I just had to shut down and come back after a few hours and the keyboard would work again for a few hours or, if I was lucky - a few days. You can use an online keyboard tester like en. or Passmark's KeyboardTest to check / confirm this keyboard issue.ĭisconnecting the keyboard, and re-connecting and even restarting the computer didn't help. Characters keep appearing on screen, without pressing any keys and random menus pop open. All of a sudden, the keys stay pressed, even though none of the keys are depressed. The exact same issue plagues this particular keyboard model - from the wireless one to the two wired ones. This worked for a few months, but the same issue cropped up again. They kept it for a few weeks and then handed over a refurbished keyboard. However, this one started acting up in the first year itself. So, I bought the Microsoft Natural Ergonomic 4000 Wired USB keyboard in 2013.
I shifted back to a regular keyboard for a while, but found it very uncomfortable, after having used Microsoft's ergonomic keyboard. I started off with the wireless desktop set, which cost about INR 7,000. For about a decade, I have been using Microsoft's Natural Ergonomic 4000 keyboard.
