  Hi Kdooley,

  Are a. When you facing this problem?

  B. using a laptop or a desktop computer?

  C. is - what happens with specific applications?

  D. don't you plug a different keyboard to check?

  Method 2

  Try to change the rate of repeat on the keyboard and check if it helps.

  1. Open keyboard by clicking the Start button, clicking on Control Panel, hardware and sound, tap keyboard.
  2. Under character repeat, move the repeat rate slider to the left to keyboard characters repeat more slowly, or to the right to make them repeat faster.

  If the problem persists, then it might be a problem with the keyboard itself.

• Error blue screen STOP: 0x0000007e. I powercycled the sys, unable to choose for sure (keys do not work when you try to select a mode) sys is trying just to go back to the blue screen. Help, please

  STOP: 0x0000007e (0xc000001d, ox8537008 0xba4c3508 0xba4c3204) and the system would not come to the top.

  Error blue screen STOP: 0x0000007e. I powercycled the sys, unable to choose for sure (keys do not work when you try to select a mode) sys is trying just to go back to the blue screen. Help, please

  Symptoms: Booted computer, loaded the raid drivers and showed at the start screen XP for half a second then to BSOD with a Stop error Code 0x0000007E - see also a lot of users (0xC0000001D, 0 x-, etc.) as well.

  Solution:

  1 boot from your Windows XP CD and start the recovery console. You may need to press F6 while RC loads in order to load the SATA drivers. you will have a prompt c:\WINDOWS to the console.

  2. type: CD $NtUninstallKB977165$ \spuninst (it's the update, I had to uninstall to get out of the boot loop, other updates can be uninstalled by changing the name of the directory to $NtUninstallKBCODE$, where KBCODE is the code KB)

  3. type: BATCH spuninst.txt

  4. type: exit

  Don't forget to configure your system to boot from the HD before resuming. I hope this helps. Saved me a lot of hassle today.

• Dv6-6C50US, tone of keyboard and keys do not work when you press on consecutively

  Dv6-6c50US - windows 7

  When I hit a key consecutively, it does only once. Example: I type 'business', it appears as "business".

  Same case with keys, including the arrow keys.

  I tried different options with character repeat in Control Panel, but no use.

  Also, I hear beeps keys which I never heard in my laptop earlier.

  Not sure how to fix this problem.

  Help, please.

  Hello

  Here's a thing worth it.

  From the windows control panel, open the ease of access Center and click on the link "make the keyboard easier to use.  If there is a check mark in the box beside "Turn Sticky Keys" or "Turn on filter keys", delete them and then click on apply to make the change to see if that solves the problem.

• Camera FireWire not recognized unless you turn on after pc started.

  If my Firewire camera is lit in front of my pc, then it does not get recognized in windows XP pro unless I turn the camera off then on again. Any ideas? I tried this on 2 different pc running windows XP pro sp3.

  Once recognized, can I switch the camera on and off as many times I want and the pc still recognizes. It's only a problem when turned on before the pc started.

  Any ideas?
  Thank you

  Hello
  I have the latest drivers installed. I contacted the manufacturer of the camera and they made sure that I got the last.

  I found another pc, I tried the camera on had no such problem, so guessed it was down to my hardware.

  To make life simpler, I have attached a firewire hub to my pc to save me from climbing under my desk whenever I started. This seems to have solved the problem! I have to unplug my camera to get my pc to post it since!

  See you soon

• WEP encryption key do not forget when you restart the Equium M50-244

  I use a laptop Equium M50-244, with a BT Home Hub 7838 wireless router. Almost everytime I turn on the laptop it has no wireless connection. So I have to go to control panel, network connections and that he can find a new connection.

  I would then type the key to encryption WEP number twice to get a new connection.
  This is obviously a long procedure, so I need to get the laptop to recognize the encryption key and save it for the next time I turn on.

  I am running Windows XP Home Edition with Service Pack 2 and a Norton Anti Virus and Firewall.

  Any help would be appreciated

  Hello

  I agree with Louis. Your WLAN cards support WPA encryption and, if possible, you should use it.

  Anyway: try to Setup WLAN to use Windows settings and set WEP password we remind for your WLAN. I have the set up on a lot of laptops different and after choosing the publicly traded WLAN password has already been set and the only thing that must be done is to click on the Connect button.

