  1. Why do I have to press the space bar to get my program to appear


    If I have 3 or 4 programs open, and I want to switch to another, I have to click the task bar icon, then press the space bar to get it to show up, or minimize the program thats already opened. Annoying, any way to change it?

    :)

  2. Space..Bar

    Hi Regina,

    There are different reasons why your space bar and other keys are not responding.
    For us to properly isolate your concern, we'd like to know the following:

    • When was the last time that your space bar and other keys were working?
    • Have you made any changes on your machine prior to this issue?
    • Have you installed all pending updates on your machine?
    • What is the build and version of your Windows?

    In the meantime, we suggest that you run a
    quick test scan
    first on your computer to check for possible errors.
    You can visit your computer manufacturer’s website to access their
    Diagnostic Tool. The tool will help us determine if the issue has something to do with the hardware or software of
    your computer. If an error is detected, it will automatically fix and recommend other troubleshooting steps to resolve your issue.

    We'll be waiting for your response.

    Dinovo Edge -Space Bar problem Why do I have to press the space bar to get my program to appear :(

    somybeloved dinovo edge is playing up.

    the space bar only works when pressed dead in the center, and removing and reassembling did not seem to fix it.


    any ideas? its scissor switch in three places, one bar (to lift it?) and one rubber dome button in the center.
