Is there a keyboard that lights up that is compatible with my laptop?

My note book has the copper colored keys, and the shadows my fingers make, makes it hard to see what key I'm hitting. Anew keyboard with lighted keys would greatly enhance my experience. Any thoughts or maybe some product numbers I should be looking at?

Hi there! asking for keyboard lights! some of the solutions for ur problem are:
1. use external laptop keyboard with lights that are available in nearby PC store or electronics store else u may try it on online stores that may even offer deals.
2.Use USB light that illuminates light on keyboards that are more cheaper than keyboard replacement
3.If you are a DIY enthusiast and have hobby, and known knowledge of electronics try making LED illuminare from Ur laptop usb dongle out it may hav 4 pins say positive, negative, data positive and data negative and it supply around 5V supply with 1 amp current. try it may cost more cheaper than two solutions as i said above.
4. use low power bed lamp that focus on ur laptop keys.

thats all bro! Have a nice day! bye! any question : [email protected]

I can't post a key to MS Office as that is considered piracy. I can however give you a link to a 60 day free trial of office

http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/products/HA101741481033.aspx

After the free trial expires, a license must be purchased.

If you have a legitimate copy of Office Home and Student edition, the product key is on the CD case. If you lost the case, you might be able to contact Microsoft for a new key (For a fee)

SOURCE: some keyboard keys not working

Sounds like water or another liquid has infiltrated the keyboard under those keys causing, a bad connection between , the keys and the motherboard. if its under warranty take it in for repair. If not lookinto getting a non functional model like your laptop and swapping out the motherboard.

SOURCE: HP 550 Note book will not start

  1. Take out your battery and the power button for about 60secs.
  2. Start the laptop using the Adapter [without the battery]
  3. Lighten up your laptop...remove any external device attached [printer,scanner,pen drives etc.].
  4. It could also be a RAM problem,try changing the RAM if you have two start with one and exchange them.
After that when the system starts you can do the system restore START--ALL PROGRAMS--ACCESSORIES--SYSTEM TOOLS--SYSTEM RESTORE to restore it back to an earlier date when laptop was ok. THEN LATER ON PUT THE BATTERY BACK IN.
  • Try restarting after an hour gap.
  • If this doesn't solve your problem call the company people.Their might be a Video Card problem or any other internal hardware problem.

C...Press both the "Fn" and touchpad Function key at the same time to reactive the touchpad on your laptop.
Move your finger along the touchpad to verify that it works. Press the combination at any time to disable the touchpad again.
