    Apostrophe key error: continous typing of key.


    Hi guys I have a bit of a weird error here.My friends Surface Pro 3 has had a weird error after getting a new keyboard for their device.Apostrophes are typed constantly at random intervals not a continous key press and this continues even with the keyboard disconnected.This is also occuring on when the touch keyboard is being used.A security scan did not show anything abnormal and even after uninstalling the keyboard driver no changes occured.Troubleshooter on the keyboard also did not find anything abnormal.Please let me know if you have any solutions. I have attempted to fix this going fro

    :)

  2. Computer Keeps Typing Apostrophe's

    My laptop keyboard is completely non-functional. It completely unresponsive since that family memeber cleaned it with wrong spray, and it wasn't typing apostrophe's from the start. It was only a month after we replaced the keyboard that the apostrophe thing happened. I don't know if it can be fixed, And I don't think it's even the problem, but what kind of shop do you want me to go to to get it replaced, if that's what I need to do?

  3. Computer Keeps Typing Apostrophe's

    Ah, so it must be the keyboard in your laptop that is typing the apostrophes. This also makes it quite impossible to use the on-screen-keyboard.

    First check if there is a function key (fn) or a hot key to disable the laptop keyboard.

    There are probably only three things I can suggest:

    1. Try to gently take off the apostrophe key in your laptop by referring to this guide. Then consider buying some compressed air or use a vacuum cleaner/mini vacuum on the key once the key cap has been taken off.
    2. This is more advanced and wouldn't recommend this unless you are absolutely sure you know what you are doing) but you could try unscrewing the laptop from the bottom and disconnecting the keyboard connector itself. You will need a disassembly guide for your specific laptop. You could also take it into a shop and get them to either disable the keyboard or possibly see if it can be replaced.
    3. Enter the BIOS by firstly completely shutting down your computer (and with your usb keyboard plugged in) turn it on and repeatedly press f10 (could also be f1, f2, f8, f12) until you see a blue/black screen that has a BIOS title at the top. Then see if you can navigate around by using the esc, arrow keys and enter keys to an option for a laptop internal keyboard. See if you can disable it by changing the option from enabled to disabled, or if you can see no option then you can't disable the laptop keyboard from the BIOS, save and exit by pressing f10 again or whatever the instructions say at the bottom.

    So unfortunately it sounds like it needs to be repaired/disabled by a shop, unless you are completly sure you know how to remove your laptop keyboard.

    What needs to happen now is probably a way to disable the laptop keyboard. This is not as easy as unplugging a usb keyboard as a laptop keyboard is connected inside the laptop. This usually means unscrewing multiple components to get to the keyboard laptop.

    Apostrophe key not working ***read description***

    And when I look at my OSK the apostrophe and quote are flipped, on my keyboard the quote is on the bottom of the key and the apostrophe is on top of the key. Dont know if that matters. But other than that yes, its the same.
