• If you seek to appear to be the highest level of
  professional, you are going to use the keyboard
  even for pointing related activities. This
  ambition shatters when your Dell keyboard is
  locked. While a locked keyboard is an issue that
  can be rectified easily, we need to look into the
  root cause of such problems in case you want to
  prevent the same in future. These causes consists
  of anything from virus infection, slowed system,
  program crash etc. fortunately, dealing with this

  centre brings to you some of the rudimentary and
  precautionary methods that you can follow through

  might work for specialized keyboards as well.

Method 1

• In case you are using a wireless peripheral, you
  can check to see if the device is at full power.

professionals tend to commit while using keyboard

functionality you have to make sure that none of
these locks are up.

Method 3

• A system restart s the holy grail of all fixes.
  If the keyboard is not up to the mark, use the
  mouse to save all the settings, data and other
  information and then restart the system. During
  the system restart, all the driver related
  information is re-instantiated and therefore the
  drivers are reinstalled. After the prompt
  reinstallation of the drivers there is a chance
  that your unresponsive peripheral will start to
  properly.

restart wont be of any help. In that case, in
addition to shutting down the system, you should
unplug Dell computer as well. Now, wait for 2 to
3 minutes and restart the system.

  reinserting the battery can also resolve many
  problems with the systems peripherals.

the time the system is booting, reconnect the
keyboard and let the on-boot driver installation
take place. This fresh install can surely fix the
locked keyboard issue.
