Hello,

 

i have a problem that is that my key ><  is not working at all. Also I can acces the F1 to F12 keyes only when pressing Fn, this means that my HP hotkeyes are allways on.

Let's update the BIOS from this Link: https://support.hp.com/rs-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-Pavilion-Gaming-15-cx0000-Laptop-PC/20284020/mod... and also reinstall the Keyboard drivers

 

- Select the Start  button, type Device Manager, and select it from the list of results.
- Look for Keyboards and expand the List
- Look for Keyboard driver then right-click it, and select Update Driver.
- Select Search automatically for updated driver software.
- If these steps don't work, try reinstalling the driver: Open Device Manager, right-click the Keyboard driver and select Uninstall. Restart your PC and Windows will attempt to reinstall the driver.

 

Let me know if the issue persists

Welcome to HP Support Forums. A really great platform for posting all your questions and finding solutions.

 

I have gone through your Post and I would like to help

 

May I know since when are you facing this issue?

 

I suggest you run a Keyboard Test to confirm the Hardware Functionality

 

- Hold the power button for at least five seconds to turn off the computer.
- Turn on the computer and immediately press Esc repeatedly, about once every second. 
- When the menu appears, press the F2 key.
- On the main menu, click Component Tests and Keyboard

 

Keep me posted how it goes

 

Thank you and have a wonderful weekend 😊
