Alternatively, if anyone can help me to convert and upload afterward, I can forward the link to the files. Four pdf files of appr 700 pages each.

Evening all... Please recently my laptop is misbehaving, starting with the keyboard, sometimes it doesn't give what I press for instance when I press d brightness key something else comes up, the WiFi key t,he letters too don't even bring out nothing even the right and left clicks at d cursor, then later it's becomes normal. It's not a keyboard problem, what's the likely cause of this please... Virus? *modified* when the madness is on it sometimes displays this when I click on some icon.

Hi. Possible causes of those symptoms might be loose components in the laptop. E.g. RAM modules, WiFi module, Hard drive, e.t.c
I suggest you shutdown properly, disconnect the battery and charger, shake and turn the laptop around in your hands for a bit. While doing this, listen carefully to hear if there are any loose components to point you in the right direction.
Also, if you are handy with tools, you can try taking off the back or keyboard to access the insides of the laptop. Loosen, clean / dust as many of the modular components that you can and the refit / tighten them.
Boot up and try moving around again.

Let us know if these few steps sort out The issue.

Cheers.


Thank you so much for your response. I'll try shaking the system as recommended but I'm very poor with technical stuffs just in case I get any clue to the cause of the problem. Thank you once again. I'll give you the result once I make progress and find a lasting solution.

Good morning guys

I have a Dell Inspiron 3541. Bought it last October online. When i boot it, I try to put in my password and the keys dont respond. I have to restart before it does.

Now, even when I restart, it doesn't respond. I try "Shift+S". . Nothing. In fact, I may press Shift and another key, and it may respond. But not S. if I press the CAPS button (cos my password has capital letter in it) it doesn't work. When it does, it refuses to change back. Other times, it just doesn't respond. Sometimes, other keys will work except the "S" key. too many issues, just cos i am starting up my laptop.

Once i successfully log on, I have no other issues, even with the keys. The problem is I do have to shut down or hibernate at a point. Getting it to come up again becomes an issue.

I have not had time to take it to a proper engineer. Kindly assist. I cant phantom what exactly its problem is. I know my keyboard is not faulty. what else could be causing this random madness in my laptop?

Have you tried upgrading from the brand's page ?
If not still working, you can try any drivers pack application.

I've done as suggested. However, the problem still persist. I'm not handy with tools though, someone helped me out. All the components you mentioned earlier seemed to be intact. Any further suggestion?

Thanks for the above, depending on the model number you would restart and
keep pressing f2 for bios leave it there for an hour with the charger plugged into
the mains and time how long it takes for it to shutdown. Do you use in on the bed or
on a flat surface such as desk before it shutdown ? Any error message or beeps before
shutting down ?
