HI,
I use the Laptop for coding and am annoyed by having to split the Keyboard with a NUMPAD. Is there a way to replace the Keyboard with a standard full-sized Keyboard without a NUMPAD. Annoyed by the orientation of the Keyboard to the Left
Regards
Nikhil

Hi @Nikschumi, Thank you for posting at HP Forum.
Depending on the model of the computer, they either go with Full or Compact keyboard layout.
If the computer came with a particular type of keyboard layout, I believe the part cannot be changed to a different one, as even replacement parts for the computer will be similar to the one the computer was manufactured with.
Hope this helps.
Cheers.

Welcome to the HP Forums 🙂
I would like to take a moment and thank you for using this forum, it is a great place to find answers.
As I understand you need to replace the keyboard,
No worries, as I'll be glad to help you, that said, I'll need a few more details to dissect your concern & provide an accurate solution:
Did you know that the replacement parts from HP will only contain the original factory shipped parts?
In other words, I'm afraid we cannot replace the part as we don't have any customization options,
I hope that answers your query.
If you would like to thank me for my efforts to help you,
