Large Letters as I type

Hi, I have inadvertantly hit an unknown key command and now I get large characters flashing up on the screen as I type. Since I do not know what this feature is called, I cannot turn it off.... can anyone help me do this? I have looked in 'Accessibility' prefs, but do not see anything obvious.

Hello JoeyR,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
With the keyboard freezing, and missing letters that you type. I would suggest the following document 'Notebook Keyboard Troubleshooting (Windows 8)'. The part of the document that you will want to complete are Pressing keys does noting (keyboard is not working), and Key presses are slow to respond.
Please let me know the outcome of the troubleshooting.
Thank you.
I worked on behalf of HP

  • I-phone unlock screen has very large letters and numbers.

    I-phone has large letters and numbers on the unlock screen. can see only about 1/4 of the screen it's so large. can't see the slide to unlock bar, only part of the actual time. will not compress with fingers. phone recieves e-mail/phone calls but can't unlock it. tried restore twice and shutting phone off. pulled SIM card too. when it's restoring the screen is normal size as soon as it's finished it goes back to super -size.

    I'm having exactly the same problem, but It doesn't do a thing when I tap it twice or even three times. It's just locked on my screen saver. I can unlock it with some difficulty, because the screen is so enlarged. But, then I just get a big screen with numbers. I've reset it multiple ways, but with no luck.

  • [SOLVED] Value too large for defined data type in Geany over Samba

    Some months ago Geany started to output an error whith every attempt to open a file mounted in smbfs/cifs.
    The error was:
    Value too large for defined data type
    Now the error is solved thanks to a french user, Pierre, on Ubuntu's Launchpad:
    https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/ … comments/5
    The solution is to add this options to your smbfs/cifs mount options (in /etc/fstab for example):
    ,nounix,noserverino
    It works on Arch Linux up-to-date (2009-12-02)
    I've writed it on the ArchWiki too: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Sam … leshooting

  • Alter mount database failing: Intel SVR4 UNIX Error: 79: Value too large for defined data type

    Hi there,
    I am having a kind of weird issues with my oracle enterprise db which was perfectly working since 2009. After having had some trouble with my network switch (replaced the switch) the all network came back and all subnet devices are functioning perfect.
    This is an NFS for oracle db backup and the oracle is not starting in mount/alter etc.

  • 'Value too large for defined data type' error while running flexanlg

    While trying to run flexanlg to analyze my access log file I have received the following error:
    Could not open specified log file 'access': Value too large for defined data type
    The command I was running is

    Which should generate a html report of the web statistics
    The file has approx 7 Million entries and is 2.3G in size
    Ideas?

    I've concatenated several files together from my web servers as I wanted a single report, several reports based on individual web servers is no use.

  • Keyboard missing letters as i type

    I bought my laptop about 6 weeks ago and this has been a problem since day 1.I tried to chat with online suppot but the chap did not help me. When I type, every now and then the cursor freezes and - whilst it has frozen - the subsequent letters i type do not appear. Then it will unfreeze and the letters will continue as i type.This happens randomly and sporadically. It doesn't matter if I am typing fast or slowly, it still happens. As a result - say I were to type the line 'I went for a walk in the rain. I saw a black dog. I waved and said hello....'
    It might appear something like: 'I went for a walk in the rin. Iaw a black dog. Iwaved andsaid hllo....'
    As ilook up at the screen i see that what i intended to type has not appeared. Very frustrating and it is becoming time consuming with work and emails as i have to constantly correct. It is also an issue whilst entering passwords. ********* etc. Just wondering if someone can suggest help / a fix for this issue??? Thanks in advance.

  • When I use the Norton Safe Search box in Firefox 3.6.19 the letters that I type group together and disappear behind the search button at the end of Norton Safe Search....any help?

    I don't know how much more I can add...However, when I type in the Norton Safe Search box up to the search button in Norton Safe Search I can continue to type but I can't see what is being typed because it doesn't allow me to see the trailing end of what I'm typing. This along with the fact that the letters and words don't always automatically advance a space, they group together as I'm typing and I have to stop, provide a space and continue once again. This only happens in Mozilla Firefox, I'm using Firefox 3.6.19. This doesn't happen in the Norton Safe Search Box in Internet Explorer

    Maybe another extension that you have installed is causing that problem with that Norton Safe Search add-on.
    http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes <br />
    Disable all other extensions and see if Norton works correctly. <br />
    I so, start enabling extensions one at a time until you find the culprit.
    If not, create a new Profile and verify that Norton is the only extension that appears in the new Profile and see if it works correctly. <br />
    http://kb.mozillazine.org/Creating_a_new_Firefox_profile_on_Windows
    If not, the problem is with the Norton add-on.
