How do i connect key board to hp 10 - HP Computers & Internet

Bad issue. 90% you'll need change high voltage board damaged. 10% is a bad connection (metal plates) but of that board and it's needed diassembly. Sorry to tell you

you will need the wireless usb plug in for the key board so that the pc will recognize that there is a wireless key board in that needs a driver

Characters on key board switch from letter/ numbers i guess you meant HOW TO SWITCH (key word HOW?)_
Pavilion (secret PC model) ouch....
your first ever PC?, no model told, PAV means zero..
The numb lock key is it ,same for 40 years but but but.....
but on some lame tiny small laptop/pads
the keyboard is shrunk below the standard size and is not 104+ keys
to do that magic (buy real 104 usb keyboard and live better/)?
they used a wild and woolly, Fn roller over keys.
the keyPAD is missing but is moved to center(ish) of keyboard.
to do that all this is 100% custom to HP ! HW/SW ALL.
to make that work takes just 2 things

• RTM , read the manual on just this secret PC, and bingo there you learn this. (SHRUNKEN PC'S)
• or the drivers for this unique keyboard or missing so get them at HP.com (using real model or service tag first) and matched to you unstated OS. w7? w8, what?

IF ASKING WHAT A REAL NUMLOCK KEY DOES?
GOOGLE IT, 40 YEARS OF ANSWERS- UNCHANGING.
THE PAD SET TO NUM'S IS FOR 10 KEY ACCOUNTANTS.
SEE? fun to watch them is, fast they are,..

The front USB header on the XW9400 board has a ground connected to pin #10. The USB standard #10 pin has nothing connected to it, so HP uses it to sense whether a connector is attached to the header.

this is the problem it needs reflowing. will not boot with this not connecting properly, and leaving this laptop on for long times like this it will shut down as you are cooking the board. and that will damage the board and other parts. might just be a better idea to change the board, if using windows 10 you need to install the original windows with the same windows key that your windows 10 was upgraded with or you will need to buy a new windows key.

Hi,

To fix the problem,
please press the connect connect button on the bottom of the mouse and the connect button on the reciever and relaese both the buttons together. this would rest the wireless connection and then the mouse should work fine.

regards.

check the connection at the back of your computer. unplug and replug usually gets it. also check the port where you connect the key board for dusts and dirt that may have caused it to malfunction.

Press num lock key of key board if num lock led is on/off then your cpu gives display to monitor Then make sure monitor cable is connected properly to cpu vga port.
When you power up the cpu press F8 key then enter in "enable vga mode" Then go to start->control panel->display->settings.
Change screen resolution to 1024*768 then apply and ok.
Then check.
But if num lock led is not on/off and left constant then you need to open cpu cabinet.
Refix RAM memory.Pull cmos cell from motherboard for 10 minutes.
Clean dust from all parts.
Reattach processor and it's fan.
Make sure motherboard is not ground with cabinet.
Open motherboard from cabinet and try outside of cabinet.
Let me know if you need further assistance.
Thanks for using FixYa.

It sounds like your keyboard may have bit the dust !
If you can get to a DOS Prompt or word pad to check, I will explain.
Start with going across all the top key's. If you find one that does not work, go directly below it and see if that key left to right works. If not your connection is corrupt and the keyboard should be replaced. Example: Type Y and U if the U does not work go below to the J and K, if they don't work, 1 or more of the integrated connections are bad and you will more that likely see at-least 8-10 more key's in that region that also don't work.
Keyboard for the DV1000 units can be purchased for $16.00 to $30.00 US. on (ebay)
Replacing the key board is not a bad job, but will require a little time.
Good luck.

P.S. DV1000 units are fairly old and you got your money's worth out of that one. !
