Why are MSI laptop keyboards such fucking shit? The W key on my keyboard has been stuttering for 6 months and it's driving me crazy. Resetting the embedded controller used to help, but today is less effective. Now, my laptop restarts like 3 times after resetting the EC, and it doesn't fix the problem for some reason. Tried about every software solution I could find but none seem to be foolproof. Any tips? Should I just send it to geek squad for them to re-solder?

lol that happened to me on an 1st gen Surface like 12 years ago. Glad to see that nothing ever changes at MS.

Kind of like how I used to have to turn on my monitor and computer is a specific order and timeframe in order to get my old Samsung monitor to pick up the signal. Then, 10 years later I got another Samsung monitor AND IT DOES THE SAME THING!
