Touchpad and Keyboard not working

For the last 2 weeks my keyboard and touchpad has not been working when I load onto the log in screen on Windows. The keyboard works while the computer is loading but once the log in screen comes up, I can not use both. I have tried taking the battery out and holding the power button and hitting F7 when the computer is loading but neither of them makes my touchpad or keyboard work. I can choose Safe Mode when the computer is loading but neither will work after Windows load. There was an update that completed two weeks ago and it started afterward.
I have a HP Pavillion Dv6t - 1200
Product Number FV161AV
I need to know how can this be fixed and IF it is worth fixing.
Thanks in  advance

turn on the notebook while its turning on or booting up keep on tapping F8 button there will be options on how you want to boot the notebook choose safemode with command prompt, test your keys there and touchpad if it works most probably that your system got a malware that made the keyboard & touchpad malfunction... you got 2 options you could perform system restore but after a while the issue will exist or you could perform recovery but will wipe out all the information on the notebook (it will revert the notebook back to factory default condition) better to back up all  your data.
there is no harm in trying, just always give your best shot!!!

  • Touchpad and Keyboard not working (including external devices)

    Hi,
    I am using an rmbp with win7 and macosx.
    Win7 on my bootcamp partition was working perfectly(4 months+) until now .I restarted my system  and realized that the touchpad and keyboard are not working(inluding external mice/keyboard).I can boot into Macosx and the mouse and keyboard are working perfectly so its not a hardware problem.I havent set any restore points and have tried all the other recovery options (using f8 before booting) but to no avail
    I have read some other solutions which involved opening the device manager but I cannot press anything when I login to windows.Does anybody have any idea except reinstalling windows? I would really appreciate any help !
    Cheers

    I have even loaded my Bootcamp partition in parallels ,in hopes of repairing the installation from there but Parallels give an error about mouse coherence and I cannot use my keyboard and mouse there .
    Does anyone have any other idea except reinstalling windows ? .Thanks !

  • Flex 3 -1470 Touchpad and keyboard not working at the same time

    Hi, I'm using a Flex 3 -1470 and whenever I press a key on the keyboard the touchpad becomes disabled. I've tried googling a solution and have the latest drivers from the Lenovo website but nothing seems to work. I've also tried editing the ALPS touchpad registry fix but it didn't work. Any help in resolving this issue would be greatly appreciated.

    Dear Cecilia,
    Have you found a solution to this problem? I think we ran into it as well. We are using SAP BI 7.0 SP14.
    When we're trying to apply a conversion to a field that is plannable and contains a value in another currency then the currency translation is not performed, we cannot see any value.
    Thanks,

  • [SOLVED] Xorg and keyboard not working after upgrade.

    Hi guys,
    after a `# pacman -Syyu` I got Xorg not starting and keyboard not working: I am unable to do anything.
    I'm posting here pacman's log that I got by booting an Ubuntu Live CD: https://gist.github.com/anonymous/7517806
    Any hint?
    How do you recover a system once it's gone like this? Many thanks in advance.

    Just my 1.46¢
    You're right, problem wasn't actually solved. In fact, yesterday I upgraded the whole system again and the same problem showed up, but I got it fixed.
    Same scenario: after a boot (shorter than usual), what I had was a tty, but I noticed something that I hadn't noticed the last time: the prompt said "Arch Linux 3.11.[?]".
    The kernel version was supposed to be 3.12.[?] so I started investigating and after several attempts, this is how I got the system working again:
    1. Chrooted into the system
    2. Wiped /boot
    3. Re-installed grub
    4. Re-installed linux kernel
    5. Re-created grub.cfg
    6. ???
    7. Profit
    I'm pretty sure that what originated the problem wasn't a "kernel issue" as I pointed out in my previous post, but it was an incorrect installation of grub: in fact, the grub prompt never showed up before yesterday, the system used to boot straight, ignoring the 5 seconds timeout.

