My left arrow key is no longer working. Restarted and tried again, does not work. Up, down and right arrow key does work normally. The left keyboard was working completely normally.

I don't want to waste cash on a new keyboard, so is there a really easy quick fix?

Try this...

1. Uninstall the keyboard driver.
2. Reboot the computer (without reinstalling the driver).
3. When it restarts, it should reinstall the driver on its own.

If this doesn't work, you may wish to try connecting an external keyboard and see if it works fine. If it does, then it could be the keys themselves that are the issue.

You may also want to try updating the Synaptics Driver if the above doesn't help.
