Question

Posted (edited)

Name: Brett Landgren

Rank: Technical Sergeant

Type of issue: Hardware, Not sure


Brief Description of Issue: So, as most already know I was gifted the laptop I am currently using from our very own GySgt. Wright. It has been a SIGNIFICANT improvement over my former laptop which was basically a large turd of a paperweight. However, in the past few months I have encountered a very frustrating issue. While playing ANY game, but for the sake of the conversation, I'll use DoD:S. While moving in the game (Holding either W,A,S, or D) the key will just stop responding. At first it didn't happen very often, however now it is happening every couple minutes. This is obviously very annoying as in game I will just stop moving for a moment, or worse, I will try to dodge something and the key won't respond at all and I just stand there like an idiot lol. I at first thought I was just relaxing my hand/fingers and releasing the keys, however that isn't the case. There have been times when I will for example be holding down the "W" key and all of a sudden it will just stop responding. I then have to release the key and re-press it in order to begin moving again. I have also noticed that whenever I am typing I will sometimes type and extra W,A,S, or D even though I haven't double typed it.

Brodie,

I am no expert, but it might be worthwhile to look into the status of the retainer clips on each one of those keys. They tend to go out after a while and some are easily and inexpensively replaced. They run for like 5 bucks on ebay just make sure it will fit your model. Also, check out youtube to see how to remove the key and retainer clip.

Good luck brodie!
