Hello,

I have been having some problems with my keyboard. It is an old Hp multimedia keyboard model: 5189URF.

My problem is: whenever I play games I notice that when I try to use the shift key while I'm already HOLDING down other keys, the game's shift function does not activate and my imput is locked to the key I was pressing previously. However, when I PRESS shift before something, I can then sprint/dodge/etc. It's a really big pain in the *censored* double tapping w, or pressing shift before something else.

Is there any way to modify the keyboard to make shift activate normally?

P.S. I can press up to 6 keys on this keyboard at a time so it's not an issue with number of keys held. (I wouldn't even be having this problem if I didn't spill water on my other keyboard, I FEEL like such a dope.)New keyboards are very cheap. In fact, if you use a keyboard to play games, you ought to use a second keyboard.

On eBay you can get a normal keyboard from a major company for under $15. Even with free shipping. So there is no excuse for abusing your keyboard. Get a spare keyboard and use it for games.

Just a plain keyboard.Thanks for replying,

I just looked for a logitech cheap wired keyboard, and I FOUND the K120. Does this keyboard ring a bell, and if it does, is it any good in your opinion?Go ahead an buy it.
Logitech makes good stuff.
