HP laptop, WASD on keyboard not working properly when gaming

[Aleksandar9898]

Hello all. So my problem is with WASD on the keyboard. They seem to stop working from time to time when I play a game (Fortnite). I press for expample "W" and my character doesn't move forward. And in order to register I need to let it go and then press it again. This also happens with "A" and D", not sure for "S". Its seems like it only happens with these buttons. This problem happens every 2-3 minutes and in my observations it hapens when I press a certain combination of keys. Mainly a combination with "C" and "V". Although i'm not absolutly sure. Any ideas?
