Hi. I need some serious help with this weird problem.

On my TiBook (latest Panther after "erase and Install"), Pressing the Spacebar, arrow keys, Delete, Tab, Esc, and a few others activates other features. For example:

The spacebar activates a combination of the volume key and expose.

The Delete Key activates brightness and types weird characters.

etc...


This is very weird. It happens in every app, including the finder, and it even showed up in the registration screen after I did a clean install.

I think its a short. Removing the keyboard and typing brings everything back to normal.

Has anyone seen this before? Could it be a loose cable?
