Control alt del does not work on my computer - HP Compaq Presario SR2011WM PC Desktop

no PC stated; no OS stated; no browser stated. sigh.
GM works on my Firefox.
IE1 to 10 is banned
IE11 fails on Gmx.com it fails and locksup so avoid
internet exploder if using that, try Chrome or Firefox,
run FF v69 or newer.

the Control alt key must work always,
if not the PC is infected. big time.
if not doing W10 updates, that is, but no OS even hinted, at all.

you are posted to Computers not TV nor to cell phones so I can only assume it is a PC. of some kind.

Per the internet site, it depends upon the model of laptop. Here are some examples:

try to restart the computer..and if it didn't work hit those keys many times again,and if it doesn't work, scan your computer for virus or errors.

Hi

is it a usb keyboard or a ps2(round connector) keyboard? the problem is most likely that due to the computer not having started up properly the keyboard is not properly configured / installed by windows.

to get rid of this problem, you need the old type of keyboard, turn off the computer, and plug in a keyboard to the ps2 connector.




green one is for the mouse, the other is for the keyboard, plug in a keyboard, then turn the computer on, you should be able to press CTRL+ALT +DEL now and ones you sign in to the computer it should install the usb keyboard and it should work from now on, just make sure the keyboard is not disconnected or port changed when the power is off from the computer that cause the configuration loss.

you have to install window xp operating sytem .then its work.

Is your problem comes like crt+alt+del to restart.

do it your problem definetly solve.

The computer cannot find the operating system, the disk error message means it cannot find the hard disk, you most likely have a faulty hard disk or less likely a faulty disk controller.

You can test the hard disk by removing it and connecting it to a USB hard drive adapter and plug it into a working computer's USB port. If this computer cannot detect this drive as an external drive then you will know your hard drive is faulty ad you need to buy a new one and install Windows and programs etc..

if your conrolpanel works in admin account then create new user

to enter ina admin account
start pc then when ask for logon user press ctrl+alt+del+del
then type administrator in user
then ok
then check control panel

Thats Task manager and if you have Windows 2K , XP or Vista they will not shut the unit down w/these keyboard options.
