    Try a different keyboard. If that works, turn the old one upside down and beat hell out of the bottom. Sometimes that will dislodge foreign matter causing problems.

    ROFLMAO on the bit of advice CR. I have wanted to beat the hell out of many, many different computers. Surprisingly doing just that fixes things sometimes and gets you back up and running.

    I am about ready to do the beating thing on the X Axis DRO connector for my mini mill. The damn thing just does not want to maintain connectivity. I am about ready to chop the end off it and solder the wires to the slider.
