No Working Media Buttons, Keyboard
Nov 9, 2009
Just reinstalled windows 7 this weekend together with new hardware. But i have encountered some problems, both with sound and keyboard. On my keyboard which is a Logitech Ultra X (Ultra X) i have some buttons at the top, like Media, play/pause, www, email and mute. These have been working earlier on both windows xp and vista, but now they are not working. Very frustrating as i use them very often.
Do any of you guys in here have any idea about how this may be fixed?

the only keys that do work are the three volume keys. Also I have a media center remote that came with my computer that does work for all the functions including play/pause. Can anyone help me fix the media keys on my keyboard?

I tried to break the disk on several parts with Partition Manager, but at the middle of the process it froze and I forced the computer to restart. After resetting it says to "Insert the Recover Disk or other Recovery Media". After it I put the disc with the Windows 7 and at the menu where you have to choose to move (by keyboard arrows) to installation, the keyboard does not work, so I can't move to the installation and it jumps directly to the Local Disc. I also tried Windows XP disc and the same problem - there is no chance to reinstall the system. The keyboard is working in the BIOS, but after does not work.

've been using a keyboard, that i bought in Albania, really cheap price, low profile keyboard named ACME. My PC Have been screwed up by it somehow.. i think, as now i cant press serval buttons on my Keyboard.I can't Press ENTER Anymore on my laptop keyboard, neither ''L'' and serval more buttons, which make it pointless to use my laptop now..I'm currently going back to norway, and i am leaving the low profile KB here, and i'd love to make the keyboard work 100% Again?I'm not sure why, but it does not let me press enter, or L, it ignores it, like it dosent even effect anything..I've got aHP Pavilion dv6 Laptop, windows 7, x64.-- The problem came up after i took out the keyboard, and my pc was shutten off.. now i cant use the laptop keyboard 100%, only 70% as most of the buttons dont even work

I am completely stumped as my keyboard has gone haywire and am quite annoyed i cant fix itAm running windows 7 on toshiba satellite pro laptop and was wondering if its a software or perhaps hardware issue.Here is what is happening:- Caps lock light doesnt stay on anymore but it flashes when i press it. It does still work properly though- Left SHIFT key still works but when i press it.....it also creates this symbol ~ at the same time within UK keyboard. If i change to US keyboard then it enters the PIPE symbol.- The ~ key above the tab key actually does this And the pipe key which is above the Enter key types this: #7

My keyboard has some really annoying buttons that open up my email, browser, dvd player, and calculator and I accidentally click them a lot. Is there a way I can permanently disable these buttons? I don't see any options under keyboard in my control panel. What other methods might there be?

My laptop came preinstalled with Windows Vista so upgraded to Windows 7 Home Premium when it was released, since then an issue has persisted but has not been sorted, just lived with it,My laptop a: Toshiba Equium A200-26D has six media buttons above the keyboard, since the upgrade to Windows 7 Home Premium the only button that launches from the desktop is the Internet button (which is fine).The button next to that used to launch a media application such as Windows Media Player when pressed (Vista Installed). Since Windows 7 has been installed it has no function at all. When pressed it does not respond, is there a way to sort this so it launches Windows Media Player again or even iTunes?

Firefox is my main browser-Have also tried Google Chrome and IE9OS is Win 7 x64 EnterpriseSome java buttons on websites just don't work. In any browser.... they didn't work in the previous versions before i updated both Firefox and Chrome.As far as security software that I'm using, I've tried disabling all of it, and still have the same issues. Those programs are: Spybot S&D, AVG Free, Comodo firewall.Here's a good example of a java thing on a site that won't work for me.Covers.com has a login / password thing in the top right corner of their main page. I punch in my name and password, and neither hitting enter nor clicking on the Login link do anything. But I am experiencing this type of issue on many other sites. I can get on my laptop and go to the same sites and I have no issues, so it's something to do with this OS. Unfortunately, my laptop charger was lost so that's not an option. Plus, I'd really like to be able to use my tower for everything I do on the web.

