Is the keyboard mechanism damaged, or are you just missing the keycaps?

If the keyboard mechanism is damaged, you'll have to get a replacement from
HP. If the keycaps are just missing, then you can most likely find a
compatible set somewhere on the net by searching.

If you are so rough on your keyboard that you are damaging it, I would
suggest the use of an external keyboard, either wired or wireless. It will
be cheaper to replace that than to repair the notebook keyboard. You should
not be doing whatever it is that caused you to :lose" some keys.
