PS/2 keyboard does not not Windows 8

I use Windows 8 Pro and have a PS/2 keyboard that was packaged with my Windows Vista PC (since, I bought a new computer and wish to use this keyboard, because it is a US provision and not the Canadian bilingual), but when I plug it does nothing, but when the computer turns on a light beds where the thing number of locking is a I had tried this solution. InHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\i8042prt,change the value of Startand assign a hexadecimal or decimal of 1.  But he connected with Device Manager it (the keyboard option) is not pop up. It's as if my computer does not recognize it. Is anyone knows if there is a problem with the keyboard, or is it my computer.

I've actually solved the problem, it seems after you change, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\i8042pr, did it solve the problem after I had as well my connected USB keyboard and PS/2 keyboard it at once and that some how solve my problem.

  • Keyboard does not, Windows think key CTRL is pressed

    My keyboard on my MSI Wind 100 worked great.  Then it was potted.  Upon restarting, I got a message saying the word seeing me that the CTRL key was depressed (it isn't) and did I want to start in safe mode.  I tried both Yes and no.  The keyboard is not recognized at all.  I tried the key shift + delete CTRL-Left (suggested by another issue of the forum), reboot, check the language setting (English) and ensuring that the keyboard is displayed in Device Manager.  Nothing works.  I also deleted all the shortcuts and keys to sticky in the control panel.  Still nothing.  I tried to update and that no longer works.  Suggestions?

    Try using another keyboard on your computer.  If it works well, the computer keyboard is defective. Boulder computer Maven

  • Key ESC Office keyboard does not work on desktop running Windows 7 Pro 64 x

    Key ESC Office keyboard does not work on desktop running Windows 7 Pro 64 x

    Now, it's a boring, which several other users have reported under different threads. Because I couldn't find a post with quite similar symptoms, I made my own topic.

    I am running Windows 7 Professional 64 x on an old one (Intel Quad-Core, 4 GB RAM, 524 GB HDD - in case, for reasons unknown to me, someone needs to know it...) , DellXPS system. Not more than a few weeks ago my home button keyboard unresponsive on this system.

    I did a lot of troubleshooting, but these measures have been carried out:
    * Tested keyboard on the other system, touch ESC WORKS on the other system
    * Reinstalled keyboard and USB drivers on the XPS system, ESC key does NOT WORK on the XPS system
    * Connected to a never-before-used USB keyboard, ESC key does NOT WORK on the XPS system
    * Opened and cleaned the keyboard, tested, Escape key WORKS, Don't DO NOT WORK on the XPS system
    * Tested in various applications: Desktop (Esc will close the start menu), Photoshop, Vegas, Notepad, games full screen OpenGL,Escape key does NOT WORK on the XPS system
    * Google for possible solutions, none found...

    Note: Highlights show where the ESC key does not work. I am troubled by the XPS system.

    In case you missed it my list of troubleshooting steps, the ESC key works on another computer of Windows 7 system.

    I have to still garble my self through the registry in the hope that someone might have an idea of the steps to follow before I lose a day to see the things that I honestly know squat. Please help if you can; What could be the issue/common application that separates this key in the Windows world and how could I solve this problem?

    Thank you in advance!

    For reference,.
    No major changes have been made since the keyboard unresponsive with the exception of:
    Updates to FireFox (including modules Ad-Block Plus, NoScript, which have also been updated).
    Windows Update
    A 10.x MB World of Warcraft patch/update on a keyboard AFTER week unresponsive

    Already installed the patches StarCraft II and World of Warcraft, which none touched my keyboard to my knowledge. I finished almost all of StarCraft II and had no problems...

    I know it's a bit old, but I was living the question myself.  Thought I had found the problem and it was fixed but then it happened again.  Came to find out (by closing a program and test the ESC key) it's because Photoshop.

    With the help of Photoshop, which could match the case you mention.  Not only that but I did a search ('ESC' does not not Photoshop) and stumbled on some answers/solutions workaround for it.  One is to use SHIFT + ESC ESC does not work.

    Hope this helps someone.  I fell it using my original research ("Windows 7" BSE "ESC" keyboard does not) and know that others are likely to see.  If you have not already learn the cause, in the year + since your original message, then voila.

  • Microsoft MultiMedia 1.1 wireless keyboard does not work - Windows 7 64 bit

    Keyboard does not work.  Does not enter any data.  Battery is good, the wireless signal is good.  Tested on another computer and does not work there either.  Tried to uninstall, reinstall and checked for driver updates. Original installation disk is incompatible with Windows 7.  Message says device is working, but the keyboard is "dead."

    Appreciate the suggestions, pls.  TX

    Not a good sign that it does not work on another computer. Go to control panel > devices and printers. If the keyboard doesn't appear as an installed device, think of it as dead and buried.

    Windows identifies devices of small IC boards inside the devices and guess they are ok. Windows cannot do is determine if the keyboard membrane makes contact with the small IC Board...

  • Keyboard does not in the guest windows 10

    Hello

    A newbie to mac but a long-time windows user, so feel free to be as technical as possible. After more than 10 years on windows, finally decided to pull the plug and switch completely to a mac. Since I had to give my old windows PC (Windows 64-bit 10), I used the coverter free vcenter to perform a P2V from my windows PC conversion. The resulting virtual machine was created as virtual machine VMware fusion 8 compatible.

    WHAT VM Windows starts on my macbook running fusion 8 pro (running El Capitan) However, the keyboard does not register in Windows VM itself. Was browsing through the community, but have not all good tracks.

    Enjoy fast if possible assistance

    Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    Try Firefox Safe mode to see if the problem goes away. Safe mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most of the modules.

    (If you use it, switch to the default theme).

    • Under Windows, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key SHIFT key when you open the desktop Firefox or shortcut in the start menu.
    • On Mac, you can open Firefox 4.0 + in Safe Mode holding the key option key when starting Firefox.
    • Under Linux, you can open Firefox 4.0 + with leaving Firefox then go to your Terminal and running Safe Mode: firefox-safe-mode (you may need to specify the installation path of Firefox for example/usr/lib/firefox)
    • Or open the Help menu and click on the restart with the disabled... modules menu item while Firefox is running.

    Once you get the pop-up, simply select "" boot mode safe. "

    If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode, your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to understand that one. To do this, please follow article Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems .

    To exit safe mode of Firefox, simply close Firefox and wait a few seconds before you open Firefox for normal use again.

    When find you what is causing your problems, please let us know. It might help others who have the same problem.

    I hope this helps!
