I cant write in my keyboard dell inspiron - Dell Inspiron 2600 Notebook

If you have a desktop keyboard with a usb plug, attach to your laptop and should get you up and running. Try a system restore of your computer before this happened it might get the laptop keyboard going.

It should be a simple fix. Start your laptop and pay attention to the screen. Press the F12 key (or F11) to enter "SETUP" then find the NUMLOC command and make sure that its DISABLED or OFF. This will turn this option off andyou will only be able to use the number's keys on the top of the keyboard. Be careful when entering SETUP. You don't want to change anything you don't have to.

pres FN key HOLD + F4 or F5.. then try to use the number

Look on your keyboard. On most laptops there is a function key that will lock the keyboard. You would need to pres the [Fn] key and the appropriate [F#] key. In mine the combination would be [Fn+F1] keys.

There is a keystroke combo that enables or disables those keys.
They should work. Can't remember the keystroke, but it's a FN plus one of the keys--should be a symbol on the keyboard.
