Lenovo Yoga Tab 2 Pro - On Screen Keyboard Covering Typing Area
Aug 27, 2015
I'm having an issue when I'm in certain apps (Facebook being one) that when I click on a typing area the on-screen keyboard is actually covering that typing area and I don't get to see what I'm typing.

I have a new Lenovo ThinkPad Yoga 14 with the NVIDIA 940M discrete graphics option, and after a clean install of Windows 10, maximising pretty much any application results in a blank (and faintly flickering) screen.
I got my unit about a week before Windows 10 was released, and intentionally didn't use it much for that first week. Then, shortly after release, I downloaded Win10 as an ISO using Microsoft's own tools, wrote this to a DVD, then booted the laptop using an external USB drive, carrying out a completely clean install (and blowing away the 8.1 restore partition, which in hindsight might have been a mistake). I allowed Win10 to install all drivers, then went to the Lenovo site for anything missing. End result is that pretty much any application (excluding the Edge browser) blanks the screen when maximised.
After that, I went back to 8.1 - again with a clean install due to no longer having a restore partition, and documented the steps taken this time:
Installed 8.1 from downloaded ISO written to DVD, via USB DVD drive
Ensured unit was offline
Installed latest Intel HD Graphics 5500 drivers 6.16.00.3174
Tested maximising applications, no issues
For each of the last three releases of the NVIDIA drivers (in case there was a problem with a particular release), being 352.30, 353.30, and 353.62:
> Installed the driver
[Code] ....
End result is a fully working 8.1 install - no problem with maximising applications.
I then disconnected from the network and did an in-place upgrade to Windows 10, again documenting the steps taken:
Immediately after installation, there were no Intel drivers and no NVIDIA drivers installed
Display was using Microsoft Basic Display Adapter only
Maximising an app instantly blanked the screen - interesting given the lack of vendor-specific display drivers installed at this point...
Connected laptop to network again and allowed Win10 to install all updates (including drivers)
On restarting, drivers were automatically present for Intel HD Graphics 5500 and NVIDIA 940M
Testing maximising an application again blanked the screen
As a test, the 940M was disabled via device manager and all GeForce drivers uninstalled
Testing maximising an application again blanked the screen
I've tried a further Windows 10 clean install since the above, but with the same result - doesn't seem to matter regarding the installation order of drivers, etc, or if I manually download these vs letting Win10 or Lenovo's system update application install them...
Plugging in an external display via HDMI shows no such issues, e.g. maximising applications is fine. If the display is mirrored, the internal screen still flickers with maximised applications.
On talking to Lenovo support yesterday, the response was that this "is a Windows 10 problem" and that I "should contact Microsoft" for a resolution...
I know I can go back to a clean Win8.1 install, but would much rather be on Win10.

Picked up a Lenovo Yoga 700 the other day. Everything's been going ok. Got some windows updates last night. Today, nothing will download from the windows marketplace. Don't know if they're related. So far I've tried relogging into my windows account, disabling all security software, changing the boot mode, restarting windows update. All things I've found by searching for this issue. None of it has worked.

Windows 10
Start - Settings - Ease of Access - Keyboard
Everything here is off. If i turn on the On-Screen Keyboard no keys are Highlighted (indicating they are depressed/stuck). When I use the hard keyboard and sometimes even the onscreen keyboard its as if either Ctrl, Alt Win or something are pressed down as it just types shortcuts.
E.G.:
-H- typed into chrome browser address bar via onscreen keyboard types as normal
-H- typed into chrome browser address bar via hard keyboard brings up -Chrome://history- But now also on the onscreen keyboard Ctrl is Highlighted.
I click on the onscreen keyboard to deactivate the now highlighted Ctrl button and try again. Now things are different, as now both the onscreen keyboard and the hard keyboard both bring up –Chrome://history- when -H- is typed ( Shift is not depressed )
This seems to randomly cycle one min onscreen keyboard works fine, next the keyboard works fine or they either work or none of the work rendering the computer useless.
In -Device Manger – Keyboards- The keyboard driver is dated 2006 so tried to update the driver but says I have the best driver software for my device is already installed. Noticed there are 2 entries for the HID Keyboard Device both are the same driver version. Maybe I should delete/uninstall one? Both (under event tab) , dated 310715 Device migrated, Device configured(keyboard.inf) and Device started (kbdhid). It was prob around this date I first started having probs.
Pressing Ctrl on hard keyboard highlights Ctrl on onscreen keyboard only whilst being pressed. Let go of the hard key, the soft key turns off.
Sometimes the 9 gets stuck and does 99999999999999999999999999999 but saying that I just restarted the machine and pressed the key -d- and it acted like a stuck 9 as in 999999999999999999999 not dddddddddddddddddddddddddddd.
I've NOT tried the following:
System restore (seems harsh)
Rolling back the keyboard driver (not sure how on win 10 )
Deleting the keyboard from System (not sure how on win 10 )

