All,

I'm looking for a new gaming keyboard, but all I see are issues with windows 7 64bit and gaming keyboards. I currently have a Zboard usb and have recently come across some issues with the keys completely stop working. I can take the key set out and press down the the rubber plunger for that key and it works fine. There is nothing physically wrong with the keyboard. It is fairly new. I beleive it is a problem with the drivers and windows 7. Windows 7 will not recognize my keyboard!! Please help.

Pressing it down with your finger/pen/pin/stick and pressing it with the key which does exactly the same does not mean you are having a driver issue. It means there is something physically wrong with the keyboard.

Sounds to me that the key you're pressing isn't pressing down onto the rubber plunger.

I have a Logitech G15 KB and I use Windows 7 Ultimate x64... as old as that KB is, I seem to have zero problems with it. Logitech may not be the best at software options for a kb but it does the job fairly well.
