    How to make keyboard not light up (if i press a key) when my PC is off


    when my computer is completely off sometimes I accidently press a keyboard key and then my keyboard starts to light up and there is no way to turn it off unless I unplug my keyboard or turn my PC on and turn it back off. The same thing happens to my mouse.

    How can I not let this happen?

    :)

  2. 6681 Backlight on Keyboard

    I do not have any backlight on the keyboard when I activate any of the keys, making texting or dialling very difficult at night.

    The keyboard only lights up briefly when I plug in to charge, when a call comes in or I half press to OFF switch. It does not light up when I press a key.

    I believe I have tried all the backlight / display options available.

    Any suggestions on how to fix.

    How do I get my key to light up on my keyboard?

    Hi Jesse,

    According to
    HP Product Specification for HP 15-af131dx Notebook
    , it does not have an LED lighting for its keyboards. Therefore, you cannot use the keyboard back light feature. For further information regarding your product, kindly contact
    HP support.

    Should you have more concerns, feel free to post.

    Regards.

    Hey McSweg,
    Check your BIOS > Chipset Configuration and enable Deep Sleep to power down USB devices after shutdown.

    Boot into Setup (Bios) and go to Integrated Peripherals and look for Wake with Keyboard or some such. If it is enabled using your arrow and enter key Disable it.

    According to the user guide for your KB, you can set options for the illumination, including disabled if the display is off. Page 21. https://cdn.cnetcontent.com/c1/f6/c1...2b96d2d001.pdf
