Keyboard problems

[rasheed]

I'm currently on a Sony laptop thats moderately old (5+ years) while i get my other laptop fixed.

This laptop has a tendency to unexpectedly spam 'x'. Im using an USB keyboard but i need to find a way to disable the built in keyboard thats causing the problem.

Thanks in advance.

What OS is it? You can disable the drivers for it, though there are occasionally some *ahem* unforseen consequences.

I did this to my laptop's touchpad because I use a mouse and it very rarely derps up.

Also if you are so inclined, you can easily remove the keyboard entirely in most laptops, which has the added bonus of better ventilation.

Windows Vista.

Everytime i try uninstalling the drivers. It reinstalls itself every bootup.

Theres no way to remove the keyboard.

What laptop model is it? It may look like you can't remove it but that's how laptop keyboards are. There should be some very small tabs on the top of the keyboard you need to push inward.

Try physically removing the X key.

That should work.

I ripped off half the keys on the keyboard.

No works
