View Full Version : Keyboard Issues ("Sticky Keys") after SP2 Upgrade

After upgrading to SP2, I've noticed a few strange
occurances with my keyboard:

1. Pressing the shift key and the following keys causes
my clipboard to paste it's contents :<>+

2. Pressing the numbers 5 or 6 while in the calculator
causes an endless stream of digits to flood the program,
and I can only back out by shutting the calculator down.

3. Sometimes I cannot highlight text by dragging with the
mouse.

4. Pressing the arrow keys left or right works, but I
have to hit it 100 times to move 100 spaces (can't hold
down).

This is a Compaq laptop. Using a USB keyboard produces
the same results.

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I have an HP Pavilion laptop and have a similar problem to the one below: ctrl+v pastes the content of the clipboard. annoying!
I have a pS2 keyboard with multimedia and internet extra buttons, I connect it to the laptop with a PS2-USB converter. The "normal" keyboard works fine (except the problem above), but the internet and multimedia buttons do not work at all. i have installed the driver (several times), it is an ELEMENTS keyboard - nothing.
Can you please help mee?

Thanks so much!
