Laptop Error when Booting Up

telecomops101

Any suggestions on what to do with the following:

I have an HP omnibook Laptop that always beeps at me when booting up and gives me an error: 0210:stuck key 3d.

I can hit F1 and boot normally, but at some point while using the laptop the search dialog box will continue to pop up. It seems no matter waht key I hit the search box continues to pop up. It is so anyoing.

Any suggestions on what to look for. Thanks

Clearly the problem is that you do not have an Optimus Maximus keyboard. No worries, you can pick up one of these keyboards for $1,500.

Have you googled the error?

Have you checked HP's site for that problem?

Those will be two of the first places to research and see if others have had a similar problem and how they resolved it.

After that, consider any recent changes to your system, possibility of loose connection, etc...

I thought the Optimus Keyboard was just a vaporware rumor, but apparently it's nearing product launch--and yes, for only $1500US: http://community.livejournal.com/optimus_project/

Sound like the Windows key on the keyboard may be stuck. Try to unstick it first, if that doesn't work you will probably have to replace the keyboard like the others have said.

Yea, they've been taking preorders on the Optimus forever, but it keeps getting pushed back.

They actually did get the mini 3-button version out the door: http://www.thinkgeek.com/computing/input/88ee/

It looks like the full version will actually see the light of day. I'll pick one up once they drop to 10% of the MSRP.
