Just bought a Lenovo X240 off of someone for a really, really good deal. Tested it at the time of purchase and it was fine.
Then bam, I noticed that when I type, the keyboard would eventually stop working or pause. Pressing the keys repeatedly does nothing, then eventually it'll come back and I can type again. Sometimes it is so erratic that it disconnects and reconnects multiple times. Sometimes I wouldn't even get any keys to work at all except for function keys for like a minute straight. Did notice that gently slapping the right side of the keyboard would make it work but only temporarily.
Interestingly, during this entire post, the keyboard worked without fai.... until now. Yep, it just stopped working for 8 seconds and then it came back.
Any ideas whether it's an actual physical problem? Is this a known issue with the X240? I am certain it is fixable. The laptop is physically very clean with no signs of spillage or crud.
