    Hi guys,

    I have a VPCF11S1E and after a windows update (don't know if its related) this problem started to occur:

    In this printscreen the light should be green, but it isn't. The light turned off the first time. Then i rebotted and it was ok. It started do happen more frequently and now when i reboot, it stays green for some seconds before the windows login screen appears but then it turns off.

    This started to happen 3/4 days ago. After a windows update.

    I'm typing with a USB external keyboard. So the problem is hardware?

    I have read about a possible cable disconnection "Some models have the facility to turn off the trackpad in Vaio Control Centre but as your keyboard has stopped working also, it is likely that a cable has become disconnected and you will need a repair."

    What do you think about this guys?
