I think it is because of dusty!

Today I found 6 keys do not work, but then I just blow with mouth, then all the key get back. I believe that is the problem. I am working in quite clean environment, but anyway my table is messy. Cheng

You may need to either clean the keyboard. Take it apart and blow out the dust. Be careful with the keys and springs.

Or buy another keyboard as they are cheap, most of them around $20.

I'm with John..... I think you have a paperclip stuck underneath the keys, and need to pop off the letters (covers) and clean the junk out of the keyboard.

If you turn the keyboard upside-down and shake it good, you will probably hear rattling noises.