  • [solved] mouse and keyboard not working (and previous fix wont work)

    i made a clean default setup with
    arch
    latest kernel - 2.6.29 i think
    xorg 1.6.1
    video-intel-legacy
    on a 865G intel box + tried usb and ps2 keyboards + usb mouse
    when i start X the mouse and keyboard dont work (and i have to hard reset the box) in all of the setups i tried. the AutoAddDevices fix suggested before does not work this time
    - without xorg.conf
    - with auto-generated xorg.conf (X -confogure)
    - with the automatic conf +
    Section "ServerFlags"
    Option "AutoAddDevices" "False"
    EndSection
    - with tiny xorg.conf containing only
    Section "ServerFlags"
    Option "AutoAddDevices" "False"
    EndSection
    - with dbus/hal enabled and disabled in rc.conf
    how i make it work
    Last edited by ash (2009-04-30 19:01:41)

    the setup that works to me now is
    automatic xorg.conf with the AutAddDevices False (disable hotplug) lines
    dbus and hal enabled in deamons
    this lines instruct xorg to use xf86-input-mouse/keyboard instead of evdev. ie it looks like with evdev there is no point in xf86-input-mouse/keyboard

  • Bluetooth Mighty Mouse and Keyboard not working in Win XP!

    Hi All,
    I simply cannot get my Bluetooth Mighty Mouse and Keyboard to work in Win XP via Bootcamp! The bluetooth icon appears in the tray and even shows that they are connected but they do nothing at all. One thing to note is that they show up as connected but with no password. Could this be the problem? If I reconnected the two with new passcodes for XP, would they still work when I reboot in OSX?

  • Touch pad and keyboard not working!

    Just the other day while my computer was starting up i took a tissue and started to clean it. Then the password screen popped up. I typed in the password and started to browse the web. After about 1 minute, my touch pad and keyboard stopped working! I tried to restart the computer and it did nothing. I then restored the computer to this morning ( the update my computer did while it was turning on also the time i was cleaning it. ) and it still did nothin. Please help with this problem, right now im using a USB mouse and a on screen keyboard!
    I am using a HP pavilion g7 running windows 7 and AMD a6 vision.
    product key: P9BXR-F3G4G-HQD6J-XBMJP-93QKT 
     please help me
     BTW i did press somekeys while cleaning the laptop.

    Yes I installed the right drivers before trying to dual-boot with Linux. The issue was there from the beginning. But the issue appears only after 1 or 2 hours of use. It was mandatory for me to install Linux, for my studies. So I hope it doesn't break the warranty, because it would be unfair for people who need to do what I did.
    The problem is that I am right now in Finland, but I am French and I bought my netbook when I was in France. So if I send it back to HP France, it will take weeks and weeks to get it back here, and shipping cost will be really expensive, and I will be without computer during several weeks, which is impossible for me as I need it for my studies. That is why I want to go to HP Finland and ask them. I know I could call them but the last timeI called HP France, I waited for hours and didn't get any answer on the phone.

  • USB mouse and keyboard not working

    Any advice/thoughts/suggestions appreciated:
    All 3 USB ports at the back of my iMac have stopped working.  This means I can't use either a keyboard or mouse, so have no way of logging in.  I turn my iMac on, it boots up as usual, but when it gets to the login screen, the mouse and keyboard don't work and I get a message about bluetooth set-up. (Both my mouse and keyboard are wired, not bluetooth). 
    I have tried an SMC reset (by turning the iMac off, unplugging all USB devices and the power cable, leaving the iMac for a few minutes and then plugging the cable back in a turning it on again).  This didn't work.
    I've also tried a different version of the SMC reset where I hold down the power button whilst all the cables are unplugged and also as I plug the power cable back in.  After doing this, the fan turns on at full speed (v loud), but the mouse and keyboard still don't work.
    I've also checked my mouse on a different computer and it works fine.
    Has anyone got any other suggestions / workarounds?
    Note I can't do a PRAM reset because my keyboard doesn't work.
    Is it probably that the USB hardwear has failed?  If so, is it possible to repair this?  It is worth repairing given it is a 5/6 year old iMac (the white plastic one) which is probably on its last legs anyway?
    many thanks!
    Jez.

    Try the SMC reset again, only this time wait 5 minutes in set 3 instead of fifteen seconds.
    1. Shut down the computer.
    2. Unplug the computer's power cord.
    3. Wait fifteen seconds. 5 minutes.
    4. Attach the computer's power cord.
    5. Wait five seconds, then press the power button to turn on the computer.

