controller on your Mac.

  • KIRA turning off suddenly without reason

    About 2 months a go, I bought a KIRAbook. In the past two weeks, he began to stop at random and without apparent reason.

    First of all, it happened while I was just using it. I've been so the battery must have been low, but once connected to high battery always quiet.

    It happened when I close and set mode 'sleep'. When I go to use again once it has powered off.

    It happened the other day when I pulled out the charger (full load), several times I would branch back, turn turn it on then pull the charger once again, it stops.

    But it doesn't all the time and I can't find the trigger for her.
    The laptop isn't hot and doesn't seem to be an indicator of how long its been on.

    It will usually take some time before it will allow me to re - turn on my laptop as well.

    Hello

    On the virtual path that is not easy to tell what the problem is somehow I feel there could be a problem with electronic control gear.

    Problem is you don t have the opportunity to test its operation without battery and with AC power only.
    In my opinion, your machine needs to be checked properly and it can be done by the Toshiba service provider in your country.
    Please, visit http://www.toshiba.eu/innovation/generic/ASP_SUPPORT/. There you can find the addresses and telephone numbers of the aspic in your country. Contact the nearest ASP, explain the situation and ask for help.

    It would be nice if you can send a feedback after check laptop.

  • All VM to restart without reason time Saturdays

    Hey guys

    I have an IBM x 3650 M2 server running VMware vSphere 4 4.1 ESXi hypervisor.

    I run 5 X vm (all the Server 2008 - DC + TS + Exchange + SQL 3CX) on this subject and he had thankfully been browsing until recently.

    I had a hard drive go in all about raid 5 weeks ago. Who replaced by IBM and the RAID set rebuilt ok. Everything was stable.

    It was time for me to run a few updates, so 3 weeks (on Friday) I upgraded Exchange 2010 SP3 with rollup 6. Also, I installed the latest version of 2 X Application on the TS gateway and installed the latest updates of windows on the 3CX server.

    The 3CX Server disliked updates and after restarting, the NIC would not connect. A few reboots, then it was OK.


    I got everything done around 06:00 this morning. Everything worked well, Went to sleep and woke up to a notification indicating that the virtual machine has restarted at 14:45 this Saturday in the afternoon.

    I checked the IBM host and which had not restarted, no errors in the logs.

    I checked the VMware Console, just had a restart notification in events. I checked the VM logs from the data store and he just said that the virtual machine is restarted.

    Everything seemed ok, so I just a random reboot.

    However, next Saturday at 14:45 exactly the same thing happened, at the same time correct!

    I waited a week and enough course at 14:45 the same thing Saturday.

    I am at a loss as to what is the cause. I couldn't find all the scheduled tasks that might make and if it was material I thought that the IBM host must be rebooted.

    It's more complicated. Someone has seen something like this before? Do you guys think might happen?

    Kind regards

    Aaron

    So, I finally solved the problem of restarting!

    One of the batteries died in the ups this week while we needed to replace it. We decided not to put a new UPS, since then no restart! If the former ups must have been a bit unstable and cause the host to reboot. So weird it was the exact same every week.

    I can now sleep easier!
