The keys on nearly all keyboards are "matrixed" together so that when a group fails at the same time their part of the wiring has a problem. It might be in a chip and therefore not really repairable, but if you think something might have been spilled into the keyboard, it could cause a problem like this. In that case, power down the keyboard, open it and look for stains or moisture. Moisture can be removed with a towel or leaving it under a warm lamp for a few hours. Stains can be removed with a Q-tip dipped in isopropyl alcohol (available at drugstores). If the stains are under a chip, you could try getting the alcohol under it anyhow and hope that it dissolved the stain, but it may also not be able to be repaired.

With the low pricing on wireless keyboards and mice nowadays, especially Black Friday sales, you'd be better off buying a better keyboard and mouse for a good deal. Usually when a few keys begin to give you problems it is the sign of the beginning of the end.

Beeps, keys not working, touchpad dont work

That is an indication that the "s" key is stuck on your keyboard. (permanently pressed down...or making contact).
Try to manually move it out of its current state, even though it doesn't seem to be stuck.
That will solve your problem.

Backspace doesnt work

in all likelihood your shift key is stuck. try pressing and releasing both shift keys in an attempt to "free" them. Also, check to ensure that "sticky keys" is not enabled on your computer(pressing and holding the shift key for about 10 seconds should pop up a window if it is. if the window appears, just make sure that the key is not "stuck" by windows).

Solution: mechanical agitation for your shift keys to attempt to free them, and a good thorough cleaning for all of your keyboard with canned air and/or a lint free cloth damp with dilluted isoprophyl alchohol to prevent this from happening in the future with these or other keys. Alternately, replace your keyboard.
