Hi All,
Hopefully someone can suggest a next step. I'm stuck! Thanks.
Symptoms:
The keyboard repeats letters. It repeats about 10 letters on the right hand side of the keyboard, about 5 letters in the middle, and none on the left. It repeats less letters if you very quickly down/up a key.
The repeat happens in the BIOS as well as Windows.
Troubleshooting:
Initially started playing with all sorts of Windows settings of repeat keys, bounce keys, filter keys until I booted to BIOS and found similar behavior. I also booted to the Windows recovery to check out if a driver difference might exist, but found no easy way to verify. (In BIOS, up/down keys repeat)
I attached a Bluetooth keyboard which has no problems in Windows.
Searched the web and Lenovo’s site. It doesn’t appear, although there are some repeating key problems after dumping coffee on keyboards.
Got a replacement keyboard. It does the same thing.
Summary
It appears to be hardware. Since it's likely not the keyboard, that leaves ribbon cable contacts and the motherboard?
