K70 Number Key Problem

[sevril]

The top row of numbers on my K70 have started to display very weird behavior.

 

For example, if I press "1", I get:

 

1234567890-=567890-45678907890-=67890-=

 

If I press "2" I get:

 

234567890-9-=890-=67890-=567890-

 

If I press "3" I get:

 

456789-=7890-=-=9-=89-=

 

and so on.

 

If I press the lighting button, the number keys will display different types of behavior, depending on which lighting level I'm at. On some lighting levels, pressing a number key will just do something like repeat the tilde forever.

 

This is just in regard to the top row of numbers. Keypad numbers are fine.

 

The keyboard is about a month old. Worked fine up until today. Now, full disclosure: I pressed as many keys as possible to show off its anti-ghosting ability to a friend, and this behavior showed up almost immediately after.

 

Any thoughts?

Move the BIOS switch to a different polling rate and BIOS mode. Do the numbers still repeat?

Try the keyboard on another computer as well and a different USB port.

^If it still behaves the same after trying Toasted's suggestion, it will need to be replaced under the 2 year warranty

Thanks for the suggestions. I had tried them all last night to no avail. Even plugged it into both my laptops and the behavior was the same.

 

Oddly, I came home from work today, and it's no longer exhibiting this behavior. Fingers crossed that whatever the issue was, it's fixed itself. :)
