Keyboard of a new computer not working

please plug in and out, It will start working. if not your keyboard is damaged.

Hi


Please check whether your keyboard is properly plugged in to your computer. If it is plugged in properly then try and change the slot of the keyboard(if its a USB port keyboard). If this doesn't help then try to check the BIOS settings for keyboard settings.
To enter BIOS settings press DEL key continuosly or F8(Function key 8) continuosly until the BIOS menu appears. Under the menu select the option of Hardware->Keyboard-> check whether it is enabled or disabled. If it is disabled then enable it.

Try using this keyboard with another Computer, if it doesn't work with other Computer as well then you can get it replaced for a new one.

Update the BIOS from the hp.com and also download the latest keyboard drivers from the website. It shoud work ALL THE BEST

If you just bought the computer yesterday? I would take it back. That is the easiest way around this, let them rectify this problem for you.

Hope this helps

this problem is from motherboard repair it or use usb external keyboard

You might want to check the batteries being wireless, also check the device conected to your tower that reads the keyboard, make sure its pushed in all the way or not being disturbed by any objects.

Try to remove the keyboard and put it back. Go to hp site and find instructuion about how to remove keyboard.

What a drag! Did the tea have any sugar in it? Anything except water or plain tea won't wash off too easily. Dirt, dust and moisture don't clean off easliy. The question is, did any moisture get onto the motherboard? I've had to wash off a few contaminiated circuit boards and it took a few good soakings in warm water and a tooth brush over all the contacts to really remove the residue. From Coke to salt water I've gotten stuff to work but it has to be very clean. I suggest getting a new keyboard if the laptop is worth it and seeing if that works. It is probably salvageable but all the contacts need to be inspected.

Happened to me too - ended up needing a new keyboard, which I bought but then totally broke the pin when I replaced. So now I just use an external keyboard. You can probably get it to work with a replacement notebook keyboard, but be REALLY careful when swapping it out!

Hit the start button on bottom of pc lower left corner click 2 connect 2 and make sure you are on a secured line hope it helps Weldhore.
