Keyboard problem: HP Pavilion

[riscbroker]

I have a well kept HP Pavilion, daily driver, about 3 years old. Yesterday, I noticed that the backspace key had ceased functioning and on further inspection found that the apostrophe/quotation mark key, the 8 key on the number pad and the * key have also gone on strike.

I tried uninstalling keyboard drivers and restarting the machine to no avail. Booting to a Linux disk does not help either. I have to assume keyboard failure - where can I seek a replacement locally?

@WAslayer I see the SPL online shopping link is dead/403 - do I have to be registered with them to buy?

Edit: NVM, they replied to my email.
