DV5000 second keyboard failure

This is the failure of an HP dv5000 laptop keyboard. I have sent the laptop back to HP to have the keyboard fixed twice. The first time the keyboard was replaced and the second time the OS was reloaded. The issue is has been well documented by various users at the notebookreview forums. http://forums.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=57325&page =75

i have the same dv5000 and have noticed the keys fall off i've upgraded to vista,windows 7,xp,then windows 7. The problem u have was probably an error by whoever installed the keyboard maybe the crosswired something...

my keyboard is pisses me off I will be typing and then say I press the s key the save as screen comes up or if I press the p key the print screen will show up. and its off and on it will work fine then it will stop working. It reminds me of that the ctrl key is stuck but i dont know what the fuck the problem is. Oh well I just beat the shit out of it then it seems to work for a little. But does anyone else have this problem???

look the officla solution to this problem isnt cleaning it or blaming windows it was a simpile bios update that corrected this problem i have had a dv8000t i updated the bios and i never had this problem try it go to hp's website type in your exact model number found on the bottom of the laptop then support after that softward and driver download and they have a bios update in there download and do it youll be good to go
