So, my laptop keyboard does something weird...?
I HP Pavilion g7 Notebook with Windows 7 home premium. At random times (it usually seems to be if I haven't used the keyboard in a bit of time but not always) something rather odd happens. One minute things will be fine but other times if I go to type something, it won't work. For instance if I hit 'w' the window I am on will close, or if I hit p it will bring up the print menu, things like that. I've made sure that I haven't hit a certain button so I know it's not that.
So my question is what the bloody heck is going on and how can I stop it from happening. If I restart or put my computer to sleep and turn it back on, the problem is fixed. However, I'd like just to not have to deal with doing this.
Thanks for any responses!
