    Hi,

    If this was posted and answered before, my apologies.

    I have a problem with my HP notebook keyboard. Out of no where, characters would start scrolling by itself. For instance, if a bring up notepad, the letter 'a' will start scrolling non-stop. And this is random, not specific to one key. Sometimes it evens types out an entire DATE format. Since it's random, it leads me to think this is not a hardware-related problem.

    And some of the keys randomly malfunction, but after awhile it's back to normal.

    I even plugged in an external keyboard. The problem still occurs.

    Appreciate if anyone can help
