HP Pavilion dv7-3112sa keyboard not working

I know ive posted this before but i was wondering if anyone else can help as its still not solved.
the q w e r u i o p and the up and left arrow keys do not work on the laptop keyboard.
I have tried uninstalling the standard ps/2 keyboard and rebooting. I have also tried to get rid of the dust and crap from the keyboard and battery but still no luck.
any help would be much appreciated.

Some keys on my pavilion dv7 notebook keyboard not working

For a while now my backspace key and a host of other keys distributed across the keyboard, some on the main alphanumeric key area and others on the numeric key area, are not working. Even after reinstalling windows it's still the same. I tried removing the battery, pressing the power button for about 15seconds then replacing the battery cuz I heard it would reset the motherboard, but nothing changed. Please what else can I try.

Next step is to replace the keyboard. Keyboards tend not to be very expensive and replacement on your model is not too difficult. If you want to try it we need to know the country you live in to find the part.

HP Pavilion g4 Notebook Keyboard not working

I own a HP Pavilion g4 1015dx Notebook PC.
Since the last few weeks my laptop was making a lot of noise and also was not performing well. So, I read an article in HP's website about cleaning the fan.
So, I disassembled my laptop and cleaned the fan. Then, I put together all the things as it was before(at least I think I did). Then I turned on the laptop and the keyboard was not working. I checked the device manager and it showed 'keyboard wroking properly'. So, once again I disassembled the laptop and I couldn't spot the problem. There's three plastic cable strips connected to the motherboard from the keyboard case. One runs to the power button and the other two run to the touchpad. So, I do not see any wires directly connected to the motherboard from the keyboard. In device manger, it shows the keyboard as PS/2.
I haven't lost any inner laptop parts and to the best of my knowledege I have kept the things as they were. Can anyone help me with this problem??
Yeah and one more thing... there was a BIOS update before me doing all these things.
This question was solved.

never mind. I forgot to connect the keboard cable to the motherboard.

Pavilion dv7 fingerprint reader not working

Hi.
My HP Pavilion dv7 fingerprint reader isn't working. I have the SimplePass software that's powered by AuthenTec. When I open the SimplePass software, it doesn't seem like it knows I have a fingerprint reader.
I've tried installing new drivers but I can't seem to get anything to work.
Any help is really appreciated.

lyscarn,
Could be the order in which you are doing things, could be the HP SimplePass version would be happier on a different version, could be that you just need to kick the system (metaphorically speaking).
Assuming you are running Windows 7 or Windows 8 AND that you are not running Digital Persona
then
the following may help.
Find, open, and follow the instructions in the file named: Simple Instructions to Upgrade HP SimplePass
Kind Regards,

My pavilion dv7 speakers are not working. neither is the jack for headphones. is it the sound card

The sound was great a couple weeks ago, but now all of a sudden its not even working. The laptop has been in one place the whole time and was not bumped or anything.

Go to the link below.Enter your Product Number as listed on Service Tag attached to bottom of notebook (may be under battery). You can also get the Product Number by pressing Fn + Esc key. After entering PN, click Next ,then choose Software & Drivers.On the next page use the dropdown to select your OS (probably Windows 7 64bit). A list will populate with drivers. Download & Savethe latest Audio driver.

