Keyboard issue with directional keys.

Kalou -

Good evening everyone,
I have a problem with my keyboard, more specifically with my directional keys for all the video games I play.
In all my games, the directional keys seem to be stuck; for example, in a racing game, when I try to steer my vehicle to the right, it will continue to go right even after I've released the key, and this lasts for quite a while, a bit like lag in online games. Even when playing solo, I have the same problem...
I have this issue with all Steam games (Counter-Strike, Day of Defeat), as well as TrackMania Nations.
I have no idea where the problem is coming from because it keeps happening even after I changed keyboards (both of my keyboards are quite old and of low quality... (a Connectland and a Dell keyboard that came with the computer).
I am therefore awaiting your responses/advice,
Thank you in advance,
Best regards,
Kalou.

    Hi,

    I had the same issue in TrackMania.
    I ended up killing the processes one by one, and for me, it was Messenger Plus.
    By uninstalling it, I solved the problem of the stuck directional key.

      Thank you for your response, BelZel, I will think about it (without being a novice, I am quite ignorant hihihi!)...

      To further my question, you suggest removing one by one the processes that I display on the task manager (?? yes?)...

      Thanks a lot again!!!! Bye..
