Okay, so I have a Microsoft IntelliType Pro or whatever wireless keyboard, and all the buttons work fine, except for my arrow keys. Well, actually the arrow keys work, but when I'm playing a game or something that requires the use of my keyboard/arrow keys, it doesn't respond to them, as if they don't work or something.

Any ideas?

Never used wireless but I know someone that does, and they say when things start to get screwy it's usually time to renew the battery's, so while your awaiting a gamer who may have better insight to such issues check that out, sometimes the simplest of causes can create the biggest annoyances.

In a gamers opinion I would suggest gettin ride of Wireless.
to be wired has better reaction.

It's usually the batteries; from experience.
My mobile phone also effected it, when I had wireless.
Also, I found some games just didn't like wireless... but that may have been coincidence.
