    hmmm i have a G15 and thats never happened before. Have you got the newest drivers installed go to the logitech website and get them. umm other than that is it shorting out anywhere like on the cord or inside the actual keyboard. Sorry if thats no help.

    Is it doing in a constant pattern, or does a mild tap or shake of the keyboard change it?

    Throwing it at the wall sounds bad.

    Installing drivers at high velocity sounds much better!

    play with your wire from the keyboard to the USB/PS2 jack, to see if the wire isn't loose somewhere. And look in the G15 and see if there are no loose wires again.

    There's an easier way to do this:

    -If you have a multimeter, use the continuity check
    -If you don't, you can make a circuit with a 3v battery and an LED and test each wire to see if it lights up.
