On a computer that old anything can go wrong. Plug in an external keyboard. If it works OK then you have ruled out a motherboard issue and you can replace the keyboard. On that older model keyboard replacement is pretty easy and the keyboard will be available on eBay for not much money. Post back if you need specific help.

Hi there, Huffer. Have seen your other posts re the dv7 series. Do you happen to have shop? Thanks!

HP Recommended

Not sure what you are asking. You think I sell computer hardware? No I am just a contributing fellow end user

No, not hardware, but for repairs? Have a dv7-7250us, a really nice machine that I would like to have working once again. Thanks for response.

Used to have a shop for repairs a few years back. Don't now. What is the problem with the dv7?
