Question

*** IS WRONG WITH MY COMPUTER!!

Sep 15, 2015 6:08AM PDT

Ffs, ive been dealing with this issue for months, after a bit i just have up and left it for months, but i recently put it into a repair shop and they couldnt even find the stuff i said was wrong. So im trying these forums.

So what happens is my space bar when pressed types "M-;[" or something similar, when i select a desktop icon it will highlight a bunch of other icons that are near the one i selected. When i click the internet tab i have up it will open a new one instead of opening the current 1.

im running windows 7 and using a razer death stalker and a razer death adder, though i have used a different keyboard and mouse and the problem persists, im about to ******* smash the thing.

Go to Device Manager & delete keyboard driver, then reboot.

While in Device Manager look for any entry with ? or ! next to it, indicating a need to get the right driver. Also go to an administrator command prompt and issue the following command: SFC /scannow. Reboot and download MalwareBytes, get it up to date, and do a scan.

Good luck.

You couldn't replicate the issue to a shop?
