RE: Keyboard Craziness
So say you're typing "The cat eats fish & chips", it may come out as "The cat & chipseats fish"?
I can think of 3 hardware-related situations where this could possibly happen:
a)Your keyboard has gone mad, or possibly you haven't set your keyboard correctly in the control panel, especially if you type in another languge.
b)you're using a laptop and the touchpad is extremely sensitive, it picks up the heat from your hand even when you're not touching it.
OR
You're using an optical/wireless mouse on any computer and that's causing trouble. You can tell cos the mouse cursor should be in the area where your typing has skipped to.
c)you have a device plugged in that is interfering, such as a joystick. I have a usb drum kit, and when I was playing Need for Speed it would cause havoc (XP recognises it as a joystick)
