A couple of the keys that correspond with the fn key work but when I hit any other key I lose those functions also.
what would make the mouse not work then? Does it function through the key board? I thought maybe my bios is screwed up? If that is not it then my motherboard is probably screwed up. Is it possible to connect a keyboard through the USB port that the bios would recognize? If I take it in to a service center I am looking at 40% of the value. Any answers
Question.............What would make a keyboard lock up when one touches any key? Reason is when I depress FN and F6 ( change to VDU) it works but when I then depress any key other then FN and then try FN and F6 it fails? any answers??????
how do I reset my bios?
I have a similar problem. My left mouse clicker doesn't work now. When I plug in an external mouse through one of the USB ports, that external mouse works with no problem. Since I have had the Aspire 5100 for over 12 months, I had to pay the Acer tech support $2.76 a minute to try and solve the problem. They told me I may have a virus, but when I did a complete scan, no virus was detected. I think the mouse cable under the key board may be defective.
how do u pinpoint it to a hardware problem? I get some of the fn key functions. This problem did not happen until I downloaded files to my mp3 player. I see others who own this system with the same issue. Most with no solution and one where mother board was replaced to which I believe the problem was not pinpointed but rather it was a full sweep do to inexperience. Problem points me to a function remedy or a bios recovery on the extreme side. So can you tell me how to recover the drivers automatically on startup or a function that will restore the keyboard and mouse to 100%?
