Keyboard types random things


Recommended Posts

I am using a keyboard made by micro innovations, and when I type a combination of h,o, or u it types ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooopowerpnt every time. If I hold down h, o, and u, it just types powerpnt. This is annoying as when I type quickly, I sometimes hit o and u in quick succession such that the o is still down when the u is pressed. This causes the long string of o's followed by powerpnt to be typed. Is this a driver issue or a setting within windows xp? Any help would be greatly appreciated. And I realize that this happening consistently does not qualify it to be random, I just didn't know what the title should be :p

Hello,

Is this a wireless keyboard or a wired one? If the former, try replacing its batteries. If the latter, what sort of connection (AT, PS/2, USB, et cetera)?

Some keyboards come with software that allows you to reprogram what is output when a key is pressed, or you can accomplish the same thing with a program like Autohotkey. It could be that the software which controls the keyboard needs to be reset (or disabled).
