    What type of connector is on the keyboard you have? USB or PS2?

    If it's a PS2 make sure the computer is OFF before you plug it in or unplug it otherwise the PS2 connection may be damaged.

      Good point! You might be able to switch to a USB keyboard and have noissues. Sometimes the connections just go bad.

          There are ones with the round looking plug that plug into the back of the pc, then there are ones that areUSB connected and they plug into the USB port.

              Yeah, you may just have a problem at the connection. You can take it back and switch it for a USB one and see if that fixes it. It should if it's a connection issue. It's basically going to plug into one of hte recatngular slots on the front or back of your pc, depending on how it's designed.

                A round plug with one flat side is a PS2 type. If you unplugged it or plugged it back in while the computer was on you may have damaged the interface in the computer. Like TMan said, you may have to use a USB keyboard if that has happened.

                  put the computer back in the box, and send it back to the manufacture...

                  you're just too hard headed to use one..

                  jk,,,

                  sounds like the connection is going bad..

                  the usb route would fix the issue..

                  or as always, it's good to upgrade every 6 months or so.. or that's what i have the wife believing..
