Keyboard not working sometimes
It is a curved type (ergonomic) Microsoft brand. I've always used it on my lap and only the past 3/4 weeks it will not work half the time. If I hold it up to get it started it does all right until the next time. Is it dying and needs replacing? It has bells and whistles I never use and if replacement is needed it will be a vanilla model... I've checked connections and they are always OK. I don't think it could be memory... I have one gig. Thanks so much for your help.

Sounds like you've hit the nail on the head, the keyboard could be on its last legs, although not necessarily. Since you say this is a keyboard with media keys im guessing its goin to be usb, it could be a driver problem. But if you need to physically move it about to get it working i'd start scouting for a new keyboard.
