Hello,
I have a couple of problems with my NGS USB keyboard... First, it started typing by itself this charater: ºººº continuously. Sometimes it changes it in ªªªªª. That would be one of the problems.. The other problem appeared just a few hours ago: I just cand type A (capital letter a) combining the Right Shift key with the a key... I noticed that Left Shift key + a is working just fine.. The weird thing is that the only combination that's not working is Right Shift + a.

Anyone? It's really annoying...

Thanks.. :|

Configuration: Windows XP
Firefox 3.0.10

It seems like it is a hard ware problem. But you can try cleaning it out with a can of air duster. You can also try uninstalling the keyboard, then replugging it into your computer to reinstall the driver for it. To do this right click on my computer, then click manage. Next highlight device manager, then expand the keyboard tree. Now right click on your keyboard device and hit uninstall. Then take out the keyboards usb connector, and plug it back in. You should see windows messages pop up saying it is installing the keyboard. Good luck.
