I had a problem similar to this last summer. My keyboard got confused, and I actually went all the way to reinstalling the operating system before I figured out what was going on, and then I felt really stupid. It turned out there's a logic board in the keyboard that got confused. If you turn the power off to the keyboard, it will reset itself. I forgot that my keyboard was plugged into a powered USB hub, so doing things like shutting down the computer didn't reset the keyboard. Once I unplugged the keyboard and then plugged it back in, everything was fine. -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
