ALRIGHT ALRIGHT
I've uninstalled the drivers of my laptop's integrated keyboard (although I do still get occasional glitches where random keys will fly up) and I strolled on into town today to pick up a USB plug-in one. Pending further problems, I'll open up the casing and physically disconnect the laptop's keyboard entirely. The touch-pad mouse is still a little jumpy, but I think this works well enough as a temporary fix.
So it seems I posted a thread for an indefinite absence and resolved it in under twenty-four hours. However, I will take a moment now to mention that this computer is still FUBAR. Certainly isn't what I paid £400 for in January. I'm gonna disappear for a week at some point in the next month or so, hopefully before I go to uni at the end of September, when I send this heap of crap back to the shop and put the warranty to good use.
I am suspicious that this computer's gonna do something stupid again soon, so I'll just bump this thread on my phone if anything bad happens. But in the meantime, hey.
