Some keys just don't work

cccap · 06-25-2009, 10:39 AM

Hi

I'm using this Dell keyboard and I don't think the model matters
So far, it has worked PERFECT
I haven't spilt anything on it and the keys are not jammed

My right arrow key does not work, nor does the 'Enter' on the right [number pad one] nor does the minus sign (-)
My CTRL (on the left) does not work

It's not jammed like I said
I think it might be some settings because when I press the CTRL key, it turns my sound to mute

I've had this keyboard for years now - could it just be the keyboard that is going crazy?

I would try a different/new keyboard.

Try another keyboard.
