  1. Keys on keyboard randomly mess up.


    Sometimes when i'm playing a game or using a program, my keyboard randomly messes up keys. For an example, when I push D it thinks i'm pushing ALT. I have tried using an on-screen keyboard but it still happens. Any fixes?


    I am using a Razor blackwidow ultimate keyboard. (EDIT: I forgot to mention the same happens with my mouse. for an example: when i left click it right clicks etc.)

    :)
