Stuck Key 36

#1 Post by mmkader85 » Mon May 26, 2014 5:02 am

Hi,

My laptop is a 3.5yrs old one.. I've never faced an error like this before..

When i boot it, sometimes it stuck in black screen.. Says "Stuck key 36. press <F1> to setup".. When i press F1 nothing happens..

And sometimes it loads windows without the black screen.. After using it for a while, suddenly windows prompts "Do you want to turn on Filter Keys ?".. Seems like Right Shift is stuck..

Now my laptop is out of warranty.. Is it worth giving it for service in lenovo service centre ? or i would rather buy a new external keyboard and disable the built-in ?

Thanks,
Abdul

It would be cheapest to just replace the stuck Right Shift key.
Go on eBay and search for: lenovo edge key

But I actually prefer Murphy's from Cork!
