  2. W key stays pressed after long press

    I have been using my Dell Inspiron 15 7547 laptop, for a year, it has only been sent for repairing once (Screen stopped working, they did nothing to the keyboard) for pretty much everything. And about a month ago this problem started happening. When I leave
    the w key pressed for a long time, it stays pressed for a while.

    One of the many things I do, and probably in which I spend about 60% of my time on the laptop, is playing video games, and my client is modded, so I thought that maybe it was a glitch in the mod. I tried uninstalling the mod, but it still happened. So then
    I went to Word, and did the same stuff, and I discovered, that it also happens in there.

    Then I decided to test something, so I put a stopwatch on my phone, and I started it at about the same time as I started pressing the key w. After 25 seconds of pressing it, I released it, and it stayed pressed (Not really down, but it types the letter w
    as if it were) for another 5 seconds, then I did the same, but I pressed it for 50 seconds, the key stayed pressed for 10 seconds. If you didn't notice yet, both 5/25 and 10/50 are 0.2, so I got to the conclusion that for every 1 second my w key stays pressed,
    0.2 seconds accumulate, and so, when I release the key, depending on how many seconds I pressed it, let's say for example 3 seconds, the key will stay pressed for a number of seconds times 0.2, in this case, 0.6 seconds. At this point I couldn't believe it,
    so I searched on the internet to see if anyone had the same problem, and I found people with this problem, but no solutions. I tried the same test, but removing the key, just pressing the pad, and it had the same effect.

    If anyone has this same problem/knows how to solve it please tell me

    UPDATE #1: Now it's about 0.9 seconds per second

    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?
