My keyboard appears to be sticking, like when I hold down the button and let go, the keyboard thinks I'm still holding it down. The button comes up, but I keep seeing my character walking in games that involve WASD to move. As far as I can tell, those are the only buttons. But I really can't tell because those are the only keys I ever have to hold down.

Yeah, but I want to be able to fix this without having to buy one. My parents are kinda busy today, and I'm too young to drive. I will buy one if I have to.

Try cleaning it, just make sure you don't break it while cleaning it. That's what I did to my old one <.< >.> I was shaking it and I shook it too hard and the space key broke.

I would try unplugging the key board from the computer and plugging it back in. And then see if the keys seem sticky.

If all else fails, I suggest investing in a laser keyboard like me ( I use this for travels when I play games on a portable desktop.)

It might feel weird at first but you'll get used to it. It is around 100 bucks.
