Fn keys no longer working

blbushmen

i have an acer aspire laptop and the letters associated with the Fn keys only work when i hold down the Fn key.

 

The numlock key is not on

 

Here is how the keyboard is now mapped

 

Numlock on

u=backspace

i=nothing

o=new line

p=*

j=nothing

k=new line

l=bottom of page

m=nothing

 

Numlock off

u=backspace

i=nothing

o=nothing

p=*

j=nothing

k=nothing

l=nothing

I notice the letters are all in a small sction of the keyboard. The rest of the keys are working OK?

Shut the laptop off, hold it upside down and shake it. You may have dirt, crumbs, etc under the keys.

Go to Device Manager/Keyboard.

Do a system restore to a date before it started.Right click on Standard PS/2 keyboard and select uninstall. Go to the top of Device Manager and click Scan for Hardware Changes.

Try reinstalling Launch Manager.

Replace the keybard.
