I have a standard internet logitech keyboard, and when i try to use certain keys when playing games IE ( W+S and then trying to press q ) the computer beeps ...i was wondering if this is a keyboard problem ...mobo....xp thing that I could turn off somehow ? ....any input would be welcomed
If the keys are not mapped to an action within the game you may get beeps. I have also come across complaints on this and other boards concerning Logitech products running on XP systems. Aside from the game in question do you experience any other issues with your keyboard?
