Hello,
as this is a laptop it may be a simple case of a function key being in
operation which is setting the keyboard into a navigate mode. check with
your user documentation that came with the laptop under keyboard
functions or similar.

the worst case would be a faulty keyboard which although rare on a new
laptop is not unheard of

hope this helps

Thanks Barman58.
I had to uninstall my pointing device and keyboard and reinstall it.
This appears to have solved the problem.
Thanks for your input.
