'P' Key not working - software issue?

Ok this is weird. The P key stopped working on my laptop, I assumed it was something wrong with the keyboard or something. Plugged in a USB keyboard and the P key doesnt work on the new keyboard either. Which is strange because it does work when plugged into my main PC.

Any idea what could be causing this? Im assuming its some software/windows issue but I honestly have no clue.

I'll have a p please Bob. That is such a weird random thing. If you enable the onscreen keyboard, does it work then? Do that from accessibility options. I suspect a refresh is in order.

Ive just tried this and the P does not work on the onscreen keyboard either...Im getting freaked out

Have been told by the gf that this might have been a kitten related incident. Cat was walking all over the keyboard. Wonder if hes pressed something that caused this.
