Is your laptop keyboard misbehaving? If Yes, Read on
Recently my Asus laptop keyboard started typing stuff on its own (Not that I had been tutoring it).
So the only way to use my laptop was to
1. Manually disconnect the keyboard from computer
2. Disable the keyboard in windows
Step 1 involved opening my laptop using screw drivers which was a difficult task for me.
So I disabled my keyboard in windows. Here is how.
Important Note: Before starting make sure that You have a separate USB keyboard connected to your laptop So that you
I opened Device Manager
(Right click My computer icon and select Properties. There is a link on left to open Device Manager.)
Select Keyboard option and right click PS2 keyboard.
Now select update Driver Software.
Select 'Browse my computer for driver software'.
Now select 'Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer'
Now uncheck Show compatible drivers option.
Now select a company other than your Laptop manufacturer and unusual layout (Toshiba keyboard with 109 keyboard did the trick for me.)
Click Next.
Agree to the warning that your keyboard might stop working.
Install the driver and after restarting the laptop. Your misbehaving keyboard is disabled.
