[QUOTE="jmosier, post: 1040999, member: 47522"] It started today and randomly the keys on my Macbook Pro (2.0ghz, running 10.6.3) stopped working. No matter how much (or hard) you press them, nothing happens. The weirdest thing is that only keys A-L dont work. The caps lock worked as well as the semi-colon and all the other keys on my keyboard. I tried rebooting and nothing solved it. Then randomly they just started working again. It happened this morning for probably 5 minutes and just again when i got home from work, again they were only "broken" for about 5 minutes or so. I did nothing to solve the problem & magically the keys A through L began to work again. Also they are not sticky and have not come into contact with any water, etc. as far as i'm aware. Has anyone heard of this? I haven't done anything "new" to my system recently for them to just stop working this morning at random. Also i have checked all the settings in System Preferences & all is well. I'm guessing they will stop working at any time again...its super random. Please let me know if you have any info. [/QUOTE]
