follow-up every keypress pauses video until key is unpressed. (holding key keeps video paused but when unpressed video plays)

Hello FitchTV,

Sorry to hear you're having issues with your ROG Strix Flare II keyboard.

Have you installed Armoury Crate and updated the firmware?

Here are the latest versions.

You can reset your keyboard with Armoury Crate on the keys page.

Does everything look normal in Armoury Crate? You can post screenshots if you like.

Here is the link to Armoury Crate. In the link below select your operating system, install version 3.2.5.2, then head to the update center and check for updates.

Armoury Crate - Support (asus.com)

ARMOURY CRATE HAS BEEN INSTALLED SINCE I GOT IT YES AND ITS UPDATED. AND TOIDAY NOW EVERY KEY PRESS MUTES AND UNMUTES SOUND OF EVERYTHING. i payed $500 CANADIAN FOR THIS **bleep**!?

  Ok,

Not to worry, is your ROG Strix Flare II still under warranty? If we can't fix it, you can use the warranty for a replacement. The warranty is good for 1 year from the purchase date.

Have you done any other troubleshooting? Here are some things to try.

1) Disconnect your keyboard from your pc and reconnect it.

2) Uninstall your keyboard from device manager and reboot. It should show under "Mice and other pointing devices".

3) Run the windows keyboard troubleshooter.

4) Add the US QWERTY keyboard layout in windows.

5) Are you able to try your keyboard on another pc to confirm the same issues? No need to install Armoury Crate to test it.
