are you sure your keys get stuck, maybe you have just missconfigured your buttons? try different key combinations. and if you have new keyboard make sure it has right drivers installed. also try rebooting your computer and make sure there is no other progs running at the same time, those might fuck up your keys too. kinda weird if you keyboard works well in other applications but not in elma

so if you dont have anything else to say than "your blah blah blah sax balle" then it might be better not to reply at all.

lol nice, Karlis for op!

anyway, make sure you have correct drivers installed, i had sorta the same issue with mine wen i put in the "official" keyboard driver, it would let me use numpad in elma, there are often more than one driver for stuff just a matter of finding

That happens for me too soemtimes... I just retry til it works.. it happened last time earlier today :P

But it doesnt happen often so its ok.. but when it happens it can be annoying... And if it (as it seems) happens alot I really understand why you want it away. (and I have good Keyboard and Computer... so prolly some settings or shit)

Hope you getthe problem solved :*

this is apparently not computer problem, but like many ppl have said, a keyboard issue. keyboards are made for typing and not pressing several keys at once. what you can do is try a different keyboard; usb keyboards usually cause more trouble.

well there have been topics about this, you should search forum for it (keys perhaps, or keyboard). try out different key combinations (shift and ctrl usually work with more keys).

my keys are: shift, ctrl, numpad 4,5,6.

My friend has tried two keyboards, changing keys haven't worked those few times he has actually been able to enter elma without having his keyboard stop working. The problem isn't just the driving part, It is that the keyboard completely stop working. And I went through entire Problems section to find this thread okay...

I have no good solution, only heard of another guy who tested elma and got same kind of problem.

Only thing I could think of is reinstall. Reinstall elma, reinstall drivers, reinstall windows, that stuff. Install other drivers, outside of windows ones, maybe that would help?

Step 1: Buy a boat
Step 2: Using your boat, take entire computer apparatus into middle of the ocean
Step 3: Dispose of computer apparatus into ocean
Step 4: Upon returning to land, purchase different computer apparatus
