It sounds like there may be dirt or oxidation in your key contacts.  If you
can take apart your calc and look at where the keys make contact, carefully
clean off those places and reassemble you should be able to fix it.  If the
keyboard is a sealed unit with metal domes that flatten when you press a
key, you may be out of luck.