  • Menu Bar and Keyboard not working

    Hi,
    My Ipad has encountered some very annyoing issues. Worked fine for 4/5 weeks since purchase and now this has started to happen.  I am unable to use Menu Bar at top of screen when Ipad is held in Portrait position. For example when in Safari, cannot input new email address, use back button, use X button. And its same with other applications - when in settings, the options on menu bar at top are not working - As if its Greyed out and not accessible.  When I flip Ipad into Landscape position, these options on Menu Bar are then working - very fustrating.
    Also same issue affecting keyboard. When holding Ipad in landscape position some keys do not work and they do when Ipad flipped back into Portrait position.
    Means i am constantly turning Ipad around in my hand endlessly trying to get it to function making it pointless to use. Only setting that I can see that may be affecting this is Lock rotation - but same issue with this selected or not.
    Anyway any help appreciated as Im not very tech savvy and only have Ipad few weeks. I've downloaded no apps, only used it for browsing internet so far. I have taken some photos and videos and really would hate to lose those.
    All comments appreciated! Thanks in advance.

    Forgot to mention that Ipad also keeps telling me that I cannot get Mail when I click on Mail icon - That Connection to server failed?

  • Bootcamp, Mighty Mouse and Keyboard not working

    Hi All,
    I just install yesterday Windows 7 (Ultimate 64bits) by Bootcamp in my iMac 21" (bought in 2013).
    During the installation, the Mighty Mouse and the keyboard were not working (except the first W7 screens, selecting partition and language), and now, installation finished, i got to use an external keyboard to select username and password, because Mighty Mouse and Wireless Keyboard are not working with Windows.
    I restart the computer using OSX and both are working fine.
    Could you please help me?
    Best

  • Touchpad and Fingerprint not working

    Hello, I own a lenovo T61 for over 6 months and evrything worked fine until about a week ago.
    Since then, both the touchpad and the fingerprint sensor  device have failed to work. tried unistalling and reinstalling the devices but its like they are not present as hardware in the system. 
    When I try to install the finger print software I get the following error: "Cannot find fingerprint sensor device".
    When I try reinstalling the UltraNav utility I get "This program can be installed on an Ultranav model system only".
    I would really appreciate your help into this matter.
    Thank you

    Welcome to the forum!
    Let's try to distinguish whether this is a software issue or a hardware malfunction...
    Download and burn a copy of a "live" Linux CD and boot from it.
    If UltraNav works, you have a problem within Windows.
    If it doesn't, it's a hardware malfunction and your warranty provider should be contacted.

  • Touchpad and touchscreen not working-Satellite C55Dt-B5205

    I just purchased a Satellite C55Dt-B5205 on Tuesday, ran all the updates, and everything was working fine. I upgraded to Windows 10, and now my touchpad and the left/right buttons do not work at all. The touchscreen works on everything except only intermittently on the Google Chrome browser (at least everything that I've tried). I have tried enabling the touchpad, but it says it's already enabled. So then I tried turning my computer off, unplugging everything, taking the battery out, and holding the power key for 30 seconds. That didn't work either. (It was an idea I found online.) I've also tried the F5 button, that does nothing also. The touchpad DOES work when I restart the computer, at the screen where I have to sign in to the computer, but once I sign in, it not longer works.Any help would be greatly appreciated, and just FYI, I'm not hugely computer savvy, so clear instructions would be better.

    I did some research last night. On Tom's hardware forum under post "Touchpad scroll not working - Windows 10" yoko_oh_no had a similar issue with their Satellite M-50-A and solved the problem with an earlier version of Elantech touchpad drive "Elantech_Touchpad_11.8.24.6". I've downloaded (from elsewhere) and installed this driver* 11.8.24.6 and all's fine on Windows 8.1 but I don't particularly want to re-install Windows 10 on my Satellite S50D-B-100 and find I've still got a problem with a non functioning touchpad. Perhaps someone who currently has Win 10 on their Satellite with a non working touchpad could give it a go? Important: Before trying the above first of all ensure that you have an Elan touchpad - not a Synaptics touchpad.Go to Control Panel and search for device manager, click on "Mice and other pointing devices" and check that it says Elan PS/2_SMBus Port Input Device or similar. *The only Elan downloadable drivers that showed for Satellite S50-B family on Toshiba Support (Computer Support -> Download Drivers) for my 64 bit Windows 8.1 were 11.8.22.3 and 11.8.29.5

  • LENOVO Z51 MOUSE AND KEYBOARD NOT WORKING AT SAME TIME

    I know this question has been asked before, but those solutions do not work for me. I just got my new Lenovo z51 80k60030us and I quickly put a game on it just to test out the waters. ran well. However, I can't move (use the keyboard) and look around (use the mouse) at the same time. I looked all over the internet and understood that it has something to do with "palm tracking" however no one had the solution for my specific mouse/keyboard issue. when I try and change the options under the lenovo mouse, it is grayed out. I tried everything to ungray it, but I have yet to succeed. help please??
