USB Keyboard Drivers do not work Acer Aspire X3470

Hi!  I am having a hard time trying to find the correct Driver for my Acer Aspire X3470.  Currently I am using the standard PS/2 Keyboard to input commands.  But I do not want to use that Keyboard and I want to use my USB Keyboard. I tried everything to get the right driver for it but I am having no luck at all... is there anyone that could possibly help me identify this problem¿ 

Hi rnoctus83, The keyboard should have an installation CDC for the driver or once you connected the system should look for the driver automatically, i would suggest to go directly to the manufactures page of your keyboard and look for the driver and installed manually and if it works that way.

  • My usb port drivers are not working

    What did you plug into the usb port. 
    Have your tried multiple devices?
    When was the last time they worked?
    Try removing the drivers in device manager.
    Then reboot and let them reinstall
    If that fails the try a System Restore to previous date when they did work.
    Here is how to do a System Restore

  • Certain keyboard keys don't work Acer Aspire V3-571G

    Hello, A few months ago I began to have issues with my Acer Aspire V3-571G-9435 where certain keys would intermittently stop working. Most often it would be the "A" key, along with less frequently the "C" and "Z" keys, and somtimes other keys. Within a minute or so they would start working again. A couple weeks ago, however, several of the keys, including the "A" "C" "Z" "F" "," "." and some other keys stopped working altogether (all at once). Following some guides I found online, I took the laptop apart and was able to take the keyboard ribbon cable out of its connector and put it back in, thinking it may be a loose connection issue. However, this did not fix the issue. I went online and ordered a new keyboard from Amazon, thinking the keyboard itself might be broken. After installing the new keyboard however, and entirely NEW set of keys have stopped working, including "J" "Q" "T" "U" "P" "1" and a few other keys. (However most of the keys that weren't working previously are working again). Does anyone have any other suggestions about what I should do? I've been using an external USB keyboard, which works fine, except obviously portability is sacrificed. I'm unsure if this is a hardware or software issue, as a brand new keyboard still isn't working properly. Could there still be something wrong with the connection? Is there a possible software/diver issue? Thanks for any help.

    jmckeen,
    A new keyboard means a new ribbon cable so that leaves the only constant, the motherboard; pending the unit was not damaged in any way from like dropping it or spilling something on it. If you are in warranty I would see about creating a repair for it. Here is the link to set up repairs online, or you can chat online with a technician (available 24/7).

  • Lenovo USB keyboard - Trackpoint/Touchpas not working

    I am now experiencing the same problem in Win7 as I barely got away with in Vista.
    The problem is as follows:
    - I have the Lenovo USB keyboard with built in Trackpoint and Touchpad (wonderful).
    - When I installed this keyboard in Vista it worked out of the box, but in Windows Update I got a recommended update for newer/better drivers.
    - When I installed this driver, the Trackpoint and Touchpad stoppet working - so I had to restore my system and hide these updates in Windows Update.
    - So when I install Win7 RTM these drivers seems to install with the system, and therefore the Trackpoint and Touchpad on my external keyboerd does NOT work out of the box. I do not get any updates for this either.
    Tried solutions:
    - I have tried to install the keyboerd drivers.
    - The driver with Hotkeys installs alright, but does not solve the problem.
    - The regular keyboard driver will not install, because it says that I there is a newer Synaptics-driver which has to be removed first.
    - Well, there are no installed Synaptics-drivers to be removed - probably because these drivers are installed with the system.
    - I have also tried to diable the PS/2 driver etc. but nothing works.
    --> So, I am actually stuck with my wonderful external Lenovo USB keyboard without being able to use the Trackpoint or Touchpad. The worst although is that I know whats making the problem, but do not know how to solve it...
    Can anybode please help, I cannot believe I am the only one having this problem (in Vista or in Win7).

    I have a USB Travel Keyboard with UltraNav. I am not sure if it is the same as yours. But I have used the following two drivers (for Vista) and the keyboard has been working fine under Vista. Recently I upgraded to Windows 7. The vista driver seems still working fine.
    http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?lndocid=MIGR-66917
    One issue I found is that I cannot run the setup.exe to get the keyboard driver installed, it will claim something like OS specific program not found. But if you go inside the folder to find dpinst.exe, run it and you are good to go.
    And this link for all possible drivers.

