  1. Alt and win and control keys stuck


    So it has happened tonight, and it happened about a week ago. Keyboard functionality dies, and when i turn on the OSK, the win, alt, ctrl keys are all shown as being pressed, even when the keyboard is unplugged. Sometimes after a reboot the aforementioned keys will work like toggles, sometimes they will just stay stuck, which is more frequent. Other keys on the keyboard dont work, and even trying to use the OSK to type doesn't work.

    Anyone having something similar?
