Hi,
I have a HP pavilion g6. In the past few days, this problem has occurred twice. The second time it just went away, and I'm not sure how. But, here's the problem:

I don't know how it starts, but I can't type anything in text fields, and certain keys open programs, like commands. So, L logs me off, or E opens My Computer, etc. It just happens randomly, and apparently stops randomly as well. I have tried just restoring my computer, but it doesn't seem to help.

Does anyone have any Ideas on how to prevent this from happening again?


P.S. I'm not THE most tech savvy, but I know enough. I posted on this site, because I saw the same thread but with a desktop. The solved that problem by re-installing the keyboard drivers... But I'm not exactly sure I can do that.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
 
What is your exact model?

Try reinstalling the chipset drivers. If that doesn't work, I'd open it up and check the keyboard ribbon connection. If that is snug, I'd look at getting a new keyboard from eBay.
