If the problem occurs when both the keypad overlays are off,
make sure the software you are using is not remapping the
keyboard. Refer to the software’s documentation and check
that the program does not assign different meanings to any of
the keys.
You have connected an external keyboard and the
operating system displays one or more keyboard error
messages.
If you have a second keyboard, try it. If it works, the first
keyboard may be defective or incompatible with your
computer.
Display problems
These are some typical problems and recommended
solutions:
The display is blank.
Display Auto Off may have gone into effect. Press any key to
activate the screen.
You may have activated the instant password feature by
pressing
Fn and F1 simultaneously. If you have registered a
password, press the
Enter key, type the password and press Enter.
If no password is registered, press
Enter. The screen reactivates
and allows you to continue working.
If you are using the built-in screen, make sure the display
priority is not set for an external monitor. To do this, hold the
Fn key and press F5 twice. A window with display choices
pops up. Hold the
Fn key and press F5 twice again to advance
through the display options.
If you are using an external monitor:
❖ Check that the monitor is turned on.
❖ Check that the monitor’s power cable is firmly plugged
into a live electrical outlet.
