How Can I Fix The Keyboard

Some of the keys on my Satellite C850 don't work. How can I fix them? I've tried using an electronics duster, but no luck. When I look in "devices" it says it's working properly, but it's not.

You'll most likely have to replace the keyboard. You can buy a replacement on eBay. Instructions on how to replace the keyboard can be found in this video.
