Welcome to the Seven Forums.

Scan your computer with this:
What is Windows Defender Offline?

You may have a bad keyboard.

Sounds like the Tab key on the keyboard is stuck.

Agree with Layback Bear - the key is faulty. This has been discussed before as others have had the same problem.

Thanks sir for the advice, i will try to download the windows defender offline first..

Looks like the keyboard it's fine sir, and i'm still use the tab key until now.
The problem is sometimes when i do homework on ms. word( i can't write because always tabbing when i typing), or presentation(ms. power point) my home work on class, sometimes the virus show up T_T, and The times show up this mr. tab is random (unpredictable)...

Thanks Sir . . .^^

I think no sir, because this notebook it's never drop, drop by water, food or something else..

and if i watch this virus show up, usually 10-30 second after first tabbing, the tabbing stop on ti's own, and 10-30 second after stop, back to "shuffling again"...

And if the virus tabbing is out, I usually stop him with typing letter or typing on keyboard(not work with touchpad, because it's not working when the virus come out)

Thanks sir for the attention... ^^

Does the problem happen when you type letters near the tab key? Please open MS Word and test that for me. Press the keys harder that normal to make the keyboard bend.

I don't think that this is caused by a virus because I do not see any websites that describe such a virus.

This morning that virus not show up, my notebook booting normally, until now.

I tested on ms. word the tab is work normally, i press deeper still normaly, i try press letter "Q", "a", "~", "1", and "Capslock" still normal, the "tab key" not follow if i press that letter.

I forgot to tell, if the virus show up, usually the tab key it's locked, i can't use tab key although i press harder that button, and usually the tab virus start on when booting bios(before log on windows), sometimes booting windows normal but in the middle when i browsing or typing the tab come out again..
So randomly and unpredictable...

I think it's different sir, sometimes the tab key its locked when the tabbing come out, sometimes when not come out the tab key it's work normally..

And come out randomly and unpredictable, its very very weird . . .
"Like possessed by tab key"

It could be a virus. Their are some going around that are set to effect different keys.
Did you complete downloading and running Defender off line ashttp://www.sevenforums.com/member.php?u=202665 UsernameIssue suggested in post #2?

I'm still downloading sir , last night because the size 200mb+, i usually leave it behind and then sleep (so i forgot to set up my notebook "never sleep mode" T_T)

Thanks sir

What does T_T) mean? What language is it?

 

[townsbg]

Have you tried an external keyboard?

 

[gregrocker]

What makes you think it's a virus? Has your AV found infection lately?

Replace your AV with Microsoft Security Essentials and run a full scan.

Install and run a full scan with Malwarebytes.

Run SFC -SCANNOW Command.

As suggested, try another keyboard. If that's the problem you can replace yours - google for a replacement and a a video for how keyboard is replaced for your model.

Thank you for testing that and reporting back so well. Now we will wait on the results of Windows Defender Offline.

Sir I've finished scanning with defender off line, and the result is no virus detected...

actually I've tried many antivirus like avast, avg, norton, malwarebytes, adware, spyware remover, etc. All of them cannot detect the virus..
I've tried more than 5 times reinstall windows, and the result is nothing..

Sir how to delete or reinstall "the keyboard device" at device manager, i have the driver, i just download at asus website of my spec notebook(n43sl jaychou)..

Result of windows defender offline still haven't detect the virus, I've already scan with full scan that spend 1 hour more..

May I Replace/Reinstall the keyboard installation sir?
How to do that sir?

Thanks sir

My mouse and keyboard program is in the Control Panel. Just do a Start Orb and type in Add and Remove and go to Add and Remove Programs. What is confusing me is you say it's not the keyboard but haven't tried another one, (USB). You say it's a virus but you have run a mass amount of anti virus and anti malware programs all coming up clean.
