    I have a DV 1170 -- The "]" key does not work if pressed, but, it is seemingly stuck. Randomly when I am typing, it will just pop up and start inserting it as if it was constantly pressed...like this...]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]]

    Any help on this ? I've had the PC for 2 1/2 years and havent had a keyboard issue up until now.

    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hi

    I have a precision M70 laptop with the same issue. The ] key appears to be triggered. Note the the key is physically in the up position but in forms and fields it is acting as if the key is depressed.

    Any advice appreciated,

    John
