Gateway MT6723 Keyboard problem

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 

Alright, I've had this laptop for almosr 4 years now and as of the past few months, it's been fine until it started to act out.  I'll be playing a game or doing homework and all of a sudden, the keys begin to act weird, I'll try to type an 'i' an 'o' a 'p' or almost anything near those 3 keys including the numbers and stuff and instead of an 'i' or an 'o' a '\' comes out.  Sometimes it will type the letter then the \ and other times it will only print the \ or it will print out like 2-7 \ and other tims the . button is hit too.  I take care of my stuff very well and idk what I did to do this to my laptop.  It makes me mad.

 

Alright, I'm not proud to say this, but i play WoW and in order to do that, I need a lot of the keys and when I play, i notice the keys being screwed up.  I asked someone at Office Depot and even he was confused. Any advice is greatly appreciated:)

 

And before some suggest to clean the keys, that's been done, but even the buttons on the top away from the keyboard sometimes work wrong, the volume buttons up and down, not the mute on/off and thats rly annoying when something turns out loud and im trying to turn it down and i cant cause the button instead is acting like the pg up and down keys

I would take the keyboard out and try reseating it first. Any issues with an external keyboard?

cheers ...
