💻 Lenovo laptop keyboard not working FIX
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 авг 2022
- The keyboard isn't receiving my letter input (as in when I'm trying to type in my password to log in for example), i could still change my lighting settings on the keyboard itself using Fn+spacebar.

IT WORKED THANK YOU SO MUCH !!!
(If people are confused : when you press the power button for one minute, the Lenovo logo will appear only one for 10 seconds then the screen will remain black for the 50 other seconds ; then, when the minute is expired, press once again the button like you would to start your computer normally, and it should work)
I been looking everywhere for this fix. Thank you sm bro 😭❤️
I like that you speak your mind! if it’s crap, then just call it crap! We need more people who do that.
hello were you able to fix the keyboard issue?
Bro THANK YOU! I ordered a used t14s on eBay, when it arrived w, shift, X, and v weren’t working. When I disabled fast startup they started working. You are the RUclips GURU
I tried this and it doesn't work for me. I disabled fast startup and restarted, but my mouse and keyboard still suddenly disconnected after a couple hours, with the touchpad and multimedia keys still unscathed.
I still cannot find the fix for my issue - keyboard goes to sleep only in games. In Windows everything is ok. But in any game, if I don't touch the keyboard for like 5 seconds (during loading for example) then I need to press a button and only next button press will work. When you're playing, it's not a problem as you almost always press something, but leave the keyboard untouched for 5 seconds and the issue appears.
Hibernation is turned off already.
Holding down the power button worked for me. Thanks guy!
Oh my god, thank you so, so, so much!!! Really, THANK YOU. At rebooting, when I tried the keys that stopped working, it wasn’t working properly but one minute later it was perfect! You’re the king 👑
It worked! Many thanks ! i will share this video everywere!
Thought for sure the "hold power button" method would be nonsense..but it worked! Thank you!
I don't post untested nonsense on this channel
I thought my computer was broken, thank you my friend
Thanks for the info, normally i use a wireless keyboard, but noticed this.
Is fixed now.
Thank you for saving my time and helping me greatly!
Thx u saved me i repaired my pc after 5 months and now i got this problem and u saved me, for those dont understand too weel just disconnect all wire like mouse headset and AC and after turn off the pc and hold the button for 1 minute (if u hold and it dosent turn on after the first flash just hold it and wait)
I have a similar issue with a lenovo laptop, which is fixed by rebooting, however my fast startup is off and when my main keyboard gets locked, even the usb ones become unresponsive (one time they were, but next time neither the built in keyboard nor the usb one worked). Any ideas as to why this could be happening? Both times, however, it happened after sleep, so I guess that's something
try reinstalling windows and NOT installing lenovo vantage
Thank you so much, I had this issue and I honestly gave up a bit but I found your video through the onscreen keyboard and copying and pasting letters with my mouse and it saved my computer. You deserve a Subscribe and a Like from me.
Legend!
As a side note; Before watching this video, I figured out that disabling the "System Interface Foundation Service" in the System Configuration > Services, and restarting fixed the keyboard.
But I wasn't sure about the long term consequences, so I started digging and came across this video.
I disabled fast startup as suggested, and enabled "System Interface Foundation Service" back, restarted and it's working as expected.
Thanks very much!
any updates on long term conequences , as disabling fast startup didnt resolve the issue for me for long time probleme comes back , does system interface foundation service works ?
Worked on my Lenovo Legion 5. Saved my laptop a flight out the window, thank you very much
Same computer here and it fixed it.
Thank you, hold power bottom helped. Damn ir only i would finded your video earlier 😂
I have tried every single method I could possibly find and none of them worked, I was very skeptical of the hold power button. I tried it, the laptop didn't power back on like you said it after holding it for roughly 10 seconds. I pressed the power button again and it came on with the keyboard working again.
Power button method solved my problem. Thanks a lot 💪
my keys fix but my windows botton still doesnt work.. lenovo legion. help :(
it's probably locked. fn+win should unlock
Seems it's happening to me as well 🙃Holding power button for about 10 seconds and then turning device on helps, but I wonder if there is any better solution? I updated BIOS version from bhcn42ww to bhcn45ww, run every possible troubleshooting tool, tried to disable that fast startup option but it is not present in my settings - though I changed HiberbootEnabled registry value from 0 to 1 and run powercfg /h off command and finally - I tried to update drivers (they're up to date). Do you know if reinstalling Windows or installing some other OS will do the job :/ ?
only the power trick works - assuming you keyboard itself is operational, i.e. in dos or bios
My keyboard start working, thank you very much!
i cannot believe this genuinely worked, but thank you
Please i bought a new legion laptop 5 pro, and this problem appears i disabled fast startup, but yet the problem persiste the moment i launch valorant, if you have any idea how to fix it . Thanks
valorant has a China-made kernel-level anticheat spyware, which may treat lenovo keyboard driver as a cheat. does the keyboard work fine elsewhere?
