Ok, so I've been having a rather strange issue with my microsoft wireless desktop lately (the natural keyboard/explorer 2.0 combo). In games which involve holding down a mouse button and pressing a key or viceversa when I push the key/button, the mouse registers the button being released.
Let me explain a little better with an example: in arx fatalis when you hold down ctrl to go into spell casting mode, it becomes very difficult to correctly draw the runes, as the mouse button is "released" at irregular intervals. It doesn't matter if I move it fast or slow, and sometimes it lets me get away with it. But it's next to impossible to get more than 4 runes entered. On the FPS side, in far cry the weapon zoom (right mouse) is released when the move forward key is pressed.
See what I mean?
So far I've reinstalled/upgraded all drivers (video, sound, mb, mouse, keyboard, etc...), tried moving the receiver all around, and replaced the batteries. Pretty much everything short of a windows reinstall. Soooo, wth? I'm really out of ideas and I don't want to return it (not even sure if the warranty is still valid). Anyone have this (or a similar) issue? I remember the days of the computer making a godawful noise if you pushed too many keys, could this be related (I would think that one key and one mouse press isn't too much...)?
Thanks for any help in advance!
