8.1 Disabled number keys and audio driver

I have a Lenovo G780 lap top that I just bought about a year in a half ago. I purchased it from Lenovo with Windows 8.0. When I updated to 8.1 recently, it wiped out the use of several of my numeric keys on both the number keys at the top across on my keyboard and also on my numeric keypad. The update also wiped out my Dolby Audio Driver. Does anyone know how to resolve this? I already had a Microsoft tech dial into my laptop remotely and he was unable to resolve it and referred me to Lenovo. Ugh. BTW - the only way I am able to type several the the different numbers is by connecting an external keyboard to my lap top. These are the numbers that work using the number keys going across the top of my laptop keyboard: 123456 These are the numbers that work using the laptop number key pad on the right of my laptop keyboard: 13456789 In both cases, the zero key is not working.

Punkinero,
For the “unable to start the Dolby audio driver”, you can use the following knowledgebase article to correct it:
http://support.lenovo.com/en/documents/ht100126
For the non functioning numeric keys, try doing this:
- Go to the Control Panel, Ease of Access Center, Set Up Mouse Keys. At the bottom under Other Settings: Use mouse keys when NUM LOCK is: Make sure OFF is selected.
I hope this helps!
Cheers, Erich_Lenovo

Because the operating system does not affect the keyboard in that way . .. If the operating system has issues it would switch keys or assign wrong characters.
I have replaced over 200 keyboards because of such issues

Hello there,
It sounds like you're going to either need your keyboard replaced, or have the buttons fixed. You can either have this done professionally, or personally, since the warranty states that you're permitted to replace the keyboard. For more information on how to replace it, visit this pdf and scroll down to keyboard, under replacement. https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&ei=4U2bVeSZOMSu-QGwtIuIBQ&url=http://h10032.www1.hp.com/ctg/Manual/c03935332&ved=0CCIQFjAB&usg=AFQjCNFI7Za3MTOYi3U2gqYwky_v2R-eIA&sig2=BEpyqWkFFkSjkR0z4r5v-Q

HP Pavilion g6-1201tx Notebook PC video and audio driver for graphics card

Hi:
Below is the link to the support and driver page for your notebook.

Zoom H4n and audio driver error -2

I have a newish Intel Macbook with GB 09, and a Zoom H4n recorder that I have been using as an USB input device into GB with no problems.
However, GB no longer recognizes the H4n. The drill is to have GB open and connect the H4n to a USB port. The computer detects the device and asks if I want to use it as an input device. I say yes, and then this message appears:
"error code -2 was returned by the audio driver"
Is this a problem in the Mac? Do I need to reinstall something?

Hi there,
Did you by any chance ever find a solution to your problem with the H4n?? I'm having exactly the same problem. I think it might have something to do with a preference file. I didn't disconnect the zoom properly before unplugging it, and since then I am having the same problems as you??? Very frustrating....
Thanks.

How to disable action keys and hotkeys??

Hi, ihave HP G56 Notebook PC
i have all these strange hotkeys on my laptop doing non-standard things.. it's pretty confusing.. Alt-F4 doesn't work anymore, for instance, since the F4 key is now a monitor key.. How can i make it also the F1-F12 keys by default.. like when i press F1 it's just F1.. because when i play a game on my laptop when i press F1 key it doesn't work..
Please Help me!!
Thanks..

You Can disable that functionality by disabling "Action Keys Mode" in the BIOS...
Here is the document, that will help you with it... http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02035108&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_R1002_US

G560 and audio driver with XP

Iv'e upgraded my G560 to XP. I get a blue screen sometimes, it mentions a driver problem, unfortunatly I did note not down the exact error mesage, but it was very generic, so I do not know what device's drive coudl cause this.
I see 2 oddities in Device manager:
Under "Monitor", "Thinkpad Display 1366x768" is listed twice.
Shouldn't there be only one monitor listed? Can I disable one?
Under "Sound, video and game controllers", I see 2 audio related drivers listed:
Conexant SmartAudio HD
And
Intel(R) Display Audio
Do I need both drivers?
Thanks for any help,
Lukas

If you want help it's bad idea to introduce yourself with bashing posts. Please stop that MSI bashing.
The Realtek driver works problem must be elsewhere. What means it doesn't work? No sound on front or rear panel connectors? Are sure to have used XP64 and not XP32 drivers? Does devbice manager of windows show the device unknown or with an exclamation mark?
I only use rear panel because of my 5.1 setup, and the speaker works perfectly in windows 8 x64 and ubuntu
My machine use triple boot OS'es >>> xp x64, win 8 x64, and ubuntu
And yes, there are several exclamation marks in device manager, and the realtek driver doesn't work at all, I installed all the other xp x64 driver from the product support section
I have erased the xp x64 partition, and I tried to install the realtek driver in xp x64 virtual machine, and it even shows the same symptoms, either failed install or successfull install with no sound at all, and sound section of the control panel, said "no audio device"
This is the first time I encountered so many problem with one mobo during years of my computer hobby
Yes, I want help, but I don't count much on it
MSI may ban me, MSI is very much welcome to take any further actions on me

Disable F11 key and Alt E keys in IE Browser running Captivate Movie?

I am creating a training module where as part of the user input (that will trigger various functions on screen in Captivate 4), the user has to hit at one point or another F11 and Alt E.
Of course, when he hits F11, the IE window maximizes out, as well as triggers the desired function on screen.
Same when he hits Alt E, the "Edit" drop down in the IE toolbar drops down.
Any way to use some kind of script in Captivate to disable those when the movie is running? I can't have all the users of this training disable these in their registry files...that would not work.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Rob

Well, sort of.
I found a setting on my LMS that plays in full screen mode, which solved the problem.

The keyboard number keys and symbols above them will not work. I nothing at all except a space or they last letter key used, but works fine in other applications such as MS Word. The number pad works just fine. Any one have any thoughts on this.

I had to do a reinstall and upgrade to Windows 7, so I may have missed something. Running a 64bit OS. Problem only seems to be in the browsers.

You may have '''Switched ON Caret Browsing'''. press '''F7 (on Mac: fn + F7)''' to toggle '''Caret Browsing ON/OFF'''
* click '''Firefox''' button and click '''Options''' -> Advanced -> General -> remove Checkmark from '''Always use the cursor keys to navigate within pages'''

Check and tell if its working.

We believe that this will be the best performer in the neighborhood for a while and that’s why AMD was using pre-production Nforce 2 boards from Asus to show the power of their new FSB 333 processors.
We think that Nvidia learned a lot from the original Nforce and that the same mistakes will not be repeated and that the stability of Nforce 2 will be on higher level than original Nforce with of course, more mature drivers.
Motherboards should be available in middle October at the earliest.
