    So I was playing one of those games where it's all button-mashing type of thing, re-casting spells and attacks etc. when suddenly my keyboard just locked up for no reason at all. I couldn't move or do anything, it just died on me for no reason. I exited the game and restarted and thankfully everything back to normal again, but is there a reason why my keyboard would suddenly become unresponsive in any way? Driver problem?
