HP Pavilion Gaming Laptop - 16-a0032dx
Microsoft Windows 11

Hello, I am having a problem with my HP pavilion gaming laptop 16-a0032dx. While I am playing games, ill hold down certain keys like WASD and at random times the key will stop registering (It makes me stop moving out of nowhere in game) and I have to press and hold the key again for it to move. I have already tried updating drivers, turning off filter keys, cleaning the keyboard, and im not sure what to do

Welcome to the HP support community.

 

I understand that you are getting issues with the keyboard, I am glad to assist you.

Update the Bios, chipset, and drivers using HP Support Assistant.

Download and run the HP Support Assistant from this Link: Click here

 

  • HPSA will automatically search for all the latest drivers for your Notebook
  • Click My devices in the top menu, and then click Updates in the My PC or My notebook pane.
  • Click Updates in the My notebook pane
  • Click Check for updates and messages to scan for new updates.
  •  Updates list in HP Support Center
  • Review the list of updates. Updates with a yellow information icon are recommended. Updates with a blue information icon are optional.
  • Click the update name for a description, version number, and file size.
  • Select the box next to any updates you want to install, and then click Download and install.

Also, ensure Windows is up to date.

  • Select the Start  button, and then go to Settings  > Update & security  > Windows Update , and select Check for updates. If Windows Update says your device is up to date, you have all the updates that are currently available

 

Let me know how it goes.

To thank me for my efforts to help you, please mark my post as an accepted solution so that it benefits several others.

Cheers.
