Well it depends.. has the laptop been dropped recently? could be a motherboard issue. Also try opening the laptop and make sure the keyboard is connected to the motherboard.

Most likely it could be a keyboard gone bad in the hardware department which you would have to replace it.

What are common reasons that a key on a laptop or computer keyboard would stop working?

The most common reason for a key on a laptop or computer keyboard to stop working is dust or debris that is under the key. Turn off the PC or laptop. If desktop, unplug the keyboard from the PC. Lay out sheets of newspaper on the floor and sit on the floor with the laptop or PC keyboard. Gently turn it upside down (must open the laptop lid for this) and GENTLY tap very few inches across the bottom. Dust and debris should fall out onto the newspaper. Also tap along the edges on all sides. Next, if you have a can of air used on computers, (make sure the area is well ventilated and), hold the keyboard at an angle and blow out remaining dust. Let dry completely. Use a SMALL amount of rubbing alcohol on a soft paper towel to wipe off the tops of the keys. LET DRY. Reattach to PC or power. Try the keys. If it still will not work, you may need help to pop off the letter cap and use tweezers to lift out any debris. UNPLUG FIRST. And BE careful -- there are 3 pieces under a cap that MUST stay in place, 2 plastic frames and a rubber cap in the center. To reattach the key, align it in its slot and press on the corners so it pops back on.

Why when you use a pen on your laptops touchpad it doesnt input it on the screen but when you use your fingers it works im trying to use it as a graphics tablet?

Edit I have a Toshiba Satellite with windows 8.1.As I turned it on everything was OK but after a minute or so my touchpad stopped working,it doesn't move it will scroll and click but without the cursor moving.I figured that it actually works but I have to double tap the touchpad and then move but after I stop it won't work again and I have to double tap it every time to move it and it makes things very hard.I tried restarting it and turning it off and then on again and just after it goes on the touchpad works fine but again after a moment it stops.What should I do? Update: I also tried disabling and then enabling it but it doesn't work.
