I don't know were to put this so ill put it in here.
I have been having troubles with my keyboard, because it randomly locks up :frown:. When it does this I can't use it at all and I have to restart my computer. I have switched keyboards and it still happened with the new one. I have tryed a different port and it still happens. And im sick of it, and im getting desperate. I don't know if its a virus or just some program I have. And I know it isn't broken because my "Num Lock" light on the keyboard is light up, which I would think indicates that the keyboard is connected to the computer. Please if you know how to fix this or have a slight idea tell me. THNX

Open task manager and check your CPU usage ( control/alt/delete). There's probably nothing wrong with your keyboard at all. What are the spec of your machine? Do you you have a current spyware zapper running? Do you have a bunch of unnecessary processes/applications running in the background? When your computer hits the limits of its hardware it will come to a screeching halt.

No, i don't usually have anything running in the backround. When this happens, im away from the computer for about 1-2 hours and when i get back to it, the keyboard isnt responding. And when I say away from the computer, then the only thing running would be the screen savor if that.

Let me guess...it's a USB keyboard...right?
Try Disabling power saving on your USB ports.
