Problem with virtual keyboard.

I just had an update for my alienware alpha. Now there is a virtual keyboard that opens when im in desktop mode. How can I disable it? It is very annoying and in the way. This happens especially when I try to type in the address bar of google chrome.

Edit: The only thing I've done so far regarding the end of the program is to go into the Task Manager and end one of the HiveMinds. He stops occur until I restart.

In Services, I have disabled 'HiveMind Interface Service' and it got rid of him

  • Strange problem with the keyboard

    Hello.
    I have problem with my keyboard. It works with delays. I don't know how to fix it.

    Hello

    What do you mean by working with delays?
    As far as I know, you can change the keyboard settings in the keyboard properties.
    Also, if you think that it s not a fault or parameters of software problem but hardware malfunction, you can try to contact the service agent.
    But before you contact the ASP you should recover the operating system.

  • S205 - problem with the keyboard (right shift key)

    Hello.

    Google couldn't really help me, so I try my luck here

    Two days ago, I met a rather strange problem with the keyboard of my S205 (running Win7 64 bit). For some reason any the right shift key is no longer works as a shift key, but it has the same function as "Alt Gr" key on the right side. FYI: German keyboard. For example, the @ is on the same key as the Q here and normally I have press the AltGr key to type a @. Now the same thing with the right shift key.

    I tried a couple of things already, none of them helped. I have accidentally changed the layout of the keyboard, checked once again in the Control Panel, everything is OK here. No Fn - keys are activated. I tried to plug in an external USB keyboard - on that one, the shift key works fine. The right shift key is the only key that does not work properly. I even tried the keyboard on the screen so I could see which key was pressed when I pressed the SHIFT key and she showed the "Alt Gr" - button is pressed.

    I am open to any suggestion. Thank you

    In case someone might have the same problem - unfortunately I don't have a solution. He solved somehow itself a few months later. Really strange thing, but the key is working again.

  • Rotation of the screen with virtual keyboard.

    Hey all, I am porting a no touch to work in touch devices, but the screen rotation throws me some curves that I can't find a good solution for. I have an image for the background of a screen. In the method of paint background vertical field Manager that holds everything, I check the current resolution and to draw the image appropriate for the portrait to landscape mode. This works well, as long as the virtual keyboard is hidden. I bring up the keyboard (of, say, by clicking in a text field) and the background image does not change (i.e. going from portrait to landscape leaves me with a white bar on the right side of the screen), and the fields have the same width and page layouts. Any advice?

    Ah ha! Long story short, Display.getHeight () returns the height of the screen, but if the virtual keyboard is displayed, its height will not appear in the getHeight() value.  This was causing problems with my orientation detection code.

    The strange display behavior was a result of me being too careful.  I put 'default' in all of my instructions switch during the original no touch development, so that when I don't add different resolutions, he displayed a screen that would be small, but grave not down.  I did not detect a known resolution and continued to display the portrait mode, but only while the keyboard was visible.

  • HP Pavilion x 2-10-n113dx: spell check with virtual keyboard, but none with physical keyboard

    On a HP Pavilion x 2-10-n113dx with the home edition of Windows 10 (64-bit).

    What software/browser used, when it is attached to the keyboard (in desktop mode), I noticed 1) when you use my virtual keyboard it is a bar of spellchecker (which offers options to spelling/words) at the top of the virtual keyboard, but 2) when you use the physical keyboard, it doesn't seem to be any tool/service spell.

    Is there anyway to get the spell using the physical keyboard? When I tap on the physical keyboard, virtual keyboard and its spellchecker bar is hidden.

    Welcome to the Forums of HP Support! This is a great place to find solutions and help our community!

    I understand that you have questions about the Auditors of spelling with the physical keyboard. I'd be happy to help you with that.

    A spell checker does not come standard with the physical keyboard. You can still install a third party. You can search google App 'Spell Checker' or something alone those lines, however, we won't not preinstalled on the laptop to the physical keyboard.

    Please hold me.

  • Problem with a keyboard and a numeric keypad "Fn".

    Hello

    I have been using my keyboard to laptop for a while and I have got used to the layout. The laptop keyboard has a numpad integrated (on the letters 'jkluio789') and it works when the locking digital led is on and I hold down the 'Fn' key When I touch "Fn" and keep NumLock enabled, it lets you type regular letters. This function is very useful for me.
    I recently bought a new keyboard USB Genius LuxeMate i200 with a very similar layout, but the effect of the 'Fn' key is quite opposite. When locking digital led is on and 'Fn' key is pressed it type normal instead of numbers letters, if I release "Fn", he types numbers. If NUMLOCK is off, he wrote regular letters, but is not responding when I press the "Fn".
    Surprisingly everything worked normally on Ubuntu 12.04 with Awesome WM (on the same machine, of course).
    I consider it related problem with Windows drivers. I would be very happy if someone could help me. Furthermore, I use Win7 Professional 64-bit.
    Thank you!!!

    Function keys on a laptop are available/used under this computer keyboard driver laptop manufacturers. Win7 itself does not provide for this

  • Problems with virtual center/vsphere client

    Hello

    We use Vsphere client 4.0.0 build 208111 with Virtual Center Server version and same build.

