I'm getting a strange problem when starting up my computer. On initial boot, one of the messages on screen is "press del to enter setup". At this point, the keyboard works fine-I can go in and change BIOS settings without any problem. However, if I let it contimue booting up, another message appears-"Press any key to boot from CD". This is the one I want, but at this point the keyboard has no effect. Even pressing F8 does nothing.

I can access the Bios during startup but get to the screen to select Safe Mode nothing on the keyboard works. Neither the arrow keys or Enter does anything. All I can do is wait for it to count down and continue startup. After the computer starts the keyboard works just fine.,Windows 7 64 bit, 4G RAM, Intel quadcore processor
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using an older Microsoft Bluetooth keyboard and mouse on my Windows 7 HTPC. This usually works wonderfully, except when the new startup repair screens are shown. These screens REQUIRE you to click a button (or press Enter) to continue, and will sit there for all etenerty until you do.
The problem is, they are shown before the drivers for the bluetooth keyboard and mouse are loaded, so I can not click them with out stealing a wired keyboard or mouse from my other pc. This seems like a pretty stupid choice to me, as every other such option has some kind of time-limit on it so that it will automatically continue.
Is there a way to either have the startup repair screens default to some option after a short time, or to completely disable them?
My baby likes to press the pretty blue power button on the machine, and therefore I see that screen often, and am getting tired of running for the keyboard every other time I want to sit and watch a DVD.
Im not sure what I did but when my laptop boots up, i have the magnifier program and the keyboard on screen, i can just click them off but would like to know where i go to shut them off so they dont load up anymore

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen I boot and the Windows 7 desktop appears I can't use my keyboard and mouse for about 5 seconds. As a matter of fact none of my USB-connected periphals are available at that point. I have to note that it's my first system with a lightning fast SSD. Booting Windows to the desktop takes only 10 seconds. Maybe it's just too fast for everything to initialize?

I recently bought a replacement mouse + keyboard. (Both Wireless, use same connector). So, I plugged them in last night, and the keyboard worked in the startup. I log in, and it stops working? I have no way to access any files on that computer since i have no working mouse/keyboard besides the one that wont work on that, so I need a way to fix it without accessing files that are only accessible after login.
View 23 Replies View RelatedI'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but recently on my girlfriends computer we installed a webcam and everything kinda froze. Upon restarting the computer it comes up with the screen saying a device failed and may need a startup repair. Also gives the option to start windows normally. The problem is the keyboard is not recognized to choose an option. It counts down and goes to the screen to start the startup repair, but again no mouse or keyboard. I have tried accessing the BIOS but considering the keyboard is not working i cannot do that either. I'm not sure what all is in it as I got it from a friend when he built a new one. It is a custom computer, not from a typical manufacturer. It has worked perfectly up until trying to install the webcam. I have tried using every USB port and also tried using a ps/2 converter to no avail. I'm not sure what to do anymore, and I'm afraid of messing with it too much or hard-booting it too much.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have been having this problem for a while now, never managed to sort it. Basically when I start my computer using the keyboard in BIOS for f12 and think like that are fine but the second I get into windows login screen I cant type or use the mouse for a good 10-15 seconds which is a right pain. Anyone know why this would be happening? Or anything I can test to see what the problem is. (Mouse and keyboard work fine on other computers)

View 4 Replies View RelatedWe're running an Oracle application that requires the jinitiator 1.3.1.22 on the client pc. Prior to Windows7 we only had a problem that required replacing the jvm.dll file within the Jinitiator installation folder. With Windows7 64bit and/or 32bit, we're seeing where some clients can open IE9 and get the popup logon screen as expected but nothing you type will show in the logon area until you click outside of the window and then come back to it. We've noticed that unless the cursor is blinking in the logon window it will not display anything that is typed (unless you click outside the window and come back to it). However, some users can use the 32bit IE and never have a problem. Sometimes you'll get a message that Windows is changing the basic theme.

View 9 Replies View RelatedYesterday my computer crashed, but I got it working quite quickly again. But when I was to write to my friends in a chat (I am swedish) I realized i could not write any swedish letters. And all the 1-9 shift functions were moved or gone too. It has taken me a while to figure out where the functions are now (like ? ! @ etc). So anyway I thought that the input language must be acting wierd. and when I were to look what language i had on, there were none. No input languages. None. I cant add, because there are no languages to add. They all are gone.

