Windows 10: Mouse locks up and keyboard randomly starts typing letters.

I've been having this issue where I'd type in a letter on the keyboard and it'd start typing randomly and with that the mouse pad doesn't work. I do not believe this is an issue with the hardware, it was working just fine and Windows doesn't detect any issues at all with the hardware. I've tried just about every common fix there could be.

Things I've already done:

Updated driver's Uninstalled and reinstalled drivers Unistalled quality update Restarted PC multiple times (Problem occurs almost immediately on the login screen)

Just issue started a few days ago and it has went about a day or two without issue but now the problem is back and I haven't been able to find any solution. If there is more information you need to know, please let me.

Keyboard typing numbers instead of letters

Hi flemmingknudsen,

I’m Rey, your Independent Advisor.

I understand you are having trouble with your keyboard which types numbers instead of letters. Let me help you with this.

I understand that you have tried the num lock key and it's the same outcome.

Have you tried to press Fn key + Num lock? If not, try it and see if it will fix the concern.

If still it will not fix the issue, follow this steps:

1.Press Windows Key + R then type osk and hit Enter to open On-Screen Keyboard.

2.Turn off Num Lock by clicking on it (If it is ON it will be shown in different color).

3.If you can’t see the Num lock then click on Options.

4.Checkmark “Turn on numeric key pad” and click OK.

5.This will enable the NumLock option and you could easily turn it off.

6.Reboot your PC to save changes.

Lastly, sometimes 3rd party software can conflict with Hardware such as Keyboard and can cause this issue. In order to Fix Keyboard Typing Numbers Instead of Letters issue, you need to perform a clean boot on your PC .

1. Press windows key + R, then type msconfig.

2. Select In General tab, select Selective Start up, put a check mark on load system services and unchecked "Load start up items".

Let me know if you still have issues after these steps and let's work on this together.

I believe that these steps will help you solve this issue you have. If not, kindly contact me and let me know.

 

Keyboard home line typing numbers as well as letters.

Hello Skyler,

This instance could have been caused by Num Lock. Try these steps for us to fix this:

• Press the Start key + R.
• Type "osk" in the box and hit Enter.
• On the screen keyboard, try toggling Num Lock, Scroll Lock and
  Caps Lock a few times. Num Lock might be stuck on your keyboard (Num Lock key isn't working).

Please let us know if that resolves your concern.

 

Keyboard typing numbers instead of letters

keyboard types numbers instead of letters in the command window. Also in some other apps. Not in notepad, not in google chrome not in file explorer. Pressing Num Lock doesn't change anything.

Using an Asus UX31e Zenbook with external mouse, keyboard and monitor.

Keyboard layout is Danish which is what I want.

Tried with different keyboard. No change.

Please advise
