hello everyone! sorry to bother but i have this problem with my acer aspire r11. you see, 4 days ago before making this question, my keyboard and mouse pad all of a sudden did not respond; then came today. i found out today that the keyboard and mouse pad works only when i put it on display mode. when i flip the screen to desktop, it shows the symbol of the tent mode and the keyboard and mouse pad are non-responsive. when i flip it to display mode, it shows the symbol for notebook mode and the keyboard and mouse pad works fine. the pad mode is has no problem whatsoever. i really need help because it's very difficult to type. please

    Try a system restore to previous date and check the issue.

    Sharanji do you by any chance have procedures or links on how to perform a system restore?

    Select the Start  button, type control panel and then choose it from the list of results.
    Search Control Panel for Recovery.
    Select Recovery > Open System Restore > Next.
    Choose the restore point related to the problematic app, driver, or update, and then select Next > Finish.

    the system restore for some reason keeps failing. meanwhile, today my mouse pad started functioning in desktop mode tho it still shows the symbol for tent mode. it happened after i left it on for awhile wherein it slept after a few minutes. after the mouse pad functioned, the wireless mouse became non-responsive but a little later, both worked normal. keyboard is still dead. the weird part is that when i flipped to display mode, all worked normal because it showed the notebook symbol, but when i returned to the supposed desktop mode, it showed tent mode and mouse pad is non-responsive again. i am clueless on what i should do and what is exactly happening to my laptop.

    So just now, the screen of my laptop suddenly rotated upside down while on desktop mode, which might be because the laptop recognizes the notebook mode as tent mode. i really need help. i really don't know what happened to my laptop.