View 3 Replies View RelatedIm having a tricky question I thought I had answered. I have a 32-bit Win7 machine that I just unpackaged and setup for a user. I was having problems with windows not responding to mouse or keyboard commands after what I thought was a sleep issue. I disabled hibernation, sleep, hybrid sleep, HDD power downs. Now the computer just turns off the monitor, User always turns off his PC and actively uses it all day. I thought this had fixed the problem, I just left it running in my office and would just make sure it responded. I just installed the new machine last night thinking I had fixed the problem. As the user was typing an email he "Claims" that the screen just went dark and he couldn't get it to come back on. The light on the monitor showed activity (Wasn't the orange sleep light) but wu9ld not return from this state. I have to manually power down when it does this.
View 1 Replies View Relatedi have a windows 7 computer that i got second hand from a computer repair place. it's a new install, but not genuine apparently. all this computer is used for is surfing the net on a large monitor/watching netflix/hulu/Internet.so, had a few bsod problems with netflix and similar, but nothing big, until monday. on monday, it suddenly wouldn't take any input from the mouse after the first few clicks. sunday night it worked fine, the most recent change was an installation of dvd decrypter on friday. however, monday it will load up, allow me to click past the "not genuine" screen, and maybe click one or two more things, then any time i click above the taskbar, there is no response. the weirdness is that i can do anything from the taskbar. open/close new programs, access the windows menu, etc. but if i click an open window, it deselects it, like i had clicked an empty portion of desktop. this also occurs if i click an icon on the desktop. the keyboard works fine, and it's part of a wireless set.
i tried cold-booting it, and a new mouse, neither worked.finally, i did a system restore to about 3 days ago. this seemed to restore complete functionality. however, i just found out from my wife that its' exhibiting similar symptoms-- she will go to netflix and everything will work fine, until she got to the page where something was playing, at which point it wouldn't accept commands again.
We just bought a Hp Pavilion p6-2133w, we hooked it up to a sony monitor, we had to hook them up with a adapter that takes the dvi-d from the computer and adapts it to vga for the monitor. The problem is the monitor doesn't act like it is reading the signal.

View 1 Replies View RelatedFor some odd reason there is a noticeable delay once my laptop wakes from sleep. It will display the "press ctrl-alt-del" welcome screen almost instantly, but it takes 10-20 seconds for it to recognize when I actually press ctrl-alt-del. I don't remember it doing this when I first installed the RC, and I don't have any credential management software running. This is on an HP 6710b.

View 2 Replies View RelatedStarting today my computer has been randomly turning itself off, although running lights are still on, and the computer sounds as if it is still running normally.Essentially what happens is that it crashes out, the monitor says input signal lost and then nothing happens. First two times it crashed whilst using Photoshop. Third time I installed a program to monitor the HDD temp. It was running just over 40c when it crashed again (had a low end game running to see if the HDD temp would rise). I waited 30 min before turning the computer on each time.Opened the case to check for any build up of dust, it seemed fine.I have also checked that all the cables are plugged in correctly.Also definitely something wrong, because holding down the power button didn't turn it off. Had to turn the computer off by the switch at the back of the computer.Only thing new with the comp today was updating Microsoft.Net framework, a few hours before the first time it crashed.
View 4 Replies View RelatedMy new PC with windows 7 won't detect my old Acer v243w monitor. I was hoping to use dual monitors, with this monitor connected via vga into the motherboard and my other monitor connected by DVI into the graphics card. The graphics card I am using is a Radeon HD6870. It has DVI slots and an HDMI slot but no VGA slot.
Even when the Acer is plugged into the motherboard by itself using VGA it does not get detected then either.
Is it simply a case of getting a lead which will convert my VGA lead from the Acer monitor into a DVI output which I can then plug into the graphics card?
Or perhaps there is a way of enabling VGA support, maybe via the graphics card or something? It seems odd to have a VGA socket in the motherboard if it is not going to work.
Why doesn't the logon screen show me my account with the password input field already availible? It used to, because I only have one account on my laptop and so whenever I turned it on or when it woke up from sleep, the account was already selected so I could just entered my password. Now the Switch users button has appeared and I have to first click on the account so I can then input the password. I found the solution to disable then Switch users butto, but the account still must be clicked first, as if there were more accounts on the laptop.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am using Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit and I'm confronting a quite annoying problem while trying to use the Japanese input.This is what happens, I switch on the Japanese input from the language bar, then I select the hiragana alphabet. It seems to be working properly if I use only hiragana pressing Enter after each word. But if I try to use kanji, after pressing Space, when I try to select the one I need from the scroll menu that shows up, the program I am working in freezes saying it's not responding. The program can be closed at the 3rd click showing that window with "Check for a solution and close the program/Close the program/Wait for the program to respond" and at the details it has a "Problem Event Name AppHangB1".This happened to me while working in Microsoft Office, Mozilla Firefox, and even in Notepad or Yahoo messenger. Though, it seems to be ok in Internet Explorer.I tried to reinstall the the Japanese language, but nothing changed.
