When too many keys are pushed on the keyboard, it locks up, and the computer makes a beeping noise.
Is there a way I can prevent this? It's extremely frustrating when playing computer games.
Every keyboard has a limit to how many keys it can read at once. Some keyboards are able to read more when attached to USB rather than PS/2. Most of the time most keyboards don't read more than 3 keys at once regardless of connection.
The beep you hear is your computer telling you that you are pressing too many keys at once.