you may really want to reconsider your selection of games
@@izzylieMans doesn’t realize the majority of corporations are China owned/backed even if they aren’t open about it 🤡
Can you please help me with my lenovo ideapad gaming 3. The alt keys and delete key is not working. Is there any other way to fix this
replace the keyboard
@Izzy Laif thank you. I went to a repair shop they change the keyboard, luckily its still on warranty
I tried both methods and restarted my Legion 5 couple times and yet I cant type tho I can use the( Fn+Q) I don’t really know what should I do?
flip it on ebay
homie you saved my lenovo legion 5 thank you so much i love you
Oh man! You are a blessing from the heavens!
HELLO! in my case, caps n num are working but the backlit is stopped. been trying the support for two days... any help?
yes, flip it on ebay and never buy lenovo
@@izzylie 😂😂🤝🏻
After many tutorial, it worked, such a redditer!!!
Hi there, I tried doing both the fast boot solution and the power button reboot, but they don’t seem to be working.
Every time I close my lid and reopen it, my keyboard won’t be responsive. Am I perhaps experiencing a different problem than the one being resolved here?
it's a firmware issue from lenovo. i would suggest to repeat the power trick until it works and immediately get rid of the laptop on a marketplace while it still works
Hey my man, I have try your method and for some reason still sometimes the keyboard works and sometimes not. I am pretty sure is the ussue you mention. Do i need to do something else?
yes, flip the laptop while it still works and never buy anything lenovo again
I have the same issue yet it didnt fix it the turn off methode used to work but i ve tried it alot of times rn nothing got any solution ?
yes, throw away and never buy lenovo
dude you deserve the whole brewery.. thank you so much.. you cant imagine how much time i spent fixing this issue
Thank you sooo much it's working🙏🤗
Hi, not working for me i have lenovo y540-15IRH Type 81SX, do you have any other solution ?
Bro same 😢
Disconnect power source until it boots. The machine specifically has a problem in the keyboard decoder. Try Fn+S+V with machine off for a couple of seconds.
I have a levano labtop. Only the numbers work. I cannot get into the labtop because i have to enter a password, and the on screen letters are locked as well. How can i fix it?
connect a usb keyboard. or use on-screen one with a mouse
@@izzylie the on screen letters doesn't work and I do have a USB keyboard connect. Just the other functions and numbers work.
use the external usb keyboard then.
Oh wow, it worked! Thank you! 🎉
Doesn't work for me at all. holding power button gets keyboard working up till windows 11 login screen. The moment I hit enter after password entry, keyboard is dead again. faithfully reproduced multiple times. Would very much love a permanent fix.
have you disabled fast startup in windows power plan/what buttons do?
Тоже недавно пытался найти управление электропитанием в вин 11, и нигде его не обнаружил (то красивое меню с 4 настройками, что предлагает вин 11 не в счет). Похоже теперь их можно найти только вызвав напрямую. Спасибо майкрософт, я пожалуй даунгрейднусь, и посижу на 10ке. Там хоть и в анусe, но эти настройки еще можно найти.
You are a life saver thank you very much
Help meee pleeeeeease, I don’t have fast start up as an option to turn it off, but my fn keys and fn lock key are functioning properly while the rest of the keys are strangely not working
the power button fix is for you
@@izzylie thanks for the suggestion, I will try it and report back
thank you so much worked on my Lenovo laptop
You rock! I’ve been trying to fix this all morning and thought I fried my unit. Holding the power button for a minute saved it lol
sorted me out, thank you so much!
Welp, worked like a charm on my Legion 5. My caps lock, "W", "S", and "X" keys wouldn't work... and this fixed it.
Izzy bro, you the man 🫂
This actually fixed my keyboard, thanks a lot!
I have Lenovo Ideapad 3 laptop and i very like it because of the build quality (maybe im just lucky), but i can agree with the fact that their software sucks.
I have this laptop about a year, and it have two main problems: the first that is it just can't go sleep. If i put it into sleep mode, it turns on again and. The second is that the touchpad have delay (if i use it the cursor moves with a delay).
Surprisingly, i don't have these problems when i boot into Linux, only in Windows. This proves the fact that it's software problem, and no matter why i tried to do (i also tried to update bios several times to the latest version) it not helped. Since i bought the laptop they released a lot of new versions for this laptop drivers and bios, but non of them fixed this problems on Windows.
в вк мне напиши со скринами
@@izzylie вот так, с помощью нехитрых и очевидных манипуляций, Бог ютуба вычислил снежного папуаса, что неумело прикидывался белым человеком.
Bro you’re a legend
What if the keyboard will not work enough to even get into those settings?
what happens if you hold shift for 10 secs or more?
God bless you, you safed me a lot of money. Thank you so much.
