I just bought it like, 5 days ago, and it was great! after 6 hours of extracurricular activities today and then find that the spacebar doesnt work. Wtf.
anyone know why this would happen? or is this a defect?
oh and i'm returning it to amazon for a replacement. |

| the spacebar doesn't work at all, or is it just limp if it's limp the bar that props it up probably poped out and you can figure out how to get it back in place else defective. |

| Are you sure you didn't accidentally rebind the space bar to something else? You can do this somewhat unintentionally by hitting FN + the right ALT key, and then space - which happen to all be in a line. |

i just press the spacebar alone and it doesnt respond at all, all the other keys do. i tried reinstalling the drivers and replugging the keyboard but it seems that the cherry switch is just dead.
and yea, it bounces up, its not stuck. it just doesnt actuate =(
im using a crappy membrane keyboard right now =( waiting on that new board |

I recently bought it as well, and I haven't had any problems. If you want to get the keyboard again, be sure to ask them while purchasing if you can check it out to make sure it isn't broken. Turn it upside down, shake it a bit, etc.
Hope this helps! |

| Go to your drivers, and reset all macros. If this doesn't solve the problem, the yea, its broken. |

| I've bound stuff by mistake with the on-the-fly macro key a few times, there's a good chance that that's the problem. Otherwise you might have received a lemon and you should RMA, but like someone pointed out, go in the drivers and reset to default. |

I'm waking up this old thread for 2 reasons. Hopefully one of them is good enough :

I just signed up only to say : thanks .You spared me from buying the exact same keyboard. I had this very problem, and thought my keyboard was screwed but you nailled down. Thanks a million
The second reason is that I read a lot of razer-bashing on the web, and while I also experienced a lot of issues with their mice (I only still own one cause I'm left handed) , this keyboard is the bomb. You can't find a better keyboard at this price range and even slightly above, that's a fact. Never had a problem (well except that one )in 1 year +. So don't please don't lead people who come here from google to a wrong way thinking that it's a bad unit. Only problem ? It's noisy ...
Good day to all !
