This seems to be a Hardware issue. I suggest you run a keyboard test to confirm the Hardware Functionality

 

- Hold the power button for at least five seconds to turn off the Notebook.
- Turn on the computer and immediately press Esc repeatedly, about once every second. 
- When the menu appears, press the F2 key.
- On the main menu, click Component Tests and Keyboard

 

If the Test fails, please contact HP Support for Service Options
