So I've been having a heck of a time with this keyboard. While playing games, it will "cut out" on me. For example, while playing GTA:SA when the game requires keys to be pressed quickly in a short amount of time, sometimes they won't register. Or when I'm typing it will just cut out momentarily. I'm pretty sure it's not my USB drivers, they are updated. Also, I don't have this problem with any other KB. Could I have a bad model? Anyone else get these problems? Since then, I switched back to my "Windows Office KB" from CompUSA. :rolleyes: . Honestly the best KB I've owned so far. Just wanting some feedback.
 
Try a different usb port I had to do this once the back light LEDs drew to much current off the secondary usb ports so I had to put in the primary usb ports ( on neos usually the ons by the mouse /keyboard sockets. Hope this helps.

Hmm....it comes to mind that...well, pretty much a lot of the time, I'll be typing and then I'll look back and see letters missing and have to re-type them...I thought I was becoming a bad "typ-er"....maybe I was wrong? Maybe it was my Saitek keyboard??? INteresting that you say this...I think we're on to something here.... :confused:
 
with the saitek you cannot press 3 keys at the same time or it will not register...

I play stepmania if you know what that is (DDR for the computer) and use my keyboard lol and its almost impossible

I got the Saitek Gaming Keyboard and i had no problems so far, not in any games like GTA:SA,UT2k4,HL2,DOOM3,FEAR,BF2 etc...
 
I bought a saitek when Best buy started carrying them last year. It didn't play well with my system, had the keys issues you guys have and it wouldn't let me into my bios. The driver was funky , i finally got it working but it was still lame with the missing key strokes, so it went back and I got an logitech key board.

I've got the Saitek Gamer's Keyboard and also the Eclipse.

They both work well. I've had no quality issues.

BUT, I did run into issues with them not being detected on my DFI NF4 Ultra-D motherboard. After I updated to the 6/23 BIOS it solved the problem. My older Asus NF2 A7N8X-X has never had a problem detecting either one.
