SOURCE: problem with the novo key.

Lenovo has a support site that you can go to, which I have linked to below. I have already narrowed down the pages so that you can scroll down to the keyboard section, and just click on the appropriate link. This will install drivers (basically what runs the novo key) that will fix your problem.

http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/MIGR-68104.html

The correct driver should be located around the middle of the page or towards the bottom.

Understand and use (or make sure they’re turned off) keyboard Accessibility Options. There are several types of help for those with typing difficulties, namely:
StickyKeys is an accessibility feature designed for people who have difficulty holding down two or more keys at a time. When a shortcut requires a key combination such as CTRL+P, StickyKeys will enable you to press one key at a time instead of pressing them simultaneously.
FilterKeys: You can set Windows to ignore keystrokes that occur in rapid succession, or keystrokes that are held down for several seconds unintentionally.
Bounce Keys: If you bounce your fingers on keys inadvertently, Bounce Keys will ignore repeated keystrokes until some time has passed. You choose the time period.
Repeat Keys and Slow Keys: The computer will ignore brief keystrokes according to the time limits you set. To access these Options and turn them off or on, go to your Control Panel– click Start >Settings >Control Panel >Accessibility Options.

By default it opens to the keyboard tab. If you are experiencing a sudden onset of bizarre typing behavior, your first step is to visit here and ensure that there are no checks in the three checkboxes, which indicates these Options are in use.
I mentioned that shortcuts ‘activate’ these features — such as Tab+Enter, and a couple of Alt+a letter– and so you may have turned them on unintentionally.
If you do have some difficulty with your typing, such as happens when a Mr. Arthur Itis comes to visit, or/and if you have tremors, here is where you can enable these aids and tweak their settings to get the most benefit from them. Click on the “Settings” button to see the choices. Below is the FilterKeys Settings dialogue.

In the case mentioned, my client had first held down the Shift key long enough to activate FilterKeys (because a finger “rests” there). The lady was an extremely fast typist, and this setting ignored her strokes as being too short. Since she has no use for this tool, I recommended that she uncheck the top checkbox and disable the activating shortcut.

This screenshot shows the settings for StickyKeys, and unless you have trouble holding down more than one key at the same time — such as Ctrl+Alt+Del to activate Task Manager — I suggest you uncheck the top checkbox here as well.

You have the numlock pressed. Look for its key in the top right, and change it so the display for numlock is turned off.

How can I take a screenshot on my laptop computer

What laptop?
What Operating System?

In windowss you can use the "Print Screen" function by pressing the "PrtScn" key on an extended keyboard. If you hold the "Alt"-key while pressing the PrtScn-key, it takes a snapshot of the currently active window.

Then you have to open a paint or Word document. Now you can paste the screenshot.

If you use Windows 7, click the Start button and type "Snipping Tool". This will start the built-in screenshot software.

My samsung n150 plus keyapd is not working properly

It sounds like a key gets stuck on your keyboard, which keeps sending signals to your computer; especially as it seems fine using an external keyboard. When the laptop is off, try typing on each key a number of times, especially the 'suspect' ones, m and 0 (?)
Have you spilt Coke or coffee on it at any time??

Keyboard problem

On laptops, it is common for crumbs and dust/debris to get under the keys on the keyboard. Try giving the keyboard a clean with a vacuum cleaner. If this doesn't work, you will most probably need to replace the keyboard, it isn't difficult or expensive.

Whenever i type d ]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]] gets typed automatically and now my sshif key i not working for some key.its so irritating and when im switchin ]]g on my system it goes on boot manager.please help...

Hi!

To determine wether it is a hardware (keyboard itself) or an OS problem, plug an external keyboard to your laptop (you didn't mention the manufacturer or model of your laptop, but even if it doesn't have a PS2 connector, it has almost for sure an USB connector to plug the keyboard in).

Now, if the external keyboard works OK it means no OS problem.


Hope it helped.

Hi all , My HP laptop auto shuts down when i open microsoft words , why is this so ? can somebody pls help me ? I need todo some work on it urgently!! , Thanks !!

Hi,

You will need to press the F8 key before windows starts to load then disable
the auto restart on error. That will allow you to read the error message and
someone may be able to guide you.
You could also try booting from the XP CD and run the recovery console (if
that's an option) once in the recovery console type chkdsk /r to correct any
errors & try booting again.

OR

Disable automatic restart on system failure. This should help by
allowing time to write down the STOP code properly. Right click on
the My Computer icon on the Desktop and select Properties, Advanced,
Start-Up and Recovery, System Failure and uncheck box before
Automatically Restart.

Do not re-enable automatic restart on system failure until you have
resolved the problem. Check for variants of the Stop Error message.

An alternative is to keep pressing the F8 key during Start-Up and select
option - Disable automatic restart on system failure.

If you are using a wireless keyboard and the F8 key does not work
substitute a wired keyboard and mouse for this exercise only.

Please prost your feedback.

While starting my Sony VAIO laptop, it beeps, (short toned but continuous) and pressing Alt / Ctrl/Del or function keys stops that noise , then system is getting booted. Every key is working except 'q' and...

Yes. Get a new one! The keys are stuck when you apply too much pressure on them, and check for foreign objects between the keys. Use compressed air first, if that don't work you have the option to spend money to get it diagnosis at a computer shop or buy a new one.
