Sometimes some of the top row number keys stop working - a key press does nothing?

 

Usually the 8 or 9, often the shift 9 for a bracket too ( but the one next door is fine.

 

Any thoughts. Fairly new Acer E1 522 laptop.

    Try a USB keyboard to verify it's the the keyboard and not software. If the USB keyboard works 

     then you probably have a defective keyboard. If you are still in warranty call Acer for warranty repair or call your local shop for price.
