Troll mode or not... sadly your right....IMO

I've run 8.1 in a VM for 2 months now and I always end up mashing the keyboard and cursing at the monitor..... It's ... soooooooooooooooooooo frustrating....

:cool:
 
GOVerlay, I'm using it with a little LCD screen I got off a well known auction site which ties into AIDA64 and Rivatuner server to dish up stats onto my desktop, tons of other features other than temps such as FPS, who's talking in teamspeak etc :)

Most of the time, your keyboard works as intended. The rest of the time, you want to throw it out of a window. Instead of defenestrating your keyboard, try diagnosing its problems with Switch Hitter.
This application allows you to detect problems like ghosting, where multiple keys pressed at the same time aren’t recognised, or chatter, where pressing a key once is recognised as multiple key presses. Switch Hitter can also detect the keyboard layout you have selected and which character codes a particular keystroke combination is sending. This is very handy if you’re trying to figure out whether your hardware is broken, or if there’s something wrong with your settings.