I'm not sure if this problem is for the hardware or OS forum, as I'm not sure where the problem stems from.Recently I've been having trouble with certain keys on my keyboard, as well as my fingerprint reader. Some of my keys don't work very well at all, and some work only sporadically. The keys I'm talking about aren't any of the input keys for typing or anything, but rather the keys to adjust volume, brightness, screen width, etc. I'm not sure why the keys stopped working, but if someone could help with that would be awesome.I am also having trouble with my fingerprint scanner stopping working. It works when I restart or boot my computer, but after I've logged in a few times it stops working.

I recently received a watermark saying that my windows version was not genuine. (It is) Anyhow, in my scurry to remove the watermark I somehow probably changed a setting that has rendered my Min, max & close buttons useless. I am also not able to drag windows. When I open certain MMC documents, including device manager, I receive a notification stating "Unable to create new document." I have tried restoring my system to no avail. I have done so with my av & firewall down too, as well as from safe mode. I have run multiple virus scans & my system is clean!

The "back up now" button and "change settings" button and other buttons in the backup and restore center does not work, nothing happens except an icon flashes by in the taskbar. I have however managed to do a backup of my system drive but it won't let me do anything there now.
I've tried using system file checker to see if anything is wrong with the system files but it checks out ok.

#1 - - - My 10 key button area isn't operational & the "NUM LOCK" button doesn't seem to help.
#2 - - - I have a password & a fingerprint reader that I can use either way, to access my PC. Quite recently, I burned all five of my R hand digits used to ID myself to the machine. How would I delete these fingerprints & replace them with all five of my L hand fingers?

The notebook is Sony Vaio VGN-CS21S-W. I've upgraded to Windows 7 and the multimedia buttons stopped working. I'm talking about the sensor/touch buttons. I've installed drivers and the function buttons are ok, but still without success with multimedia buttons.

It seems like the screen only works if I turn it on exactly at the same time as I turn on the computer.So i need to push both the screen power button and the computer power button at the same time.I am not sure, it just seems to work when I do it. What can cause this weird problem?

I just received a new keyboard today: Thermaltake Challenger Ultimate. I went from a Logitech G15.
First thing I did was connect the keyboard and install the software that came along on the CD, it probably also installed the correct drivers. First after this did I uninstall the software and drivers from the old Logitech G15. But before that, and now after, the volume buttons on my new keyboard is still not adjusting the volume when I press them.
A speaker-icon like this shows up when I press the volume buttons, so its not that the keys are not working: (ignore the text behind it, its me writing an assignment)

my daughter pressed a couple of keys earlier and now my laptop keyboard isnt working properly. It is really strage because a few keys are working but not in thier usual function. My partner logged out so now i am sat at a login screen and cant key in a password. The on screen keyboard is behaving the same way which is very odd! Any suggestions? I have only had it 3 weeks and have had no problems it's been great. My mrs said she was trying to type in a website and windows kept popping up when she typed, and then she logged out.

I have a keyboard that can pause/play and do volume control and it would rock if it had a button to change songs previous/next from WMP, even if the window isn't active. The question of the day is whether these functions integrated in my keyboard are shortcuts (that can be typed out) or something else. I would love to be able to control music without having to switch windows. If you're too lazy to type then please just copy and paste the URL of a page that might have a list of those keyboard shortcuts.

My laptop seems to have problems with most USB devices. It is running Win 7 professional 64 bit. Firstly it will only take a HP external keyboard. I have tried a Microsoft KB and a Kensington KB and neither would work. A standard mouse will work OK. Then I tried to use a Plantronic BUA200 BT dongle. Had one working after about 2 days of fiddling, then got a new one and it sits with a yellow triangle saying it needs a driver, but can't find any. The odd thing is the dongle will still pair with the headset. So I bought a USB headset today and gets the same thing. Windows tries to install it, but says it fails to find the drivers. Have run Windows update twice recently, so that is all up to date. USB flash drives seem to be OK.

But the problem is that once I connect the keyboard to the laptop only the indicator bulbs glow on the keyboard and the keyboard is not working at all.

Today my laptop keyboard and mouse stop working for some odd reason because some weird anti vurse popped up on my computer freezing it so I restarted it . I thought my computer frozen so I would restart it , but I just hooked up my keyboard and mouse and they work just fine on the laptop , but when i unplug them i can't use my keyboard or mouse to my computer. I am not sure if i pressed something to make the touchpad and keyboard stop working .Maybe I could have put in sleep mode or something.
