I love the favorites that was the only good thing about the Digital Media Pro keyboard I was previously using. And they're more logically organized into three distinct areas. Only the essentials (favorites, home/search/mail, volume, calc) are present.
Now that I own one, I'm not excited any more. I was plenty excited when I saw Microsoft was releasing a new non-mangled ergonomic keyboard - the Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000. If the keyboard guarantee continues or exists at all, -will check now- I might send it to the service to get the groundings right.Keyboarding: Microsoft Natural Ergonomic 4000 I flipped the keyboard vertically and whacked it in the back the keyboard was in a 45 degrees crooked position, a lot of dirt came out too, but i don't think that the problem was the dirt, it's possibly what this Information, so had to go the unorthodox way. Although it seems like the most basic and old-school idea to whack the keyboard, it actually worked in my case. I had the same problem with the Comfort Curve Keyboard 2000 v1.0 with the "c" key, and as you can see I can currently type the key "c". So I'll have to opn her up as soon as I stop being lazy. In my experience doing this works forĪbout a week to two weeks before it acts up again. Now give it a whack on the back of the keyboard. Hold the keyaboard in the air by one of the sides.
However, there is an unorthodox solution that works just as well, although I doubt it'll work forever. (Some knowledge of electronics required as in where to measure what etc.) THe orthodox solution for the adventurous is to open up the keyboard and ensure the grounding on all the keys are correct. It seems this is cause by build up of static in the keyboard. It started on a 8 day old Comfort Curve 2000. You should return it for a refund/replacement. If none of this works, in particular the direct activation of the actuation pad, then this points to a hardware fault. If it now works, then you might have had a corrupted driver.

Try rolling back to the standard MS driver that came with Windows. Carefully examine the key, and its location in the keyboard, to see if there is any obvious reason for The keyboard, and we can turn our attention to a stuck key, or one that cannot be depressed sufficiently to activate the switch under the actuation pad.
With a suitable implement, carefully tap the pad to see if it works. Prise the key off carefully and you should see the actuation pad that the key acts upon.
Notepad so that you can see the results of the following. The first thing to check is whether the key itself is actually operating. Is the N key not responsive in both lower and upper case?Īs the keyboard is brand new, it certainly shouldn't have developed this sort of fault, and I would consider returning it for a replacement.
