    I had a similar problem on my Z70VA. First make sure the screws for the KB (on the back) are not loose like Coriolis said. Then check the three latches that secure the KB (on the front). There is a latch to the top left, top middle, and top right. On mine, the latch on the right wasn't snap down which was causing the KB to rattle/flex more than the left/middle side. I snapped it in and now it's fine.

    thanks for the suggestions. i'll have a go later and see how it goes.

    also i'm having a problem with the wireless. the intel wifi card doesn't pick up channel 13. btw channel 13 is part of the approved wifi channels here in the uk. so i think they configured it to the US standard. anyone know a fix for this? (my desktop's wifi can get channel 13)
