    Where can I find such a product?

    I've been looking for ages because my keyboard refuses to register a number of keys, including the letters 'e', 'g', and 'h' which makes this terrible to use.

    Yet, when I press the keys or hold them down for a long time, they register. Not for long, though. Is there a fix to this or do I need a replacement?

    Wouldn't this be covered by the warranty?

    I bought a best buy version of this laptop. Either that or I didn't opt in for the warranty, so that's out of the question.
