I have a different HotKey issue.  I am working on an notebook 2000 329wm running Windows 7 home premium 64-bit.

 

While typing there are 3 keys that are causing the following actions.

 

d - opens a web browser.

c - opens the print menu.

3 - open the calculator.

 

no additional key needs to be pressed in sequence or in addition to these keys.  The actions occur if typing in any program including the command line prompt.

if a USB keyboard is plugged in it does not occur using the external keyboard..

 

I have ran vaious malware and virus software, reinstalled the OS, updated the BIOS, uninstalled the keyboard driver, and even replaced the keyboard.  I swapped hard drives from a computer running Windows 10 with no difference.

 

I am at a loss at what to try next.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
