[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1666008, member: 56379"] A number of thoughts: 1. Is there any sort of history we should be aware of with this computer. Any previous physical damage or liquid spill damage. 2. Was this computer purchased used? 3. How old is this computer? 4. If you're cleaning "under the keys"…you must be popping off the "chiclet" style key caps. This is something that is definitely doable. But because of the delicate nature of the key caps & the plastic hinged mechanisms underneath. if this is done a lot or improperly…I could see some damage occurring easily. 5. I was going to suggest checking the "Accessibility" or "Universal Access" system preference to see if any settings were changed accidentally. But if the issue is intermittent…it's probably not this. - Nick [/QUOTE]
