MY OLD KEYBOARD MICROSOFT has the OLD SOCKET of TYPE PS/2 I USED AN adapter to convert the type usb plug into the computer __new... no joy

tried loading new driver... was 'already installed' no joy

Hello

Could be a bad adapter.

Panel - Manager of peripherals - keyboard - click on - uninstall - After Reboot.

See if that gets to recognize the keyboard.

Try other USB slots (only 2/4 are powered, so you may need to use on people).

/ Settings (BIOS/CMOS) often F2 as you start so watch the display - Legacy USB
Devices - Enable. (Yes I know that this can't happen with a nonfunctional keyboard-
kind of a catch 22).

I hope this helps and happy holidays!

    My old iphone 6s is completely broken, it does not or registry that it is connected when plugged into a computer.

    You can always try the Recovery Mode, little to lose at this point. If it doesn't, I suggest taking it to an Apple Store for testing.

    Recovery mode:

    Turn off your iOS device.

    Plug charge cable to the computer only (not to the device yet).

    Open iTunes on your computer.

    Hold the button to power on your device and do not let go.

    Plug the cable into the device while keeping the power button.

    Wait for the computer to detect the device and wait that he eat.

    Restore as New first, then restore sauvegardΘ if you wish.

  • a call from a guy that he was from microsoft and the computer has a virus

    My friend got a call from a guy that he was from microsoft and that they had tried to him (by pop-up texts) she had a virus message. He was called to help set and wanted remote access, but would not give him any id to verify that it was legitimate, including any phone number or email address. He rang back the next day for a new attempt. He him verbally ordered a little in his computer saying that it had received these warnings pop up, but it will not allow access just in case. We believe that it is a scam. are us correct? and she inadvertently gave them access to certain form eventhough she has not allowed their remote access. He also could not give all the names of what virus he had which sounds too suspicious if they could detect the threat etc...

    Calls unrequested telephone of this nature are almost always a common scam. Do not let them give any info, do not give access to your PC, not give them all the money and do not go to all the websites that they suggest. One moment.

  • Can I use my old pine 30 dock Ipod speakers for my computer? Is there an adapter that would allow me to plug into the power speaker on my desk?

    I like the sound of my ipod dock better than the speakers external computer. I'm looking for a way to use the dock AS my computer speakers.

    The iPod speaker-dock accessory has an auxiliary audio input.  It looks like the headphone jack of the iPod.  Or, it may have a pair of "RCA" (red/whtle) connectors, for audio input.  In both cases, you can use the audio cable to connect your computer to the speaker-dock.  For example, if it has an auxiliary input, you can use a cable like this (assuming that your computer has a headphone jack for audio output)

  • My HP PSC 1200 is plugged into my computer and the computer says I need to turn it on, it has power to it, the power light is on. Can someone help me?

    I have a new HP computer.  It is around the age of 6 months.  My printer a HP PSC 1200 worked with her.  all of a sudden the printer does not work.  The USB cable is connected and so is power.  I have a green light on my printer, but it still doesn't work.  Can someone help me?

    If a connected USB device is not visible on the PC to which it is connected, there are three places to look for trouble: on the device, the connection between the camera and the PC and the PC.  First, try the device on another PC.  If you know that island same symptoms occur, is the printer or the cable.  Try a different cable.  If this does not work, you need a new printer or your printer needs maintenance.  If it works on the other PC, you know that the problem is your PC.  Try a different USB port.  If it still does not work, try another device on the USB port.  This should give you enough information to determine the likely source of the problem.

  • Why microsoft has so many technical problems with the Gaming area?

    The site is down a few times more than 72 hours in a row.  There was opportunities, that the site went down every other day for a week.   The page that opens after the servers have been can be improved.  Error messages its users the impression that this is a technical error with their equipment.  This only promotes the frustrations of users because they spend hours trying to solve a problem that never existed.  Players are NEVER kept in the loop. Updates on Facebook are not and some who are regular users of the game area are forced to explore other sites of games because of that.  Microsoft has the best games around.  It would be a shame if they lose all their followers to a competitor.

  • Keyboard Microsoft Wireless 1000 and a Microsoft wireless optical mouse 2000 - my computer does not start.

    Hello.

    I have Microsoft Wireless 1000 keyboard and an optical mouse wireless Microsoft 2000, they worked fine on my old computer with XP.

    Now, I bought an Acer Predator G3620 with Windows 7 and my computer does not start. He stops and beeps when it says "Press DEL to enter setup", this continues to the repeat. When I use the wired Acer keyboard and mouse the computer starts normally.

