Is this a bootup password that comes up right away when the power is turned on? If so - then the keyboard, mainboard or the flex cable connecting the keyboard to the mainboard is faulty.

I would reconnect the keyboard and clean the flex cable and its connector, I've found sand inside two laptops so far that had keyboard issues... cleaning the flex cable and the connector solved the issue in those cases.

If that doesn't help, you can try another keyboard or a usb keyboard, if both don't work then the issue is either the keyboard connector or the mainboard is failing, which isn't uncommon for acer, I have a 3000 series laptop that has the same problem - keyboard doesn't work, usb doesn't work either.

Outside of warranty are you?

Dell laptop: keyboard letters will not work. Numbers work.

what dell, 40 years almost now, 1980s to now, made
we cant guess what you own here, be silly to try..?
the keyboard is bad.
or the unstated OS is corrupted.
ok you posted 3 times
only one of the 3 you said LAPTOP
but no model.
this modern laptop has 4 levels of password
1: bios users.
2: bios admin
3: windows login screen (this?)
4: and online microsoft live accounts.

at the least.
my guess is the keyboard is bad, if BIOS fails
for password that is a bad keyboard.
try plugging in a desktop usb keyboard to the laptop

The number four on my laptop is not working

To get around the problem, open a text file (e.g. notepad but not word)
type your password and for the number 4, copy it from a website ) and paste it into the text file. (So you could copy it from this page, just highlight the number 4 here and then right click, copy and then go to your notepad file and paste it in).

When you have your password composed in the text file, highlight it and copy then paste it into the password field for your email. Make sure you copy only the password and no spaces that might appear at the end of the password.

To fix the number 4 key, you might be able to gently pry it off, clean the area gently with a cotton tip ... replace the key. Sometimes they are just dirty. But be very careful, you can end up damaging more than just the one key.

It is quite easy to replace keyboards on laptops so if you have a friend who is a fix it sort of person...just google replace keyboard [enter your laptop name] and you'll find a video or instructions.

Keyboard on our aptop is not working so i cant get past the vista user password screen . any ideas ?

a usb keyboard will do the trick but you have to start the laptop with the keyboard plugged in, you can use that to activate the on screen keyboard if you desire until you work out what is wrong with the laptop keyboard and if you need to replace it

Good luck
