Keyboard input gone VERY wrong

[hughtrimble]

I'm also using a K70 ..and last wweek my K/B went to US input for some reason..so put it back to UK...but now my "ww" is double typing when on lowwer case lol

Have you taken off the key cap and had a butchers underneath and given it a clean? Might be some gunk causing it to double type?

I feel like testing the app again with a junker keyboard! But currently, the junker is the only thing that's enabling me to type, so I'll steer clear of that for a while.

The app wouldn't have any effect on your junker keyboard cause that keyboard is nice and simple with no firmware to corrupt and suchlike.

No other reports of the app doing anything similar, and the K70 replacement is working just fine with it.

How old is it? Might be able to RMA if you've tried other things such as reinstalling the software etc. (though I'm not sure if it would help given the double tap nature of it!)

So I turned on the backlighting today for the first time, and there's a faulty LED under the 9 on the number pad...it's dimmer than other keys on the lowest setting and sometimes flickers.

Great!
