Hi.
Today I opened my laptop only to find that the keyboard no longer functions. The laptop only works in tablet mode and the keyboard and mouse do not work. I've tried restarting the computer 3 times now and tried adjusting the screen angles to see if it would reconnect to the keyboard, but have had no luck. Is there a way to fix this? Or am I able to send it somewhere to be fixed?