• HP Color Laserjet 4700n does not print unless you press the button "Refresh" on the printer...

  Hello

  Trying to support a printer down in our Australian Branch, so I can't see the printer, what users say just.  This problem occurs for everyone down in this office (about 20 users).

  It is connect via LAN to everyone and it does not seem printer for everyone until they go up to the printer and press the button "Refresh" on the printer itself.  It's a HP 4700n color jaserjet printer.  I got them to recycle the power on the printer leave unplugged for about 5 minutes and also tried to reset service print spooler on a user's computer and the server, but none of these options helped.  I also tried to remove and time the printer to a computer to users, but that did not help either.

  Any suggestions?

  Thank you!

  Hi, thanks to send additional information.  It really helped.

  The following is taken from the User Guide which can be found here:

  http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/CoreRedirect.jsp?redirectReason=DocIndexPDF&prodSeriesId=473038&targetPage=http%3A%2F%2Fbizsupport1.austin.hp.com%2Fbc%2Fdocs%2Fsupport%2FSupportManual%2Fc00366053%2Fc00366053.pdf

  The message that users see is a Media fast charge.

  On Page 198, there is a section on the message they see.  It also includes measures to address the message.

  

  It is likely that the tray is already loaded with media of the letter otherwise, they would get another error after pressing the button to check twice.  However, media guides are very likely out of position and causing the printer to think that the letter is not loaded.

  For step 2 to verify the media guides see page 97: "setting up trays of food.

  When you load paper into tray 2 and have the media guides correctly aligned, after the closing of the tray of the printer, you should see a prompt saying that plain letter was loaded in tray 2.  This prompt is to change the type, size is automatically detected by the tray.  You see a different size than the letter when the tray is closed, which means that the guides are not good position and should be adjusted.

  You can also check which think that the printer is loaded by accessing the paper handling menu as described on page 98.

  Once you have the printer thinking that plain letter is installed in tray 2, the jobs of users requesting letter tray 2 should not more the prompt.

  What happens if you check that the guides are in the right position, but you don't always get a letter in the status bar?  It is an indication that the size of detection does not work correctly.

  Check the guide position tray holder should solve the problem. It may have been moved from its position when the new document has been loaded.  If this does not resolve the problem, please after return.  Let me know the size of the media and type that the printer thinks is in tray 2, the driver that you are using as well as the driver for the work of the user settings.  This will allow me to try additional things at the office.

• HTML/JS app does not work unless you run as administrator

  I created an Air (air 3.1) with JS/HTML application and I am compiling under Windows 7 64-bit, using the Air SDK 3.1. Self-signed cert.

  It seems, if I run the air application without selecting 'Run as administrator', it load the initial window but no other event seems to be captured - clicks of the mouse in the app do nothing for example and its clear from the Windows Task Manager, that none of the resources cpu/mem I expect to use are.

  If I run it as administrator, everything is hunky dory.

  Of course, I don't want to educate windows users to run as administrator, then how it works by default without administrator privileges. Is this something to do with the lack of good cert?

  I think that's the problem.  On Windows Vista with impatience, the application (usually program files) directory requires permissions for writing.  Instead of using File.applicationDirectory, try File.applicationStorageDirectory.

• Some keyboard keys do not work occasionally, some require hard urgent

  Sometimes my keys work well, as now. Other times, without having to reboot, some keys like R, Y, 5, 0, do not work when I press them. Sometimes if I press the R key and Y or press them hard, with more force, the R and the Y will appear. Other times, repeatedly tap the R and the is still not get as they appear.

  This problem has occurred, it seems, shortly after I disassembled my laptop. What could cause this problem? I think that maybe it's one of the wiring connectors that connect the keyboard to the main unit and not a problem with the individual keys. Should I restart my computer, disassemble the keyboard and attach, internal and 3 cables, it would affect?

  What should I try to fix this? Its very annoying having to use the on-screen keyboard to type the keys Y and R when they cease to work temporarily on the keyboard.

  It is not easy to give you the correct answer to your question.
  Initially we don t know what model of laptop you have and how old it was.
  In my opinion the keyboard connector has nothing to do if some keys must be desperate.

  To be honest, I think that you need a new keyboard.
  Only by using the new keyboard and test features, you will find answer to your question.
