Help my keyboard is acting up, it is suddenly typing random letters like 'y' types y7, and 't' types t4. This happened when I was cleaning my keyboard while it was on, I don't know I broke my computer or pressed something. Sticky keys and key filters are off, I have reinstalled my keyboard driver. What do I do!?

What is the make and model please.

When you were cleaning it did you turn it upside down at all or hit it with your hand?

This problem has been resolved, turns out that I just needed to wait 5 hours. It automatically fixed my computer somehow.

Nice!
Just because I am curious, how did you clean it, did you use any cleaning liquid?
