I've this keyboard for a little over a year now, and it just started acting up recently.

It's gotten HORRIBLE at this point, so I'm either gonna have to buy a new one or figure out how to fix is ASAP.

Basically, at random times, when I type a lot of the keys will be missed, and then a random key that I pressed will basically repeat itself as if it were being held down.

For example, if I were to type "answer" it would end up looking like "aaaaaaaaaaa" or "ansssssssss". This happens with ALL keys- including Backspace. That's what it does half the time. The other half of the time, I can't even get most of my keys to type. It's acting completely haunted. I don't have another keyboard to try to make sure it's not a system problem, which I'd DREAD since my warranty is LONG gone on this PC.

Has anyone else heard of this before?

And before it's mentioned, sticky keys is NOT on, nor is any other accessibility feature, and the keyboard has no visible problem. I even opened it up to see if there was anything lose or something. Nothing appears wrong.

What could this be?

The keyboard is a Microsoft Digital Media Pro keyboard.

(Figures it doesn't act up when I'm typing this...)
