Hi, If you are using a keyboard that is wireless im sure you just have to change the battery on the keyboard.
However if the keyboard is connected
to your CPU, then depending on your keyboard model, you may have to
turn F LOCK (F Lock Light on) to access system key commands if they are labeled on the front of the keys, such as num lock , scroll lock and print screen.When you click on the Flock, the lights are either supoosed to click on or off.
view the keyboard status lights by using the On Screen Display (OSD) option, Ensure you download the software ,
from your start menu do a search for your keyboard, on th key tabs setting,
its important to make sure that the correct model number is entered,
double click on the light you wish to change, in the Reassign a Key wizard,
clear the Displays (key name) status on the screen check box to disable the on-screen display, or select it so that a check mark is in the box to enable it, and then click Finish.
HOPE THIS HELPS.
It certainly does indicate motherboard issue, sub out the ram memory one at a time and test, if no change! the laptop needs to be checked out for motherboard problems.
