My keyboard is scrambled and messed up. keys do wrong functions and some keys don't even work.
yesterday i cleaned the keyboard with a tissue paper with very slight amount of water on it then the keyboard messed up and some keys typed duplicated characters, for example when i press 1 it types 2 and 3.
not my first time cleaning and i even used more hard methods before with no problem.
did many solutions on google and now some keys doesn't work and others types wrong characters even when i use external keyboard.
for example,
on top number bar
1 > !
2 > @
3 > #
on numpad
numlock doesn't work and have to use external keyboard to enable it
8 > up arrow
4 > left arrow
. > delete
9 > doesn't work
5 & . > types .5 when numlock is off
3 > 2
spacebar, main enter key, ctrl, shift, alt, numlock, f11, f3, a , s , d , f ,z,x,c,v,j,k,l > not working on the laptop keyboard but work on the external keyboard
the wrong characters thing happens on the external keyboard too.
to fix the wrong characters i have to keep tapping on shift key on the external keyboard or on screen keyboard
this method doesn't fix the keys that don't work on the laptop
i cleaned every key on the keyboard to make sure there is nothing stuck under any key.
tried on bios and Ubuntu live usb still same problems.
i also noticed that the keys that doesn't work are registering clicks but doesn't show any thing
also after boot i notice on on screen keyboard that shift & numlock are being clicked
any idea what is happening> motherboard problem ?
The laptop's keyboard is messed up.