  • USB Keyboard - Insert key not working

    I've an HP KU-9963 usb keyboard plugged into a Dell laptop running Windows XP (all the latest updates), where all keys appear to function ok except for the Insert keys. Pressing either Insert key doesn't cause the LED to light and I get no insert action.
    Has anyone ever experienced this with a usb keyboard? Could Microsoft's driver possibly be the culprit?

    Ok, here is the solution I got from HP support. I checked it out in Word and it works:
     If you click the Office Button – click on Word Options – then click on Advanced. Under the Section for Editing options. There is a place to select use the Insert key to control overwright mode.

  • My external Apple USB Keyboard letters doesn't work, but the numbers do. Why and how can I fix this issue?

    My external Apple USB Keyboard letters doesn't work, but the numbers do. Why and how can I fix this issue? Also, When I open the Keyboard Viewer, the letters will highlight only if I hold the modifier key(s) "Control" or "Control and Option". I really need help with this. I don't have any other computer to try it on, so I will have to test it on a friends computer sometime. But perhaps solutions that I can try right now? Thanks.

  • Keyboard and mouse not working

    both keyboard and mouse not working. I have changed batteries and checked drivers  please help..  thank you

    Thanks for the information, that is exactly what I needed.
    If you are having the enter issue when using the wired KB from your old computer that sounds software related with the blog site.
    What web browser do you use when on that website?
    Connect your wireless equipment back and if you continue to have the issue with the letters repeating then you should inquire about a replacement for what is referred to as "sticky keys".  With it being a new unit this shouldn't be an issue.
    Let me know if you have other questions.

  • Keyboard and touchpad not working after Windows 10 update

    after udating windows 10 on my probook 4440s keyboard and touchpad not working. if i press a key for 10seconds the key then shows up in the screen. and touchpad is worst. it freezes all the time barely moves. but with usb mouse it works fine 

    It's known that installing Windows from an external DVD drive on a Mid 2013 MacBook Air causes that the keyboard doesn't work after finishing the installation. The fix is to install Windows by using a USB drive. See > http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4599

  • HP notebook keyboard and mouse not working

    Hi
    I spilled tea on my notebook. Now the system boots but keyboard & mouse do not work. Therefore I am not able to
    login at the windows screen. When I hardboot, on pressing esc it goes to boot menu, but then the keyboard stops working
    so I cannot go to safe mode or recovery mode. I also tried pressing F11 to enter BIOS, but it does not work.
    I can however access it via LAN and since I had shared the C drive, I was able to recover the data. Do you have any idea
    how I can restore the system now ? I do not have the recovery disks.
    Are there any particular function keys to press while booting ?
    Thanks a lot for your help

    Thoughts on a Soggy System:
    Have you tried the obvious -- connecting an external keyboard and mouse?  If you are not near a store where you can buy these, you can order them online as a set.  Almost anything would do and Windows 7 and 8 install basic drivers for most keyboards and mice without problems when the system comes online.
    If you have not waited for several days for things to REALLY dry out before attempting to get back onto the system, then you may get away with this yet - if you WAIT for a few days.  Chances are not great, but ... ?
    If you can get the system to a repair shop, it is not terribly expensive to have the keyboard / touchpad replaced -- assuming that is all that is wrong with the system -- and the repair is not a lengthy process.  This might be something you can do yourself if you are skilled, disparate, in a tiny spot on the planet somewhere (without a repair shop), or like these things...
    We can check for part numbers and all of that if you are interested.  You can search for for yourself, too.
    Start at
    Support and Drivers
    Enter your information -- Look along the colum and Click on Manuals.  You are looking for the Maintenance Manual.
    If you do not find it, provide your Exact Product number and I will look for you.
    Locate the Notebook Product Number
    I am pretty sure you are going to have to have some sort of keyboard control over that system to do more than just use the hard drive to do a hard recovery of the data.  You are not at that point until you determine that you cannot access the data through the computer itseslf...
    You can always send the system to HP and have it repaired.  It is not free unless you have the warranty for it - but it is not horrible to do;  HP makes the process pretty easy.  It might be worth checking if you do not have a local option available!

