Otherwise, still try new drivers, and update windows. | ||

Only SC2, and the pattern I am just noticing it is (so far) only the first match I play when I get on SC2... its really strange. My keyboard is pretty clean and drivers are all up to date. I think it is SC2 specific, but cannot figure out why. | ||

It's usually a problem if you are running something in the background. An internet page, a music player. For me, I just do a quick alt - tab and it works perfectly again. Let me know if it solves your problem. | ||

Well, I'v never had any problems with any of my keyboards but the currently keyboard I'm using, "Qsenn DT-35," has given me problems. It happens only sometimes but the keyboard just stops for like 30secs and comes back to normal. For extra information: Whenever I'm typing and the problem occurs, it would spam the letter I was going to type and comes back normal. Edit: I've tried plugging the cord into different USB ports but it doesn't fix. | ||

Things are bound to happen. It sells for 10$ in Korea. i'm sorry if i angered you for any reason but i am new here and i do not know how to start a thread. so i figured thats the fastest way i could get answers. would appreciate if you could help me out. otherwise, it's fine | ||

Don't know if you would want to go through such a hassle for a 10$ keyboard but maybe the wire is breaking contact somewhere. You could try soldering but even then... Just buy a new keyboard. Either go big, or just get a decent cheap keyboard with the same basic feel. The logitech k120 is a good alternative. p.s. One of my friends used to be a former korean progamer and even if he can get a dt-35 for 10$, and he has used it before, he still uses his current cheapo keyboard. Don't spend 30$ on a dt-35 imo. | ||

Does it use special software or drivers of some kind? Uninstall and update/reinstall. If it works fine without them, consider not using them at all. If it has a replaceable wire change it. The only other thing I can think of is SC2 doesn't really get along with some languages. If you use IME set up an English layout and make sure you have it selected on the desktop before starting the game. I've never had it outright stop working for me, however I've had it change basically every setting possible, even things buried in menus with no hotkeys for them. So it wouldn't shock me. | ||
