Keyboard, again..

Seem like recently for the past year, countless of people having problems with keyboard, the one problem that irritate most that is when you press 1 key, many other key appear to be press down too..

Example : Hit "Enter" on keyboard in notepad, "asdfgh" will appear..

This problem is reoccurring for me now, my keyboard was fine for almost a month.

I just wish someone will really know how to fix it..

I've got help with like "Water gets in" "Tiny stone stucked" "Dust"

But I believe 99% those are not the problem.. I've opened my keyboard dried them up and clean.. But still, it happened..

I've finally tried something call Keyscan, basically it shows u what key is being press when you press your keyboard *Obviously*.

Well what I did was, I open Keyscan, I keep pressing the error key, I see which other keys it press down, then I will press those keys that it press down 1 by 1 *Not the error key* then I press the error key and release the other key.. And walla it works.. But after 5 min the problem come back again..

Now I really wish someone can solve this..

Re: Keyboard, again..

The easiest way to troubleshoot this would be try another keyboard on this computer or try this keyboard on another computer.

Re: Keyboard, again..

I assume this is on a desktop?

only thing i would be able to figure with the information ou gave us is that you need to install, "and or" update drivers needed to run this product. if you dont have the CD anymore, google your keybord name and model # and i can wish u the best of luck to find the driver. you can also check out driverguide.com

Re: Keyboard, again..

The keyboard driver is only needed if your keyboard has extra utility buttons. I suspect a bad keyboard encoder. This chip is inside the keyboard. If the other keyboard works ok, this would be the problem.
