    Shut down, hook up a USB keyboard and start with that.

  • Try holding down the ALT key and typing the number 0081 for Q or 0113 for q - I don't use Windows so havn't tried it, but those numbers are the ASCII equivalents, and historically Windows has allowed you to enter characters that way.

  • HP keyboards can generally be replaced, though its not entirely trivial (working on laptop hardware rarely is).

  • I am literally using the On-Screen Keyboard right now because I broke the Y key.
