The keyboard on my VAIo lap=top= has gone nuts. When I typ=e a p=, I get the p= p=lus the equal sign , and the cursor jump=s to the first line of typ=e. The direction keys don-' t work, nor does the backsp=ace. The enter key causes the little box with undo to drop= down. I already p=layed around with the numlock key and fixed the worse of it, which was the letter keys tpy=ing numbers. But it is still messed up=. Any suggestions?
Okay, YOU have diagnosed and located the p=roblem for me, bless your wonderful heart. Now how do I turn off the scroll lock?|
You’ve got FReepmail.
At least we're not a call center in India.
...and we're usually helpful. Just don't ask us to keep an eye on the news channels while you're in the shower!
The tech sup=p=ort p=eop=le are in the P+hillip=ines. They don-’t sp=eak english well enough to communicate clearly with them, and they say yes when obviously they have no idea what I-’m saying.
Hold down your FN key and hit the NumLock key.
tried that , several times. It just p=uts the comp=uter into hibernation mode.
Okay, don’t try that. ;)
Found it on a Google search . . . will try again!
I have tried everything suggested in multip=le google searches, as well as everything suggested by Sony sup=p=ort which included system restore, uninstalling and reinstalling the keyboard driver, booting a several times. Next: drag it to the geek squad. I have decided there has to be something in the keyboard that my can of air couldnt blow out.
