The Keyboard on my laptop is broken, but I have a USB one (which im using now) is there a way I can uninstall the built in one because its keeps typing things.
Ive tried uninstalling it with Device Manager but it just installs it self on reboot.

Thanks in advance

If you can find the keyboard in device manager, simply set it to disabled instead of uninstalling it. Hopefully that will do what you want it to do.

Thanks for a quick response, but theres no option to disable.

Hmm, you're right. I only have one keyboard plugged in though, I'll try seeing if a second one enables the option to disable.

EDIT: nope, there's no option to disable

Is there no other program I could use to disable it? Or stop it from reinstalling on reboot?

Open the laptop, unplug the keyboard. Most of the time they're connected with a flat cable.

I haven't got the right sized screw driver.. And I wouldnt know what to unplug.

I don't think there is a way to disable an individual keyboard device in Windows. There may be an option in the laptop's BIOS to disable the build-in device, though in almost all modern laptops this is a long shot.

Generally the keyboard will lift out, and the cable to detach is obviously going to be the one connected to it.
