Øyvind, I experienced that when I upgraded to BIOS A10 from A08. Fortunately, I was able to downgrade from A10 back to A08. I suspect that either A10 has an issue or it just pokes even harder at this bug than A08 did. (A10 cites "Keyboard input improvement" as one of its fixes, which is probably the relevant change.)