  • After last update the split keyboard option is not working and side switch button option works opposite for mute and rotation lock

    After last update the split keyboard option is not working and side switch button option works opposite for mute and rotation lock.

    Hi
    A long story about your issue... I think the reason of this is why you have deleted some registry keys. If you delete something in the Windows registry you should really know what you do. You can damage the complete Windows system!
    So I think this is the reason why the keyboard doesnt anymore.
    In the user manual I have founded that the CD-ROM booting option is only available with optional optical disk drive.
    So for me it sounds like that your USB CD drive is not compatible to the notebook

  • Ultraslim wireless keyboard and mouse not working

    Hi ,  I purchased the Lenovo Ultraslim Wireless Keyboard & Mouse (pn: 57Y4700) about 4 months ago for use with my T60 laptop (which i use with a docking station and large lenovo monitor at work).
    Everything was woking fine until last Monday when I can into work after the weekend and neither the mouse or keyboard worked. I replaced the batteries in both, rebooted the machine several time, switch the USB ports for the nano receiver, but nothing seems to have worked.
    I looked online for troubleshooting options, but did not find anything.
    The mouse and keyboard don't seem to have a "sych" button - if I recall correctly everything worked right out of the box.
    My theory is that the nano reciever was damaged (not sure how) -- but don't know how to proceed:
    can the nano reciever be replaced;
    any other options to troubleshoot;
    any chance that this could be a software problem
    Thanks

  • USB devices and Webcam not working or installing on Pavilion Laptop

    Hi there,
    I have a HP Pavilion Dm3 1030 sa,
    For a while now certain USB devices have just not worked on the laptop, specifically printers and mice, despite me reinstalling the drivers for those devices on the laptop. I tried the devices on other computers and they worked fine.
    This was annoying but I put up with it.
    Now the webcam and microphone have stopped working and are no longer recognised by the computer. I have reinstalled the webcam software but cannot find the drivers for it. The software (arc soft webcam) says the inbuilt webcam is not connected.
    I have been able to get my iphone to connect via usb and usb drives work most of the time. I don't really know what is going on. When I look at devices that don't work in device manager It says that there is a USB I/O error. I have tried reinstalling the drivers using device manager but that didn't work either. Any advice would be appreciated. Not being able to use a mouse is annoying as track pads are slow.

  • In my macbook pro hdmi, usb & SD card reader not working

    In my macbook pro hdmi, usb & sc card reader not working.
    i have tried the SRM reset done, till not working started.
    Could you please resolve this problem,

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Simply take it to an Apple Store or reseller if it's in warranty. Your Mac will be repaired or replaced for free because it looks a hardware problem rather than a software issue.
    If it's not in warranty, hold Command and R keys while your MacBook is starting up, and reinstall OS X. If it doesn't work, you can't do much more to solve the problem

  • Usb composite device is an older usb device and might not work in USB 3

    I recently bought one Lenovo Yoga 2 11 laptop running Windows 8.1 (64 bit).
    When I try to connect my old Brother MFC-3240C printer using USB (2.0), it doesn’t work.
    Below are the steps performed:
    Connected the printer to USB 2.0 port on laptop (on the right side). Automatically installed the printer driver (no exclamation mark beside printer icon)
    When the printer didn’t print, I tried to use troubleshoot as below:
    Control Panel->Hardware and Sound->Devices and Printers->Right Click on Printer Icon->Troubleshoot.
    It came up with USB composite device is an older usb device and might not work in USB 3.0
    Removed the printer and re-installed the driver. It is all the same.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.
    FYI – the same printer works fine with my older laptops running Windows 7.

    Already checked Brothers website for the printer drivre for Windows 8.1 (64 bit).
    It says ... The built-in driver is already included with Windows® Operating System or is available through Windows® update.
    So, installed the default driver for the printer that is available with Windows 8.1.
    Even connected the printer with USB 3.0 port on the laptop, but it is all the same.
