Ghosting Does anybody know if this keyboard has anti-ghosting? If so, what kind?

I had this keyboard for a week and it has ghosting problems. Example, you can't press shift + x + arrow keys at the same time. Searching online for "microsoft sidewinder x6 ghosting" you'll find a bunch of articles about this and issues with other key combinations.

I've had the same issue. I started turning off the keyboard when not in use and it reconnects when I turn it back on. That's definitely not the best solution but it has worked ok for me. I don't know if you we're having the same exact issue, mine typically did this after it was dormant a minute or so.

I have the same problem with it. It seems like if you remember to turn the keyboard off after using it, then on again before opening the text editing program of your choice, it tends to sync better. But, that's still not a fix because you have to actually remember to turn it off (which I don't). I sent them an email regarding this issue to see if they had any tips and tricks for it, but never got a response.

Hi. Yeah, it's a pain in the butt. SHARKK responded to my review to say that would fix it in the next release, but I'm not sure if they can do a firmware fix for existing models. I would definitely contact SHARKK support to ask how they intend to fix your problem: either a firmware fix or exchange your keyboard for one that works correctly. They seem to be genuinely concerned about providing good support.UPDATE JAN 22, 2014: I received the new version of the case yesterday from SHARKK. I charged the new KB before using it, then had it on for several hours today. I'm happy to report that it has not lost its connection yet. Much improved. Hi. Yeah, it's a pain in the butt.

I'd like to know if this works on Windows too. This keyboard looks awesome; I just don't need to Google component to it.

Greetings...the keyboard is not faulty. You just have to re-establish the connection more times than not. The keyboard does not automatically kick in.

I have not had any issues with this keyboard and I've had it for about 6 months. My computer usually stays off until I use it, though.

Mine works fine and the keys havent come lose. Check nearby devices that interfere? Check keyboard battery? Exchange/return it?

Our space bar had issues too. We returned it when the seller said they could send out another one. 3 weeks later I hear they are out of stock! When searching the internet, it seems lots of these keyboards have this same defect.

Hi James, I use this for FPS, RPG, and RTS games. I have not noticed any ghosting and am very pleased. Only thing I wish I had was a more fungi stand, but not a big deal for home use.

I face this problem every 6 months or so ( I've had this piece of crap for 2 years now). Fixing it is easy, follow the instructions here: http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Unresponsive+Keyboard+Keys/11932

i am not the seller, but have owned this keyboard in the past. I also lost the use of at least one key and would suggest that you make sure the seller does test and guarantee that all keys are functional.

I finally got my replacement from Logitech. I got a new keyboard but it took 5+ weeks.

I had the same issue, the keyboard never connected again. It's a piece of trash, get your money back if you can

lHi Pamela.. I just received my keyboard for Christmas so I can't really give an honest opinion at this time. I don't believe that they are painted on but if I notice any difference such as fading I will let you know. Ron Aubie
