when you press the caps lock key it appears on the monitor for a couple of seconds

No, The 671T has an LGA775 socket and the I3 processor needs (depending on generation) either a LGA1150, 1155, or 1156 socket.
The 671T can support Core 2 Duo/Pentium D/Pentium 4/Celeron D processors that use the LGA775 socket.

There should be a small wireless dongle that cam with the mouse & keyboard, generally a small plastic piece on the end of a USB connector. Plug this into one of the USB ports in the back of the computer.

you have 2 take it apart ma man some time they are under the keyboard or not to far from the ram but in most cases you have to open it

Go to Amazon.com and search for an aftermarket keyboard for you make and mdl. It would be a cheep fix (most likely under $25.00) if it doesn't come with instructions google replace keyboard and add your make and model. Most keyboards are held in by 4 or 6 screws accessed on the bottom of your computer. After you remove the screws open the computer and lift the old one carefully until you see a ribbon (flat wide wire) of cable there will be either a connector on the end that will lift out or at the computer a plastic connector attached to the computer that has a piece that will click away and the ribbon will come out. Put the new one in and put the screws back. Reboot and cross your fingers. Or you can use a USB or wireless keyboard, but that's not to portable.
Worst case get into the virtual keyboard thru access ability settings and you can use the mouse to type the letters your keyboard will not type. Good luck, Kevin

VIRUS : ScreenJacker more likely .
Plug into another monitor using a VGA to VGA cable , boot up and try to run MALWAREBYTES before the virus kills the keyboard and mouse too .
Good luck......................
P.s. Try RKill too , if you can find it .

First you must figure out where the problem is, in the keyboard or in the laptop. To do this borrow a usb keyboard and try to write letters, if it works then the problem is in the Pc not it is in the keyboard. If it's in the keyboard you might be using the lock num key, deactivate it.
Now if your pc has the problem it must be a problem with the drivers, try re installing them. Lenovo machines are really stable. I'm almost sure it's a problem with the drivers.

Hi!

Sorry you can't, intel pentium P series has different socket than Core i3 series.
And also, notebook is lowcost build exactly for the slower processor, putting there stronger processor will produce more heat, and possible overheating.

i think there may be some problem in the keyboard plug point in CPU. plz check that any other keyboard is working in ur computer or not?
