As a computer user, whether it is a laptop or a PC, you will be fully aware that there is nothing more annoying than when your keyboard is locked or blocked. You simply cannot do anything and the rage begins to build inside you. Fortunately, this is generally not a major problem and can usually be easily fixed so there is nothing to get too stressed about. The first thing to bear in mind is the likelihood that the problem does not lie with your actual keyboard, it is pretty much impossible for your keyboard to become blocked unless you have spilt something on top or over your keyboard and it is actually broken and therefore probably cannot be fixed. However, the most likely cause of this problem is the fact that your computer is simply not recognizing your keyboard and thus the problem lies with your computer and not the keyboard. The simplest way to remedy this annoying problem is to completely shut down your entire computer and then disconnect it from the power supply. Once you have done this remove all of the keyboard connectors from your PC and then reconnect them again. Once you restart your computer you should find that the problem has been fixed and you can happily go back to using your keyboard again without any issues. If you are still having problems try heading to My Computer, Control Panel, Keyboard, Hardware Settings and then Troubleshoot to see what the problems are. If this still does not work you may need to have a technician look at your PC.

How Can I Unlock My Keyboard?

I can not type anything on the search engine, so I believe my computer keyboard has been locked and I don't know how to solve this problem. Is there any way to unlock from the keyboard or is there any other way to find the solution for this problem.

This happens to me all the time.  Filter keys is on.  You have to turn it off by going to control panel, ease of access center, set up filter keys.  Uncheck the box that says 'Filter Keys on" then hit OK.

Your keyboard normally does't get locked. Please specify what do you mean by lock. Are the letter keys not working or other keys like F1 and F2. If taking letter keys are locked then mostly iys a chance that your keyboard has gone bad or dead either due to liquid spill or fall from a height. Take it to the service center and take their advice.

Usually computer keyboards are not locked. The problem which you're facing it due to the non-recognition of the keyboard by your computer. You should shut down your computer, switched off the power supply then remove the keyboard connectors and plug them again. Then you should on your computer and your problem will be solved.
If you'd still face problem then go to My Computer>Control Panel>Keyboard>Hardware settings> Troubleshoot. And your problem will be solved.

Your right it couldnt be a virus problem if I cannot even enter bios settings, should have thought of that. No, caps lock does cause its LED to light up (only one lite up is just to say laptop is 'On'). I definitley didnt spill any liquid on the keyboard but I agree with you that it may be a bad connection or something. Here is the strange thing do...about 20 minutes after I posted this thread using my pc (I had left my laptop running awating entry of bios password) I tapped a key and it 'worked'. . My nodule Touchpad also stopped symptoms  working  I logged in ok and saw checked the status of the keyboard, which said it was working properly. I went into the system and application logs (after right clicking my computer -> manage -> system tools ->event viewer) and there was a lot (i mean a lot!) of warnings and blackheads remover . The error and warning sources came mainly from : 'W32Time' 'Service control manager'  'dhcp' 'dnsapi' 'netlogon' (???)    About opening up the laptop, I'll see if a friend can help me on that...but i'll check my warranty won't warn against it! When you say manual, do you think there would be a manual specific to manufacturers (i.e. Do you think I may find one on the web relating to fujitsu siemens laptops pearly papules ...?). The good news is I got my project and college stuff back safely enough :giddy:  I have a similar hardware issue. My brand new Amilo Pro V2040 worked fine (for a couple of weeks) then some keyboard buttons stopped working...After a few Nodule restarts everything worked again.    At first, I also suspected the OS and Drivers (installed by vendor) and re-installed everything. The problem persisted and now on almost all restarts some keys don't work. I have found that the  keyboard  tends to "sort itself out" after all blackhead removal of it from suspend.    My Amilo Pro just turned 4 months old. I plan to take it for repairs, but haven't had an opportunity for last two months (too busy)...after which I'll sell it or give it away.
