Keyboard strokes producing strings of letters. ?

Question

HP G61-429WM
Windows 7 Home Premium
Keyboard strokes are not working properly. For example. pressing "q" will produce "qew" with the cursor between the e and w. Pressing "a" "s" or "d" will all produce "ads". Right arrow key produces "132". The "i" key doesn't even work. These are some of the issues with it. some keys do work as programmed.
Here is what I've tried.
-Updated keyboard and BIOs drivers.
-Physically cleaned the keyboard.
-Checked languages in keyboard settings.
-Uninstalled the device and reinstalled it.
I'm unsure what to try next. Asking for assistance.
Thanks,
Julian

Hello Pwnch,
I understand you are having some issues with your keyboard. Well I will try to help you the best I can.
First thing I would like you to do is called a hard reset.
1.       Turn off the computer.
2.       Remove all cables including the ac adapter and battery.
3.       Once all is removed press and hold the power key for 20 seconds and then release.
4.       Reinsert battery and ac adapter
5.       Locate the F8 key on the keyboard and when you turn the computer tap it repeatedly.
6.       It should place you on an all-black screen , using you arrow keys go to do safe mode with networking and press enter
Now you will load into an environment that is much minimized on what you can do. Everything will be enlarged which is normal, and you won’ be able to use most of the features you normally use. Once there go to the start menu and pull up your notepad and test it. Once you test it out let me know your results, and we can go from there.
Pretty much confirm if the keyboard functions the same way or if it works fine.
Please respond at your earliest convenience.
Thanks
