I experienced that the 'P' key did not work anymore after changing the sound driver or installing this power management program. some other keys were without function either: '0', ESC, backspace.

i tried to downgrade to the bootcamp audio driver (which lacks of headphone support...) and also deinstalled the powermanagement.

what I really found curious was that those keys did not work in OSX either!!!

any ideas what to do???

cheers,

RS

Hi. I had EXACTLY the same problem. Seemed to be a set of keys in the same column. The problem is that your keyboard is faulty, just a coincidence about the software you were installing. I bought a new one and it works perfectly again. They aren't that expensive but you could get it replaced if it is under warranty.

thanks for your reply... so you mean that some software installation has made the errors appear?! and now it is definitely broken?

strange things indeed...

today I was again trying to deinstall the audio driver to make my external speakers work. the last time it worked, this time low volume again...

though I am still thinking this cute aluminum beauty is worth all the mess :-)

cheers.
