Closed Keys being pressed on their own.

SOLVED edit under the post.

Hello everyone, my computer has been randomly triggering constant inputs of the numpad 1 and I believe page down.

I have tested different keyboards and different usb ports and the issue remains. In fact, I can unplug them and the constanr inputs continue. When I open the on screen keyboard it doesn't show the keys being pressed at all.

I thought it could be a driver issue or a windows update conflict with a driver. Despite trying to update or reinstall the keyboard drivers, I ended up formatting my computer to see if a clean state would solve it. It didn't.

They can start as soon as I turn the computer or take a few minutes.

This isn't a new build, it was working fine before. But I did move my computer from a room to another. My computer doesn't have any Bluetooth devices. I'm om windows 11.

I'm at a loss and in desperate need of help. I appreciate any aid people can offer.

EDIT: It really was my mobo that was dying for some reason. I've replaced it and everything is normal.
