If you're running windows, a bypass you can do is to use a on- screen keyboard.

I had a similar problem as well. It turned out the wiring was fried, I needed to buy a new keyboard (£70 :eek:) Until I got round to that I used a usb keyboard which was a more friendly £7 and was a very good solution for me. Perhaps you can try that until you can figure out the problem.
