Hello F1503,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I have read your post on how the light on the num lock key of your notebook is not illuminating, and I would be happy to assist you!
To enable the light on the num lock key, I recommend following this document on Some Function Keys or Keyboard Shortcuts Do Not Work Correctly with Windows 7. This resource should help provide a hotfix for your num lock key.
For further assistance, I will need to know:
If your computer has completed all of its important Windows Updates.
If you have updated your HP drivers using the HP Support Assistant.
If this is an on-going, or recent issue.
Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your reply!

Caps lock/scroll lock/num lock/ LEDs not working - instead pop-ups in bottom RH corner of screen

Specific details; p/n: GS066PA#ABG, 4 GBytes DDR2 RAM, OS Windows 7 (6.1) Ultimate Edition 64-bit Service Pack 1 (Build 7601) DirectX 11.0. LED's were working but during one of the windows automatic updates they stopped working. I don't know which update. Now I get little pop-ups "CAPS LOCK: ON" etc (black text on white background). If I rename bttray.exe to bttray1.exe and restart the laptop, that kills the pop-ups in the bottom RH corner of the screen but it does not restore the operation of my blue indicator LED's. Can anyone help please?

Hi @haggis1 ,
I saw your post regarding the problems with the pop-ups and LED lights not working after a Windows Update. Most likely there was a problem with the update when it was installed. This Microsoft Support link will show you how to uninstall an update. Try uninstalling the most recent updates and the restart the notebook and see if the LEDs start working again.
If that fixes the issue then there is another section in that link entitled: I remove an update but it gets automatically installed. That will show you how to hide an update.

Portg Z30-A-108 - Num lock does not work on external keyboard

Hi,
We have a Portg Z30-A-108. We use it with external wireless keyboard and mouse. On the external keyboard is used, the num pad does not work (as if the "num lock" was off). I tried using the function key FN+F11 on the laptop but without any succes.
Does somebody had the same problem or any idea to solve it ?
Thanks.
Nicolas

>On the external keyboard is used, the num pad does not work (as if the "num lock" was off)
You are talking about the external keyboard.
But from my knowledge the internal Portg Z30-A-108 keyboard does not contain the num pad. Possibly this is the reason why the Num Lock is turned off.
By the way: the NumLock can be enabled in the system registry.
Open Windows registry editor using the command regedit.
In the registry, go to the folders.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\ Control Panel\ Keyboard\
Within the keyboard folder, you should find a string value named "InitialKeyboardIndicators" with a value of 0, 1, or 2.
Here the value meaning:
0 = Num Lock is turned OFF after the logon.
1 = Disable Num Lock.
2 = Numlock is turned ON after the logon.

Caps lock light not working properly

My Laptop caps lock is not working properly , when i press it , the light just flashes and dissappear , the light is suppose to stay there , the things that i type will still be in caps though , any idea how this happens?

Hey,
Sorry to hear about the keyboard problem.
In a post a while back had this to say. He makes a suggestion that the keyboard might need to be replaced, then the person with the question tried something else. You might take a look and see if there's something there that will help.
Thanks for coming to the forum.
Hope I helped,

Wireless keyboard caps lock light not working

Hey, said it all in the title but here's the story...
Got home today and realized that the caps lock LED don't light up anymore. Has anyone else had similar problems? If so, how was your situation rectified?
The keyboard still works fine, don't think its a bad enough problem to have it replaced or be without it for ages. Could see if apple will allow a straight swap at the shop...

Hi Guys
Glad I've just found these posts. Got a new 27" iMac just before Christmas. Greatly relieved that everything worked despite all the reports of cracked screens, etc. BUT - only small problem was the Caps Lock light not always coming on. Rang Apple and got a replacement. Now today I'm having same problems - first the light froze and wouldn't go off. Then it wouldn't come on. I've now tried your advice of switching off the keyboard and taking out the batteries. Works OK now. Hopefuly it'll stay that way. Only thing is - pity Apple couldn't have given me that advice. Reading these posts, there is clearly an ongoing problem with the caps lock light on the wireless keyboard. A problem thats been around for months. Clearly Apple's poilicy, as always, is to admit nothing until it comes up with a fix. Pity that policy appears to extend to not even telling their own employees that there is a problem ...

Num lock is not working

I posted this message a while ago and just doing a follow up. Hope somebody's out there,
My num lock function is not working properly when I press the F6 button. It's a 1.5 GHz PowerPC G4, running Tiger OS 10.4.11. When I want to use the num lock, all of the num lock keys start working like a directional button and disables hot corners, the track pad and pretty much everything else except F1-12. The only way to regain control is to force quit the program that I originally started using it in. Any thoughts. Anyone?

How about removing the keyboard ... here's how to do that: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=95132 The article title is how to replace memory but it has the instructions for removing the keyboard also. Very handy article to save!
There might be dust or lint particles there. I use a can of compressed air with the keyboard ON about once a month or mine stick too. Maybe that will help.

