#MY LAPTOP KEYBOARD IS NOT WORKING DRIVER#

Open Device manager on your Windows laptop, find the Keyboards option, expand the list, and right-click Standard PS/2 Keyboard, followed by Update. My F5 key does not have the three dots on it as some information I have found says should be on the key. There is a solution to hit F5 or Fn F5 to turn lights back on but it does not work. I recently noticed the lights were not working so I searched for a method to reactivate the lights.

I do not know if that is when the lighting stopped. The first one is to update your keyboard driver. My laptop Keyboard was back lit when I received it.

2.Next, expand the Keyboard and right click on Standard PS/2 Keyboard then select Update Driver Software. I 'upgraded' the laptop we are discussing with this software. 1.Press Windows Key + R then type devmgmt.msc and hit enter to open Device Manager. The only thing I can speculate on is that I upgraded the Windows 10 software because I purchased a USB stick containing Windows 10 repair/installВ /upgrade software for another laptop I own which was at Windows 7 level and needed upgrade. The problem is more frequent when I have restarted the computer, if it has been in use and hibernating for several days, it is less likely to happen, I do not know why. External USB keyboards do work, and the problem does not arise. I do notВ know for certain what transpired to stop the lighting of the keys. It is strange that that part of the keyboard works, but the normal keys do not. I saw somewhere that there might be a BIOS setting that affects the Keyboard lighting but could not find anything related to the keyboard when I looked at the BIOS. I have upgraded the BIOS and installed the HP Collaboration Keyboard software but nothing helps. I realize I cannot find anything verifiable that I should have the keyboard back lighting but please believe me, they were back lit when the PC arrived. I don't have a symbol like that anywhere on my keyboard.
