There has been a problem with the keyboard recently. When I press the shift + W + spacebar, the spacebar does not respond. If you press the shift + W + V (or any other key (except spacebar)) everything works fine. Drivers updated, sticky keys disabled. Please, help.
P.S. There was no such problem before, it appeared recently.

    First check if all your keyboard keys are functioning 100% and their mechanisms are not worn out and functioning 100%, you can also use an electronic spry to clean contacts and key mechanisms up first, as any slight fault can cause your problems. Also, open the laptop up and check the strip cable that the keyboard connects to the mobo, see if its connected properly and/or not damaged? As the usual keyboard faults are mainly due to mechanical and cable faults, if its that then replace cable or keyboard. Btw you laptop is getting old and its OEM keyboard is due to be replaced also.

    Visually, everything looks good, and the keys are 100% working, but maybe the problem is really in the faulty tracks. Thanks for the reply.
