3. Decapitalizes.

I really, really, really have to start reading things more closely.

[Jamastiene]

8. sniffa Lives...

Bwahahahahaha. Let's keep his spirit aLive... :pals:

[JohnKleeb]

9. Ive actuaLLY been doing the L thing

but this is too weird. It occurs whenever I do something with the letter A. Weird eh?

[Jamastiene]

11. Aaaahhh...

A is cLose to caps Lock, isn't it. Try pushing them down one at the time untiL they quit sticking. Maybe that'LL work.

[JohnKleeb]

12. thats what Ive been doing and hey!

its working and it will probably be only real brief.

[Jamastiene]

14. My controL key on my oLd computer,

was aLways sticking and causing me to open every fiLe in a foLder or cLick on every Link on a page, untiL I jiggLed it and messed with it a Little bit.

[JohnKleeb]

16. ya know my key does look stuck

[Jamastiene]

27. I wouLd heLp ya figure out how to take a keyboard apart

and cLean it, but I haven't tried it yet myself. I'm sure it isn't that hard. I'd make sure it was dry before I hooked it back up to the computer though. ;D

[JohnKleeb]

30. I am just gonna buy a new one

this one is dirty anywAY.

[KitchenWitch]

24. Another thing to try

Vaccuum your keyboard. It is unbelievable how much stuff can get in there and cause keys to stick, etc.

[JohnKleeb]

26. REBOOTING DIDNT WORK

GODDAM this is weird.

[leftofthedial]

13. "a" is next to caps lock

[JohnKleeb]

15. uhh I know I am not pressing caps lock

I watched my fingers.

[leftofthedial]

19. weLL just be carefuL then

mister kLeeb

that's aLL i can teLL you

[JohnKleeb]

21. thANK YOU, GODDamnit this sucks

[leftofthedial]

22. stort a new threod entitled "o is the new a"

[uppityperson]

17. How long can you type without using the letter "A"?

or-how much typing is possible without using the letter mentioned prior to now?

[JohnKleeb]

18. i dont know

its weird is All, AND THERE WE GOT agAIN.

[JohnKleeb]

20. its officAL i NEED a new keyboARD

[uppityperson]

23. Pry off the "A" and caps lock keys, clean

fuzz and stuff gets in the keyboard and migrates to the edges. Using forced air forces the fuz further into the corners. Pry off the keys and clean it out. Or quit using "a"

[JohnKleeb]

25. you meAN WITH THINGS LIKE WINDEX?

MY KEYBOard does APPeAR TO BE PRETTY DIRTY, i May get a NEW ONE.

[uppityperson]

28. Not quite.

It doesn't matter if the tops of the keys have crap on them. Well, it does but that's another problem. It is the fuzz and debris that falls into the keyboard that gets stuck under the keys and messes with the mechanical functioning. So, get the fuzz out from under the keys. There may be so much fuzs that it spans the area between the 2 keys so you press both (underneath) when you press 1 ( on top).

Or you can deactivate "caps lock" through control panel/keyboard menu.

My son says press A twice then backspace each time you use an A.

IF you use Windex, unplug the keyboard first.

[JohnKleeb]

29. thanks I think I'll just get a new keyboard

because this is anooying.

[uppityperson]

31. They pry off the keys and clean it, if you break it so what

it doesn't work anyway.

[JohnKleeb]

32. pry open the keys with whAT?

[uppityperson]

33. needlenosed pliers, long roach clip (suture thingy), screwdriver, knife

I've rubbed a piece of cardboard around the edges off the edge keys and come out with all sorts of fuzz.

[JohnKleeb]

34. ok I'll check out the gARage

[uppityperson]

36. Can you type, A?

I went out to pull some berry bushes and am back, so???

[JohnKleeb]

37. I had my mom pick up a new keyboard on her way back from what ever she was

doing

[uppityperson]

38. Good for her and good for you

Moms are good to have. Even if they annoy you by there mere existence, they are good to have. My son just turned 17. My mom has been dead 14 yrs. I wish I could apologize to her for being and arrogant little know-it-all shit at 16/17/18. Oh well. Glad you can type again.

[ghostsofgiants]

35. I feel your pain

I wasted shit over my keyboard last week and now my Print Screen and right arrow keys don't work.