    When I inserted the original CD with the drivers, it gave an error of compatibility with this version of windows. So I downloaded the drivers and everything seemed fine. But when I start the computer (or reboot) I have to disconnect the transmitter/receiver or the computer stops and beeps.

    Once the computer is turned on, I can reconnect the transceiver, and it works fine.

    Find it me hard to believe that it has to bee like that.

    I have to buy a new keyboard and mouse?

    Brgs,

    Robert

    Go into the BIOS of the ACER and set it for legacy USB, USB mouse, USB keyboard, or along those lines...

    Then, go here for the drivers...

  • Keyboard shortcuts for the PCV-KB1P/UB keyboard for a desktop PCV-RZ16G

    Shortcut keys keyboard (S1, S2, S3, S4, S5 and S6) do not work. When you press on, opens a blank Microsoft Word or Excel document. After 4 hours of research (particularly on esupport.sony.com), I can't find any guidance or file whatsover to repair the shortcut keys. Looking for the model number on the Sony site led to "no results". Putting aside my frustration with Sony, y at - it a file or update or another method that I can use to assign functions to these shortcut keys? Even more strange is that the keyboard works well otherwise, but the name of it is not yet listed under the hardware in Control Panel. Keyboards are listed, the available shortcut keys seem to have appropriate functions that are associated with, but then I don't have one of these keyboards in use. The keyboard comes with the computer has a sticker on the underside that says it's Model PCV-KB1/UB.

    I have 6 CD recovery came with the computer, and I shopped without finding any solution to this problem. Advice would be appreciated as Sony seems totally inefficient.

    Hello and thanks for your message.
    VCP-RZ16G was released in the summer of 2002.
    There is no "keyboard driver" as the keyboard uses the XP driver.

    Any more recent than spring unit 2005 uses 'VAIO Central' to control the shortcut keys. Units before 2005 had most of the utility programs grouped in the program «VAIO Help» base The only way to recover this and other basic utilities was either a simple windows restore point providing it is only a question of settings, or use the recovery CD and return the unit to its original factory image. (do not forget to save your documents first)

    just to make sure that we are referring to the same shortcut keys
    Mail of S1
    S2 Internet
    Music of S3
    Photo of S4
    S5 video
    S6 aid (aid VAIO)

    There is no other option available before 2005 from office for the restoration of the utility other than to reinstall the whole image if VAIO help is missing. (again once remember to backup your documents) just install the Application CD will not have a 'utility of the quick access key' listed for this system.

  • Why Microsoft has this policy for deactivation of 90 days in place?

    So, I catch me on the terms of service of my mail yesterday, and he said that Microsoft has the right to deactivate my account if it is not used for more than 90 days at the most. This alarm really me, because even if I connect you regularly I always wonder: ' what happens if I'm ever in a situation where I do not have access to a computer or the internet for more than 90 days? The thought had crossed my mind and I'm sure that people can have this situation, even if it's not likely.

    And what will happen to all the accounts linked to my ID?

    That really troubled me since I read it, so I just thought that I would like to express my opinion and also ask why it is like that. (P.S. I'm kind of really new on these forums, and I'm really sorry if it does not belong here, but I think it does.)
    I also searched it and found nothing, and when I try to refine my search, I see that it is not a bar live windows upstairs.

  • Error loading operating system after shutting down the computer because of the high operating temperature

    I decided to re - install Windows XP Pro x 86 on my wife's computer. So I went into the BIOS to make sure that the CD/DVD drive has been configured to start first, and then I inserted the DVD and then restarted the computer.

    Now, the XP disc started normally. I installed XP to the point where I deleted all previous partitions and then created a new. Windows then displays the warning that the computer would not be able to boot up to what XP finished installing. I guess that's because start-up files have been deleted when I deleted all previous partitions during the installation.

    Right after I clicked on enter the warning message, the computer shuts down. No! So, I try to re-boot, in the hope of all simply continue with installing XP, but instead, the computer will display a message indicating that the computer has been stopped because of the high operating temperature. I then go ahead and get a message saying: "Error loading operating system."

    No matter what I do, I can't go any further. I can't get into BIOS or anything. If I try the F10 key (or whatever the keys are), I get a beep. It does not properly respond to my entries.

    I don't think that the high temperature operation destroyed all components. The computer stopped several times in the past. Furthermore, it would not be part of integrated security if Microsoft enabled the computer reach a destructive temperature before stopping. I think that the problem occurred during installation was interrupted just after that previous partitions have been deleted.

    BT, I don't know what to do now. Loooking for suggestions.
