If Something Goes Wrong
Resolving a hardware conflict
You have connected an external keyboard and Windows 98
Second Edition displays one or more keyboard error
messages.
If you have a second keyboard, try it. If it works, the first keyboard
may be defective or incompatible with your computer.
Nothing happens when you press the keys on the external
keyboard.
You may have plugged an external PS/2 keyboard in while the
computer was turned on. Using the AccuPoint II pointing device,
click Start, then click Shut Down. When the Shut Down
Windows 98 Second Edition dialog box appears, select Restart
and click OK. The computer will restart and recognize the
keyboard.
The keyboard locks and the computer will not restart.
Make sure the power is on and press the reset button.
AccuPoint II problems
Some of the keyboard problems already listed may affect the
AccuPoint II. In addition:
Your finger slides off the AccuPoint II easily.
If the AccuPoint II cap is oily, remove the cap and clean it with a
cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol.
To remove the cap:
1 Firmly grasp the cap and pull it straight up.
