Keyboard and Pointing Device Problems
✎
Many pointing device actions are controlled by mouse
settings in the operating system. To change the pointer or
click speed, add or remove mouse trails, or adjust other
pointing device settings, refer to your operating system
online Help or printed documentation. If you are using an
optional external mouse, refer also to your mouse
documentation.
Notebook keyboard keys stick or do not
respond
Clean the keyboard as instructed in your model-specific documentation.
Instructions for keyboard maintenance are often provided in a
Maintenance, Shipping and Travel guide on the Documentation Library
CD. On some models, keyboard maintenance instructions are included in
another guide, such as a Hardware Guide or Reference Guide.
Assorted keys are typing incorrect characters
Change the keyboard language setting as described in your model-specific
Startup Guide, Reference Guide, or your operating system online Help or
printed documentation.
Letter keys are typing numbers
Disable the notebook keypad as instructed in your model-specific
documentation. Your documentation may list the notebook keypad as
the “embedded numeric keypad” or the “internal keypad.”
