There's already a problem w/ the keyboard's connection to the motherboard inside your laptop. You need to call Dell about this, some parts may need to be replaced or the connectors needs to be connected properly inside your laptop.

Capital letter on keyboard to write password

On a standard Qwerty keyboard the Caps lock or hold down the shift key to get a capital letter.

Touch screen keyboards are a bit more complex - mine starts with capitals and after the first letter reverts to lowercase and the shift key has to be touched again for another upper case letter.

My Dell laptop keyboard settings have apparently been changed-I have to hold down the Fn key to get the letters on the keyboard instead of the Fn items indicated on the keyboard. How do I fix it?

Maybe this is the result of inadvertently turning on "Sticky keys" (see the Accessibility Control Panel Help file). Try holding the Fn key down for several seconds with no other key pressed to see if that turns off the Fn lock-on. After that you can disable the Sticky Keys function in Accessibility.

How do I lighten my sceen? Acer Travelmate 4000

There is a FUNCTION key on the keyboard, usually in blue and usually labeled . You will use this in conjuction with another key. Often laptop keyboards have a second "function" on them - indicated by a little blue colored letter, number or icon. The brightness button would be one that looked like a little o with lines coming out - kind of like a kid's drawing of a sun : )

To use the second function of the keys with the little blue letter, number or icon, you need to press and hold the Fn key and then tap the key you need - in this case the little sun. While continuing to hold down the Fn key, keep tapping the sun key until the brightness is as you like.


If you cannot brighten the screen with the above steps,and the LCD is faint, you may need to replace the Inverter.


If I could be of further assistance, let me know. If this helps or solves the issue, please rate it and give a testimonial for my response

Thanks, Joe

Heres a tip the light on the receiver will blink onced pressed and if you press the connect button of the keyboard the blinking will stop which means that the receiver picked the keyboard out.... hope it helps
