fatlaces Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 Got a slightly annoying problem. the annoying part being my parents as their keyboard has decided it doesnt want to work. The thing is that it works when one user is logged in but wont when the other is. Anyone know how i can solve this issue. Im sure its really simple just have no clue.

Daniel Dumielle Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 In light of sounding like a retard, I need some assistance setting up a bit-torrent program. I'm not sure if there is someone that's willing to help me out, don't know if I should PM one of the tech heads in here, if someone is willing just let me know, please.

fatlaces Posted April 3, 2008 Share Posted April 3, 2008 hmmmm ps2 connection or usb? Its a USB connection. Its weird as like i said it works dependent on which user is logged in. Is there some sort of keyboard lock that can be activated by a user? The keyboard is actually on just wont type. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The keyboard is actually on just wont type. well change the usb port ( sounds like a conflict of some sort) prolly from a printer or other usb device that is configured on 1 profile and not the other which causes it not to work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fatlaces Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 well change the usb port ( sounds like a conflict of some sort) prolly from a printer or other usb device that is configured on 1 profile and not the other which causes it not to work Yeah ive tried different ports and different keyboards. Same deal works with one user not hte other. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shai Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Is it just the keyboard? Try plugging in a flash drive or some other USB device logged in as the other user. Does the mouse work? Do you have a USB to PS2 adapter? Get creative. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seffiks Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 as you said it was USB ( go out and find an updated driver for the keyboard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you have a USB to PS2 adapter? Get creative. Yeah i tried all those things tried front USB port back ports. Its not the keyboard as like i said Ive tried it with my other keyboard and it doesnt work. Its only when im logged in as the secondary user that It works. I log out sign in as the other user and the keyboard dies. Im thinking ill just create a new user and delete the old. What happens to the document files that are connected to this user? To they get deleted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shai Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 I got the new laptop..... Compaq Presario F756NR http://www.bestbuy.com/site/olspage.jsp?skuId=8648118&type=product&id=1195598868093 So, it's got Vista on it. I can deal with that- for now. However, I would like to put XP on it, but I can't seem to find a straight answer as to whether there's XP-compatible drivers available for it. I hear the issues are with the SATA, wifi and Nvidia drivers. Anyone have ideas? Besides all that, it's a nice laptop. I'd recommend it.

Seffiks Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 um you got that at bestbuy??????????????? pretty good nice specs on it little pricey seen similar for 100 less ( im very disappointed in you man...... why would you go to bestbuy for Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screaming hand logo Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 is it best to turn my laptop off or leave it on over night its closed but hibernating... you know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seffiks Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 yer choice, pretty much i choose hibernate do to the fact that its faster to bring back up then a reboot downfall is sometimes the hibernation file get corrupt and if you close it without saving files it sucks just be sure to save files before closing the laptop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KM4RT Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 On my laptop after about the 5-6th consecutive hibernation, it starts taking ages and ages to come out of hibernation. It gets stuck on the black screen with the progress bar at 100% for about 5 minutes. I don't get any issues with file corruption, there's plenty of HD space, 2GB ram, still on XP pro, and i don't really leave any programs running. any suggestions on speeding it up?

shai Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 I paid 600 out the door the day before the sale ended. Yeah, Best Buy sucks one but I looked around and this was the best/most laptop for the money out there on short notice. My Thinkpad went tits up on Tuesday night. However, I need to find the XP compatible drivers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shai Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 thats the same exact laptop i have shai i like it It's the nicest computer I've ever owned. Did you get XP to work on it? So far I've tried two different Linux distros (PCLinuxOS 2007 and Zenwalk 5.0 Live) and haven't had any luck. Still waiting on TinyXP Vista edition.

earmuffs Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 does anyone know the address i type in to see my internet shit... its something like 192.121.1.1 anyone??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HydrogenPeroxide Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 muffs, 192,.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1 are the ones ive had to use depending on the router if i unplug the cable from my router to my laptop and plug it back in, i'll get an error saying that my connection has 'limited or no connectivity'. hitting repair doesn't work. the only way i'll get a good connection again is by making sure its plugged in again and restarting. this also means i can't use my wireless connection because it has to connect after the computer has started up. anyone???
