why pressing some keys on the keyboard two letters or two numbers are written instead of just one .. example:

-6 (only number six numeric keyboard) 19-6-6    instead of 1966

t5 (letter T) LET5T5ER  instead of letter

... or y6 (number six in the alphabetical keyboard) 

 and many many  others ...  whatsup? how can I solve it? 

sorry for google translator

In general, things work better when both Windows Updates and your HP software and drivers are kept current.

 

Try the following - if the keyboard is not working because the drivers are corrupted, this may resolve the problem...

 

Control Panel > icon view . Device Manager

Open / Expand category Keyboards

Right-Click on the keyboard and Uninstall

 

Restart the computer and log in - check for any difference.

You are welcome.

 

I am sorry it did not help - it was an "easy" option.

 

➡️  What is the full model name / product number of your computer?

How to find:

Finding your Product Name, Product Number, or Serial Number

Please do NOT post the serial number.

 

➡️  What is the exact version / build of Windows you are running?

How to find:

Control Panel > icon view > Administrative Tools > System Information > "Version"

 

➡️  Please provide details if you have them:

  1. Is the issue new?
  2. Do you know when it started?  For example, Did this start after Windows Updates? 
  3. Are there other problems, crashes, indications that "something" is wrong?

 

➡️  Testing

 

Troubleshooting 

Read and follow the instructions in this HP document:

HP Notebook PCs - Keyboard Troubleshooting (Windows)

 

NOTE: 

The first recommendation is to test the keyboard.

Testing for Hardware Failures

 

Online Keyboard Test

I tried the test suggested below and it seems a reasonable test.   I do not know whether it will tell you anything useful.

Keyboard Tester

 

Keyboard Replacement

The problem might be hardware - that is, the keyboard may need to be replaced.  This is usually a "moderate" skill level replacement - not terribly expensive but not a quick "open and swap" repair process.

 

After you send back the model information, I will send you the links to the Maintenance manual and the other information.

 

Get Help from HP Support

If your computer is under warranty and it you want to skip all the testing, questions, and homework, contact HP Support in your region, submit a case for the keyboard, provide the necessary information, explain the issue, and ask for help.
