Probably something wrong with your keyboard. The
keyboard may be dead, or your keyboard isnt plugged in
right, check the connection in the back. If you have
access to another pc try the keyboard on their if it
doesnt work it might be time to get a new one. How old
is the keyboard? You can alos clean it out with one of
those computer air blowers that blows dust out.

When I open the Microsoft Works Word Processor, it
won't let me type.... I get the blinking curser.... but
it won't let me type.......
Same goes with being online.... and going into a chat
room..... it won't let me write anything......
Does anyone have a solution??
thanks in advance

Hi Scotty,

Check the Font color. If set to "white" printing will not display as it is
the same as the background color.
