    Equals key continuously typing when not pressed down


    Hello!


    I have been dealing with this issue for about a week now, and it is driving me crazy. There are times where my equals key will just keep spamming, even when it's not pressed down. I have been trying everything to resolve it, but I am running out of options. Here is what I've attempted to do:


    -Unplugged all peripherals from my pc still occurs when all peripherals are unplugged

    -Ran Windows updates

    -Ensured Sticky Keys is disabled Everything keyboard related in Ease of Access is disabled

    -Ran virus scans through Windows Defender and Malwarebytes

    -Checked OSK.exe, nothing highlighted there

    -Uninstalled and reinstalled keyboard drivers


    The last thing I did was use Windows + L to log out and back in, and it hasn't happened since, but I am unsure if that was the full resolution. I would appreciate any possible fixes you could supply me.


    Thanks in advance!

    David

    Booting without press any key

    @dhievm go ahead and list the model number that gives exact specs/info.


    Does it stop right at the Toshiba logo and sit there? Will it sit forever til you press a key, or will it eventually work after so long?
