Why it beep with a few key combos?

Hi, I have a T60 thinkpad with windows xp professional.

There is this really annoying feature with my lenovo: whenever I press "shift + F + T" together, my laptop beeps (beep system) which is really annoying, especially when you're on a library. I work with fast fourier transformations (FFT), so you can see why it's irritating.

Anyone know why this happens and how I can remove it?

Thank you for your help

not plug-and-play > beep. change to disabled

I think so. I have not changed in some time.

  • Problems installing Microsoft Office 2010 with multiple product keys

    Hello, I'm having problems install the version of Microsoft Office 2010 Home and Student trial.  I had a few problems with the initial installation 2 times and finally understood why (firewall, duh!).  In any case, I have 3 registration keys, I tried to get a 3rd, it gave me an error while it was almost finished to install, telling me he had a problem with the key, as I entered. I have already run the utility to remove all traces of installs. Should I go to the 'My account' and try redownloading and one of them (previous attempts with the trial keys) and if so, only one, first one or the more recent? I tried with the last being when he gave me the error message.

    Thank you!

  • TouchSmart 610: TouchSmart 610 lights. I have a set of 5 beeps with a yellow light above the power button.

    I keep my office earlier this morning with the entry of the normal shutdown process. When I went to reactivate tonight all I get is a set of 5 beep with a yellow light flashing above the power switch. Repeat this five times then beeps stop and only yellow continuous flashing. I can hear and feel the hard drive running. I tried to unplug the power supply and then plugging, but the same thing happens. If I push and hold the power button on, it sounds like the hard drive stops and restarts. The normal blue light comes on for a few seconds then turns off and is replaced by the yellow flashing light. All you have no idea as to what may be the issue?

    Hello:

    Normally 5 beeps means there is a problem with the memory.

    I suggest that you remove and reinstall the memory modules and blow up if this doesn't fix the problem, if your PC has two memory modules, an and see if the beep disappears.

    If this is the case, remove this module and specify the first condition in you removed and if the beep begins once again find the defective memory chip.

    If it is not, remove the module and put the other in you deleted and if the ringing stops, you have found the faulty memory chip.

    Then replace the faulty memory module by one with the same specifications.

    If the ringing continues despite trying these steps, and then either the two chips of memory are bad (unlikely), or the motherboard has a problem.

  • Sticker with the product key Windows under the laptop is unreadable

    Hello Toshiba Help Center

    Please help me solve this problem

    Three years ago, I bought a laptop Toshiba with Windows Vista preinstalled. I also received a DVD with her recovery. I now want to reinstall Windows and completely format the hard drive - however, the sticker with the product key Windows under the laptop is unreadable. So what I did... I formatted my laptop for windows 7 and after a few months, I want to recover my product key and install windows vista pre - with the original product key that sound now
    unreadable...

    Is it possible to get it back by, my laptop series No, or...
    Best regards, TOSHIBA
    IM bluebird.jeff

    Hello, Jeff

    At first, I must say that it is not toshiba Help Center, but user forum created by Toshiba, so if you wait for the response from Toshiba people here you are in the wrong place.
    In any case, in this forum, you can pick up some very useful information and a lot of people here can help you with your problems.

    Return to described the issue.
    Unfortunately you do not understand how it works with the product key and Windows Setup, so I'll try to help you with this.
    Each computer toshiba laptop comes with preinstalled operating system (recovery image) and the product key at the bottom of your laptop belongs to this version. With other words: when you buy the new laptop, you have to pay for hardware, operating system and a license for this preinstalled OS. Product key at the bottom is not a kind of universal product key and cannot be used for activation of another version of Windows.

    You can use the delivered Toshiba recovery disc that contains mage replicated several times and each time you will have activated the operating system. When you use the Microsoft disk for the installation of the OS you must have valid product key which belongs to this particular version.

    In your case product key is for Vista, and you cannot use it for Win7 activation. This product key is... unnecessary.

    If you have any other questions you are welcome.

    Help, please. This is beyond frustrating. each key will beep when they are affected, but if I touch it will type. Please help with ideas.

    Hi jerry dorchester.

    If the computer will beep while you type, key levers or sticky keys are active. The ToggleKeys can emit a beep when you press the lock keys. The function StickyKeys can emit a beep when you press the CTRL, Alt, shift, and locking. Use the following steps to disable the ToggleKeys:

    1. click on Start, and then type ease in the search field.
    2. Select from the list the easy access programs.
    3. scroll and select make the keyboard easier to use.
    4. If selected, remove the selection to turn on sticky keys.
    5. click on Configure keys to sticky.
    6 remove the selection to activate StickyKeys by pressing SHIFT five times.
    7. click on Save.
    8 remove the selection to activate the ToggleKeys.
    9. If selected, remove the selection to activate the ToggleKeys in now key Numlock for 5 seconds.
    10. click on Save.

    Check if it works.

    For the keyboard typing slowing down everything by typing you need reduce the time between the characters pressed.

    To change the delay before keyboard characters repeat

    1. open the keyboard by clicking the Start button, clicking on Control Panel, hardware and sound, tap keyboard.

    2 by the repetition of the characters, move the repeat delay slider to the left to increase the amount of time that you must press and hold before the keyboard character repeats. Move the slider to the right to decrease the amount of time before repeating characters.

  • Request a product key after 3 years. Product included with Dell original keys do not work.

    Over the past two days, Windows started asking me to validate my product code.  This, despite the fact that I had the same OS since May 2007.  I do not know what prompted the change, but I have two codes of product on the CD provided by Dell.  One is for the OS, the other is for Microsoft Office professional 2007.  The only other CD received with the system is Dell XPS drivers and resources.  No Microsoft Product Code is acceptable for this verification process.

    Which MAY have been prompted by installing a new motherboard - the previous Dell motherboard had to be replaced due to several bad capacitors.  However, not sure how this affects the o/s installed previously.  The computer works in a manner consistent with the change of the motherboard for about 2 weeks now.  The new motherboard is a 2.67 image system and RAM has been improved at the same time to 4 GB.   I thought I would include these changes even if they seem not related to the evolution of the o/s.

    Thank you.

    Thanks for the replies, I will examine in detail a little later.

    No, in answer to your question - the new motherboard is not made by Dell.  Dell had a problem a few years with the defective capacitors - although there are a few motherboards of Dell stock, there is no interest to replace an original motherboard with bad capacitors, with a new Board of Directors with the same problems.  Dell has replaced bad motherboards a couple of years, but mine had not blown at the time, and I'm not "excluded".

    In addition, the replacement with Dell motherboard is $400 + US dollars for a dual core (and comes with the same potential problem of capacitor), while I was able to get a new card with a quad core locally for about $250.  Is not supposed for several points of view to do otherwise, I think.

    The system doesn't seem to work with a few minor quirks, what are the consequences of inaction?  I can't afford to raise more money on this problem, as I am a student full time and cannot afford to replace the operating system...

    Provided by the Dell original OS keycode will OPERATE ONLY with a card mother Dell. You can buy a new key code which, by chance, usually comes with the installation media.
     
    You may have saved money on the Exchange and got yourself a better computer, but still you have to pay $400 after buying a new operating system. Look on the bright side, for $400, you have a more powerful computer. Consider making Windows 7.
