Fujitsu S904: some keys no longer working on the keyboard

Fujitsu S904: some keys no longer working on the keyboard
Hi there,
After running the Windows 10 update in February 2020, certain keys (numbers, some letters, and arrows) on the keyboard no longer work.
The laptop came with W8 and I updated it to W10, all worked perfectly until end of last month. The virtual keyboard works fine but the in built keybaord gives the same issues when typing outside of Windows.
I have run the troubleshoot function and have updated drivers.
I am not sure what else to do, I think I have also an issue with the graphic as the the letters appear all fuzzy even when viewing websites.
Any help would be very much appreciated. Cheers!

For keyboard, try an external USB-keyboard. If that's fine, it most likely is a hardware issue, not a Windows issue. Confirm that by booting from a Linux disc or stick (free to make if you don't have one) or into the recovery console of your Windows 10 install disc or stick (free to make, if you don't have one yet). in Windo
Fuzzy letters are a common side effect of the resolution setting in Windows being different from the native resolution of the monitor. Did you check that?

Yes, thank you. I have bought a Bluetooth keyboard, but my notebook keyboard needs to be repaired so that I can use it when I am out. I am trying various methods to repair it. If it does n’t work, I just have to replace it with a new one.
