  1. Numpad #2 key not working


    Ok so there's probably a million and one reasons as to why my numpad number 2 key does not work, lemme rephrase, the key actually works because I input a 4 digit pin when I sign in BUT it does NOT work while I'm just idly browsing. Its so weird. It also works as a arrow down key as well but using it as a number it does not function and I can't for the life of me figure it out. Anyone got any ideas? (Num lock is off as well)

    I use a Asus RoG gaming laptop. This just recently started happening. All the other numbers work, just #2 does not.

  2. 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

    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.
