With nothing more than you've been into and out again, I suspect that
either the keyboard cable or the touchpad cable is not firmly clamped.
If these cables attach with a wedge clamp, it is possible to get one end
of the clamp fixed and then while doing the other end, the first end
pops back up. In any event, it is a cable problem of some kind.
