Problems with the Thinkpad E560 keyboard/keypad and mouse mats

I bought my Thinkpad around time of December-January, and since there has been some recurring problems.

On the one hand, with the keyboard, sometimes some of the keys stick: say I'm going to hold the S key and then release, sometimes it keeps acting as if he is still in detention. In addition, the entire keypad has stopped working; at this time last week, it worked perfectly fine, I used to use the calculator, lock the buttons on the internet Explorer and file at the top of the key all the time, but one day they just stopped working. The numbers themselves, as well as the NumLock key and others, also do not work. I tried to reboot, perform analysis, installation of the drivers and all sorts, but without success.

Finally, with the mouse pad, sometimes sections of it will stop working. As I type this, I can use the right side of my mousepad to move the mouse, but the left side does not work. Sometimes it will change, with the center of the mouse pad does not, while the very right and left mouse do. Usually reinstalling a driver or reboot the computer solves this problem, but it keeps happening and is very frustrating.

This laptop is a few months old only, I'm not too happy with the problems that keep popping up, and I hope that someone can be useful!

Thank you

My mistake! I had completely missed the BIOS update, I installed and fixed this problem. I found it here, if anyone else has similar problems

  • I have a problem with the previous results of LEDs and indicators of compensation

    I'm working on a proper VI for my building project, but there is a problem... The project here is to define the occurrence of the error and the error type to decide what actions are required to protect the circuit. This isn't a problem here...

    The problem is when I run the VI for the first time... Everything is good and I got what I need... But when I run it after that... The new results to come out with the results of the first round... So my problem is with the previous results of LEDs and indicators of compensation

    Hope my question is clear and not confusing

    Well, show us a code instead. How do you call the VI?

    Have you tried the option: "properties of the VI... run... clear the flags when called?

  • My HP laptop has had a problem with the uncontrollable from scrolling upward and to the left.

    Hoping someone can help me with this - for a month or if my computer hp laptop has had a problem with uncontrollable scroll upward and to the left. It is now getting worse and happens in all programs, including Word, Adobe, browsers, etc.. Even to type this message is difficult because the cursor periodically jumps to the top left corner of the text box. I tried to attach a new external mouse, but this is not enough. The problem occurs even when not to use the touchpad. I scanned my computer with several anti-virusprograms but no luck. It becomes difficult to use the computer for something else. Even now the down arrows / right does not help. PLEASE ADVISE!

     
     
    Original title: scrolling problem

    Hi Suresh,

    This is a late response to your question, but I thought that I could add more information here.

    From your description, it seems that your PageUp and the keys to the House (or arrows) of the keyboard are either stuck, or failing. These keys usually help access us in applications you mentioned. And since you mentioned that this happens even when the touchpad is not in use, it is likely that this could be the cause here.

    I suggest get you the checked keyboard when using a hardware technician, preferably from your computer manufacturer. That should help you understand better.

    Let us know if you need help with Windows, we are happy to be of assistance.

  • Problem with the Macbook, it "goes off" and suddenly crashes

    I bought a new macbook pro 13 inch screen retina early 2015 (bought in November 2015) processor: 2.7 GHz Intel Core i5, memory: 8 GB 1867 MHz DDR3, graphics: Intel Graphics Iris 6100 1536 MB, Version OS X Yosemite 10.10.5. After some time of use (about 2 months), I've been havin this problem: occasional, the screen goes black (as if it was closed) and the trackpad blocks and don't click. When this occurs, the computer does not react with anything, and there is no way to turn and knit. Once it's "off" o whatever it is, can't do bu wait until it works again. When he started to arrive it is stayed "off" and blocked for a few minutes or a few hours, but now when it comes it stays like that for several days or even weeks. I already took it to be fixed and SEEN, and they told me that the 'motherboard' has been damaged, then they changed it for a new one, but in any case I still having the same problem. This same problem also happens to people I know who have the same macbook as I do. I don't know what is happening to this computer, can someone help me please? I really need this problem to be solved quickly.

  • Problems with the Wi - Fi (Airport Extreme and At &amp; t Uverse questions)

    Hello

    We used an Airport Extreme with AT & T Uverse to our network wireless successfully since 2010. Recently Uverse sent me a new modem, and our wireless service has taken a turn for the worse. The network has two different wireless Internet for our House. Please let know us how we can solve this problem. We use a Mac, mac laptop 2, iPad 2 & all Iphones 2 are up-to-date with the latest version of the software.

    Mike

    The AT & T device is a modem/router that provides a signal of wireless network with a name something like ATTa1b3c3d, for example. Your AirPort Extreme also provides a wireless signal by using a wireless network name that you have assigned to the device.

    Thus, it would be normal for you to be able to 'see' the two wireless networks.

    If you don't want to not use the ATT Wireless, just ignore it... or... If you think that it is at the origin of the conflict with the wireless AirPort Extreme, it is possible to turn off wireless on ATT modem/router, so that you only 'sees' the AirPort Extreme network.

