My Acer Aspire notebook is testing my patience, and possibly its warranty card, again. The peripherals attached to it are not working properly. One didn\u2019t even work at all.<\/p>\n
I was given a long data entry task by my boss that involves numbers. As we all know, notebook keyboards do not have the number pad that their desktop counterparts usually have. As a solution, I bought a larger keyboard that can be used or attached to any computer via USB.<\/p>\n
My head nearly reached its boiling point when the component refused to function after I connected it to my laptop. Initially, I thought that the keyboard was just playing hard-to-get. I tried disconnecting and reconnecting the USB plug from the port. That didn\u2019t solve it. It only worked when I restarted the computer without removing the extra component.<\/p>\n
This is frustrating. Peripherals should work right away once it is plugged to the computer. My laptop doesn\u2019t seem to agree with me on this, though. If I want a peripheral to work on my notebook, I have to plug it first then restart my unit in order for the former to be recognized. What a waste of time.<\/p>\n
A friend of mine told me that my problem might be driver-related after he learned that I didn\u2019t install any. I told him that I didn\u2019t bother to look for the appropriate driver because the add-ons to my desktop got recognized instantly, and that my mouse is working perfectly fine without a driver. Maybe she\u2019s right, though. My USB keyboard hasn\u2019t been playing hide and seek after I installed its driver. I guess computers can’t see or feel without the aid of device drivers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