I have a Lenovo Ideapad purchased February of 2023. My 3, E, F2 and F3 keys all stopped working a couple days ago. I just tried turning fast restart off and holding the power button for 30 seconds. Last night i tried uninstalling the keyboard and updating drivers. NOTHING HAS WORKED.
Any other suggestions? My next thought is to try opening it up to take out the battery. I've also had some random times the keyboard just doesnt work at all when i close the lid and move locations and open back up. Close and open again and it works fine again. So maybe checking the keyboard connection ribbon?
that's a different story completely, a hardware failure. in most cases, you have to replace entire keyboard. not that expensive to get a complete replacement, however you most probably will have to disassemble the entire laptop to fit the new one
@@izzylie dang it. Hopefully that isn't the issue. I do want to open the case and try to clean the contacts, but that is my last resort along with checking ribbons/wire plugs.
there is no accessible contacts on the buttons themselves, they are under domes (assuming it's a membrane keyboard of course). also be careful when cleaning the ribbon, any alcohol may dissolve the graphite traces and you are done.
@@izzylie i was going to try compressed air. My thinking is that the breather stand I made was cut out of wood with a laser. Perhaps the charred wood dust got sucked in by the fan and somehow got on the contacts? I really have no other ideas why the keyboard would suddenly go out a month out of warranty. Doesn't really make me want to come back to the brand if I can't fix it or have to replace the keyboard.
the keys have an almost hermetically sealed domes, so dust would not enter them. done keyboards survive being washed in water pretty routinely. the traces are probably the cu;pit. the problem is, they are printed with carbon-rich glue, basically pencil dust. not very durable in the first place. the keyboard is matrixed, that's why an entire zone of keys stopped working because they are on the same trace. But you may try just replugging the keyboard ribbon, that may help.
Wow this work, I’ve been trying different results for ages and this worked thank you so much
Man thank u so much….u saved me!
ı have legion y540 and this solution did not fix my keyboard problem could you please help me
if the media keys still work, this does fix the problem. you are just not doing it exactly right
OMG THANK YOU SO MUCH U ARE A LIFESAVER. I ALMOST GOT FIRED FROM MY COMPANY BUT U SAVED ME OMG OMG
Thank you for the video sir. Right now I'm typing from the keyboard of my Legion Y540 that suddenly stopped working about 2 hours ago. I did the simple hold the power button for 1 minute method, however before that I updated my Windows from 10 to 11 because I thought that might help, but it didn't. Once i reverted back to Windows 10, it miraculously resolved the issue and now it's working. Not sure if the Windows update and revert had anything to do with it. Would love to know what's your opinion on this. I'm subscribing in the meantime.
Edit: I restarted the PC after I wrote this comments above, just to check if it reacures, and it did. The keyboard wasn't working again. I followed your instruction further, unchecking the Turn on fast startup button and proceeded to restart the PC again, keyboard still wasn't working. I shut it down completely, came back after 5 minutes. Did the exact same thing again, held the power button down for 1 minute, started the laptop back up again, keyboard still wasn't working. Only after another restart with holding the power button, now it finally works again. I'm scared to restart or turn of the laptop again right now.
without powering off, flip it on ebay and never buy anything lenovo again
haha @@izzylie
So dumb pc & os combination
This didn't work for me. Please help me. I use a lenovo y540 17inch
replace keyboard, or better yet laptop for another brand
on that second solution will my apps and everything else be deleted ?
em, why?
saved me July 2024! thank you!!!
YOU'RE A LEGEND
Thank you for saving my legion 5 from turning into UFO after keyboard went dead mid game....
Actually the God of RUclips 📺

Thank you Superman!
Thank you. This worked for me. I will never buy another Lenovo laptop.
I subscribed. You deserve it for sharing your knowledge. Finally, my keyboard worked because of your help. Thank youu so much! I am already planning to waste money to fix the keyboard. Thank God I found your channel. Again, thank you so much! God bless!
Thank you sir I got my keyboard back
U are a lifesaver❤❤❤

Fun fact: google translation translates that commentary normaly
man you are a saviour, i got worried what you said actually worked, thanks man
Bro i have a Lenovo IdeaPad gaming 3 laptop and it has a problem that it's auto select the apps in home screen and automatically swipe up in lock screen whenever i start the laptop. Can you tell me what's the problem and how to solve it?
probably a stuck key. what happens if you bring up onscreen keyboard, anything pressed there?
also do you use a macro capable mouse?
@@izzylie if i bring onscreen keyboard the same problem showed up. I only use wired mouse
@@izzylie can you please help me?
does the onscreen keyboard show any key as pressed?
what happens if you hold shift key for over 10 sec?
