I have the above laptop/smartbook. Upon switching on the system it works fine in tablet modern ( with on screen keyboard) however as soon as I press any key on the keyboard proper the volume icon appears in the top left of the screen an is stuck on 100, any attempt to turn it down fails, the volume simply climbs back to 100 where it remains. The keyboard and touchpad are immediately rendered unresponsive, only the touchscreen then works. Simultaneously there is a clicking sound as though a key is being constantly pressed, a keyboard self diagnostic confirms this, I suspect that it is the volume control on the left side od the keyboard as there is no hepatic response from the 'up' side if the button. Is there any way to disable this switch? Or could the problem be a software one? My machine is under warranty til 2016.
