Hi all,
I am having a rather random and very annoying issue. After my system is running for a some time (appears to happen randomly), it acts as if some keys on the keyboard are being held down. Specifically the left and right keys, sometimes backspace, maybe more?
I can't figure out what could cause it. The system has been working without problems for a number of months now. This just happened recently. When I unplug the USB keyboard, the problem still persists. I have run MS Security essentials and AVG free with out any problems found.
I have found if I end the largest SVCHost.exe, the problem stops for a little bit. The problem does not appear in safe mode, from what I've found. A restart will fix the problem, until it happens again.
When I run a script recorder to see which keys are being pressed, it is rather rapid, looks like someone is mashing the numpad like hitting 116 116 116 116 116 over and over along with some other keys.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
EDIT: After doing some problem solving, I have found when I stop the service "hidserv" (Human Interface Device Access) the problem stops. This runs within the svchost.exe I mentioned early. Why is it giving me trouble?
