• Tecra S1 and strange keyboard problem

  Hello

  I had one laptop Tecra S1 old but still works perfectly, except for one thing that is a few years old.

  A month ago or so the keyboard started acting all weird for a small period. When I press 'e' the output is eo and if I hold down the button the output looks like this: "eooooooooooooo." The other keys work fine. When I press the 'o' key it simply prints me an o. It has nothing to do with the language of the combination Fn + F10-11 settings. When I have the keypad and I press 'e' I just get the number 6, the same thing happens when I press o.

  So basically the o - key works as it should. But there is something missed on 'e '. Earlier today it has worked when I had the pad on, but a little later he returned all crazy. I started my system with a Linux LiveCD to see if it was an OS problem but it wasn't. With an external keyboard, the system works like a charm.

  That one key, the e, causing me a headache. It prints me eo or eooooooooooo when pressed.

  Thanks if anyone can help me with this. I am thinking of opening up the system and check on the keyboard. It is simply difficult to find a keyboard with a layout of the Finns, but maybe I'll buy an English and Relabel upward.

  I agree with the user who has the funny nickname I like it ;)

  It looks like a malfunction of the keyboard and it should be replaced
  The ASP can do this! Ask if the technicians for assistance!

• Tecra 8000: Behavior strange keyboard after reassembly

  Hello

  After reassembling the individual keys on my keyboard in Tecra 8000, the keys have a strange behavior. For example, if I press the 2 key the display shows '82' or 'q '. If I hold the button longer, the display shows "2222222222222...", the right to sign for the key. "
  You know, what can I do?
  I had to go back the key because my little niece takes off all the keys.

  Thanks for your reply,
  Butch

  Hello

  I agree with Daniel. There is a technical problem and the only thing you can do is to try to clean the contacts. If there is no success, you need to replace the keyboard. This unit is older and I am sure you can find a used keyboard at low prices.

  Good bye

• Portege R830 - Trackpad/keyboard problem

  HI - hope someone can help because I have only a few strands of hair left out!

  In the last two weeks, a problem has developed with the trackpad - and maybe my keyboard. Here are some of the symptoms

  1. the cursor on the screen suddenly freezes. If I leave the laptop and work back, and it's not.

  2. If I tap on the keyboard (can simply press the keys or I could be typing in a document) and the cursor may freeze again. During this event the little 'mouse/trackpad' power icon flashes briefly on the screen. If I hit another key (literally anywhere on the keyboard) a number of times (not the model number) the icon can cycle and the slider moves and then freeze again.

  It's as if each key on the keyboard is somehow the role of the FnF9 key.

  Unfortunately I took the laptop on a business trip recently and this time after initialization the laptop - the cursor was frozen and no amount of pressure button thoughtful or random didn't get going. It is a working battery. That scared the hell out of me.

  If I plug in a USB keyboard and mouse and then pressing the keys on this keyboard does not cause the cursor to freeze. But he can do anyway - as described in 1. above.

  The F9 key will unlock the cursor (I guess re - turn on the trackpad) - but it won't be long before cycle back again.

  I did not drop the phone. There is nothing physically wrong with her. The battery holds its charge and it starts successfully. I did no change of material during the month.

  The only button on the keyboard that is not working is the mouse/trackpad power button just above the space bar. It feels a bit depressed - but I think that is how it has always been. Juggle it makes no difference to this bizarre and erratic behavior. But perhaps this is relevant.

  When I tried.

  Reinstall the trackpad driver (Synaptics).

  Reinstall the PVAT (value package).

  I even tried to re-imaging of HARD drive to one of these days - and the other just after that I bought the laptop in 2012. Which should have solved if it was a software/driver problem - but it didn't.

  One thing I did not, is venturing into the BIOS. Maybe there is something in them?

  In Device Manager that everything is listed - no warning at all. There seems to be be no IRQ conflict.

  This could be a hardware problem? I read that the keyboards on R830 are quite likely to damage/stoppage of work. A the United Kingdom popular auction site has sellers who claim to have sold more than 40! That's a lot of R830s who have had new keyboards.

