Try changing the Typematic Rate
Go to the BIOS configuration and set the :-
Typematic Rate (Chars/Sec) to 6
and
Typematic Delay (Msec) to 250

Replace the keyboard. Something is wrong with the encoder chip inside, and new keyboards are so inexpensive there is no point trying to repair one when it goes bad.

To disable or enable the Fn-functions, try locating them in BIOS using this guide.

Unplug the keyboard and switch on the computer. If the computer boots up OK then there may be a stuck button on the keyboard. press each button to see if any feel different to normal. You may be able to repair it by taking it apart, otherwise replace the keyboard.

Hi a_hedges,

Sleep is a power-saving state that allows a computer to quickly resume full-power operation (typically within several seconds) when you want to start working again. Putting your computer into the sleep state is like pausing a DVD player-the computer immediately stops what it's doing and is ready to start again when you want to resume working.

When a computer is in Sleep mode, the power light is blinking and you get a blank screen like it's turned OFF.

On most computers, you can resume working by pressing your computer's power button. However, not all computers are the same. You might be able to wake your computer by pressing any key on the keyboard, clicking a mouse button, or opening the lid on a laptop. Check the documentation that came with your computer or go to the manufacturer's website.

Hope this helps.

Hi, First press the button print screen from the keyboard and then open paint.
Click on Start ---> then Programs and All Programs ---> then Accessories and then Paint.
Now just paste (Ctrl+V) and now you can save as JPEG, GIF or BMP etc.
You can cut it where you want and you can use it as picture for tutorial etc.

Good Luck

Set your operating system to use a keyboard layout that has the Euro key on shift-5.See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keyboard_layout for the keyboard layouts.  One option is that you can use US-international layout and use Alt-Gr (Right alt) + 5 to get the Euro.  Otehrwise, you need to pick a specific European Keyboard layout that suits your need.

Here's the Microsoft way - note that all Win7 keyboard shortcuts begin with CTRL-ALT-(your shortcut key here).

Note also that a desktop shortcut must already exist to which to be invoked by the keyboard shortcut.....

The way the Internet community does it:
www.autohotkey.com - freeware - allows you to "package" a number of
keystrokes into a "keyboard macro" and invoke that macro thru
the use of a "hotkey." Keyboard macros can be as short as one
function key, but some Win7 function keys cannot be ove-written, such as F5

Ah - the START button is not on the keyboard - its on the Microsoft Windows Taskbar, which is the
line at the bottom of the screen you're reading now. The START button is at the lower left-hand
side of your screen - it has a little "Windows" 4-color flag on it, and says "start".

The way to operate the START button is to move your pointer until the pointer is on the START button,
and then "left-click" on it, which is to say you simply press the mouse button on the left side of the
mouse.

In other words, the Windows start button is virtual (screen-based), and not physical (on the keyboard).
All Windows "buttons" and "tabs" are found on the screen - with one exception - the "Windows" key,
(found next to the ALT key on your keyboard) - its physical. But you'll hardly ever use it.
