Spend 10.00$ and get a new keyboard.

Do you have a USB keyboard? Unplug it and plug back in. If it came with drivers, reinstall them.

[Brilliant]

Get a new keyboard. $10 at Office Depot.

When in doubt, turn off the computer and start over. If that does not work buy a new key board.

[JennysCool]

The answer to all problems: reboot.

Since it’s a laptop, you’ll probably need to order a new keyboard from the manufacturer. But you can make due temporarily by using a plug in keyboard.

I’d be p=issed.

I’ve seen this kind of behavior enough times to assume that your laptop is infected. Try Trend Micro House Call.

Turn off your computer and make sure it powers down.
Throw it in a 43 foot hole in the ground.
Bury it completely, rocks and boulders should be fine.
Then burn all the clothes you may have worn anytime you were online.

Seriously, though, just power it down and remove and reseat your keyboard connector which is under your keyboard. On most laptops, there's a little strip above the keyboard that has to be pried out gently with a small flat screwdriver and then there are several small phillips head screws that hold the keyboard in place.

Now you know what my life is like. :)

Which part of “keyboard on my Vaio laptop” was unclear to you guys? Does no one read before replying any more?

Angela: get one of those cans of compressed air and see if there’s some crud jamming the keys. It’s unlikely to fix everything, but it’s cheap and might work. Otherwise, it sounds like a hardware problem, and it’s got to go to the shop. Hopefully, the keyboard will be relatively cheap and easy to swap (or better still, it’ll be covered under warranty).

Angela, before anything else, seriously, do this:

1. Power it down.
2. Unplug the power cord
3. Find and remove the battery.
4. Give it a minute
5. Replace the battery, and power back up

Trust me. I do this for a living.

Buy a new keyboard for that model on-line and do it yourself or take it to a repair shop and have them do it for you. Once they go bad, you can’t fix them.

[MrB]

I think the best solution would be to make everyone else adap=t to your “least common denominator” -

then we could all be more “tolerant”.

[oblomov]

This is hugh.

[Mr. Jazzy]

Possible that the keyboard will need to be replaced. Cost would be about $100 bucks for the part and $80 for the labor.

Possible that you lean a little heavy on the area of the laptop where your palms rest. May need to be inspected for possible damage to the boards below and the connections.

Seriously, have a pro look it over first before you spring for the parts.
