Greetings!
I ask you to help solve the problem with the keyboard on the laptop.
Serial number: [edit]
Product Number: E2W05EA#ACB

When trying to install Windows 7,8,8.1,10: the keyboard does not work already at the stage of entering the PC name and user name.
Installation went fine only with an external keyboard connected via USB.
There are no other problems, touchpad and other works fine.

 

p.s. prefer solve that problem for Win10.

Please run a Keyboard Test from F2 to confirm the Hardware Functionality

 

- Hold the power button for at least five seconds to turn off the Notebook.
- 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

So after the checks the problem is this: keyboard works only in Linux and BIOS.
After installation with an external keyboard - the built-in still does not work.

Thank you for posting back. 

 

This sounds like an Operating system related issue, by reinstalling windows OS will fix the keyboard issue.

This problem manifests itself during a clean installation of the OS.

Thank you for posting back. 

 

apologize for the inconvenience caused. 

 

As you've mentioned earlier that keyboard hardware is working fine only in Linux and BIOS. Hence this confirms its not a hardware related issue with the keyboard. 

 

However, even after reinstalling the clean Windows OS couldn't fix the keyboard issue. I would request you to reach out to our Support and our Support Engineers should be able to check the available service options in order to diagnose the computer physically.