  I also know that a replacement is a pain, so I hope that's not it.

  Someone at - it suggestions? It makes me crazy.

  I google extensively and can't come up with anything either. There are the usual raft of people trying to find how to activate the trackpad or disable - but none seem to be struggling with the laptop made for them.

  Help!

  Hello

  According to the description of your problem, it seems that the touchpad is disabled automatically.
  As you have already mentioned, the touchpad can be enabled and disabled by using the FN + F9 key combination function

  Since you have also some keyboard problems, my theory is that there is a problem of keyboard that may be responsible for the touchpad ON / OFF question.

  What do you think of this theory?

  I put t think there is a software problem because as you already reset the system to the point in time at the beginning (factory settings?). This is why I think that the conflict of software cannot be the reason for this.

• Satellite L855 - 12N - keyboard problem after upgrade to Windows 10

  Greetings friends,
  the problem goes like this: I have a TOSHIBA satellite, L855-12N, Series notebook.

  After updrading to win 10, some of my keys (a, n, enter) did not work initially.
  If I wait for awhile, they start work later.
  I find that I continue to press a button, (for example the button "a") for a long time, I see that he started to answer, then stop again and then answer - stop, until finally it works OK.
  I tried to update the drivers, uninstall and then reinstall, but it doesn't seem to work.
  Anyone know what's going on, or have any suggestions?
  Thank you.

  You are 100% it's a matter of Windows 10?
  Looks more like a hardware problem, keyboard should replace.

  Go into the BIOS and test the keyboard in there.
  If it goes into the BIOS and then replace the keyboard.

  If it's a software problem, try uninstalling the driver for the touchpad Control Panel, then reinstall it via Windows Update.

• Satellite C660 - keyboard problem

  I have a problem with the keyboard on my Satellite c660 laptop, reference number: PSC1LE.
  The best way I can describe it is like a stuttering problem because it comes and go (very well for a few hours, then not for a short period).

  The problem is that, for reasons unknown to me, I continue to experience a problem where the A, N and Enter keys do not work when you press. Sometimes pressing the key several times (they they are not frozen) is simply the letter out, but I can not continue to press the time key to five or six to get a letter. Just to mention, I've not spilled anything on the keyboard.

  I did full virus and spyware scans but have found no problem.
  I have done tonight all the updates of windows available to me, but it does not appear to have done the trick.

  After the restart that follows the device updates all worked them for about 15 minutes, so that the same three keys stopped working again. On this occasion, it lasted only a few minutes, and now I'm writing this with the same keyboard.

  Note: I do not use the original keyboard. I changed the jury due to minor property damage, but he did private.
  However, this was done most of the year there and worked flawlessly since installation, until this new edition took place in recent weeks.

  If anyone has new recommendations or suggestions as to what can be the cause or solutions and then share it please.

  I think you'd understand that nobody is able to say why your keyboard malfunctioned.
  Only if the hardware of the laptop has been scanned/verified, it would be possible to say what's wrong here
  But as General, there is a good workaround solution to diagnose the problem.

  You could connect the external USB keyboard to the laptop and could check if the same problems with the mentioned buttons will occur.

  In case the external USB keyboard would work correctly, I think that your internal keyboard is the troublemaker in such a case, you will need to replace the keyboard once more.

• Satellite L keyboard problem

  I can't imagine that this issue is because you pressed something. Obviously zero is blocked somehow?
  Press is several times but gently to see if this can be unlocked in some way.

  You can restart your laptop and see if it will happen again and again. If the problem persists next days may be time for the replacement of keyboard. Maybe it sounds serous now, but it is not.
  Keyboard is not expensive and for this older model mobile, you can get one on eBay for a few Euros.
  Replacement is either not so complicated and you can do it alone.

• How to replace the keyboard on a Toshiba laptop? SOLUTION

  If your Toshiba laptop keyboard does not work as it should?

  If your keyboard problem comes from a spillage, a hard lump, or you simply worn, you don't have to worry about investing in a new laptop, you can solve your keyboard with a simple Exchange. The good news is that setting a keyboard does not have a lot of technical skill. In fact, keyboards are among the mobile more easy to repair.

