I am one of these people. I tried the patch and it did improve the stability.
I tried to improve it with various filters, but came to the conclusion that I
needed to see the raw data and then run various filters in excel to compare
properly.
I had the button-x5.c (attached) write the 1st 100 key presses after pressing
select. I got some data out, but then I damaged my harddrive and am waiting to
repair it.
Cheers

ps I think I attached the right version, It was a while ago
pps
This is the vbs script I use to convert the data from hex to a csv.
Set objArgs = WScript.Arguments REM- Drag and drop file onto VBS
rem- WScript.Echo objArgs(0)
Const adTypeBinary = 1
'Create Stream object
Dim BinaryStream
Set BinaryStream = CreateObject("ADODB.Stream")
'Specify stream type - we want To get binary data.
BinaryStream.Type = adTypeBinary
'Open the stream
BinaryStream.Open
'Load the file data from disk To stream object
BinaryStream.LoadFromFile objArgs(0)
'Open the stream And get binary data from the object
ReadBinaryFile = BinaryStream.Read
Dim cl1, cl2, cl3, pl1, pl2, pl3, pl4, Num_Pixels_To_Process
Dim L
cl1 = 1
cl2 = 1
cl3 = 1
Num_Pixels_To_Process = 256
L = LenB(ReadBinaryFile )
Do While cl1<=L
pl4 = (Int(AscB(MidB(ReadBinaryFile ,cl1,1))))
rem msgbox (Int(AscB(MidB(ReadBinaryFile ,cl1,1)))) & " and " &
(Int(AscB(MidB(ReadBinaryFile ,cl1 +1 ,1)))) & " = " & pl4
pl3 = pl3 & pl4 & ", " & vbNewLine
'Messagebox after Num_Pixels_To_Process pixels
'If cl1 >= (Num_Pixels_To_Process*2) Then
' msgbox "Total Pixels =" & cl1/2 & vbNewLine & "First few:" & vbNewLine
& MidB(pl3, 1, 256)
' L = 0
'End If
cl1 = cl1 + 1
Loop
dim filesys, demofile, txtstream
set filesys = CreateObject ("Scripting.FileSystemObject")
set demofile = filesys.CreateTextFile (objArgs(0) & ".csv", true)
set demofile = filesys.GetFile(objArgs(0) & ".csv")
set txtstream = demofile.OpenAsTextStream (2, -2)
txtstream.Write pl3
