Keyboard Shortcut Key Combination (Ctrl / Arrow) Doesn't Work

Nov 4, 2010

I encounter a problem recently. My keyboard shortcut: Ctrl+[left/right] arrow key doesn't work in any of my editors like: Microsoft word 2007; Microsoft wordpad; Open office writer and Abiword - I use this key combination for move between words in my word processors. Because of this problem is general in all of my editors I think this is not a software specific issue and belongs to my Win 7.

Cannot Assign Ctrl+Alt+F As A Keyboard Shortcut

Sep 28, 2011

I like to use keyboard shortcuts to start programs running. I assigned Ctrl+Alt+F to open Firefox (pinned to the Start Menu), but it would not work. I can use Ctrl+Shift+F and the shortcut works. Normally, I would assume that Ctrl+Alt+F conflicts with one already in use, but pressing that key combination, nothing happens. Is there a way to determine what keyboard shortcuts are assigned and which are available?

PC Freezes Randomly Under Normal Usage - Ctrl Alt Del Doesn't Work

Jun 28, 2011

My PC since a week has started freezing randomly one or twice a day. All the windows stay open, the mouse does not move,. Even Ctrl+Alt+Delete does not work; CAPS Lock light does not get toggled. Sometimes it happens after just 10 mins of startup, sometimes after a few hours. It has always happened under normal usage, ie. no games/Photoshop/3ds Max running. Just Firefox running or sometimes even while no app running. Once it happened while I was scanning a picture, and the scanning head (the light-tube) of the scanner also froze midway.

Event log from last startup to freeze :
Code: Critical 29/6/2011 8:57:59 AM
Microsoft-Windows-Kernel-Power 41 (63)
The system has rebooted without cleanly shutting down first. This error could be caused if the system stopped responding, crashed, or lost power unexpectedly.
[Log] .....

I ran memtest86 for 3 passes (1 hour +) and it showed 0 errors. My installation is 1 year old. I've ran disk cleanup to clear temp files and stuff, and I've got 20 out of 90 GB free in my C: Drive (Win 7 partition) and 200 out of ~850GB on my secondary partition. The last program I had installed is LogMeIn Hamachi which I have uninstalled, but the PC froze once again after the uninstallation! I also got my PC case internals and especially the CPU heatsink fan (without detaching the fan/heatsink) cleaned.. but I'm not getting any CPU overtemp error anyways.

My specs:
CPU: i7 920
Kingston 4 GB DDR3 @ 667 Mhz
Zotac Nvidia 9800GTX +
Seagate SATA 1 TB HD
Win 7 x64 Ultimate Edition

Keyboard Windows 7 Doesn't Work

Nov 5, 2011

i am on windows 7 and for a week, my keyboard doesn't work. the key p, return, tab, and some others won't work. ma visual keyboard works fine - except the question mark - . i tried the pilots, and the computer says it has the best pilots so no need to update. i don't know where it comes from, but then, after a windows update, my keyboard came back to normal. it worked fine for three days and then, again, it screw up. it's always the same keys that don't work, so i don't think my keyboard is worn out. my computer is only one year old. it's a sony vaio laptop. each time i press the p key, for example, the start button -physical one- blinks. same for the other buttons. when i press the return key, the start button blinks. and while i am having this problem, my computer has trouble loading. sometimes it freezes and i have to unplug it and remove the battery to reboot.

my keyboard works fine for the BIOS but as soon as windows starts it stops.It's not recognized in the device manager but will occasionally show (still doesn't work). And I know it's not a USB problem because I've switched ports and all other USB devices work, including the mouse.

Keyboard Doesn't Work After Leave The PC For Hours

Feb 12, 2010

I'm running Windows 7, the keyboard works fine as long as I'm using it but when I leave the PC for hours and try to work after that, the keyboard doesn't work and I have to use the on-screen keyboard to login and continue working on the on-screen keyboard only. The only way for the keyboard to work again is if I restart the PC.

Is there an option that I have to check or something? Anyone knows how to resolve this problem ..

