    I was surprised to read in another thread that someone is experiencing a "key limit" issue on a D900C while gaming:

    http://forum.notebookreview.com/showthread.php?t=155845

    The issue is only one key can be processed at a time. If a key is held, pressing a second key will not register.

    This seems crazy to me since a gaming machine should support many simultaneous key presses.

    I have no doubts that the poster is experiencing the problem -- I just want to see if others are experiencing this too. If it is a wide spread problem then let's talk about how to fix it :).

    I have to believe others would be upset at this behavior. Feedback from D900C owners greatly appreciated!

    I can only say I haven't had this problem, but them again playing BF2142, HL2, FEAR etc I don't try to hit 20+ keys at a time.

    thats sounds strange... could be a loose keyboard cable.

    remove the keyboard and re-seat the cable for it.

    Or the keyboard needs to get its firmware updated or re-flashed.
