    this happened to be it is because u or someone else spilled something that conducts electricty which acts like a wire and connects for ex: a to z either open the key board up and try to clean or buy a new keyboard

    try the keyboard on another computer to see if still have problem or not. could be keyboard causing problem or chip on motherboard. try another mouse as seen a funky mouse cause problems to a keyboard once on a customer's computer.

    try disabling the pointing device in your bios but will need a mouse for windows to see if pointing device is causing problem to the keyboard
