    why are my arrow keys not constantly putting in inputs?


    Hi, so I play games on my laptop, and I noticed when I was playing games that the arrow keys ↑,↓,→, and ← that the keys would stop having inputs every 1-2 seconds. I play games a LOT, so this is a big problem for me. Nothing else is broken, so what's going on??

    down arrow key stopped working

    My razor lycosa down arrow key decided to not respond at some point today. The other ones work and so does the numpad arrow if i turn off the numlock. Sounds like its just broken and im screwed, but any suggestions?

    Computer has left arrow key constantly 'held down'

    When I use the laptop, whenever a situation occurs where the left arrow key would have an action, the computer seems to have this key held down.

    To explain (that wasn't very clear), if I'm on Facebook photo viewer, the arrow keys can be used to move to the next or previous photo. However, it feels as if the left arrow key is constantly down, as the viewer scrolls through all the photos. Another example
    is that in any text field, the cursor runs through the text to the end.

    This basically makes any text input impossible as I cannot go back to correct things.

    This doesn't happen in perhaps the first few minutes of the laptop turning on, which suggests to me that it is software-related rather than hardware. Also, I have tried switching to USB keyboard and the problem still occurs.

    I am running Windows 10 on a Dell Ispiron15.

    arrow key problem

    Hi,

    Your concern with the arrow keys can be due to the configuration of either the keyboard and/or the computer. To better understand your concern, we'd like to know the following:

    • If the specified device is a desktop or a laptop.
    • The make and model of the keyboard that you're using.
    • If you've tried using a different keyboard.
    • If you've installed programs that can bind keyboard keys.
    • The version and build of Windows 10 that you're using on your device. To check this, you can perform the steps posted on this

      link      .

    We look forward to your response.
