Keyboard(s) not working correctly

Hi everyone.

 

Last night I started experiencing some keyboard issues. Yesterday, the spacebar wouldn't work in any application / in Windows and while it seems to have returned now (thankfully), the CTRL and Alt keys have now ceased to function.

 

I know it is software based because I have tried 3 different keyboards and all have had the same problem. I uninstalled the keyboard in device manager and reinstalled it and that didn't make a difference.

 

Sticky keys are disabled.

 

Does anyone know a possible solution to this problem?

CPU: Intel i5 4690k  GPU: Sapphire R9 290 TRI-X OC

Try using other ports maybe you have a bent pin causing duplicating the exact same problem on all the keyboards.

Console optimisations and how they will effect you | The difference between AMD cores and Intel cores | Memory Bus size and how it effects your VRAM usage |
How much vram do you actually need? | APUs and the future of processing | Projects: SO - here

Intel i7 5820l @ with Corsair H110 | 32GB DDR4 RAM @ 1600Mhz | XFX Radeon R9 290 @ 1.2Ghz | Corsair 600Q | Corsair TX650 | Probably too much corsair but meh should have had a Corsair SSD and RAM | 1.3TB HDD Space | Sennheiser HD598 | Beyerdynamic Custom One Pro | Blue Snowball

Tried multiple ports and a ps2 keyboard so it's not the ports.

Try pressing alt+ctrl+fn?

Also do you have numlock etc. turned on those sometimes cause issues like these.
