    if it really is faulty, and hasn't been mistreated, contact the retailer for a free fix under the sale of goods act.

    Agree - it's only 18 months old. SOGA and Consumer Direct are your friends.

    Sometimes very small pieces can get in keyboards preventing keys working or alternatively causing pressure on them making them stick. Try gently turning the laptop upside down and use a paintbrush to try and brush out any bits. Give a gentle shake while upside down. Of course ensure the laptop is off first.

    An alternative would be to hoover they keyboard with an appropriate attachment with care - or used a can of compressed air.
