    ok, i have a problem with my keyboard

    just about 30mins ago my wireless medion keyboard got really weak or something, for example, i cannot press two buttons at the same time, it doesnt work, and this is really important as i need the shift key to type capital letters so i dont have to turn on caps lock, type the letter, turn off caps lock

    it is also really weak in the sense that it misses out on letters and spaces sometimes, which is very annoying

    now, i tried everything, restarting system, rechaneling the keyboard and the receiver, and i put the receiver right beside the keyboard, no luck

    but now i cannot do any puncuation, as they all require shift to be pressed, and there is no way around it unless i go to microsoft word and insert the symbols, and then copy and paste them [but i cannot use ctrl and c and the same time]

    note that i am using windows xp home edition sp2, and the keyboard came with the computer which was bought in november 2005, so they are new

    can anyone help me, because this is very annoying, and espicially since i program :eek: how am i going to do the curly brace and the brackets

    It is now working thank god!!

    It wasn't the batteries though, I did try and change them, but no luck, so I put the old ones back in (that was about 15mins ago)

    But now, it just started working, and I am not sure why :confused:

    But I am not complaining now anyway
