 |

Hi
There are some problems with my keyboard. When I start working and stuff everything works fine, but then suddenly my keyboard config changes e will be the spanish enje (that n with something on it ;D ) for example and other keys change their function, too. Reset will be the only way out
OR the caps_lock button inverts. Suddenly I only write in uppercase (caps lock OFF) and when I enable the caps_lock everything is written in lowercase.
OR the keys seem to lock, which really annoys playing games...
[edit]continueing after the second example happened:
... I e.g. walk in a direction and when I take my finger of the key it locks until I press the button again
Would be great if someone could help me. Thanks in advance  |

The first thing I would try is another keyboard to rule out hardware problem. |