Upgrade from Window 8 to Window 10. My HP laptop notebook seems like it has been process by evil spirits. The touch pad got stuck so often and the keyboard began typing by itself with endless number 9. Sometime, it refused to do the work. How to get rid of these demons from my computer. I am unable to buy a new one after the warranty ran out after 1 year.

After upgrading from Windows 7 to Windows 10… The 1st time it got me to the welcome screen with my name and asked for my password. Typing in password made it unresponsive, all I could do was move the Mouse around. Searching the Internet for a solution on another computer, I unplugged my Wi-Fi adapter and rebooted. I was able to log into Windows 10 and everything seemed okay.
I plugged the Wi-Fi adapter back in and rebooted, it got to a screen with the date and a picture of a beach. From there I couldn't do anything. The only thing on the screen was the Internet icon in the lower right-hand side of the screen. There was nothing to click, I tried clicking all over the screen, nothing. I unplugged the Wi-Fi adapter and rebooted. It got to the same screen, only difference was it indicated no Internet connection available. Nothing to click on, clicking on blank space, the date, the Internet icon, All did nothing.

When auto-hide the taskbar is enabled, the tooltip (e.g., "No new notifications") for the notifications icon covers the icon. This results in having to click twice to open the Action Center.

My Lenovo desktop locked up and I rebooted. First it went in to an endless reboot and after several tries I got the Lenovo start screen and then a blank BLUE SCREEN. The mouse and keyboard work. I updated to 10/10.1 over the net, no disk.

When I open the on screen keyboard on my Asus VivoTab 8 with my stylus it opens the "writing box" rather than the actual keyboard. Obviously this writing box isn't very useful because it's inaccurate and you can't really write more than one word at a time. My question is, how do I make the keyboard pop up by default? It's extremely annoying always having to switch to the keyboard manually.
edit And is there any way to make the keyboard semi-transparent so it doesn't block half the screen? To me this seems like an obvious feature that any on screen keyboard should have.

On the surface pro 3 running Windows 10, the handwriting input panel appears by default when running as a tablet. I would rather use the onscreen keyboard as the default option. Yet when I change to the keyboard, the next time I click in a text box, the handwriting panel appears again!

The on screen keyboard on the Surface pro is tiny in the new Windows 10 builds! It is probably 1/4 of the size that it was in Windows 8.1. Is there any way to enlarge it?

Just upgraded (via Windows Update) from Win 7 Pro to Windows 10.Upgrade generally went smoothly, but....My PC now shuts down very slowly and oddly. The screen and keyboard turn off normally, in a few seconds, but the system box (fans, etc.) remain on for about 2-3 minutes longer. What the system is doing while this is going on!

I can capitalize every letter/symbol except for letters "t" and "m." In order for me to capitalize them, I have to use the caps lock function.
I can't even use the on-screen keyboard to capitalize said letters, it simply doesn't go through.
This might or might not be a hardware issue as I've used two different mostly new keyboards and the function works fine on a different PC.

On W8.1, it'd appear on just about every blank box I'd touch with my finger. Now it almost never appears, for anything. Is this supposed to happen, or is it a bug?

Here is the problem I have experienced for the on-screen keyboard (with or without tablet mode),
- When the on-screen keyboard comes up, the windows will not automatically resize to make way. The Keyboard will end up covering the window. (In Windows 8.1, all windows will resize.) (In Windows 10, only Store App and Microsoft Edge knows how to resize.)
