My computer developed something new and interesting this week. Everytime I hit the up arrow, it goes into standby.

Ive scanned the crap out of this thing looking for a virus and have come up with nothing.

Help me make this go away.

Need some info;

What keyboard connection type? (AT/XT, PS2, USB?)

Most importantly - is anyone else using the machine?
