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!

See you soon

    Hello

    The keys are connected on the map as the rest of the keyboard keys.
    There are not connected separately. To me, it looks like a hardware would be malfunctions.
    Why? Well, it's not easy to say. Sometimes loses keyboard cable affects the use of the keyboard. But maybe the entire keyboard needs to be replaced.

    We must consider this possibility I think you should contact the ASP in your country. If the warranty is valid replacement should be done for free.

  • Re: Tecra A7 - replacement of keyboard problem

    Hello

    A friend asked me to fix her keyboard, so we bought one on eBay and it reversed. A new is American and does not the cursor-nub/trackpoint (whatever you call it) in the intermediate connector and so only 1 Ribbon at the back. I'm 100% sure that I have connected it properly, I checked and checked.
    Above all, it works fine, but then some keys have stopped working as backspace and enter, which is a big deal.
    I tried to uninstall the drivers and reboot. I tried to change the type of keyboard language settings in the control panel.

    No matter what we try, we can not get this keyboard with all operation keys!
    Is there a setting that I forgot that should change?
    Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!

    It is not easy to discuss about this if you n t use 100% the same and original keyboard.
    Standard Microsoft keyboard driver uses so I put t know which driver you can change to check the functionality of the keyboard.

    Is so problematic to find the original and the same keyboard as the original? On eBay, you can find everything.

  • 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.

    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.

    You seem to be pressing the NumLock key. On an English keyboard, it can be reported Num, Num Lk, digital or similar. You should be able to turn it off by pressing it again. If this does not work, try to press it by pressing the Fn. consult the manual of your computer for more information.

  • Mouse Microsoft and Center keyboard problems during the recent Windows Update

    Windows 7 Professional 32/64

    Windows Update, it is a week downloaded Microsoft Mouse and keyboard Center.  Apparently it did not install correctly on Windows 7.  Messages of two windows now pop up when you start.  They are the exact same messages one above the other which must be clicked off the coast.  Here's the exact message:

    "There is a problem with the installation of the mouse and keyboard software Center.  To resolve this problem, you must remove the mouse and keyboard software from the Center, and then rerun the implementation of centre of keyboard and mouse.  For more information on the point to add or remove a program see Windows Help. »

    Message meaning, but the action of removing the software is not possible.  In the list of programs highlight Microsoft Mouse and keyboard software Center and you receive only one choice.  This choice is Uninstall, with no choice of repair .  Microsoft is lazy, or finally reached being just plain stupid.  When you click the installation here is the screen that opens:

    "Setup cannot continue because one or more of the required installation files are missing or corrupted. Rerun Setup from the CD-ROM of the software or any other facility reliable source. »

    If you cannot uninstall or repair the screwed version, then when you try to re - install, it won't let you move forward, and stipulates that you already have the software installed and it will not properly work, or will not uninstall or repair it properly.  You're essentially stuck between the hammer and the anvil.  I don't want these two double messages showing when I start my computer.

    For some strange reason, I think that this software is not properly tested to work on Windows 7.  I never install driver updates provided in Windows Update, but my wife has checked the box as an optional update.  Big mistake!

    What can I do to remove this Microsoft Mouse and keyboard software Center of my computer.  I downloaded the version 2.0.161.0 and 2.0.161.0 and won't install until the problem with the faulty software installed is removed.  WHERE IS THE BUTTON REPAIR?

    Thank you

    You must have the patience of Job to work for MSFT.

    I, too, have the same problem as Mr. Butler, w2 further complications:

    (1) assuming that it was a Win Update that caused the problem, I went to system restore to restore to an earlier time and was shocked to find that, even if my Protection system is activated, it was never a restore point created.
    (2) in addition to this annoying pop-up message, I have now lost everything except text in all my applications (Word, Publisher, etc.) and my browsers.  No display no graphics.

    I tried your method 1 fix and received a message that it only worls on 64 bit systems.  Mine is 32.

    I tried method 2 and tried to install; Rec'd msg saying I had to uninstall it first.

    I'm taking your advice, but so far I lost three hours on this and have gotten nowhere.  Suggestion, please...

    Hello!

