• Reinstalled XP on laptop, now the keyboard keys are not mapped correctly

  Hello world

  I recently reinstalled Windows XP on my laptop because it became mega sucky and slow after three years to have. In any case, the keys on the keyboard are not how they were originally. For example, pressing SHIFT + ' originally produced @, now is '. '. Also initially produced shift + 2 "now it's @." There are a few questions like these across the keyboard. Could someone point me in the right direction to solve this?

  Thank you very much!

  Function keys are used to things dirrent, depending on whether you are simply Windows or a program of work, and if you work in a program, what program it is?

• Floppy disks to install Windows 7 and the product keys are exclusive to each other?

  Floppy disks to install Windows 7 and the product keys are exclusive to each other?  Or can I use a disc that I have to restore the windows on a second laptop and activate it with a different product key?  It is not a question to find out how many users I can put in place, but whether the disk and product key are mutually exclusive.

  As long as the product key matches the edition, it should work perfectly, no exclusivity.

• When you use a wired keyboard, the first key I press is ignored and the following keys are recognized.

  I use Windows 7 Ultimate, with automatic updates.  This just happened recently.  I have not had this problem in the past.  I recently had problems to install a wireless adapter, but the issue has been resolved.  When I login, the password is recognized (apparently don't ignore the first key), but when you use an application, such as Google search, the first character is lost.  If I press the first button, it works.  This seems to be the same in any application.  Thanks for any help you can provide.

• Explanation of the keyboard keys

  What is there of nowhere that the keys of the keyboard on a HP Pavilion series g can be explained to me.   There are a lot of buttons that I don't use, but can be useful if only I knew what function they perform.

  I'm really sorry to say that I can't do on the keyboard of your photo. I can barely see the letters, still less symbols and function keys and others. I saved the picture on my computer and I tried to do jump up to see better, but it is just too small.

  HP Support Assistant: I don't know exactly, what went wrong, but my advice would be to uninstall the program, reboot your computer and then reinstall the latest version on the web. On the next page for more information, see the first post:

  If you try and it doesn't work for you, please post a new thread with your question about HP Support Assistant in the forum of the laptop. I think that "the laptop (for example Windows 8) operating systems and software" would be more appropriate.

  

• Portege R700 - how to clean the keyboard keys?

  Hello
  I have a Toshiba Portege R700 - and I spilled coke on a small part of the keyboard.
  Not surprisingly, the two or three keys are now "sticky."

  Is it as simple as access to the keyboard and the relevant keys of cleaning?
  Or is it not that simple?
  If I can do this, is there a pictorial guide on access to the keyboard?

  I'm reluctant to open first without consulting the tech manual.

  Thank you

  Hello

  In my opinion, you will not be able to clean it properly. Coke is full of sugar. It can be complicated, but you can try it.

  In the worst cases, you must exchange he keyboard.
  So what you need to do is to remove Cap key for each critical button. It is set with small farmers in plastic. Just take something like the credit card but more stabile, put under the key cap and try to remove it. Under the key CAP is little key mechanism. Try to clean it with a damp cloth. Be careful and clean without a lot of pressure.

  When you think it's OK place the key cap and press it very gently of course.

  You'll hear the clicking noise and the cp key should be up again.

  I hope that you will be able to make it work again.
  Please post comments.

• Satellite U300-152: keyboard keys are mixed up

  I have a newly purchased U300-152 with OS vista home premium 32-bit already installed by the distributor in Saudi Arabia.
  I observe some of the keys on the keyboard are mixed to the top for example shift + 2 should give us @ and shift +' (apostrophe) should give us "(quote), but the reverse is Maj sense + 2 gives me" (quote) and shift +' (apostrophe) gives me @

  Any solution for that to be corrected.
  What should I do?

  Thanks in advance.

  Hey Buddy

  Don t worry, it s not a serious problem ;)
  It seems that you keyboard language settings don't match the keyboard layout.

  You can solve this problem very easily by changing the language settings in the control panel-> Regional Options control & language-> language-> details tab

  I guess that you keyboard language settings are set to English * (UK) * '. '.
  But maybe you should choose an English * (US) * to assign the right signals to the single keyboard keys.

  Check it out ;)

• In my view, the shortcut keys are enabled on my laptop.

  If I try other things, type something.  For example, if I press the 'l' key, my computer off & I sign again.  If I hit the "s" key, a box will open; If I try to type "who" I am only able to type 'w' & then nothing happens.  I press certain keys & other things to happen.  In my view, "short cuts" is on, but I don't know how to turn it off.  Help, please.

  Hello

  There is no shortcuts that I'm familiar with that results in what you see with the keys (in combination with the ctrl/alt/win keys). I am more inclined to think that your keyboard is damaged or that a key is stuck.

