dooma Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Hi, i have thiis weird Problem that my K70 is doing random double strikes on some keys when pushing them. Currently it happens most with i, e and r. The weird Thing is, that it seems to get better for a short period of time when i unplug the keyboard. I tried every port and it always happens and gets worse over time until it double taps eveery tiime. II kepts the typos on purpose to show it to you. The keyboard is just like 2 months old now. Anything i can trry before turning it in to the shop? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerraMax Posted November 11, 2013 Share Posted November 11, 2013 Maybe try if flashing the firmware to newest version could help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dooma Posted November 11, 2013 Author Share Posted November 11, 2013 I already did that. 1.07 if i remember correct. See, its really random. This time no typos at all. And then, some minutes later its happening every keystroke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toasted Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Latest BIOS and drivers for all your devices? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dooma Posted November 12, 2013 Author Share Posted November 12, 2013 All drivers are up to date. Firware for the keybard is also new, did nothing. Bios Flashing is not possible, i have a Packard Bell Vegas 2 Board (OEM Version of ASUS P5NE-SLI) and there are no updates available from Packard Bell (and as the Chip is welded onto the board i wont try to flash the asus original bios.)

Toasted Posted November 12, 2013 Share Posted November 12, 2013 Try the keyboard on another computer and see if the keys still doubles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dooma Posted November 15, 2013 Author Share Posted November 15, 2013 Unfortunately ii have no other computer to test it on. Now the 11 iis double and triple strikiing as well. Thiis is getting really annoyiing. Any other idea what could cause this problem?

Toasted Posted November 16, 2013 Share Posted November 16, 2013 Contact your seller and ask if they can replace the keyboard for you. If not, request an RMA to replace it. You can request an advanced RMA if you need the keyboard. An advanced RMA means Corsair sends you the replacement unit first. When you receive it, you send your faulty keyboard back to them. This requires a valid CC and can only be requested by calling customer service via phone. You can call customer service using Skype by calling their toll-free number.

Toasted Posted February 28, 2015 Share Posted February 28, 2015 Request an RMA to replace the keyboard. Make sure you also upload a picture of the invoice as proof of purchase. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeilTG Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I have had this problem on three k70's. I'm not going to corrrect miistakes in this post to show what keyboard no3 iis doing riight now). All three started with a single key going funny at around the 2 month old mark and then got progressively worse until they were unusable. My cuurrent keyboard was douuble striking orr not regiistering on the first stike - 26 keys on Friday (23 double registering and three not registering on first strike). I then cleaned it, switched USB ports, switched the usb of my mouuse reciiever, reflashed the boiis (again) and the problem seemed to go away for a while...now its back although not on 23 keys just yet but its going down hill pretty fast as you can see by this post. I have used software to test the switches on the keyboard as suggested by a member of this forum, and as I susppected all switches are fine...that is none of them are chattering. The fastest register I get is 12ms and thats trying to get it to register as fast as I humanly can - basically viirbrating my finger on the actuation point. I believe chatter would be under 5ms if I am understanding it right. So my keyboard is doouble registering but the switch testing software says the sswitches are operating fine. To me that leaves firmwarre - specifically the rrebouunce programing. Either that orr some other piece of harrdware on the board has failed...buts it not the swiitches as far as I can tell. I have tested all three of my keyboards on other machines and the problem remains - althouugh the severity can be less on my other computer. At least thats how it appearrs. Anyway, currently debating if I should go for rma no4 or just throw the thing in the bin and be done with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