    AT & T support can help you in the task of turning off the wireless... or... If you have the number of brand and practical model of modem/router, AT & T, we can try to find an online configuration guide which could provide instructions for this task.

    If you encounter a different kind of problem, please provide details on the problem.

  • Problems with the compatibility of Lightroom 6CC and ElCapitan on older iMacs

    When I upgraded to ElCapitan, Lightroom CC seems to continue to work without problem.  Then I did the first update and since then, I have not been able to use development module in the program.  I posted these problems on the Lightroom forums (see link below), but it is clearly an Apple problem, is not a problem of Lightroom. Lightroom people think it's the graphics processor in the older iMac which poses problem, but as I said above, it happened on the first update, not on the initial installation.  There is now another update on hold, and I fear that other programs will no longer work.  Apple made contact with Lightroom on those very real inconsistencies and what is their consensus?  This is a serious problem for a person using an older iMac and photo editing using Adoble products.  For a fuller discussion, please see the link below for the Lightroom Forum (information was also posted on the Forum from Adobe).

    Information on my version of Lightroom and my computer are in posts on the forum.

    pgrade-Lightroom-CC-2015-3-Camera-Raw-9-http://www.lightroomforums.NET/showthread.php?27159-develop-module-problems-in-u...

    Thanks to anyone who can help solve this problem.

    Should I worry about several incompatibilities with the new pending upgrade to El Capitan?

    FWIW, iMac 24 "early 2009 may have at least 512 KB of VRAM (typical models

    only had 256 K).  The specification of Lightroom CC, minimum is 1 GB of VRAM.

    Operation on this machine was borderline at best and probably just lucky it worked at all.

    In addition, a huge impact on the works of Lightroom is the amount of RAM installed.  With

    El Capitan installed, try to run Lightroom CC with anything less than 8 GB will be

    issue (despite what can say Adobe).

    You can download and use Process Explorer to see exactly what is taking your time processor/CPU and memory. This can help you to identify applications that you might want to consider alternatives for and get rid of all together.

    Update your drivers for hardware devices from the manufacturer themselves - do not use the built-in features of Windows. If you want, come back and let us know a bit more information on your system - particularly the brand / model of the system, you have - and maybe someone here can guide you to the place s x of law to this end. This isn't 100% necessary - but I'd be willing to bet that you would gain some performance and features in making this part.

    If restore work not and you do not have a Vista DVD from Microsoft, do a repair disc to do a Startup Repair:

    Download the ISO on the link provided and make a record of repair time it starts.

    Go to your Bios/Setup, or the Boot Menu at startup and change the Boot order to make the DVD/CD drive 1st in the boot order, then reboot with the disk in the drive.

    At the startup/power on you should see at the bottom of the screen either F2 or DELETE, go to Setup/Bios or F12 for the Boot Menu.

    When you have changed that, insert the Bootable disk you did in the drive and reboot.

  • SL500, Windows 7: Problems with the interface audio external Firewire and Digitus USB KVM switch

    Hello

    I have an audio interface, Presonus Firestudio Project, which connects via Firewire to my Lenovo SL500. On the Sl500 is Windows 7 x 86 installed. I have also 2 rudders (Akai APC20 and M-Audio UC33e), 1 Midi Interface and a kvm switch connected via USB.

    Almost everytime I make music with Cubase or Ableton Live I get holes in my audio stream. Audio playback stops just freezes for 1-10 seconds and the surface of my DAW. This becomes especially annoying when I record.

    Recently, I have disabled all devices in the BIOS except for Firewire and USB, but I am always running into the same problem. Then I got a look at the system information for Windows 7 and the saw - problems/sharing section - USB and Firewire to share the same IRQ. I'm almost certain that this is the problem causing the audio gaps.

    Is there a way to chanmge in Lenovo Sl500 BIOS IRQ settings?

    Best regards

    belochim

    After Plug and install a USB audio interface that I borrowed from a friend, I noticed that whenever I changed my KVM switch to the surface of the other PC Ableton froze for a second. The audio stream on the other hand kept and just as it was supposed to.

    The KVM switch is a "Digitus Pocket 2-port USB KVM switch" model No. "DS-11402-1".» This KVM switch seem to be a kind of diffusion in the USB bus which then interrupts the audio stream running on Firewire.

  • Problem with the sharing printers between WIndows & and Windows Xp

    I have a laser printer HP 1150 connected by USB on my computer Windows 7 (Home Premium 64-bit). I want to share with another pc with Xp Pro (SP3), but can not find a suitable printer driver. I read the thread on the sharing of printers and led most of the steps.

    My problem is that, although I can see the printer of the xp machine, it requires a driver. I had already installed the drivers from HP and the printer works fine by direct USB connection on the XP machine, but it appears that I need a driver installed on the W7 machine as well - and I can't seem to find one that works.

    Any ideas what to do?
