Okay...I've had this weird problem for a couple of months, so I thought I'd ask. Every now and again the keys R,T,F,G,V,B,4 and 5 won't work on the keyboard. If you look at your keyboard you'll see that this is a stripe of keys that are all adjacent. Now...it only happens every now and again, most of the time they work. But...sometimes they won't work at boot and i have to reboot a couple of times...and other times, in the middle of doing something they will stop working. They all appear to work in the bios...so it doesn't sound like a hardware problem. Does anyone have any suggestions??

Thx.
