Hello Everyone!
So yesterday night everything was fine . But today morning when i started my laptop i found that some keys like F1, F3, F5, Zero Both Num and the other, [ , Left Ctrl , Esc, are not working and some keys like Num Enter, Num Zero , Capsloc,k Num . were not working even before that but those were not that much problem.
i dont why but it is strange that all odd key like F1 F3 F5 F7 dont work dont know about F10, F11 and F12 coz it doesn't have any function. F9 works Fine. F8 doesn't work.
What i tried
Rebooting Pc
System Restore which everytime failed. I tried like 3-4 times.
Uninstalling drivers and rebooting

I didn't open keys. I tried but i was afraid of breaking any keys . But i did manage to open [ key and found that the silvery cover below was little torned . I dont feel any kind of debris stuck while pressing any of these keys .
Please HElp

Open notepad to see what happens when you type. Try all the special keys one at a time. It's a laptop so it has some sort of "Function" or FN key...could be one of those got stuck. If that doesn't do it then you may need to replace the keyboard. Most laptops this is very easy and usually around $100.
