Weird keyboard issues

[Honnycorns]

Hi, thanks for reading my post.

I recently bought a new keyboard, from the same company except
this new one is wireless, other than that and the stickers on the
back, they look exactly the same.

Its a K350 from Logitech.
logitech.com/en-us/product/wireless-keyboard-k350

I would like to point out that both these keyboards are French Keyboard,
so they have that extra key between (Maj) and (Z)

I dont know the name of my old one sadly, it doesnt have a sticker on it.
I had it since 2006, and it still works.

On this new keyboard, while moving to the left, foward or to the right by
holding A, W or D (Left, Foward, Right) I cannot use some of my keybinded
abilites in World of Warcraft

Here are some exemples:

When holding down (A) I cannot use (shift) + 4
While holding down (W) I cannot use (shift) + `
(the button next to the left of 1).

On my old keyboard, the wired one, I have never had such an issue.
I tried replugging my old keyboard, and I can use those keybind combo
without any problems.

If anyone has any idea about whats causing it or how to fix it, I would
really appreciate. Thanks alot for your help.


For those interested in knowing why I got myself a new keyboard since my old one works fine,
its because my old one has lots of stuff behind the keys, on top of that it smells (stuff behind the keys)
the spacebar sometimes get sticky (stuff behind the keys) I recently changed my room style and the
wires are in the way, there was no drivers for the extra keys around it, so they wouldnt work with Windows 8
and there is stuff behind the keys.

Thanks again for reading my post, I appreciate any help you can give me. Have a nice day/night.

This is called keyboard ghosting. All keyboards have this issue, but there are special gaming keyboards that increase the minimal number of non-functioning key combinations to 5-6 or so. This problem is especially severe for laptop and wireless keyboards due to simplifications in their design. Wired keyboards are better in this regard: I have had the same issue on my laptop keyboard where I could not hold "A" and press "Alt"+"1" simultaneously, but on my new wired keyboard I am yet to encounter anything like this.

Thank you for your quick answer, it is quite unfortunate but I learned something today.
