Default Laptop Keyboard misbehaving


My Intel Celeron laptop (Zenith), purchased 5 years ago is facing the following problem:
When typing from the laptop keyboard, after some time letters spontaneously appear. For example, if i press “A”, i get on the screen “AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA”. The OS of the laptop is Win XP. I found that the same problem occurs even after booting from a Live Puppy Linux CD. This means it is a hardware problem. I have even tried using a separate USB or PS2 keyboard connected externally. But the same problem occurs. Please advice. Thank you!

Default Re: Laptop Keyboard misbehaving

As you yourself have confirmed, its a h/w issue. Time to take it for service dude

If you are willing to use an external keyboard or virtual one (All Programs -> Accessories -> Accessibility -> On Screen Keyboard), then you may want to disable the internal one. But I am afraid there's no easy way for it. Refer the below discussion if you are willing to do that.