My num lock key not working.

My num lock appears to have stopped working. I have a HP Pavilion dv6 notebook running Windows 7 with a 10 key pad integrated with the keyboard.

Caps lock light not working, can't tell if it was after upgrade or just use

Has anybody else experienced this?: My Powerbook G4's caps lock light doesn't lit anymore.
Was it because of the ugprade from Tiger 10.4.10 to Leopard 10.5.0?
Anybody?

Geez, it's working again... I think there is some type of malfunction when waking it up from sleep.

Compaq Presario F767NR caps lock,scroll,touch pad blue light not working

Hi,
I have a Compaq Presario F767NR. It downgrade it to xp. All my drivers are ok. But caps lock,scroll,touch pad blue light not working though its function is ok.
I think led is ok. I find that for the scroll lock when i press fn+num lk then the blue light works fine.

I have the same problem and I think it started when I downloaded the SP2 for the Windows Vista. So probably it is not a problem of the laptop. I have an HP Pavilion dv9500 notebook PC.

HP Pavillion dv6446 caps/num lock lights won't light

i had my laptop screen replaced and when i got it back the caps lock/num lock lights wern't working. i took it back to the guy who fixed it and he told me it he couldn't replace the LED's because they needed to be replaced and he didn't know how to replace LED's mounted to the motherboard. i found it a bit funny that both LED's blew at the exact same time, especially since i had several other problems that appeared after he replaced the screen (those problems have since been fixed by myself). is there some controller that has been messed with that would cause the LED's to not light up?

I am facing the same problem with my dv6500 and never had a so big issue as yours. I believe leds are ok (when I press "fn" + num lock) this led lights up. I would really appreciate a help from HP in this issue.

Caps Lock LED not working in X unless I hold shift

Hi, I recently installed Arch, installed X and configured it as the wiki says, installed awesome and now I switched the language toggle to Caps Lock instead of Alt+Shift.
I hoped the LED would tell me what language I'm typing in. But I noticed the LED wasn't working (Num Lock LED does work however).
I looked on the forum and it said to use
kbd_mode -u
to switch the keyboard to UTF-8 and it'll be fine.
Now Scroll Lock works too (it didn't before), but Caps Lock does something weird, it lights up for a split second then immediately turns back off. That unless I hold shift when I press Caps Lock, then it works fine, but I don't want to hold shift...
So how can I make it work?
EDIT: In the tty Caps Lock works fine.
Thanks.

Standard troubleshooting procedures in order are power the iPhone off and on, Reset, Restore and if no change after and or all in order, call AppleCare (800) 694-7466 or make an appointment at an Apple Store if there is one nearby.
Although others may have experienced the same, this does not mean the majority have.

HP Laptop. Blank screen and caps and num lock lights flashing.

Hi,
I hope you can help me.
My laptop is the HP Pavilion DV6-1216sa, bought new in September 2009. When I turn it on, I get a blank screen, the fan is working and the wifi, volume and mute lights light up. The caps lock and num lock lights flash together, once everyone 3 or 4 seconds. Normally when this happens (it has happened throughout the life of the laptop), I turn it off and turn it back on, and it works again. However this time, the problem persists. I've tried most combinations to get the bios screen up and I've tried getting it to another screen via hdmi and VGA, but no signal received. I have tried everything recommended by the HP support website. I have checked the battery, ram, and hard drive.
Best regards,
Jay

The best cheapest fix is if you can remove the motherboard your self and send it to a refabricator who will check all the chips on the motherboard and reball the bad ones. Cost is about $60-120, closer to the bottom if you can ship them just the board but if necessary they will take the whole laptop and remove the board for you.

2009 Aluminum Keyboard caps lock light not functioning

Greetings:
I bought my wireless keyboard in February 2010 and it works but lately the caps lock light has not been coming on when I hit the caps lock key. I took it to a local Apple Specialist to try to figure out what is going on and it of course worked when he paired it to his machine.
I got it back home and re-paired it to my mini (2009 2.25 mhz intel) and it worked for the day... now it is not functioning again. I unpaired the keyboard and re-paired it again and the light functions again for the time being. But if it holds to pattern, tomorrow it will be non-functioning again.
I have the latest update for the keyboard installed and I am at Snow Leopard 10.6.3 on the system.
It appears that if the keyboard goes to sleep, this phenomenon happens. Any ideas?

I think that re-pairing the keyboard does essentially the same thing as restarting the machine would do with regards to resetting the keyboard. I did replace the batteries today just to see if that would help. -- so far, the light is working still and the keyboard has been asleep for a couple of hours since I replaced the batteries. They showed 81% when I replaced them this morning.
I would like to know if this is a common problem. The keyboard always works, just the caps lock light stops working which is annoying for me because I tend to hit it by accident and the light is a good way to see that I did, in fact, hit the key.
I am marking the question as answered, but hopefully someone has a real fix for it, or Apple has a new firmware update coming soon
