Default Inspiron 7K keyboard weirdness

Hi all,

I just received and installed a new Inspiron 7k keyboard and it's acting
weird. When I type a h it comes out hu or sometimes huhu. Similar results
with most keys on right side of keyboard. Left side seems to be working all
right. When I press the left arrow and/or up key I get a beep, not so with
right or down key. I've checked and made sure the num lock and scroll lock
aren't on and even went thru the Dell forums with no luck for this problem.
Rechecked connections. Backed off keyboard screws thinking I could have had
a short. Could be time for a new mobo? Any suggestions or comments?
Thanks for your time.