You saved my keyboard. Praise you! 🙏🏼
Didn’t fix my keyboard light
Thanks a lot it worked ❤
Incredible. Funcionó MUCHAS GRACIAS. Pensé que tendría que mandar a cambiar el teclado o retirarse preparar la laptop. Me salvaste tiempo y dinero. Porque todos sabemos que esos técnicos de computadoras son bien estafadores
THANK YOU. I always intuited that my multiple issues were related to BIOS settings because it all started right after an update. HMMMMMMM. I'm just putting two and two together here...
Its slowly gotten worse too with stuttering, screen flickering, keyboard lag, keyboard keys not registering, bluetooth issues. We'll see if this works
stuttering is inherent to GAMING laptops because of overheating and throttling. bluetooth can be fixed by removing and reinserting the wireless board under cover like so ruclips.net/video/lWq36RQ8zxg/видео.html and screen is here: ruclips.net/video/Yuf95ZpMrKc/видео.html
Good Morning Friend, I have the same problem but I think I did the whole process and didnt work, my keyboard still not work. I can use all the fn + but cant write anything ! can you please help me out ??
there may be a kb firmware update in vantage try installing that
how can I do that ?? I dont understand much sorry. All the light keyboard and fn functions are working@@izzylie
open lenovo vantage, search for updates
@@izzyliealready did, its all up to date. I reset my pc to and now it stops to work. Fn + works, but fn + sound keys dont. Very strange, idk what to do
already did, nothing happened. idk what to do@@izzylie
This is one of the first things I change on any computer running windows. I’m having this exact issue despite having fast start up off and I have always had it turned off.
when the keyboard is having issues what happens if you hold shift for over 10sec in windows?
Thanks brother thanks from india 😍
If your Lenovo Legion laptop works badly, get'im in your hands and throw into trashbin.
i shouldve bought a pc..
It's been 4 years and my laptop is working fine
Lenovo have issues with this Windows feature for at least 8 years in many desktops or laptops , suppose the BIOS in all these machines has some "bug" or something and they do not care at all about it
Worked, but after a couple months same problem came back again and I don’t know what to do, i tried everything.
the obvious solution is to flip it and never buy anything from lenovo
HA, this worked... unbelievable. Thank you Izzy - 🍺
ill get you that beer once im of legal age bro cheers for the fix🙏
I unchecked and after restarting the keyboard still does not work.
you need to follow the power button way
@@izzylie You're the man, it worked! Thank you.
Thx dude it worked ;)
Unfortunately , this method not fixing the problem. The opposite - when this recommended feature unchecked - power button trick not working. So in my case i need to check this recommended option and use power button(
Also i found that when keyboard is working - there 2 keyboard devices: HID keyboard and PS/2 keyboard. And when keyboard not working - its only PS/2 option...
this method is to flip the freaking thing on marketplace while it still works, not to keep lenovo
I had this happen to me not too long after purchasing the laptop (Legion 5i) and fixed it by "holding the power button for 1min". Now roughly a year later it happened again but I had forgotten what to do and I stumbled upon this video of yours, thank you, thank you! You actually tackled the root of the problem. Disabling fast startup fixed it for now and hopefully forever.
I gotta disable it on my older laptop too and my friend's (both Lenovo).
To add, I think a better recommendation after disabling fast startup is not to restart but to shut down. I first restarted but it didn't work and I kinda expected it since my custom backlit colors remained, then I shut it down, backlit color briefly went back to factory blue and the keyboard was working again.
Legend thank you so much
а че за прикол на леге 5 про 22 года иногда бывает так что клава в таком странном состоянии что если в течение секунд 20 не нажимать на клаву то если вновь начать нажимать клавиши она не считает пару нажатий а потом будет работать нормально и так до тех пор пока не перестану печатать опять на секунд 20 оч странная хрень, фиксится перезагрузкой но вообще подбешивает
лучше всего его слить нахер пока работает
@@izzylieа все легионы прошки проблемные? Пронести не может? Хочу взять прошку 5 но очень не хочу столкнуться с этими проблемами
why dont i even have the fast startup option in my power settings, everything else looks the same
if anyone has the same issue as me, here is how to do it from reg
Press Win + R to open the Run dialog.
Type regedit and press Enter to open the Registry Editor.
Navigate to the following key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Power
just copy paste the location of the key
In the right pane, double-click on the "HiberbootEnabled"
just ctrl+f and paste this or type hiberboot or hiber
Change the value from 1 to 0. (once u click on it)
and that should do it
if you have hibernation disabled, you do not need to care about fastboot. it does not work at all if hibernation is disabled
well after i dsabled it thru reg it got fixed so it must be connected somehow
@@izzylie
@@phrog6073Mine Is already on 0 and I tried both methods and yet not working😔!
do the power button trick as suggested
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!. My keyboard randomly turned of while I was using it and this fixed it.
Mine still not working, any idea why?😢
you voluntarily invested in lenovo, what do you expect
