Question about my new keyboard

My parents gave me a multimedia keyboard Microsoft 1. 0 to because my Dell keyboard was dying.  Multimedia keyboard has a PS/2 end and I only have USB ports, so I bought an adapter.  Who will perform the quick launch on the keyboard buttons?  The sticker on the bottom of the keyboard said KB-0168, so is no help.

It is unlikely that the USB-PS/2 adapter will work. It can't hurt to try, but this has nothing to do with the special buttons work decisions. You need drivers for the keyboard that will provide the software for special of the keyboard keys. Here is a link to the drivers

http://www.Microsoft.com/hardware/download/DownloadResult.aspx?category=MK&type=keyboard&name=key-00028&OS=XP_32&lang=en

Connect the keyboard to your computer using the adapter that you have purchased. If it works fine. Download and install the drivers and you should get the advanced features of this keyboard.

If the adapter does not work, go buy a new USB keyboard. You can buy a standard USB keyboard for $10-15, so it's no big deal. I bought quite a few very good Logitech keyboards from NewEgg for $14 ea.

  • Question about the new Yoga 10 HD +.

    Hello

    A few questions about the new Yoga 10 HD + that I hope you can answer.

    I bought the former model, last year. Love the design and long battery life, but a few major questions made me return.

    • Somewhere that I've read that it can not read NTFS on USB so I guess that's the same thing with a NTFS formatted microSD card?
    • Can it read exFAT formatted microSD cards?
    • Anyone who has questions about the audio via bluetooth?
      (I know that BT is not exactly High End HiFi but the old 10 Yoga for some obscure reason - most likely a driver problem which nobody cared to fix - rang * very * worst with visibly distortion while both my phone and a Tablet noname cheap I have zero about fidelity - any of my devices bluetooth audio) I tried aptX or not)

    So to avoid buying it back it also I really I would like to see if I can get my questions answered before buy you.

    While I love the form factor and long term issues above are only two Mayor dealbreakers for me. Bad audio quality = no joy listen to spotify, local etc. MP3s. not of NTFS or exFAT = some great movies.

    My old noname android Tablet really could use an upgrade so I'm really curious it may be, or I should watch the competition and will be form factor and battery LIFE.

    Thanks in advance.

    EDIT:

    If it does not support NTFS or exFAT on microSD card have someone at - he tried ext3 or ext4?

    I mean with Linux Android root, it should be a no-brainer to support at least when it comes to royalties unlike NTFS or exFAT where it * might * have some trouble with Microsoft.

    I used a USB through a USB OTG cable. NTFS or exFAT have been recognized by the Tablet PC. FAT32 is seems to be the preference.

  • A few questions about my new Z5 Compact camera

    A few days ago I bought the Xperia Z5 Compact (and updated the marshmallow) to replace my Z1 Compact and meanwhile read the manual and looked into the camera settings. Now I have 2 questions about the camera.

    (1) according to this manual, it takes an option to 'adjust the color and brightness manually. I rember having seen this option once in the form of 2 sliders, but now I cannot reproduce it more and find more options in the settings. What should I do wrong or overlooking?

    (2) I noticed that I can manually put only iso for resolution of 8 MP or less. When I put a 20 MP resolution, the iso setting is grayed and automatically the value. Is this a normal behavior?

    Thanks in advance for the answers.

    Hi @Rijnton,

    I just tested this on my Xperia X but it runs on Android M, it should be similar to the Z5 Compact (although there may be some differences).

    Color and brightness options may not be available in manual mode, but are for higher Auto and video.

  • Satelite A30 - Question about replacement of keyboard

    Hello

    I posted a question [here | http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/message.jspa?messageID=132833] on keyboard replacement for laptop Toshiba Satellite A30. I ordered a Curry www.partmaster.co.uk Web site now (~ A £47 including TAX). I will wait for it in a few weeks.