    I have a problem with my Satellite A300D: when I press on 'y' or '5', I get a "y5" and when I press "n" or "b", I get a "nb".
    If I hold down y or 5, it seems y5yyy... and with n and b I get nbnnn...

    What you think could be the problem? Keyboard? Or some other hardware controller?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello

    It is difficult to say why this happens, but in your case I would like to connect an external keyboard and check this. You may notice the same behavior?

    If not, I think the case is clear: your keyboard internal doesn t work properly and you need a new. Therefore, you can contact a service provider authorized in your country.

    By the way: have you checked the keyboard input language?

  • Lenovo Y560: Strange keyboard problems

    Apart from the BSOD and random graphics driver accidents, I met a problem that I have never seen or heard of before. My keyboard types numbers. He's not numlock, and it isn't the key with numlock fn or the other. The entire keyboard. It will happen random and all entries of the keyboard, leading to sequential numbers. For example, typing "my cell phone is disappointing me" translates into 12 345678 90 1234567890123 45. This has happened repeatedly in the browser. Refreshing and reopening the browser usually solved the problem.

    However, the problem has worsened recently. When you play, hit without fail register as numbers. This means that instead of move, the character will be standing and change weapons / do whatever the number keys are glued to the. I tried with different programs and have had the same problems. Reopening the program and restarting haven't. I did a system restore that solved the problem for a short period, but the question comes back after a reboot. I really don't want to return this or reformat and try all possible solutions.

    keyboard replacement may solve your problem.

    If you have a valid warranty, contact lenovo support line and ask replacement free of charge.

  • Clean install 10.11.3 and strange Finder problems

    Hello.

    I had the Apple store wipe and install the last El Capitan on my Mac (because of unsolved problems of metadata/finder). Icloud, I have successfully downloaded a new photo library - it works and has all the things perfectly. Yay!

    I have restored my files from my Time Machine drive and they have been copied to the 'fees' - installation for most multimedia files and documents. Not many stuffl

    What does Finder:

    1 from the start it says my photo library has been opened and modified at boot time. (And never updates these same moments so I open it and change it.) However, it works as it should, update iCloud photo library as elements are added and added photo albums - it was what he did on 10.10.5 nuclear front.)

    2. other files nnever reflect the dates open if files are open but not modified. Some do it so modified. PDFs just don't update like never opened. If I change a file - as a random .jpg on my desktop or in Finder by turning - it updates such as amended. If I just open it, it will not refresh as 'last opening. Records will change if I open a file in the folder.

    It was the similar behavior on 10.10.5 we tent to set. Rather than simply update, I started cleaning.

    Any wisdom? It wasn't an easy thing for a new user to spend to have the same problem. Does anyone else know this?

    He is a researcher? It's the OS? My hardware meets the tests of Apple.

    Thank you

    H

    MacBook Pro, OS X El Capitan (10.11.3)

    Looks like a normal behavior. If you simply open a file and then close it, no date of update should change. If you change the file, and then save it, the date of update changes.

    Open last date also changes if you save without changing anything, as if you make changes and then save. Simply open and close a file while doing nothing do not cause the last open to change.

    These are the default. There is no change without changing the OS X itself. If you wish, you can post your request to Apple's Feedback. Most likely, however, it will not be changed or will not be a very high priority item.

  • 7 - taskbar of flow and touch keyboard problems

    I have a Signature Edition Stream 7 8.1 running. Three questions that I couldn't find answers elsewhere:

    (1) whereas on the desktop, how to display the task bar? It remains hidden and I don't want to set preferences so that it's always been. I touch all along the bottom of the screen, scroll to the top of the bottom, etc... and no luck.

    (2) the keyboard Stream 7 does not return to its place when files are opened, so I can't rename files, search for documents from the office, etc...  The keyboard appears when Chrome/IE is open, but not when I do research or changes to the current system.

    (3) associated with #2, where the program files? I'm trying to choose the Kindle app to open a personal MOBI file, but there is no way to look up this request because I do not have access to the keyboard.

    Thank you

    (1) the touch screen does not detect anything a few pixels at the border. slide windows screens still work, but the bar auto-hide tasks will not.

    (2) the keyboard is not automatic for normal programs, you will need to use the taskbar to open the keyboard when you need it.

    3) press the windows key and then drag the subway display upwards.
