hardware error

[Michael]

It is a lenovo. I went into bios and tried resetting it to default but that
didn't help a bit. It opens the screen asking which os to load (sometimes)
then it asks for a password. Then the os icon pops up (Linux MInt) as the
os loads and finally it asks for the password again (all normal). The muse
pad does not work and the keyboard is sometimes completely dead and when it
is not one of the keys is stuck on. I figured out to try the wireless mouse
and so I clicked the on-screen keyboard option which allows me to log in.
But when I get to the os I can't press a button because it will be stuck on
if I do so. As a last resort I will get a wireless keyboard/mouse and just
do my best not to hit a button.... or else is there a way to deactivate the
mouse from the os?
