    I have a HP keyboard. On the left and right, there is shortcut keys. Such as Internet, email, etc. It used to work fine. I would customize it to my sites (like hotmail). However, it seem to stop working. I didnt do anythin with the keyboard function. only the volume and Sleep buttons work. Thx

    P.S. Its a PS/2 keyboard

    can you try that keyboard & software on another pc to see if works properly or not as possible the keyboard is dying.

    then you have a software issue. uninstall the program, run a registry cleaner if you have 1, defrag the drive & re-install the program.
