HP Omen 15 (Model 3E768UA#ABA 15-EK0023DX)
Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

I recently purchased a new Omen 15 and certain keys are not registering. It always happens when I'm typing fast. 

 

It is a consistent problem with the same few keys. 

 

For example, if I try to type "motion" normally, I will only get "motio". If I type slowly, the "n" will appear, but if I type at a fast speed it will not register that key. So, I have to slow my typing speed when I type the combinatio of "o-n".

 

This happens with a few other keys as well, but I haven't identified all of the combinatios. (See? "Combinatios" - it is constant.)

 

As a professioal writer this is completely unacceptable and ruis (ok, it appears "i-n" is another example of a sequence which causes keypresses to not be registered) my ability to work. I will be returning this machine if I cannot get an answer.

 

Also, please rest assured that I have not changed my typing style. I am 100% confident that there is a key registration issue. I type for a living - it's not me.

Thank you for posting on HP Support Community.
 

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, I have a few troubleshooting steps we could try to fix the issue:  

  1. In Windows, search for keyboard, and then open Ease of Access keyboard settings or Change how your keyboard works.

  2. Make sure the Filter Keys option is disabled.

    Turning off the Filter Keys

The keys should be more responsive.
 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
