is this a keyboard issue or motherboard?

You replaced the cable on the keybd instead of the whole keybd?

yes because the cable was worn. so i tought might be cable issue. but after i replaced with a new cable. still do not working. keyboard havent been replaced. but i dont know why pointer works if the buttons arent. i dont think this is the keyboard. more like motherboard. thats why asking probably someone had similiar issues

Try using the Keyboard in BIOS (F2 while Dell Splash screen) to see if you get any different results, if the keyboard doesn't work in bios i would say replace the keyboard before replacing the motherboard.
