Keyboard acting up, tries to shut computer down
Hi, just recently my keyboard has been acting up. last week i discovered the problem. my keyboard started sending me shut down messages, opening the 'search' window, and typed random keys. in some instances it would just abruptly shut down or make my computer go to sleep w/o warning. i suspected it was a virus or malware of some sort. but after a few hours i never encountered these problems again. rest of the week i had no problems, until today
i finally realized it was actually the keyboard that was acting up after i unplugged the usb from the computer. upon unplugging the problem went away. i was unable to find a replacement keyboard in my house and now have to resort to the on-screen keyboard. frustrating and tedious to say the least.
it was working fine this afternoon but during the nighttime it started acting up.
please help. i would go in further detail but this on-screen keyboard is rly tedious! thank you.
