(Have you tried turning it off and on again?)

Is this Roy or Moss?

Do a full system shutdown and then reboot.

Was there a Hammer or Baseball bat involved?

Are these hard wired or wireless keyboards? You might have a bad wireless adapter.

Mine has a battery and buttons on the back.

There is a way to reset it. Look up your model.

Is the whole system unresponsive? Can you still move the mouse pointer, or drag a window?

If you’re a Trump supporter it’s either the Cruz Campaign or the GOP has somehow hacked your keyboards like they do every Primary Cruz has gained delegates in.

Buy a new keyboard, see if it has a problem.
