Notebook key presses are slow to respond
If there is a short delay from the time a key is pressed to the time the character displays on the screen, the Filter Keys function might be activated. The Filter Keys function provides a greater range of key press options to fine-tune key delays and prevent inadvertent key presses. To disable Filter Keys and return to the default keyboard behavior, use the following steps:

1. Click Start , and type keyboard in the Search box. Then select Change how your keyboard works under Control Panel.
2. Remove the selection from Turn on Filter Keys. Then click Set up Filter Keys.
   
3. Remove the check next to Turn on Filter Keys when SHIFT is pressed for eight seconds.
   
4. Click Apply, click OK, and then close the Ease of Access Center.
   The keys should be more responsive.

Pressing a notebook key once types several characters
If two or more characters appear when pressing a key, use the following steps to adjust the key repeat delay:

1. Click Start , and type keyboard in the Search box. Then click Keyboard under Control Panel.
   The Keyboard Properties page opens.
2. Set the Repeat delay slider to Long. Click Apply, and then click OK.
   

Notebook beeps while typing
If the computer sometimes beeps while you are typing, Toggle Keys or Sticky Keys is active. Toggle Keys causes the computer to emit a beep when the Lock keys are pressed. Sticky Keys causes the computer to emit a beep when the Ctrl, Alt, Shift, or Lock key is pressed. Use the following steps to disable Sticky Keys and Toggle Keys:

1. Click Start , and type keyboard in the Search box. Then click Change how your keyboard works under Control Panel.
2. If selected, remove the check next to Turn on Sticky Keys. Then click Set up Sticky keys.

   If selected, remove the selection from Turn on Toggle Keys by holding down the NUM LOCK key for five seconds.
   
6. Click Apply, click OK, and then close the Ease of Access Center.
   The beeps no longer sound.

Wrong characters appear when typing, changing keyboard language, or Dvorak
If the wrong characters appear when you are typing, or you are trying to use a different keyboard, use the following steps to synchronize Windows to the type of keyboard you are using:

1. Click Start , and type region into the Search field. Click Region and Language from the search results.
2. Click the Keyboards and Languages tab, and then click Change Keyboards.
   
   The Text Services and Input Languages page opens.
3. Click Add.
   
4. Select the keyboard you want to use, and click OK.
   
5. From the Text Services and Input Languages page, select the new keyboard in the list and click Move up until it is first in the list. This makes it the default keyboard.
   
6. Click OK. You can now use the new keyboard.
   If you find that the new keyboard service works correctly and you do not want to use the other keyboard, repeat these steps and Remove the keyboard service that you do not need.

Hi,

How to turn off Sticky Keys: disable the Ease of Access feature
Tip: use the Windows Ease of Access Center






How to turn off Sticky Keys: what are Sticky Keys and why turn them off?
Sticky Keys is a Windows Ease of Access feature that makes it possible to use keyboard shortcuts or type capital letters without needing to press more than one key at once. Normally, you'd hold down the Shift key while pressing a letter to type a capital, or hold down the Ctrl key while pressing 'S' to save a document. It's even trickier if you want to use a shortcut such as Ctrl-Alt-Del or Ctrl-Shift-Esc.

With Sticky Keys, you can press Ctrl, Shift or Alt, let go and then press another key - Windows will interpret this as pressing two keys together. You should also hear a beep if you have speakers connected.

That's great if you're disabled and can't press two keys at once, but what if you want to disable Sticky Keys?

How to turn off Sticky Keys in Windows 8
You can't press Shift another five times. Instead, you need to bring up the Start menu (or Start screen in Windows 8) by pressing the Windows key. Now type "ease of access" and click on Ease of Access in the list of results.

If you're using Windows 8, you need to click on the Ease of Access Keyboard settings result, and then it's a simple case of sliding the Sticky Keys toggle to 'off'.

If this does not help you. Let us know the below details to understand the issue bettery.

perform the following on the keyboard

1. On the keyboard press the windows logo (image below)
   
2. keep holding the windows key whiles you press the key U key in addition
3. You should have a list of options.............choose on screen keyboard and with your mouse you can login and keep using your pc without a physical mouse.

On Microsoft Windows, using the "United States-International" keyboard setting, it can be typed by holding down the Alt-Gr key and pressing "L". It can also be typed under any keyboard setting by holding down the [Alt] key while typing 0216 or 0248 on the numeric keypad

your laptop should have a blue FN key (Function) that will work in conjunction with other blue keys on teh keyboard. most laptops this is located in the lower left, next to the ctrl key. Look to the right top on your keyboard for a one labeled numlk. hold down teh left FN key and tap the right num lk key and you just turned off the numbers lock.

There is another option that is a little more intense - if interested let me know that laptop type you have.

Try to press Fn key, hold it down and press the Numlock key.

hold shift and press control once

The reason these beeps are happening is because there might be a key that is slightly depressed enough to where its registering keystrokes. Move your fingers all over the keyboard and see if you the beeps stop after you do that. If it still is going on then that means your keyboard is bad and will need to be replaced.

u have problem with ur key board remove the dust in the key board its not problem with ur computer its a just ur keyboard
