Title: Weird roll over problem.
Post by: sam113101 on Wed, 22 December 2010, 23:21:42

If I press my two shifts and the w key, it works. If I press my two shifts and the q key, it does NOT work. It happens with few random keys. I sniffed with wireshark to figure out I still receive a ErrorRollOver.

Okay, my board isn't NKRO, it's a unicomp spacesaver. But I should be able to do it too, no*? It's two modifiers and only one normal key. I don't get it. It's the same with other keyboards too, though not with the same keys. Depends of the matrix I'd say.

Yep, it's all the matrix.

Gaming optimized keyboards look like the Tokyo Subway system. A G15.

I recommend you don't type with both shift keys held down.  It's very inefficient.

Yep, only reason to do it as I see is for some old school co-op pc-games... Or is there others? Still show just how cheap keyboards are...
