Ok, this keyboard is less than 3 months old. Lately, when strafe jumping or bhopping the game swaps over to windows desktop. Very annoying. I have the G15 windows key switched off. I even removed my bind from the control key (because it sticks up slightly higher than i'm used to and i drag my pinky across it).
I can't reproduce the problem when I try (just pressing the windows key does nothing so it seems the keyboard "off" feature for the windows key is working). But it happens regularly when I play. The only thing I notice is that it tends to happen more when my fingers are "flatter" to the keyboard (dragging pinky across the control and windows keys). If I conciously "arch" my fingers, it rarely happens. This leads me back to believing there is an issue with the windows key. But the swap out of the game is to the desktop, not the windows start menu. It's just like hitting alt_tab.
Suggestions?
