Keyboard not working on laptop with windows 8.1

i recently restarted my hp pavillion g6 windows 8.1 laptop and the keyboard refuses to work and cannot get the bios up at all. how do i get it working again? also the laptop is all up to date and is only just over a year old.

Hello @mdadd92,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! 
I have read your post on how the keyboard on your notebook computer is not working as it should, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
To get your notebook's keyboard to work again, I recommend following this document on Notebook Keyboard Troubleshooting (Windows 8). This should help return functionality to your computer's keyboard.
For further assistance, I will need to know:
The Product and Model Number of your notebook computer.
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, as well as the requested information above. I look forward to your reply!
Regards
MechPilot

  • Why did tethered capture stopped working on laptop with windows 8

    It had been working great but something happened between December 2013 and March 2014 and now it does not work on my laptop which is running windows 8. If I plug into the desktop everything works fine. I suspect there was an update that is not working right. Any ideas?

    OK - so today I bring the camera and tripod back to the PC today, and hey presto - is all starts working again.
    The PC had not even been restarted since it wasn't working yesterday.
    Anyone got any ideas why it might not have been working yesterday?
    Thanks,

  • HP 530 keyboard not working after trying out Windows 8

    Before I tried Windows 8, my HP 530's keyboard was perfectly functioning and my operation system was Windows 7. After installing Windows 8, my keyboard's #5, #6, - and all the function keys (F1, F2, ..., F12) no longer work. Even when I uninstalled Windows 8 and switched back to Windows 7, I can't get my keyboard to work anymore. I installed the HP quick launch buttons provided in the HP site specifically for HP 530 but it still won't work. Any suggestions? Thank you very much.

    I would have to agree. If your notebook is still in warranty, I would recommend calling HP phone support at 1-800-474-6836.

    however the pc is perfectly connected to the the TC wireless network.
    what can i do?

    Close and restart Photoshop if you have not already done so.
    In Photoshop, go to the Help - About Plug-in... menu then choose Camera Raw.  What version does it say there?

  • Keyboard not working after upgrading to windows 10

    I have upgraded my yoga pro 2 to windows 10, the keyboard works only in login screen after starting windows the keyboard is getting disabled, only the first line function keys are working.
    Please help

    , Hello and thanks for posting on the HP support forums.  The only option you have at the moment is to run the windows update troubleshooter and run any update recommended or optional.  If that does not fix it then you will need to roll back to the original supported operating system the x2 was built to run on. Here is the link for the troubleshooter. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Open-the-Windows-Update-troubleshooter Please let me know how things go.  Thanks again for the post and have a great day. 

  • Fn Keys or Hotkeys not working on T61 with Windows XP since last update

    System: T61 7662 CTO, Windows XP
    It's been a few months now and there's no new update to solve my problem. I have looked around the forum. I have found similar problems but not exactly the same problem.
    Ever since the last patch of update, the "ThinkVantage" key and most of the Fn Keys don't work. The non-functional Fn-keys include "Fn+F2, F3, F5, F7, F8, F9." The funny thing about Fn+F7 is that the screen flashes, but the normal display choices are not shown, and it goes back to normal display.
    On the contrary, the volume and brightness keys are functional and are properly displayed. Also, Fn+F4 (sleep) and wake-up by Fn+Enter works. Fn+Space (magnification) works too.
    I've also tried other successful solutions from other cases in this forum, but they all failed in my case. These includes:
    updating to the newest drivers
    Installing Lenovo System Interface Driver
    uninstalling and reinstalling in some kind of sequence
    Reverting the Hotkey back to the previous driver
    Thanks.

    I've too this problem, but more, my sound mute wasn't worked (for deblock, but it can block it few second before...) 5 days in 5-6 instalation of three version of winxp: winxp ru x64 sp2, winxp es/ru sp3 x32.
    eventually I've found and ran "TPOSDSVC.exe" in instalation directory and it give an opportunity  deblocking the sound volume!!!!!!!!!!!! and I don't need more functions 
    volume levels and brightness adjustment worked well without OSD (before I ran TPOSDSVC.exe) and with OSD.
    and now I don't know worked this bustered sound driver in winxp x64.

    I've managed to get my Canon CanoScan Lide30 's toolbox downloaded but it still won't work because it says it can't find the plug-in for it, but when I go that way in the applications and click on that, it doesn't change anything.  Scanner works fine on Windows 7.  Works with VueScan.  Paid $10 for used scanner to scan 3x/yr, don't want to pay $40/yr for VueScan.
    I bought it to work on Mac 10.4;  install CD and website says go, but reality says NO
    Can anybody help?

    Hi edward,

    What is your Warranty and Return Policy?
    You get to use VueScan for as long as you want before you buy it, so we recommend you test it before you buy it to make sure it meets your needs.
    All sales are final and there are no refunds.
    Isn't this a bit harsh? Naah I actually prefer to solve problems, and if I offer refunds, people give up too easily. If I can't solve your problem after you send a few Problem Reports (see above), I'm happy to give a refund.

  • APPLE mouse & keyboard not working with Windows (Bootcamp)

    I installed Leopard and Windows XP on my Mac Pro. The installation went very smoothly. Only problem I have is that my Apple wireless keyboard and mouse do not work on Windows (frozen) although they work fine on Leopard. I tried a Logitech wireless trackball and it works fine on both Windows and Leopard. Any suggestion?

    Thanks. I upgraded from Tiger and downloaded Bootcamp from Leopard Installation disc ( I did not have a beta version ). I then installed Windows XP SP2 ( brand new, just bought for that purpose ). Wonder if Mac wireless keyboard and mouse are compatible with Window. Everything else work beyond my expectation.

  • HT1339 my ipod shuffle(1st generation) is corrupted (error 1442) it will not restore.             is it possible to correct this or is it beyond repair. It worked the last time I used it on my laptop with Windows Vista. Vista.

    My ipod shuffle (1st generation) will not restore. It says it is corrupted(error 1442) Is it possible to correct this problem, or is it beyond repair. It worked last  time I used it on my laptop with Windows Vista. Any help would be much appreciated.

    Im actually tilting it up where it cinnects to my iPod, not where it connects to my computer, and i have tried three(yes, 3) different cables, one of which i bought brand new. still nothing, and i've also tried different USB ports on my computer,....nothing. Could this simply be a hardware failure of somekind? maybe a physical problem...i mean, why would i have to tilt the cable in order for my computer to actually read my iPod? im looking at the USB connector on my iPod (maybe it's my imagination, not sure) it possible might be bent, the little metal part in the port.

  • New laptop with Windows 8 does not recognize my Playbook. I had it working before on Windows 7.

    I have had my Playbook connected in the past and was able to transfer files with the WIFi switched off. On my new laptop with Windows 8 there is no recognition in "Computer" and Blackberry Desktop Software shows no connection.
    Is this a Windows 8 problem?