    I have 2 problems:

    1. I have a virtual machine with only one disc that is shown on 2 different data stores. If I look through the models and virtual computers, I see only 1 vm. If I look through the data warehouse screen, I see it in the store data-002 and 003-store data. If I go to the settings of the virtual machine on the datastore-002 and check the disk, I see the path in the store of data-003.

    How can I fix?

    2. I turned on a windows 2003 vm. I couldn't close it via customer vpshere because the status of VM Tools showed not running. When I logged in the system, he showed OK and then I could close by the customer.

    Do I always login for virtual machine tools to perform?

    Thank you

    Haim defending

    This virtual machine has a CD / ISO mounted?  What happens if you click edit setting on the virtual machine, that says the file of the disk?

    Also, go to the service console and watching a .vmx file, it should say something like

    scsi0:1.fileName = "servername.vmdk"
    

    Then look at the hard, it should point to something like

     VMFS "servername-flat.vmdk"
    
  • Strange problem with the keyboard event listener

    I have a full screen touch app. To close the application, I set an event listener on keyboard for the key "0". I don't want the press user due to some restrictions Alt + F4 key combination. Problems begin when the application loses focus. Here's the code;

    protected function onComplete(event:FlexEvent):void
    {

    this.setFocus ();
    this.addEventListener (KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, trapKeys, true, 0, true);

    }

    private void trapKeys(e:KeyboardEvent):void {}

    If (e.keyCode == 96) {}
    This.Close ();
    }

    Else if (e.keyCode == 48) {}
    This.Close ();
    }

    }

    When the user change the screen to a different with Alt + TAB application, or any other combination of keys flex app loses focus and does not work when he turns back to my app "0". How can I solve this problem?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi, Ahmed.

    I have absolutely no problem with the solution you are trying to set up - you use mode full-screen interactive mode of keyboard?

    Please consider:

    on full add keyboard listener

    protected function applicationCompleteHandler(event:FlexEvent):void

    {

    this.stage.addEventListener (KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, trapKeys);

    };

    //

    protected function applicationActivateHandler(event:AIREvent):void

    {

    If (this.stage)

    {

    switch the State to display full-screen when activated

    If (this.stage.displayState! = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN_INTERACTIVE)

    {

    this.stage.displayState = StageDisplayState.FULL_SCREEN_INTERACTIVE;

    };

    };

    };

    //

    private var exitHandled:Boolean = false;

    on NUMBER_0 | NUMPAD_0 exit-close

    protected function trapKeys(event:KeyboardEvent):void

    {

    If ((event.keyCode is Keyboard.NUMBER_0

    || event.keyCode is Keyboard.NUMPAD_0)

    (& this.exitHandled == false)

    {

    exitHandled = true;

    this.stage.removeEventListener (KeyboardEvent.KEY_DOWN, trapKeys);

    This.Close ();

    };

    }

    (Note: applicaton of the events 'applicatonComplete' and "applicationActivate" are routed to over managers)

  • . Corrupt Windows files, problems with fan keyboard keys,

    I had problems with windows 8 for some time. It does not load properly more and takes time. I ran the sfc scan and received a message he had corrupted files that could not be repaired. I also noticed a ticking sound from my hard drive. I ran a repair for the reader and found no problem. These files would be the source of the noise ticking? Also, I have a problem with my fan. Is a kind of grinding noise when the system is turned on. I cleaned up and it is a fairly new system, so I do not think that it should be replaced. What is a software problem? And is there a way to repair the keys that are unresponsive outside replacement. The guy who cleaned the fan forgot something in the screwdriver system directly or very loose keys does not. I removed, but the keys do not work

    Hello Pierre,.

    Thanks for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I understand that you have with the corrupted in the computer and other multiple issues in the computer files. Don't worry, we're here to help when fixing these issues.

    But I would like to know some more information on this issue to help you better.

    1. What troubleshooting utility did you use?
    2. When you get the ticking sound?
    3. Is that when you use an application or program?
    4. You get an error message while, key board is not working properly?
    5. What is the brand and model of the computer?

    In the meantime, please follow the following suggestions to solve the problem.

    Corrupted files may be one of the reasons for the system has as many questions together. So, you can try to manually fix the corrupted computer files and check if that helps. Follow the link below to do the same.

    Use the System File Checker tool to repair missing or corrupted system files

    (See the procedure below: how replace manually a file system damaged by a known good copy of the file)

    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929833/en-us

    And for problems with sounds from the hard disk:

    1. Noises may result from problems mounting. This is due to a high frequency in the mounting material vibration, or a drive failure.
    2. Repeated and regular, tap, grind or beep.
    3. Remove the side panel of the cover of your case and do operate the machine with the lid side for 30 to 60 minutes see if the noise subsides. If the noise disappears, your hard drive is probably overheating, causing the noise.

    You try to run the disk check and see if that helps in the setting of these noises and to detect if the hard drive is damaged or not. Follow the steps below to do the same thing:

    Run the disk check to find and fix errors on the disc.

    (a) click Start, type cmd, right-click on cmd , and then click run as administrator.

    (b) at the prompt, type chkdsk /f /r and press to enter.

    For more information on 'Check a drive for errors' please visit this link:

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/check-a-drive-for-errors

    Important: When running chkdsk on the drive hard if bad sectors are found on the disk hard when chkdsk attempts to repair this area so all available data on this risk be lost.
