    For some reason, my plus/equal sign on my DV5 is stuck in like the shift position. I can't type out the equal sign. Every time I try it comes out as the plus sign. It doesn't happen with any other keys. Anyone have any ideas how to fix this?

    Looks like its just on the one place that its not working, but seems to be working fine everywhere else as you can see: == ++.

    What happens when you press the Shift button? Does it show the = sign?
