    W key continuously repeating on its own without pressing any keys


    I am running windows 11 home version on an acer desktop and since yesterday I started having an issue where the W key is stuck and continuously repeating any time I open a page where there is space to type. I thought it was an issue with the keyboard itself so I swapped it out for a different keyboard and the same thing keeps happening. One is a bluetooth keyboard and the other is a usb keyboard if that makes any difference. I have tried running Norton, restarting the computer multiple times, uninstalling the keyboards, updating the drivers and resetting the PC to factory settings. Anyone have

    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?
