Keyboard problems

HELP!
MAJOR ISSUE #1: My backspace deletes EVERYTHING I write. It erases the
entire line, paragraph word, EVERYTHING!! How do I fix that???


MAJOR ISSUE #2: Also, for some reason when I click on my explorer icon, I
get the properties screen. I have to right click, then select open window.
My left click will not work!!!

MINOR ISSUE # 1: Now, another thing I have issues with is that the
keyboard will sometimes do differnt things, and I do not know where to go to
fix it, or what I pressed to mix everything up.

FMINOR ISSUE #2: My Compaq Presario doesnot always wake up when I open
it. Sometimes it just stays asleep and I have to press all kinds of
buttons!!!

Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Re: Keyboard problems

Think the laptop needs to go back? Its keyboard is broken unless its because
you hold the key to long :-))