    The fact post refers to the removal of the keyboard existing as such:

    + If you want to remove the keyboard, you will need to first remove the thin plastic above the F1 - F12 buttons. Under this coverage, you will find 2 screws which fix the keyboard. These screws must be removed. After the two screws were removed, you could take the keyboard. +

    There is a plastic thin UNDER the F1 - F12 keys, who feels more easily removable as above plastic strip. One above feels very firmly attached to the laptop casing and has holes for the button ON / OFF and some of the lights.

    It is certainly the plastic strip thin above the function keys? or would that acutally one below? (I don't want to raise the Strip above if this is a mistake and I end up breaking!).

    I can post a picture if need be.

    Thank you

    To remove the keyboard, follow these steps:

    1. open the display panel until it is almost horizontal.
    2. press the F1 key on the row from the bottom of your keyboard and insert a thin tool into the narrow hole under the cover of the band.
    3. use the tool to gently lift the cover away from the computer strip
    4. remove the two black screws from the top of the keyboard where they attach to the chassis of the computer
    5 lift the keyboard from the top and then get out. The lower part of the keyboard has 5 teeth that are inserted into the slots in the chassis, so be sure to not break when you take off the keyboard
    6. on the keyboard's underside is a keyboard cable. Gently remove it by pulling the display panel in the back.

    That's all ;)

  • EM12c, improvement of the system of two - Question about the new repository

    Hi DBA:
    I used the method of two system to upgrade my 11.1 SGD to 12.1.0.2. The upgrade has completed, and is followed by 7 of 42 officers, so I'm still trying to switch these. In the new EM12c, 'Management and Repository Services' page shows the connection descriptor - but it refers to the repository 11.1 SGD database. I'm afraid to ask, but if this should not be the new repository of WHO, that I created as a clone of the repository 11.1 SGD database? I checked my YES screenshot and the node logs; database connection details are accurate to the new database and the old repository. There is no glaring errors of the console EM12c. How do I validate this?

    Thank you

    Laura Sallwasser

    Hi Laura, support will update your SR with the solution and the first cause. To update this thread, the problem is that you had an agent (10.2.0.5 or 11g) in the box of SGD 12 c before the upgrade. SGD 12 c install also installs an agent on this box, but will not create the target host as target host was already created and controlled by the former agent.
    Travel to an agent will fail if the agent does not monitor the target host. Thus, oracle_emrep target relocation failed and raises questions that customers report.

    We donnt 2-system of support upgarde on the same host (guide says the same thing). Support will help you how to go forward, I explained the steps.
    I connected a bug to see if we can launch a warning in pre-upgarde console earlier.

  • Equium M50-216 - Question about the new facility

    Hello

    Recently rescued a laptop Equium M50 of my flat mate. Was a little out of adjustment. She said that I might have as could not get on the internet and it seems to be missing some vital files.

    Managed to get the wireless working again and little removed from the trash which was on it, but there are larger issues for example. Whatever it is USB I plug it will not install as there are no drivers on the HARD drive.

    I think that it probably needs to be formatted and have Windows XP Home Edition reinstalled but I did not all discs for her and do not want to spend hundreds of new software to purchase for it. Please let me know what are my best options.

    Best regards

    Ed

    > have Windows XP Home Edition reinstalled, but I did not all discs for her
    That s confusing you reinstalled Windows XP, but why you need the laptop drives? I mean if Windows XP is already reinstalled you can start with the installation of the driver. Everything can be downloaded on the official website of Toshiba:
    http://EU.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com > support & downloads > download drivers

    Your laptop is an older model so you should look for in * Archives *.

  • Question about cleaning the keyboard of an Equium A60

    Hello

    I recently managed to outflank cola on the keyboard of an Equium A60 and the keys are sticking rather annoying. Nothing else has been affected by the oil spill. Is there a way to clean the keys on these machines, such as by popping the key cover off? I am unwilling to put too much force to see if this method will not work because they don't seem like the type who's going to jump off and I don't want to cause any real damage (or rather, not more damage). As far as I remember, the period of guarantee in addition to the machine, so I prefer to take a solution that I can do myself rather than send in a (probably) expensive 'official' job. Any advice is welcome.

