[QUOTE="ChrisMacuser, post: 1764286, member: 367864"] Thanks Patrick. I guess I surmised that since the key does "respond" in the sense that it recognizes it is being pressed, that it isn't physical damage. Unfortunately, I have no way to get in touch with the tech who did the repair, only my IT guy can do that. I've seen in multiple places that this isn't an uncommon problem, and while some of the "simple" solutions seemed to have worked, many have reported that nothing worked, and they either gave up, or installed 3rd party applications (I recall Maestro or something like that), so I'll probably try that. In more than one case I read, it was after a tech worked on their computer and the "fix" was to "remap" the keyboard, but I can't seem to find instructions on how to do that. If anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears. Maybe I'm shooting at the moon, but figured if there was anywhere to try, it was here. [/QUOTE]
