erratic behavior

[SpywareDr]

Reset the BIOS to factory defaults first.

Then check to see if the same problem occurs when running in Safe mode.

If no, then that could point to a problem with software that runs in 'normal' mode but not Safe mode.

If yes, it could be a hardware problem.

To find out, boot from a Live CD|USB such as Knoppix and see if the same problem occurs.

If yes, and if possible, try plugging the keyboard into a different port ... one that's directly connected to the motherboard (of course).

If the same problem is still occurring, starting to sound like it may be a bad motherboard.

Let us know what you find ...
