Solve : Keybbbbbbbbboard Problem!?

Answer»

My keyboard is playing up something vicious! When I type it mie ((((((((((misses) out letters or sometimes repeats letters. It is annoying as *censored*! Help would be most appreciated please. Thanks...
redad2 (See !)Can you try another keyboard with that computer? This one may be dying.Is it wireless? Some wireless are real picky about SEEING the reciever.Thank you for your quick responses Rob and sealbee. See.... it is working okay first thing this morning! Contrary!

Yes... I was worried that someone may say I need a new keyboard. So it doesn't appear to be something simple, unfortunately.
I will go and see if I can borrow a neighbour's keyboard to try.

Thanks again...... I'll let you know.

PaulineGrab a new one just in case... they're not that expensive these days.

Thanks again patio. You guys are so very helpful.... thank you soooooo much! I sort of just wing my way with computers...... a bit of a dummy really!

At present I have two keyboards connected..... both working perfectly now [smiley=rolleyes.gif]... wouldn't you know!

I borrowed the second one...... but I'm definitely GOING to buy another one.... what you said patio.. I have a wirless (ooops.. me that time!) mouse also.

Regards...
PNot a bit of a dummy at all...just things not learned yet.

patio. 8-)I run a wireless k-board and mouse, I know the really smart people here say it's better not to. But I throw my feet on the desk and put the k-board on my lap. My wife says I go from laying down on the couch to laying down at the computer. But I make ADJUSTEMENTS and like having a wireless.I love wireless keyboards and mice, mainly because I hate all the clutter of leads everywhere. But your biggest problem is interference. I wish I had thought of the possibility that Pauline might be using wireless equipment, but my thought processes are way too linear sometimes.

Interference is a problem with wireless - especially if there is more than one wireless keyboard/mouse in the same area. I have heard of a keyboard in someone's study interfering with another keyboard in a bedroom on the other side of the house. Usually the 'detect keyboard' buttons switch to another wireless BAND and eliminate the conflict.

Hot tip: make sure the wireless receiver is as close as possible to where you normally use your keyboard and mouse. Second hot tip: avoid cheap wireless kits, for (now) very obvious reasons.All of this is great information.... thank you. I'm SPREADING the word about this website.. [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
Kindest regards....
