    Some of the keys (N, M, left arrow, right arrow) on my MSI MS1029 notebook seem a bit irresponsive. Especially when you press the upper part of these keys. You really have to press firmly in the middle to get a good response.

    Anyone else who has the same problem?

    How long have you had it? Did you maybe get a little gunk (crumbs, soda, whatever) in it?

    Yes I know I am no help. :)

    No gunk, it's a brand new notebook. Actually, this is my second MSI MS1029 notebook in 4 weeks time. First one froze all the time, especially when playing games. So I sent it back and got a new one last saturday. This time I have a problem with the keyboard. Some keys seem irresponsive. I have to press these keys right in the middle to get a good response. I like to play games, so it's a bit frustrating when for example the arrow keys don't work quite well.

    Might be a flex issue. I followed this instructtions, stuffed some tape in there (where I could feel the flex) and that helped.