Go into Control Panel,Programs & Features-uninstall IDT software.Restart the laptop and install using the downloaded file.
```````````````````````````````````````
If still no sound,try a hard reset.Disconnect all external devices first.
1-remove power cord and battery
2-press power button for 30 seconds
3-reinstall only power cord for first startup.
4-power on

If still no resolution ,enter BIOS setup by tapping/holding the F10 key immediately after powering on the laptop. Reset to Default settings,(usually tap F9,check bottom of screen), Save & Exit.

HP Pavilion g6 Notebook PC - Keyboard not working

HP Pavilion g6 Notebook PC - Keyboard not working
My Windows 8 - 64 bit laptop keyboard stopped working. I tried to uninstall and reinstall as explained in the support pages. but doesn't seem to work. Is it dead? what is the solution. Please help
Thank you

Hi,
While this could be a hardware issue, it's always worth trying the following.
Open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager, expand Keyboards, right click the entry 'Standard PS/2 Keyboard' and select Uninstall.
Shutdown the notebook.
Then unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery. Hold down the Power button for 30 seconds. Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu. Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter. Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
Note: If the keyboard doesn't work when trying to access or navigate the Bios Menu, then this is probably a hardware fault.

HP Pavilion G6 - Keyboard Not Working

I am having a problem with the mothers laptop, it was working fine yesterday but when turned on today some of the keys have stopped working! Its the top row of letters, Q to P with the exception of T & Y and also the up and left arrows are not working, just wondering if anyone has experienced this in the past? I have removed the keyboard and cleaned it, made sure it was connected properly and it was. I have removed the battery, held down the power button for 30 seconds and then reinserted the battery. I have loaded the default settings in the BIOS. I have uninstalled the keyboard and the restarted the laptop. None of these have worked and I am now stumped! So any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank You

Hi ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues, with help from the community!
I came across your post about the Notebook, and wanted to assist you! I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion g6-2044so Notebook and issues with the keyboard not working. You can do a system restore. System restore will help if something automatically updated and did not go well on the Notebook. When performing a System restore please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices including the USB keyboard, as they can cause issues. I hope this helps.
Thanks.

Hello schneids,
I see that you are having start up problems with your HP computer. I have a couple of suggestions that may help with your issues.
Here is a link to some troubleshooting steps that may help resolve your issues.
If you are still having trouble I would suggest testing the power adapter or trying a different power adapter. Most retailers will let you try a power adapter on the computer to see if it works.
Let me know what happens.

HP Pavilion Volume Touch-Pad NOT WORKING | NO SOUND HELP

HP Pavilion Volume Touch-Pad NOT WORKING
I have an HP Pavilion dv3t - 2000, Windows Vista computer.
SOMEONE DID ALREADY HELP ME HERE WITH THIS PROBLEM BUT THEY STOPPED RESPONDING | Please check that link out!
The volume touchpad above the keyboard is not working properly (There is no sound coming out of the speakers or the headphone jack) , If you touch the megaphone part of the touchpad above the keyboard then it stays red, however the sound icon on the taskbar changes from mute to unmuted when you touch the red megaphone. The volume slider on the touchpad works suprisingly.
I don't know if I uninstalled something or what but I need this problem fixed!
Thanks!

Hi,
Shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and remove the battery.
Follow the procedure detailed on Page 63 of your Maintenance & Service Guide to remove the RTC battery. Hold down the power button for 30 seconds.
Leave the notebook for 10 minutes and then re-insert the RTC battery, re-assemble and replace the cover, insert the battery, plug in the AC Adapter and start the notebook. Tap away at f10 as soon as you start the notebook to enter the bios menu. Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter. Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
If you still have no audio and the installer you downloaded previously still doesn't detect the Hardware, it would start to look like a Hardware failure, but to try and rule out any further software cause, try the following.
Follow the procedure on the link below to create a bootable Ubuntu CD and follow the steps in Part 3 to 'Try it' to see if this OS will run. The 'Try it' option runs the OS from the CD without the need to install on your HDD. If this runs Ok ( it will be slow running from a CD ) and you still have no audio output, this would tend to confirm a Hardware issue.

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

My MacBook Pro keyboard not working correctly after Win7 bootcamp installation. In OSx boot it keep Win keyboard. How can I have Mac keyboard in OS boot and Win keyboard in Win boot?

My MacBook Pro keyboard not working correctly after Win7 bootcamp installation.
Installation went well but when I boot either with OSx or Win it always keeps Windows keyboard.
How can I have Mac keyboard in OS boot and Win keyboard in Win boot?

Hi - I have the exact same model as your MacBook and had a few questions as mine is acting up. I upgraded the ram to 8gb (2x 4GB ram) and ever since then my computer has not been running as smoothly and the start up time is horrendous. Have you encountered this problem? And if so how did you fix? What would you advise me do?
I was thinking of reverting back to the original factory 4GB then rebooting the entire computer. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
Allen
