Thank you for showing your interest in the HP Forums,
I’d like to help 🙂
As I understand you have an Improper response from certain keys as they don't appear as used on the screen,
There are two common keyboard issues that can occur during the normal operation.
The first is the Num Lock key gets accidentally pressed, turning a portion of the keyboard into a number pad.
The other is the keyboard language gets inadvertently switched from its original language to another, resulting in some letters and numbers appearing different on the screen than how they are typed.
Check the Num Lock key
Set the keyboard language
Update the BIOS and device drivers
If you experience persistent keyboard errors, such as the keyboard frequently switching modes, try updating the notebook's BIOS and device drivers. For more information, see HP Notebook PCs - Locate and Install Updated BIOS, Drivers, and Software.