    Thank you
    Kemp

    Hello

    sounds very good. How do you know that only the keyboard has been affected? Do you have some view of x rays? :)

    I suggest you to bring the product to a technician because if once some fluid more so deeply touched a laptop, then you have a big problem.
    I can't give you a few tips to clean your keyboard because it s not only of clothes that can be lifted in a tube with some oxy-clean.

    I really suggest you to connect with someone who is familiar with this kind of computer system.

  • questions about the new SSD T530 upgrade

    I just bought a T530 that comes with a 500 GB 7200 RPM HARD drive. I bought a 256 GB Samsung SSD 830 and was trying to install this. The questions I have are:

    1. is it recommended I the SSD drive in the ultrabay housing and keep the HARD disk where it is? Or place the HARD drive in the ultrabay slot and have the SSD to the standard housing?

    2. is there a certain adapter that should be used on the installation of SSD or HARD drive in the ultrabay slot?

    3 are there settings that need to be changed when using an SSD?

    Thanks in advance.

    1. no difference whatever he is, although if you count hotswap in an optical device, it would be easier to have your primary OS drive.

    2. any generic SATA-UltraBay adapter should work. Make sure you have the size and the generation correct however.

    3. There are a few adjustments on swap files, defragment, etc. You should be able to find this information on the internet.

  • question about a new external hard drive partitioning

    I just bought a TB G-Technology G 4 USB 3.0 drive to replace my old Lacie which is way to small.  It has served me well.

    I Google search on the net and research here in the discussions, I should create partitions, and if so, how, a few observations are in each article thread or by email.  A reason to partition (actually more than one partition) is so we can have a section for our time Machine backups, and for a section where we want to save our data backup and one for our user data?  I have not seen a clear statement on what might be the 'data', or what might be the 'user data '.  And if the time machine is backed up, is it NOT back up my data files?

    In order to unravel how the partitions I should create in my 4 TB Ex HD, can someone help me better understand what I should and should not save in time machine?  And if I choose to NOT include it in my Time Machine backup, why would I use a partition do it to, in order to save manually?  I do not pretend that it sounds stupid, I'm not clear on what 'it' is and what info I use to make the best decision for my use.

    Thanks a lot for any wisdom you could share with me.

    Michelle

    Have a Time Machine backup partition on the same drive as your data is a stupid backup plan. Since the main cause of data loss is disk failure to have the backup on the same disk as the means of data when the wrong road, you lose everything.

    At Time Machine backup. You never know what data you will lose.

    I suggest that you give up your plan to make the Time Machine backups on the same drive as the data. You need another player for that.

    To extend time to work on the battery to make hard disk access faster and to extend the disk space, I upgrade my hard drive.

    This hard drive is compatible with my Toshiba Satellite A series and you have a better solution please respone?

    Love, peace,
    Vasja.

    The HARD drive is very nice.
    The A100 PSAA9 series supports SATA 2.5 hard drives.
    The 160 GB should also be compatible because some units of the A100 series were already equipped with 160 GB hard drives.

    I think it s a HARD drive supported.

  • Question about the new facility ESXi 5

    Hi all

    Recently, I installed VMware vSphere with operations management on our server. I also registered this product and I get an email notification for 60 day trial.

    AFAIK the ESXi is a free version, what arrived on my virtual machine after the 60 day trial period?

    Do I have to install another version of ESXi?

    Thank you in advance,

    Kostas

    This is because your vCenter Operations Manager Suite series is not intended to an esxi host.

    The key you have done was proved for another product, the Operations Manager vCenter, who must be deployed as a virtual appliance on the esxi host.

    For the esxi host, you will need to register on the site I linked. You will then get a serial number for license free esxi, which is not an evaluation, so it will not be displayed under 'my assessments.
