    I've had one of these laptops for 2 years now and it was perfectly fine until a week ago the keyboard stopped working.
    When I try to hit a key it does not work and if i keep pressing keys all i get is a beep from the internal speaker.
    Any posible solutions?

    Plug in external keyboard, does that work? If it doesn't, unplug internal keyboard.

    If computer works normally after those, simply buy new keyboard.
