Title: 3nt3r!!!1
Post by: Raa on November 15, 2007, 10:10:28 pm
My enter/return button isn't working. Is there any simple reason for this, and can I fix it easily? This isn't a laptop, so I can switch to an older keyboard, but this is the sparkle pwn keyboard of all timez. It has shiny blue light up buttons and I wuv it. You must understand... My keyboard is at stake here. If some kind soul could step out and help, then I would greatly appreciate it, as well as my sparkle pwn keyboard. Picture: http://www.tech2.com/media/images/img_2582_logitech_g15.jpg (http://www.tech2.com/media/images/img_2582_logitech_g15.jpg) Also, I've got Windows. I don't know if there's something wrong with the computer or the keyboard, but it's probably the keyboard. Without the enter button, it's impossible to play PlaneShift because it requires that button to speak. Thanks.

How dare it! :o

Best bet, don't eat at the keyboard. :P

Edit: By the way, you know you have two enter buttons, right? :P

Bite it's torso and give it a disease (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzsRddk_cb0).

I usually fix mine with a scientifically applied measurement of beating. Or I take the key out and see what's keeping it from connecting.

LOL!!!!!

This only proves my point of all enkidukai being horny pervs ;D . Ahem, anyways.. Ectoplasmic you say? Well, its possible a ghost is inside your keyboard, a ghost of a stray dustmite that got crushed when you were pressing the enter key to talk in ps.... And is seeking revenge by keeping you from hitting the enter key ever again!

No, this started today before I even tried to play PS. And that was the number pad enter key you saw on that message above.

So, you take out the key, you notice ectoplasm and you leave it there? Try seeing if any other key has ectoplasm as well. If not, kill the ectoplasm with a linoleum knife! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jzsRddk_cb0). I've had lots of keyboards up until today, mainly because I'm very demanding (my keyboard must be white, old, able to survive Michael Tyson and have no additional keys.) It usually works to blow out the dirt that gets into that hole where the protuberant part of the key enters, or to make sure every part in that set is connecting well. Sometimes it kills the keyboard. But science demands sacrifice.

SEEEEEEERIOUSLY. Help. A cyborg could do better than this.

A cyborg could also use the other enter button.

Random quick google on your keyboard came up with some forum where someone was suggesting a fix for a busted return key. ---> http://comms.planetsidesyndicate.com/showthread.php?p=50071 (http://comms.planetsidesyndicate.com/showthread.php?p=50071) I have no idea who this person is or really even what their forum is about so, take their advice at your own risk I guess. :P If this person is right though, maybe it has nothing to do with the key "ectoplasm" and it's just a driver issue.

I now, officially hate you...


And from the start I figured it was your own fault... Too much porn, or just pressing the button too much.


Unlike Parallo I am no gentleman, so allow me to excercise my right...


Retard!