  Remove the frame just above the keyboard. You will notice a Tin strip of plastic located just above the keyboard. This band is called the keyboard bezel and you remove by gently lifting the edge upward with your small standard screwdriver. Work your way through the bezel lifting as you go. The bezel is that a nod to the unit, so remember to be gentle, as you work your way through.

  Remove the screws from the laptop keyboard Toshiba G83C000872. When the frame is removed, you will find three or four screws at the top of the keyboard. Using your small Philips screwdriver, remove these screws and place them in a safe place where you will not lose them.

  Remove the keyboard. With the screws removed, gently lift the keyboard from the top down. You will notice a sliver of wire from the keyboard to the laptop. Lean toward the front of the keyboard so that you can access the ribbon cable connection.

  Remove the Ribbon wire. Take your standard screwdriver and gently push up the support locks, on both sides of the ribbon cable socket. These support slide locks up slightly as you push to release the wire.

  Connect the keyboard to replacement. Everything as you have removed the old keyboard, you will now push the replacement wire Ribbon in Ribbon decision-making. With a small screwdriver, push the brackets in place to fix the Ribbon.

  Screw the replacement keyboard. Using a screw, connect the keyboard. With the keyboard which is held in place by the screw, start the computer and test the replacement keyboard. Once tested, replace the remaining screws.

  Insert the bezel above the keyboard. With the keyboards now set by all the screws, place the bezel back on its opening and put it back. Start at one end and work your way through.

  Thanks for teaching.

• Satellite A30: For those inventive keyboard problem

  Hello

  My problem is that I spilled juice on my Satellite A30. Since MN then. keys on the keyboard do not respond. I think it has to do with the fact that the juice having disappeared left a sort of insulation under the buttons. I wonder if anyone can advise me on the following:

  1. How can I remove the keyboard off Satellite A30? The manual does not give an indication on it.

  2. is it possible to remove faulty buttons, clean the surface below them and put back them without any problem? I heard that once removed laptop keyboard buttons cannot be placed back correctly.

  3 should. what solution I use to clean the remains of juice? My only idea is to use some sort of soapy solution.

  4 wouldn't be allright just to put the keyboard without removing faulty buttons in a solution and keep it for a while until all the juice remains are taken away? The keyboard let completely dry and replace in place? Or, maybe there is a way to disassemble the keyboard in order to break the circuit so that it can be cleaned without worries?

  I hope you people help me get through this question cause I don't want to spend a fortune on a new keyboard, as people in the service center possibly won't bother to clean up my keybard and will just get away with ordering a new.

  OK, thanks for your ideas and consideration.

  Hello

  If the buttons just does not have the "n" and am ' ones, then you may be able to clean adequately without the need to disassemble your A30.

  First, you need to remove the covered buttons involved. To do this gently prising upward from the bottom edge of each button (use the SPACEBAR as a rest for a small flat blade so that you can lift buttons up. Once the keys are deleted (not to lose) you will be able to see the cantilever spring mechanism that makes electrical contact when you press it. Carefully clean the area with a small cotton swab (or even a small brush) and a lot of alcohol isoproyl (or an electrical contact, cleaning solution). I hope that this will restore the normal operation of the keys.

  To replace the top key locate top edge first and lower aid in position and apply progressive pressure the bottom of the key top until your feel/hear a 'click '.

  If all else fails, then you need to replace the keyboard, but fortunately, they are not too expensive (about £65 I remember well).

  Good luck

  Hi @ADretired

  Welcome to the HP Support Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the Forums of HP, I would like to draw your attention to the Guide of the Forums HP first time here? Learn how to publish and more.

  I see you are having some problems with keyboard and I'll be happy to help you. I would advise to take the keys off and clean it. You can find the right way to do so under the section key stuck in this document from HP, computer laptop keyboard troubleshooting. Also I recommend the last section reinstall or update the software keyboard for laptop. If neither of these options work while looking to replace the keyboard. This is Service and Maintenance Guide for your model and on page 52, you'll find instructions on removal and replacement of the keyboard.
