Default Shift/Ctrl/Alt key in video games

Ok im having a problem with my wireless keyboard with my new Hp Pavilion media center m8020n tv pc. Basically, when i try to use shift/ctrl/alt in a video game lets say to run or crouch, i have to release whatever keys im pressing (W,A,D,S) then press shift/ctrl/alt and then press W,A,D,S again. How do i fix it to where i can just hold WADS and then press Shift/Alt/Ctrl like normal?

wireless keyboard and mouse r both bad when it comes to fps.. it takes split seconds for ur computer to read what the keyboard is doing.. so. get a crap wired one.. ever thought of going to keyboard divice in control panel?

yea thats the first place i checked, i saw nothing, then i tried updating the drivers and still no good. dunno whats up but seems like when i press it and then WADS its like its being held down until i release WADS so basically, Press Shift/Ctrl/Alt then pressing/holding WADS releasing SHift/Ctrl/Alt, Shift/Ctrl/Alt still active even tho not being pressed.

Which game are you playing?

If the game usually did just fine before you used that keyboard, then just get a wired one. A good enough keyboard only costs about 10 dollars.

On my dads wireless keyboard, if you hold in a key too long, it thinks its being smart by not recognizing it until you press it down again...no racing games for me T__T
