Missing Numbers
posted by Mazy02 on Apr 18, 2008
The numbers on the number pad that go DOWN like 9, 6 & 3 as well as the colon do not work on my keyboard. The board is about a year and a half old & they suddenly stopped working. What can I do to fix this without purchasing a new board?

I have the Microsof Natural Ergonomic 4000.I had to download the software because my system was upgraded to Vista.But even with the software & a good old fashioned cleaning, the board still isn't workingproperly.

GuruFirst, what is the make and model of your k/b? Did you try reinstalling the keyboard software?

It looks as if there may be a problem with the keyboard. If it is still under warranty, I recommend that you take it backk to the point of purchase and get it exchanged.
If your warranty has run out, you may need to take it to your local service center and try to get it fixed...or get a new k/b.
Cheers!

It may be that you do not have the latest IntelliType Pro software for Vista.
Please visit THIS link to download the appropriate driver. Make sure you choose the correct version depending on your version of Vista, ie, 32bit or 64bit. The link I provided will show you how to determine which version you have. Hopefully this will resolve the problem.
If you have any further questions,please feel free to post them here. And if you are satisfied, as Pterocarpous said in the post above, please show us your appreciation by rating us as you feel fit :)

Hello Mazy02
You may just have debris build up under the keys that aren't working properly. So, the 1st thing to try for correcting the problem is cleaning the keyboard.
Make sure you have a good window of time to work on this (undisturbed - particularly option (B)) as it will require time and attention to detail.
Try the (A) 1st. If the problem persists, move on to (B).
If you do move on to (B), I strongly recommend you ONLY try the keys your having difficulty w/ at 1st. If you're successful, then move on to the remaining keys.
(A) HOW TO: CLEAN A COMPUTER KEYBOARD (no keys removed)
(B) HOW TO: CLEAN A COMPUTER KEYBOARD (including removing keys)
Please, post back here w/ the results of your efforts and if you have ANY more questions, observations, comments, etc on this topic. We're here to help.
If you're able to resolve your problem w/ the information and links I've provided here...
...would you kindly take just a moment to close the problem by assigning a FIXYA rating for my "solution"? I would be very grateful for your generosity and show of appreciation.
Again, if the problem persists or you have more questions, just post back and let us know. We'll continue to work the problem w/ you.
Thank you for using FixYa! Have a beautiful day.

(Q-01) When you said the keys "suddenly stopped working", does this mean immediately following the upgrade to Vista?
(Q-02) Does the keyboard work properly still on an XP machine?
(Q-03) If you haven't done so already, please, connect the keyboard to a computer w/ XP installed and see if the issue persists.
Did the issue follow the keyboard to the computer running XP?
(Q-04) Is THIS the software you installed?
(Q-05) Before the operating system upgraded to Vista, was there software installed for this keyboard?
(Q-06) If so, did you UNINSTALL that software b4 INSTALLING the new software?
(Q-07) Is THIS the keyboard?
(Q-08) If so, where are the keys located that you are referring to?
Are they on the 10-key pad to the right? (section (3)?
ASSUMING THAT THE KEYBOARD WORKS FINE ON A SYSTEM RUNNING WINDOWS XP, PLEASE, PERFORM THE FOLLOWING STEPS:
(09) If you didn't uninstall previous software for that keyboard, uninstall the software you just installed for it.
(10) Next, if possible, uninstall the previous software that was for the keyboard, too.
(11) Next, re-install the new software.
Please, post back w/ your results, findings, observations, etc.
