    Hello all. I bought a new pc, and i realized W went stuck if i keep pressing for a while. Example, i press W for 5 seconds, then i unhand W and he keeps writing for a while.
    Any solutions?
    Thanks

    If you have warranty and can miss it for a while then I'd send it back (they'll replace the keyboard).

    Problem seems to be that the rubber dome is too weak, preventing it from 'popping' back. Another possibility is that something sticky got behind the plastic key cap, keeping it stuck to the backplate. You could pry the cap free (carefully!) by wedging a small screwdriver of thin knife underneath. There's four plastic clips keeping it attached to the scissor mechanism, these are quite weak so it is imperative to dislodge the clips with as little force as possible.
