To start, I'd attempt to check if the keyboard functions outside your operating-system. i.e, are you able to press DEL key at computer startup and get into the BIOS menu?

If you cannot, one of the most probable things would be that the keyboard's connection was not seated correctly, and that should be adjusted. I hope eee pc keyboard is O.K.

Not knowing the precise Eee model, I cannot provide you with comprehensive instructions, however This person ( http://jenders.vox.com/library/post/asus… ) had the very same trouble with the Eee 1000HE, and it has in depth explanations for exactly how he resolved it. For those who have another Eee model, the steps may be fairly different.

Additionally, a short-term remedy that may do the job till you are able to get this sorted is to find a USB keyboard and make use of that with the netbook. It's undesirable, yet most likely better than needing to do every thing with a computer mouse! (By the way, Windows xp has an on-screen keyboard, so you're able to use that as well, if you do not type a lot and don't wish to tote around an actual keyboard.)

Unplug the keyboard from your USB port in the rear of the Tower...then plug it back in...sometimes they just come loose for no apparent reason...if that works you should hear a small thumping sound when you plug it back in indicating a good connection...if that works....then your problem is solved....if it works and does it again., then its time for a new keyboard.....
