MAKE SURE THAT ALL OF THE CABLE ARE CONNECTED SECURELY THEN TRY TO SEE IF ANY OF THE KIYS ARE STUCK YOU MAY JUST NEED TO CLEAN THE KEY BOAD AND IF THAT DOESNT WORK THEN THE PROBLEM IS WTH THE COMPUTER CONSIDER THE FOLLOWING: THEIR ARE TWO CHIPS THAT CONTROL THE KEYBOARD THEY ARE THE KEYBOARD CHIP AND THE ROM BIOS CHIP YOU MAY NEED TO CHANGE BOTH OF THESE CHIPS OTHER WISE THE ENTIRE BOARD WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED.
