- What operating system: Windows XP
- Relevant computer specifications: It's a laptop that's really old - a dell inspiron 4100 that has seen better days and was quite battered before I took possession of it
- Description of your problem: Some of the keys on the in-built keyboard aren't working. The keys are "9", "O", "L" ".", which is interesting because that's a diagonal pattern. If I want to use those keys I have to use the on-screen keyboard which is annoying, as is the option of replacing "o" with "0" and "l" with "1". The keyboard/computer is otherwise fine.
- Anything you did prior to this error occuring: I was on Facebook, but other than that, nothing.
- Relevant screenshots: Here's one of me making this post with the use of the on-screen keyboard:
My question is: should I just get one of those cool keyboards that you roll up, or can I fix this problem? I understand that keyboards tend to wear out quite quickly, regardless of how well they're treated.
