Isn't the Razer Blackwidow still a pretty new product? Was it even sold six months ago? If you got the same laws in France as here in Germany (because of the EU), returning the keyboard to the shop where you bought it will fix your problem and you will get a new one.

can anyone help me? im starting to think the problem might be with windows xp rather then the keyboard itself. the spacebar still works, but only if i keep S pressed down

Are you able to test the keyboard on another computer....I recently brought myself and my brother the Razer Blackwidow and not one of us is having issues......

I actually laughed out loud when I read your original post with all the S's after the spaces in it.

If returning it to the store isn't an option, you really should email Razer about it. I highly doubt it's any kind of driver problem, the variance in issues really makes it sound like a hardware level problem.

How bout, try plugging that thing into another USB Slot.

Just send it back to razer and they'll send you a new one

Decent number of people actually consider it to be their first keyboard that's worth a damn. Although the Lycosa works perfectly if you don't install the Razer software. Makes you wonder about all those "hardware" problems they've had.

If by "a damn" you mean "way too much" then yes I do think that the Razer Widow is worth "a damn"

I said "worth" as opposed to "costs". Don't own a BW myself, but it's got way less negative reviews and way more positive than any other Razer keyboard. Generally you don't see complaints outside the hardcore mech keyboard people.

I know this is a bit old, but I had the same problem. As a work around in the Razer macro software you can disable the right alt key (or if you have an old version of the driver assign a blank macro to it since only the newest version can disable keys).

I actually emailed Razer support about it and they told me that there was an issue where some of the space bars were actually too big causing them to rub against and depress the alt key when they were pressed. I'm waiting on their reply but hopefully they can just send me a new key to swap in rather than shipping the board back to them.

Edit: Wanted to add that aside from this problem I love the keyboard.

I had this problem once, unplugging the black widow and plugging it in again fixed it. I think it's just a driver error.

I stopped buying razer keyboards, they are known to have issues and even the mechanical keyboard has more than a switch problem if there is an issue.

You have to send them an email through techsupport@razersupport.com , and hope you get an answer quicker than I did. When I was having issues with my old razer marauder it took them 2 weeks to finally give me an RMA number and shipping label.

dude, identical problem except with sevens. scrubbed the USB port and usb plug, working fine now. it was likely not a manufacturing defect as certain letter combinations triggered a seven.
Zerg definitely does have responses to FFs pre-hive tech. Infestors, baneling drops, burrowed roaches, and mutas are all options

I have no macros on. But when I make a macro and press spacebar it doesnt work and then if i spam it all at once the spacebar registers as left windows, right shift, right alt, m, and N.
