    On my 2090 whenever i hold the down or up arrows to scroll through a webpage it will not continue, it will stop scrolling and this happens all of the time. Also when i'm using itunes and I use fn to adjust the volume it will keep starting and stopping the song without changing the volume. The fn way of changing volume acts weird like that other times too... any suggestions as to why??
    Thanks

    Have you done the usual check for viruses/spyware? Try opening the task manager (crtl+shift+esc) and seeing if any processes are eating up cpu cycles when you change the volume. Also check to see that you're not on power saver mode (limits the cpu clock to save power) when this happens.

    @goke: I go to the same school as you. 50MB/s downstream ftw!

    Some programs just don`t behave as they should.
    First off, try for example Winamp, listen to a song and try the volume keys and see if they work.
    1) if they do, then the problem is in the middle with iTunes not reading the commands properly or your keyboard's Fn keys doing something else specifically for iTunes.
    2) if they don`t work,it might be a different problem and then you need a keyboard firmware,one that you might request from your supplier.
