i have had a recurring problem with my back lighting freezing up usually it was after my machine went into sleep mode. so i figured it was a windows issue and unplugging and replugging the usb cable back into my mobo .as of tonight its happening after a few second after i plug it back in and the strange thing is the only back lighting that stays on is the (f2 f6 f9 f12 scrlk puase tab w r y i p ] del pagedown 7 9) keys.if anyone knows whats going on and would be kind enough to inform me that would be great. i love this keyboard.
