Hello,
I am so glad I found this site! I am experiencing so frustrating issues and as a work at home mother, I just don't have the time for my computer to be doing this stuff!

here is what is happening. I had some issues with my computer a month or so ago. got it back from HP and about 2 weeks later it started a new problem. It seems like it is freezing of sorts. I can access programs and do other stuff, but it will absolutely not let me use the keys "g", 'h" and "backspace". It appears as though the system gets busy or something and these are the keys it is affecting. It will let me use all other keys though. I have completed a disk clean-up and a defrag and things are exactly the same. I also do my virus scan daily and it is not detecting a virus.

Any help you can provide will be so greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Blessings,

Mom2three
