keybaord seem to act up?

orze

ive had tthhis keyboard for a vary long time.

itts a razer black widow utimate

latly after moving to this new pc i notticed wann i ttype i get allot of double and triple letters being typed.

to explain

if ill press "H" if i wont take my finger off by the milisecond i pressed it. it will type HHHHHH

innsted of what im used to with press a few miliseconds of pause and then a rettype it seems to be typing the next letter immediately without thhat pauses so unless i remove my finger a milisecond after typing it will write a string of that latter

so wan i write senttences i get wierd double lettters....im sure ill miss a few in this topic so the point will be proven.

if be honnest got no other keyboard tto chack but the problem startted with this pc

Clean the keyboard.

 

There's also a setting in Windows to adjust the delay between a keystroke and repeating the key press, for when a user holds down a key. You might be able to adjust this setting to reduce some of the repeated key strokes. Search "Keyboard" in the start menu and open the Keyboard settings and increase the "Repeat delay" slider.

Probably. To test remove the housing to expose the PCB. On the back of the PCB use something metal to jump the pins of the faulty switch. If it behaves normal then the switch itself is the problem. Replace it. This is by far the most likely scenario.

 

If it does the same thing then it could be a partially broken PCB trace, bad diode or something wrong with the controller chip.

 

Doides can be replaced almost as easily as a switch, broken traces can be jumped with a small wire. A broken contoler can be replaced but it's both difficult to get the part and to resolder the new one on. Not worth it at that point.
