U,I,O,P keys not working

#1 Post by dcai777 » Tue May 26, 2015 8:01 pm

Hey everyone, My precious T43's keyboard isn't really working that well with the 4 keys not working. After a google search, it appears to be an issue with the solder on the mobo, but after reflowing it the issue remains the same. It's a hardware issue, as when I press any other keys in the BIOS it beeps but when I press the 4 keys it doesn't make any sound. Would this be fixed by a new keyboard?

Most likely. And a replacement keyboard is $10 or so nowadays (used) so it's an inexpensive way of finding out where you stand.

Good luck.
