My new pavilion laptop has a fault, I'm sure it is easy to fix and may be connected to Windows 10. Basically I can key in my pin and then the keyboard stops working. I can type away but nothing appears onscreen. Solution please
 
Try and find a key with a picture of a keyboard on it (usually one of the function keys, could be F5) and hit that (might need to click that and shift or FN)
