    Hello.
    I have a problem with the keyboard of the above mentioned laptop. Namely, only Polish characters work for me, as if the alt key was pressed (this is also the case on the on-screen keyboard). Reinstalling the driver in device manager did nothing. The laptop runs on Windows 7. What should I do in this situation?
    Please help.

    Disconnect the keyboard and look at the usb keyboard.

    Check if the same thing happens on any LiveCd system.

    Same with the usb keyboard.

    No, for about 3 weeks.

    Try Ctrl+Shift or Left Alt+Shift.

    This problem may be in the system settings regarding the keyboard.

    Exactly, I had a similar case, I pressed some key combination and it did. Check your settings, try other left alt combinations, etc.

    Sorry for taking so long to reply but I had internet problems. Coming back to my problem, I found that in safe mode this problem also occurs, but it goes away after pressing lalt+lctrl+palt. I tried this combination on Windows 7 but it didn't help. What can this mean, because I'm starting to run out of ideas. Oh, I reinstalled the system and it was fine until the reboot, but after a reboot the problem reappeared.
    Edit: I did a keyboard test and the program shows that the alt and ctrl keys are pressed non-stop (of course I don't press them).

    This indicates a damaged keyboard.
    Disconnect it from the board and then look at the external keyboard.
    Was the keyboard flooded?

    There is indeed a problem with the keyboard. I did a test of the entire keyboard in the program and it turned out that the alt key on the laptop keyboard does not work at all, while on the usb keyboard everything is ok, so I am already trying to buy a keyboard ;) .
