    Every once in a while (3 months)? My G51s P and Backspace keys stop working, if I don't do anything, it progresses to my number keys and upper row letter keys. However, if I take out the keyboard, rub it with alcohol and then put it back everything is fine.

    Are these symptoms of a more serious problem or is it just my keyboard's cable getting pulled lose over time?

    Never had this happen with another laptop.

    I'm wondering if I should.

    Every time I clean it, it works fine for a couple of months, so I decide not to order a new one.
