My Logitech G15 keyboard isn't working right. Some of the keys aren't functioning.

I have two keyboards attacked to the computer to demonstrate:

abcdghijklmnopqrstvwxyz

as you can see, there are a few letters missing from the alphabet above. Other keys don't work either like the = key.

What was the last thing you did with it when it was working? Reinstall the operating system, something like that?

In light of your other recent problems, have you considered a problem with the motherboard? Something failing?

better not be the motherboard failing! The thing's just over a year old!

Nah, I think it's just shoddy workmanship by Logitech and having enough of AVG letting sh*t through.

Other than that, it runs like a well-oiled machine.

My brothers asus failed after a year. It crunched a hard drive, and in my efforts to repair the system the dvd started failing as well. I thought it was just a head crashed hard drive until that point. Something else started acting up too, but i dont recall what. We went and got a new mobo.

If it is not wireless, outside of trying a can of airspray, I would just use the one that works.

Geez. If the keyboard doesn't work, get another one.

Another suggest would be to look for an IBM keyboard from the mid-late 90's, or if you like the old school mechanical keyboards, look for an old IBM PS/2 Keyboard from the late 80's, either way, you're guaranteed to have a tough keyboard that you will not have problems with, and they are TOUGH!
