Hi, recently had a problem with my Microsoft wireless multimedia keyboard . If I hold down for example the sprint button for more than 2 seconds it just stops and becomes unresponsive and this is the same with all the other keys.
The batteries can't be low because this does not happen at all outside of games. I know that wireless keyboards are not good for gaming, but not responding at all?

thanks in advance...
 
it's the way those wireless keyboards are designed . . . not faulty hardware.

if you are a gamer, get a wired keyboard ;)

and/or GET AN XBOX CONTROLLER...every single computer gamer should have one!!! awesome for pretty much every kind of game apart from traditional FPS
 
The word wireless and gaming should never be used in the same sentence. :D

This might be unrelated but i know that if i keep Shift in for a certain amount of time Windows wants to start up some or other Sticky Key Support which usually make the others keys unresponsive unless u OK or Cancel the small window that pops up :)
