Disabling the volume buttons on keyboard?

I have an issue with my laptop. About once a day, or every other day, the touch button on the keyboard controlling the volume seems to get activated, and my volume is thrown all of the way up to maximum. It gets stuck like that for a few hours. When that happens, all of the other buttons on the keyboard get frozen as well. Is there anyway to disable that strip of buttons on the top of the keyboard?

Hmm... I don't think so. This is the area that I'm having troubles with:

Im sorry, mine is in the default position on the bottom, yours was moved on top. I got confused by your statement
I think that if you right click on the speaker icon then options and untick everything it might be effectively disabled
