Razer Lycosa Keyboard

[Leftenent]

So, I've had a lycosa keyboard for about a year and a half. Ongoing issue is every so often a key will no longer respond, and i have to take out then reinsert the USB cable to hard reset it. Then the button works.

This morning, all of the sudden, when I pushed the 'g' key, 'gkol' entered. when i hit the 'h' key, i got a string of about 12 letters and numbers. When i hit the 'L' key, my computer went through win 7 shutdown. I figured it might be a macro prank or whatnot, so I reset my profile and macro's to factory settings. Made no difference. Any ideas? Or am I stuck with this 5 dollar 12 year old ps/2 keyboard until I can afford a new one?

I have the same keyboard and I've never had that issue. Mine has died though. It no longer lights up. And it started to act weird when I was in-game. The key would get stuck when it wasn't. The key wouldn't be depressed, but I'd be stuck running backwards or sideways. I'd have to exit the game and restart it to fix the issue. But now the A key no longer works My suggestion, get another USB keyboard and see if it's a computer issue or a keyboard issue. Hopefully it's the keyboard and you can just get a new one

So if I'm looking for new keyboards, any suggestions out there? Would love some input!

Wait, try uninstalling and installing the drivers.
Then, go looking for a new keyboard. Of which I recommend a Microsoft Sidewinder X4.
