Windows 10 results in repeated Internal Power Failure in Dell Inspiron


I upgraded a couple of 5 year old Dell desktops (an Inspiron 580 and Optiplex 790) to Windows 10 with no problems. I did make sure to upgrade each pc to the latest bios (A07 for the Inspiron 580 and A18 for the Optiplex 790) before attempting to upgrade to Windows 10. Both started with Windows 7 Home.

I also upgraded three Dell laptops, an Inspiron 1545, Inspiron 17r 7110 and an Inspiron 17r 5737. All with no problems. Once again, I made sure that each was upgraded to the latest Dell bios before attempting the Windows 10 upgrade. The 1545 had Windows 7 Home, 17r 7110 had Windows 7 Pro and the 17r 5737 had Windows 8.1 Home before the upgrade.

 

Some keyboard keys stopped working after windows 10 upgrade

Has the Notebook been worked on? Do any of those keys work if holding down the Shift key? Have you used compressed air to blow out any crud that may be blocking the keys?

It's not expensive nor hard to replace the keyboard, usually can find a video or step-by-step articles on the 'net.
Amazon shows a new keyboard:
