    Is anyone else having issues with their keyboard on the G51 A1? It will sometimes not register keystrokes and is getting pretty annoying. I've done ASUS LiveUpdate to check for drivers and it appears all my drivers are up to date. Haven't checked with Asus directly yet though. Is anyone else experiencing these issues? Any solutions?

    Seems like a lot of Asus products are plagued with keystroke issues. While you don't register keystrokes mine gives me double keystrokes. I can tell you right now that its not a hardware issue since I've replaced my keyboard and it did not fix the problem. However, I did stumble on a forum that stated that the eeepc users found that by removing the synaptic mouse pad software, they were able to solve the issue.
