  1. Dell Laptop arrow keys and numpad not working


    My mom cleaned my laptop and now the numpad and arrow keys are not working. For example when I press up arrow key it inserts 100 at the beginning, pressing 7 writes 79 and presses enter. External keyboard is working fine.

    I have no idea what could this could be. And I can’t take it to service right now.

  2. down arrow key stopped working

    My razor lycosa down arrow key decided to not respond at some point today. The other ones work and so does the numpad arrow if i turn off the numlock. Sounds like its just broken and im screwed, but any suggestions?

  3. Down Arrow Key and Numpad 2 not Working (Windows 10)

    Who knows this problem that I am facing for few months that 2 buttons are not working like down arrow key and numpad 2. Down Arrow Key I used the most in games and it stopped working. My keyboard is new.

    Why is causing this problem? I tried to find out the solution for days and I didn't found anything yet. Other buttons are working fine but only those 2 buttons are not working when I tap to them in game does not respond.

  4. Dell Laptop arrow keys and numpad not working

    Since update numpad doesn't work properly anymore

    Good evening,

    On a HP Pavilion dv7 laptop, since a Windows10 update two days ago (version 1511, OS 10586.104), my numpad has gone nuts.

    For example :

    • key 2 writes 72, locks caps and opens a Bing search for "help with windows 10"
    • key 3 writes *3wc
    • key / writes /4 and triggers a menu for alternative screens
    • etc...
    Here is what I already attempted :

    • uninstall and reinstall keyboard
    • add an alternative language keyboard
    • check "ease of access" options
    • try the numpad in the BIOS : it works fine
    • try the numpad in safe mode, now read this : it worked fine ! I restarted in normal mode and the keyboard worked fine also for a minute or so. Then it went crazy again. Now it doesn't work in safe mode anymore.
    Any suggestion welcome,

    Thank you for your help
