    The same keys not working leads me to believe a dirty connection somewhere. A bad driver is not going to make this happen.

    A non-working touchscreen is most likely a driver issue... If it was known to have worked before.

    I bought these used with no software so getting drivers is difficult.

    Toughbook all I did was switch the hdd and the keyboard started working fine..
    beats me

    I doubt it.... Getting the drivers is the easiest of all... Just check the stickies for download sites and how to figure out installation order.
