Model/SKU for your Acer laptop? Are you on the latest BIOS update for your laptop's motherboard? What OS are you working on? See if the keyboard works when you use the On Screen Keyboard utility or keyboard tester.

That's not a good a sign as it may mean the keyboard controller has packed in inside the laptop.
