Does anyone have any suggestions on what I can do or anything I can check?
This is truly puzzling. Is it possible for the keyboard to simply quit
working?
Hi Keith,
I doubt this will be very helpful to you but here is what I would do.
Sometimes in the process of doing all this things magically start
working again.
I would first look at all bios options. If there is something related
to keyboards in even an indirect fashion, I might turn it off and
boot, then restart, turn it back on and reboot.
I would boot up into SAFE mode, and see if it works there.
Actually the first thing that I would do is go into the device manager
and see if anything is flagged.
It's amazing how many computer problems I have solved or got more
insights into by "kludging around" with it. (I know, I am making all
you technical experts groan lol).
Journey
P.S. -- one final and very important step:
If none of the above works, I would take a BIG hammer and BANG on the
keyboard until you loosen up all of the keys -- make sure you bang
firmly and evenly over all of them.