Arrow Keys Don't Work On Page

Dec 15, 2011

so recently i put together a comp using my old HDD, CD-DVD Drive, CPU, and PSU. I bought a new Mobo, GPU, Ram, and case. Anyway i was messing with the CMOS because it wouldn't turn on, so i was resetting it(once or twice) and when it turns on now, the computer directs me to the system repair page. It gives me the option to go repair the system or start windows normally, but the arrow keys don't work on this page. They work on the system repair's next page however. So i got out my Win7 disk preparing to reinstall, but after i put it in it directs it to the same page still.

Cursor Beam Doesn't Move With Arrow Keys In Text Areas

Dec 10, 2012

Since I find it much faster to move the "beam" cursor around with the arrow keys (and CTRL+Arrow key to jump over whole words), I frequently use that instead of the mouse to reposition the cursor, handy if I want to go back a few words and add or change something.

However on many sites, using the arrow keys fails to move the beam, yet the actual input position does change.

For example, I'll press "CRTL+Left Arrow" a few times to jump back three words. On the screen the beam stops flashing but stays put, yet if I start to type the typing starts where the beam should have ended up if it moved properly.

Arrow Keys Don't Work With Auto Scroll Function

Dec 3, 2009

I use the auto scroll feature on my mouse frequently to browse web pages. Before upgrading to win 7 (and ie8) when activated I could scroll using the arrow keys on my keyboard. Since upgrading the arrow keys no longer work. You can only scroll by moving the mouse itself. That function is very important to me as it allowed me to keep my hand off the mouse reducing the aggravation of carpal tunnel syndrome. Any fixes? I am not sure if this is an IE8 problem or win 7 as I only use the function when browsing the web.

Keyboard CTRL Not Working?

Dec 19, 2011

I recently bought a new wireless keyboard to replace my Dell AT102w (I know I know, replacing a mechanical beast with a tiny chiclet, but it's necessary due to recent space issues).For some reason the CTRL doesn't seem to work at all, there are two CTRL's as you'd expect and neither of them seem to register within windows I can't see both of them not working, seems like to much of a coincidence.Here is the keyboard layout:

I've tried reinstalling drivers by removing the little dongle and putting it in a different USB but it doesn't help. What is strange is the keyboard has an FN key but no keys to use in conjunction with it.

Cannot Use The CTRL And W Keys On Keyboard

I cannot use the CTRL and W keys on my keyboard. I have gone through all of the regular uninstall the keyboard and all associated drivers with the computer and none of it has worked. I am using the Microsoft Wireless Comfort Keyboard 5000.The batteries have also been changed with new ones and that did not fix it. I have also done a Windows Restore to a previous time when it did work and that did not help. I have no other keyboards to test with at this time either.

Random Keyboard Glitches - Acts As If Holding Ctrl?

Feb 28, 2012

Alright, so recently I upgraded my windows vista laptop to windows 7 ultimate.Everything ran smoothly, except for now when I type, it will randomly act as if I am holding ctrl for short bursts, opening new tabs, windows, closing the browser, opening the find window, bookmarks window, etcIt never did this before I installed windows 7, and I checked to make sure my drivers are up to date, which they are. I've googled and tried many solutions, but none of them have worked. I am running windows 7 ultimate 34 bit on a Toshiba laptop, but that's all I really know.

Ctrl Alt Del Key Combo No Longer Work In Windows 7

Sep 21, 2011

Adding the pc to our domain seems to have caused the ctrl-alt-del key combination at login to no longer work. Other Windows 7 pc's on the domain work fine with the ctrl-alt-del key combo. It's not the keyboard and I can use the onscreen keyboard option to mouse click on the keys to bring up the login screen. Also when the screen saver turns on the ctrl-alt-del also fails to work. I have run several fix tries:

- Boot and F8 into repair computer...found no errors.
- F8 into command screen and ran sfc /scannow and found no integrity violations.
- Ran the win7 boot memory tester and it came back with no errors.

Short of wiping and reinstalling, which I don't have the time to do. I have tested the keyboard on another computer and it works fine.
