my keyboard behaves odd

#1 Post by blacksun » Sat May 15, 2010 9:10 am

Hi there.
I have an old T40 and in the last time I experienced something odd.
From time to time some keys from keyboard simply don't respond. For examples "6, Ctrl, -", etc. don't respond. If I restart it works again. Does someone have some suggestions?

thanks!

Try reseating the internal keyboard connector. If that doesn't help try a new keyboard.

Follow the maintenance manual for keyboard removal. You'll see the connector.
