T60 keyboard beep (resolved) and keyboard not working

Hi all

Yeah, I came over the infamous keyboard beep problem today; what happens when you press a certain combination of three keys: y+u+i, y+u+o, up+left+space etc.

Well, I resolved the problem by going into the hardware manager and stopping the beep-thingy. Does anyone know any other ways to fix it?

So I've removed the beep. But my keyboard still isn't working: I still can't get any results from pressing the three keys at the same time. This is especially annoying with the up+left+space combination. And, of course, it's annoying that I bought a laptop with a keyboard that obviously isn't working =P

plz 2 halp, kthx

 

Its a limit of how many keys the keyboard will recognize being pressed at the same time. The beep was a fault being sent over. Few laptops can handle high multiple number of key presses.

 

Butbutbut ... Why can I press other multiple key combinations?! This keyboard is totally useless now (totally not exaggerating ...) Still, two key max is a bit daft. So I guess this is like a hardware-thing, and there's no way I'll be able to fix it?

 

It depends on the combination, as some can go 3-4 key presses. What exactly requires so many key presses?

 

Some very, very important programs? Nah, it was only a serious problem when I was running a game - trying to kill time while traveling. But still, I find it mildly annoying... =D
