Hp pavilion dv7 notebook numeric keypad not working

The numeric keypad on my hp pavilion dv7 notebook does not work. I can't get the num lock to work or any of the number keys to respond.

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.

The following steps were posted by @DavidPK. I am copying the steps I want you to try rather than just linking you the thread as it is quite long. I am also providing a link to the thread below.
“Right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices. Click the Recording tab, right click the 'Integrated Microphone array' and select Properties. Click the Microphone Enhancements tab and put a tick in the box next to 'Disable microphone enhancements'. Click Apply and Ok to save this change and the restart the notebook - has this made any difference?”

Numeric keypad not working

The numeric keypad no longer functions with my Apple keyboard when trying to input numbers with Excel or AppleWorks. It has functioned in the past. The screen just freezes. Not sure what might have caused the change. Trying a different known working keyboard with keypad does not work either.
Would doing a SMU reset help?
Any suggestions?
Disk Utilities corrected permissions but the problem persists.

Thanks for the hint, I found the following:

My numeric keypad doesn't work
The way the numeric keypad works depends on your computer, the keyboard you're using, the application you're working in, and whether the Num Lock key is engaged. Usually, the numeric keypad is used to enter numbers in a document, but in some applications you might be able to use the keypad to navigate (move around in) your document.
Press the Num Lock key to switch between the ways the numeric keypad functions.

Numeric Keypad not working with Forms6i and Netscape4.7 with Linux ??

Hello everybody.
trying to make things work, just found that can't make work numeric keypad while using Netscape 4.7 with forms in Linux.
Does someone can help me??
Thanks in advance..
Oxiel

That's bizarre. I don't think there are any OS X settings that will solve your problem. I would first check to make sure the "Num Lock" key on your keyboard is not set to disable your number pad. Then have a look at the Logitech support website. It's possible you need to download a driver or a patch of some sort. Or your problem might be covered in a FAQ or a knowledge base article there.

Compaq cq60-418dx Numerical keypad not working

Ok I a friend gave me their laptop after they dropped it and broke the screen. I removed the screen and hooked it up to my LCD monitor and everything was going fine until I upgraded from Vista to WIndows 7 (legitimate version). Now my numerical keypad don't work. Which isn't that big of a deal since the numbers are elsewhere on the keyboard but I want the volume keys and I play online game where I input numbers a lot and would love to have it working again. Any help would be appreciative.
PS, If you know how to turn the touchpad off that would be awesome. I have a USB mouse that I am using and am very tired of my thumb hitting the touchpad while hitting spacebar and stopping my typing.

Have you installed the Win 7 Keyboard drivers, HP Quick Launch? If you did an Upgrade install of 7 you probably still have older version installed. Uninstall it first.

There is a little button to turn the touchpad off, right beside the light at top of touchpad. It is shown in the manual for 'Pointing devices & keyboard here:

HP Pavilion dv7-3069wm touch controls not working

Above the keyboard, next to the power button there was a lit up mute, volume control, and wireless control. At one point the wireless and mute button stayed amber until I did a hard reset. Now they are completely gone. The volume control and DVD controls are lit up white, but don't work. The Quick Launch icon is also gone.
The HP Quick Launch software has been update, but still nothing. I've installed the latest BIOS, but that didn't help either.
Does anyone have any suggestions? The laptop is out of warranty.

I have a diferent problem but its also with a Pavilion dv7-3079wm. I bought it in february 9 of 2010 and today when i check the warranty i discovered that was allready finished.
When i have like an hour or hour and a half using the internet or word or just listen music, suddenly the laptop stop working and the image on the screen gets frozen. Anything works and i have to shut down by the power button.
It takes like 15 minutes to restart again.
But if i just started to use it and open a videogame (age of empires) or a program which needs more graphic memory (archicad 12) the computer stop working at 5 minutes.
Does anyone have the same problem??? Someone told me that the video card its damaged on this models, it's that true???

Presario numeric keypad not working

I've had a Presario CQ61-422 for about 18 months but never bothered with the numeric keypad before. Recently my daughter came round and borrowed the machine and she is used to entering numbers via the pad. Pressing the NumLock key gives a high pitch beep and turns the indicator light on but has no effect on the keypad - each one still acts in the navigation mode. Pressing NumLock again switches light off with low pitch beep but no difference to key functions.
I've updated the BIOS from F.20 (when purchased) to F.23 to no effect. I'm satisfied there is no physical malfunction to the keys but can't understand why they won't toggle between navigation and numeric entry. I've not played with any other system settings since purchase just used it out of the box as setup by HP. Anyone had a similar experience?
OS is Win7 home premium 64
This question was solved.

