    try cleaning the touch sensitive keys with a cotton cloth and some window cleaner. And if that don't work uninstalling the Launch manager software and downloading a fresh copy from the Acer support website.

    Have you tried resetting it? Unplug the laptop and take the battery out for 10 seconds.