  If possible, I would try to plugged a USB keyboard on the system and see if it behaves correctly. If so, then you will have the laptop brought to a technician to have the existing card replaced. Consult the manufacturer if it is under warranty.

  Keyboard shortcuts are enabled in the Control Panel/ease of Access center in facilitating the use if you want to look at the keyboard. Your symptoms do not match the expected behavior, so this may not resolve your problem.

• A few specific characters appear only after the introduction to the keyboard key twice in Inspiron 15R 5520

  Dear all,

  I am facing a very strange problem in my Inspiron 15R 5520 I bought in August 2012. There are a few characters that only appear after typing the corresponding button on the keyboard twice.

  for example if I want to type a tilde (~) character, I have to press the fear side of the number key 1. But, if I press it once, nothing appears on the screen. If I press this key twice, then I get two characters tilde (~). Same behavior occurs with four other characters. Below is a list of characters that do not show by pressing the button once, rather than twice.

  ~

  `

  ^

  '

  "

  Surprisingly, when I was typing shift + 6 in the field of the composition of this forum, then the sign of the (^) character appeared after press the key once. Whereas, if I try in Notepad or Word Pad or the Mozila FireFox address bar, I have to press the key two times so that character appears twice, and then delete the extra character.

  Can you help me please?

  Thank you

  Gerard

  The problem is with the keyboard language setting. You may have selected English (International) while setting up your laptop / desktop at the beginning.

  Go to control panel of-> all items from Panel of control-> region and language-> Formats.

  Change Format English (United States). It should solve your problem.

• Why my tab on the keyboard key does not work since the upgrade to 16.0 FF?

  Noticed this trying to get around on your website, GMail etc so that I can move from one field to (example: in the field in Gmail, hit the tab key on the keyboard to move to the field of the object).
  Inadmissible tab button.
  Safari and Chrome have this ability. Obviously something has occurred that I updated today to 16.0 and yet I was indeed in the 15.x.

  This key is important for speed for a daily work. Please tell us how can I re - activate its features.

  Thank you.

  COR - el,

  Just updated tonight at 16.0.1 and voila, the problem has been resolved without being too technical.

  Wanted to thank you for your help.

• HP ENVY laptop - 15 - ae101no: control of the Volume on the keyboard keys do not work!

  Hello

  Volume control keys had suddenly stopped working, and I have no idea why. I have the model HP ENVY laptop - 15-ae101no (ENERGY STAR). Could you please help me fix it? Thank you!

  Hello

  Try the following.

  Download Realtek HD Audio Installer on the link below and save it in your downloads folder.

  http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp74501-75000/sp74867.exe

  When finished, press and hold the Windows key and press R

  In the run window, type devmgmt.msc and press to enter.

  In Device Manager, expand sound, video and game controllers.  Right click on the Realtek device and select uninstall - also, you should get a command prompt to delete the current driver, check the box allow this and then proceed to uninstall.

  When you are finished, download and reinstall the Chipset driver at the following link.

  http://ftp.HP.com/pub/SoftPaq/sp72001-72500/sp72105.exe

  When the reinstallation of Chipset is finished, stop the laptop.

  Disconnect the power adapter and then hold button power supply for 30 seconds, then release.

  Plug the power adapter.

  Robinet tap away at the key esc that you start the computer to launch the Start Menu, and then select f10 to open the bios menu.  Press f9 to load the default values (sometimes it is f5, but the menu below indicates the correct key), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press ENTER.  Press f10 to save the setting and still use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and press on enter.

  When windows has reloaded, open your download folder, right click on the installer of Realtek and select "Run as Administrator" to launch the installation.  Once this done, reboot the laptop and let windows load completely for a few minutes before checking.

  Kind regards

• Re: Satellite P300-276: on the right side of the keyboard keys become numbers when NUM LOCK

  When I commit to NUM LOCK keys on the right the number keys on the main keyboard also become as well as on the numeric keypad on the right.
  I tried pressing Fn and NUM LOCK at the same time as on a not extended keyboard, but that makes no difference.

  I also tried different input languages and keyboard styles.
  I can't test with an external keyboard, because I do not have. I downgraded from vista to XP.
  I don't know if this makes a difference because I did not notice this after the downgrade.

  Any ideas?

  Hello

  Sorry, but I think I put t understand your question
  Made, it is whether the digital LOCKING is enabled (FN + F11) and buttons; U, I, O, J, K, L and M becomes to numbers:
  you 4
  I have 5
  O to 6
  J 1
  K to 2
  L 3
  M 0

  If you press FN + F11 again then the buttons must be on back letters...
