Hello everyone,
I'm using an HP Pavilion PC running Windows 8.1: after turning it on and after a little while, the computer virtually keeps the Alt key active, which messes up all commands including those from the mouse and the on-screen keyboard. The problem sometimes occurs even when I'm not doing anything: while watching a video, for example, or listening to a song, at some point my computer decides to lock the Alt key.
I have turned this problem inside out: antivirus scan, driver check, factory reset; the problem always comes back after a while...
The only solution I found is to search for the on-screen keyboard in the Windows start menu, click (with the mouse) on Fn+F5; but the problem reappears later, the on-screen keyboard itself gets stuck on Alt, I have to close it and repeat the process, etc., etc., etc.
Has anyone ever seen this? Help?
