Chapter 8: Troubleshooting

If you try the keyboard on another PS/2 or USB compatible computer and the keyboard works, you might have a port conflict. Call the Technical Support number listed on the WinBook notebook “Read Me First” brochure for assistance.

If you are using a USB keyboard and it is not functioning, check to see if the keyboard manufacturer provides a driver for the keyboard.

If you are using a USB keyboard and it is not functioning, check the BIOS Setup program to make sure that the USB keyboard support is controlled by Windows rather than by the system BIOS. See Chapter 7 for more information.

If you using a USB keyboard, try disconnecting and reconnecting it to refresh the USB connection.

PROBLEM: The characters on the screen repeat while I type.

ACTIONS:

You may be holding the keys down for too long while you type. You can configure the keyboard to wait longer before the auto-repeat feature starts. To adjust this feature, click on the Keyboard icon in the Control Panel (Start/Settings/Control Panel) in Windows. A dialogue box appears with adjustable settings for the keyboard.

Check to be certain the keyboard is clean. Dirt under the keys could cause them to stick.
