You can buy new keys for like, a few dollars a piece. I used to have a website for that kind of stuff bookmarked. I'll have to take a look to see if it's still there. They're really easy to replace.
So at that party last night there was this one girl that would not stfu and was talking to these guys well one of them said lets just go outside so she walks outside and the guy was like *** this I know you all are getting pissed, well they came back in and I was playing pool well I sat down and she came and sat down next to me and started talking to me saying from what you've seen tonight what do you think of me and I just said idk you and haven't been paying attention and she said well maybe if you would talk to me like I want you to you would like me...like dafuq woman?
I...what?
Yea do you understand that at all o.0
I don't understand much, especially when it comes to women. However, that has to be the most confusing ***in the world to me.

You can plug a USB keyboard into your laptop and use that as the input device, no? (Assuming it passes plug-and-play and installs the device driver on detection?)
This is the site I had bookmarked. If they just aren't popping back up, or act like they don't want to accept input, it's probably the rubber cup/bumper under the key.
Guess I should also mention, I'm mostly just assuming it's just worn out, rather than an actual hardware malfunction as a whole. If this is the laptop you use to play FFXI, I can see the 4 key being worn out pretty easily. Backspace is a pretty heavy use key (for me anyway) regardless of what it's being used for.

it doesn't do it all the time, and it just started doing it today.
Yeah... Unless other keys start randomly doing it out of the blue, I'd be willing to guess it's just the rubber contacts being worn out. Which would explain why it's hit-and-miss with whether or not the keys work.
My other post may have gotten missed between Schutz's post and yours, so I'll re-quote.

It's a pretty cheap fix. They even have videos posted that show you how to do it.
I use a cheapass acer keyboard but it works really well for me, I'm kinda picky with how the keys have to sound, feel, and the distance between them, so I hate getting new ones :/ Bought a keyboard for my PS3 but for some reason it wasn't a Swedish one so all the keys were in the wrong place >_>
This is a thread that I found on another website I post at. It can be really really interesting. I thought it deserved a place here.
Post your random thoughts for the day here, or anything else that intrigues you.
For starters, is it possible to give constructive critism to someone who doesn't have a neck? I totally just walked by a girl who didn't. Someone isn't getting a necklace for Valentines day!
And who decided black and white can't be colors? I want to say a racist. I really do.
