Hello good day can anyone help me ? I recently replaced my toshiba z40-a 4310u motherboard that went bad with another 4310u motherboard that is working. When I started it up everything worked well then after while my keyboard started giving a few problems which was the FN key stop working, the CAPS LOCK key stop working and SPACE BAR stopped working. After a while my volume from my speakers stopped working as well. The mouse cursor will just stick to the left or right or move all around the place without me touching it and even disabling the touchpad physically, the mouse cursor would still move Sometimes the A key will just press by itself and when I press backspace it would stop pressing. I have tried updating drivers, reinstalling drivers, uninstalling drivers and restarting the laptop so that windows will install manually, reinstalling a fresh install of Windows the problem still persist and no water or liquid has ever spilled on the laptop. After I changed the motherboard the issues occurred. Any fix to this issue or do I have to buy another keyboard touchpad and speaker ?

i tried updating to windows 20H2 and i still did the same thing so i reverted back to windows 1909 and unfortunately i don't got anyone who has a keyboard for me to try out, i would have to buy it online. When i do plug in an external keyboard it works perfectly fine and also using a bluetooth headset, i hear audio clearly.
 
You might have to pull it apart to check the ribbon cables were inserted and locked into place correctly.
