Does it happen if you use an external keyboard?

If you can, I do suggest you try so we will have a clue if it is hardware related or not. Thanks

Have you tried removing the original keyboard and use a USB or PS/2 keyboard instead? I suggest you try that and observe if you still get the same symptoms.
