Windows 8 Pro 64-bit
The system is set to start the screen saver after 10 minutes, and to display the logon screen on resume.
The power settings are:
The system is set to display a screen requesting a PIN rather than a password.
When I went to access the system, I clicked the screen and the prompt for the PIN was displayed as usual. However, when I typed in my PIN using the keypad (Num Lock was on), nothing appeared in the field. I then switched to the password prompt and entered my password. I could see the usual obscuring dots in the field, and there is no doubt that I struck the correct keys, however my password was rejected twice. I rebooted the system and everything was normal.
Anybody have any idea of what's going on? Is it possibly a hardware problem with the keyboard?
