Ensure your laptop is on a hard, flat surface to allow proper ventilation. Clean the vents and fans with compressed air to remove dust. Consider using a cooling pad for additional airflow. Update your BIOS and graphics drivers to the latest version for optimal performance.
To perform a factory reset, go to 'Settings' > 'Update & Security' > 'Recovery'. Under 'Reset this PC', click 'Get started' and follow the prompts to reset your laptop to factory settings. Ensure you back up any important data before proceeding.
The Dell G15 5510 typically offers around 5-7 hours of battery life under normal usage. To maximize battery life, lower the screen brightness, close unnecessary applications, and use battery saver mode. Avoid extreme temperatures and keep your BIOS and drivers updated.

First, restart your laptop to see if it resolves the issue. If not, check for any debris under the keys and clean if necessary. Update the keyboard driver via 'Device Manager'. If the problem persists, perform a system restore or contact Dell support.
