When I start my HP G60-104CA, the keyboard or touchpad ( on CPU) doesn't work. I have to go into the keyboard in Control Panel and just click on a few things (without changing) and click OK and it comes back. (the keyboard not the touchpad) Also, there is a beep everyonce in a while. (like I was holding down a key for too long) Anyone???
Bad keyboard, buy a new one.
bad HP driver for it. missing,/bad/wrong or corrupted
is this XP, what OS is there?
why post lacking OS name, windows what?
those are the simple causes.
if you take a boot disk/ or mem stick with linux live on it
and it fails,. the keyboard is bad.
if not the OS is corrupted, a 5 min test, and bingo... why/

either the keyboard/mouse (2 in 1 on laptops) drivers are invalid in which case you can go to http://support.acer.com and download the keyboard/mouse drivers and/or utility.
Let me know if this works for ya,
Have a great and safe Sunday !
SOURCE: touchpad or keyboard not working
This should help. If not look for the Dismantling Guide on my blog to check if the keyboard and touchpad is properly connected.

Sure, buy a new keyboard. You may have to install the drivers for it but that's pretty simple.

Restart your computer is the best bet.

The beep is completely random and doesn't sound that long ( about as long as it takes you to say BEEP... I just get the beeps when I'm in the OS. THe main worry for me is why does the keyboard jam up? I can get it to work if I do the following.
- open MS Word
-Open the Keyboard screen of of Control PAnel
- Go into device propertiesn and click out by pressing on the OK button.
- then it types on word
I don't get it ... did a driver rollback and upadate and still nothing. Could it be a new virus... I ran McAffe and it didn't pick up anything...
Yeah When I also press Caps lock the keyboard also jams.
Hi there.
A beep from from the motherboard indicates that there is a problem with it.
Can you describe how many beeps there are and if there the beeps are long are short, also do you get the beep at post/bios stage of boot?