At last fixed the problem. I found out that Mouse Keys had been set on allowing direction arrow keys to move mouse pointer. Switched this feature off and Num Lock keys all now do what they should.

Numeric keypad not working, mouse in weird state

I've got a user with a mac mini, and this morning it started behaving really strangely. The numbers on the keypad don't work -- although the + - * / = 'enter' keys work. And they don't work as arrow keys or page up page down keys either.
Also, when launching excel, the cursor turns into a plus sign, and then when you select a field it highlights, but no key works to create input -- on the regular side or the keypad side of the keypad. And the mouse no longer works to click out of excel, quit the program, click on another window or click on a menu option or the apple menu. We have to use force quit from the keyboard (THAT still works) to get out of excel, and then we go back to the state where the keypad keys don't work but the rest of the keys do.
Started with a magic mouse, plugged in a regular mouse. Started with a non-apple keyboard, plugged in an apple keyboard. Started with the keyboard and mouse going through a usb hub, and now they are plugged into the back of the mini. So I'm pretty sure it's a software setting! I can't find anything on the System Preferences keyboard or mouse settings that looks remotely like a candidate for producing this behavior.
Oh, and yes, did zap the PRAM.

Try +System Preferences > Universal Access > Mouse.+
If the +Mouse Keys ON+ radio button is on, turn it off.
That allows you to use the numeric pad instead of a mouse to move the cursor.

HP Palion dv7 Notebook PC will not power up when power button is pressed.

My HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC will not power on when the power button is pressed. I have removed the battery, unplugged the AC adapter and pressed the power button for 15+ seconds then plugged in the AC adapter and pressed the power button for 15+ seconds. Then I release the power button and then press the power button again and the Notebook will power up and operate normally. I can reinstall the battery once it has powered up. What is causing this problem and how do I remedy the problem?

Hello Griff83147,
Unfortunately there could be a number of different things that caused that issue from drivers, software, possibly hardware. I am glad you got it up and running but there isn’t a clear picture of what actually caused. If a technician got the chance to work on it then they could at least narrow it down.
Sorry I could not answer your question, but this is one of those questions that can have multiple answers.
If you have any further questions don’t hesitate to ask.
Thanks

HP Pavilion Entertainment DV7 1240 Speakers are not working

Has anyone else had this problem the tool bar at the top of the notebook is amber and the speakers will not play, if I plug in a headphone they work. I can not seem to find the correct version of drivers to make this work. Any help? Would really like to have my speakers working again,
Thank you
PMR.

Hello Rick_of_Jonghap,
I understand that the speakers on your notebook computer are not working properly, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
To restore the audio to your notebook, I recommend following this document on No Sound from Speakers (Windows 7). This should help with the playback on your system.
In addition, you can also follow @SuperMario1's thread on Troubleshooting Guide: Audio does not Work after a Certain Period of Time. This guide should help with your notebook's audio output in regards to a recent Windows Update.
For more assistance, I will need to know:
1. If your computer has completed all of its important Windows Updates.
2. If you have updated your HP drivers using the HP Support Assistant.
3. If this is an on-going, or recent issue.
4. If plugging in headphones produce the same problem.
Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, as well as the requested information above. I look forward to your reply!

HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC won't play blu-ray anymore

HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook PC used to play blu-ray discs. it had been a while since i have tried to play one and my computer has, no doubt, updated countless times since.
when i load a blu-ray disc the HP DVD player starts, and there is a black screen which says 'loading' and to press play. pressing play does not start the disc. it used to ask me if i wanted to check for updates, but selecting 'yes' never seemed to find any, and selecting 'no' just brought you back to the same place.
i have tried downloading the sp50935 DVD update to fix the problem, but when installing i get a message that says the 'install has been stopped due to an unsupported operating system' (to that effect), but i use Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit Service Pack 1, the same that came installed when purchased.
any ideas?

Hi jim_douglas,
Welcome to the HP Forums! Sorry to hear about the blu-ray issues. I will be happy to help but I will need your product number?
