Hi.I've got a problem with my new keyboard(2 months old) Microsoft Comfort Curve 3000.
When I play any game,W and sometimes Space keys get stuck,and I have to press them again to revert them back to normal,but then they will get stuck again and so on.The thing is that in any other circumstances when I type,like browsing,notepad,word etc etc,none of the keys get stuck no matter what I do.I've also connected my tablet wirelessly as a keyboard for my PC and tried playing a gaming,and it didn't get stuck at all.Provided that the keyboard gets stuck only when playing games,I don't think that the keyboard it's broken.Also,I tried to change the USB ports with every other one i've got,but with no result.
I reinstalled my windows,Scanned it with Malawarebytes in Safe Mode and so on,but with no success.What could be the problem???
It is getting very annoying,please answer fast.Thank you!
UPDATE:My keyboard has a function that turns off Num lock Scroll lock and Caps lock lights after 5 seconds of no use,and then instantly turn them back on when I press any key on the keyboard.Well,I noticed that in games,keys get stuck only after long press,when the status lights of Caps Num etc go off,so... If I would be able to disable this function,maybe the problem will be solved,the question is.. how do I do this?
UPDATE 2 : Problem solved.It could also be the solution for the ones who have the same issue,I found out that,at least in my case,the problem was caused by the USB autosusped feature ( windows turns off the devices to save power) So here's the solution:
Go to Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Devices and Printers
Right click on your USB Keyboard, go to Properties, then the Hardware tab.
Highlight USB Input Device (this is the part that doesn't show up under Device Manager) and click on Properties. Click on Change settings.
Go to the Power Management tab and uncheck 'Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power'
