  1. My keys are typing the wrong keys


    I went to get on my school computer EliteBook and found that, somehow over the weekend while it was shut and turned off all weekend, my keys have switched. M is caps lock, 1 is U, 2 is A, 3 is L, etc. It's like this for all the keys except N. I found a similar post, and the help person said to click the windows key and x, but the "HP Software Framework is not installed or not running" I don't know how to fix this, and I can't type commands because the letters are scrambled. Please help

    :)

  4. My keys are typing the wrong keys

    SSD key type?

    Well, that makes it even more confusing, the bottom image showing the drives and listing the protocols they use seems to show the right hand most drive as a M-keyed PCIe x4, which is the same config as my drive, however you can clearly see from my picture the small connector (which should be the 5 pin) only has 3 pins. Also when compared to the image of connector layouts it should be B-keyed.
    The drive I have installed is definitely working at PCIe x4 speeds, CrystalDiskMark confirms that so does copying a large file across (50Gb file) copies at approx. 2Gb's.
    Also HWInfo64 tells me the PCIe version is 3.0, maximum link width is x4, current link width is x4.
    It is very confusing to me as to why HWInfo64 reports the port as "mechanical key B" but all other evidence would suggest it is M-key.
    That's the reason for the question, it seems the information is very contradictory.
