XP Pro sp2 on Toshiba Satellite Pro 4320

I can't enter text because at least five keys will not operate normally.
they open windows for various windows services when struck. The start menu
pops up all by itself without striking any key at all.

The keyboard is good. No liquid has gotten into it. I sprayed it out with
canned air regularly.

I Looked at all the FAQ's and Knowledge base and other help boards, but no
answers.
Help!

Hi,

You should refer to the Toshiba laptop user manual for how to configure the
hot keys. You may also try to download and install the latest keyboard
drivers from Toshiba website. If still no go, check for spywares and trojans.
