    Strange keyboard issue

    Don't have high hopes in regards to this, but figured I might aswell try..

    [​IMG]

    My keyboard started having a problem where 2 keys don't work, except when I press shift + those keys.

    I've tried:
    - Using this keyboard on another computer (which worked)
    - Using another keyboard on my computer (same issue)
    - Fix keyboard issues, the Windows option (which obviously didn't work)
    - Cleaning the keyboard/the keys
    - Using different USB ports
    - Updating the BIOS
    - Messing with the filter keys (turning on/off etc)
    - Removing keyboard driver and reinstalling it again

    I believe it has to do with Discord, as I used Shift + those keys as buttons to mute/unmute my mic/sound, but after I've disabled those, it didn't fix the issue either.

    Anything else I can try?

    Sounds like a motherboard issue since both keyboards aren't working on your computer and they both work for the other.

    Try doing a BIOS update for your computer and see if that fixes the issue.

    Chances are it is something related to the Motherboard, i'd say about 95% certain if all the above didn't work.
    Do you have a second pc/laptop perhaps?

    Yeah you can make a backup and do a fresh install, if that doesn't fix it, I would say for 99.99% certain it is ur motherboard, in which case problems may start to rack up :(

    Try making a new user account on your PC and see if that fixes it. If it does, then you'll know there's some software issue causing it.
