My laptop's keyboard has a problem. Pressing the volume up on the keyboard prints "poiurewq", pressing volume down turns on capslock and prints "{}Y", holding down arrow turns the screen 270 degrees, delete key barely functions (functions only when I press it many times). Help please, been having this problem for about 2 days now, don't know whats wrong.
 
Solution
Try this...

1. Uninstall the keyboard driver.
2. Reboot the computer (without reinstalling the driver).
3. When it restarts, it should reinstall the driver on its own.

If this doesn't work, you may wish to try connecting an external keyboard and see if it works fine. If it does, then it could be the keys themselves that are the issue.

You may also want to try updating the Synaptics Driver if the above doesn't help.
