Title: "Keyboard failure"
Post by: D-MAN on February 16, 2009, 12:42:53 PM: Have you guys ever had a "keyboard failure"? Cuz I started up my computer this morning and it made a horrid buzzing/beeping sound and said keyboard failure. I just wanted to know if this means that just my keyboard has died or if it means that my actual keyboard port has failed. Any usefull information is helpfull! ;D

Note:I am using my sister laptop, ergo I can type this post. And NO I do not have a spare keyboard that I can hook-up to see if it is just the keyboard that has gone bad.

Why the hell do you guys spend that much on a piece of plastic with buttons? Go to some yard sale and get one for $0.25 WAY BETTER DEAL. ;D

What he is trying to say is: "I have a wireless logitec wave (keyboard) and I am using a gaming mouse. I need a new mouse though cuz all the grease from my chips are ruining it."
