Internet Explorer 'drops out'....New Wireless Keyboard

Hey, today I was delivered my Logitech LX700, and its great, Im happy, got is discount price as its a US keyboard and refurbished. (Im in the UK)

However, get it set up, and wierdly enough after about 10mins of being online (on the net) my internet explorer returns nothing but page cannot be displayed...but msn still works?!

The network Im on is a home wirless network, and the issue isnt ocurring on any of the other PC's!

I'm baffled, I'm not sure if it has anything to do with the keyboard but everything was fine prior install. Im typing this quick in the hopes it will post before my internet explorer stops again.

Anywhoo...can anyone help?

Tried disconnecting my wireless keyboard- nothing, but i really wasnt suspecting the ahrdware to be the suspect anyway, tried seeing if it depended on whether I was constantly using IE, as it was always when i went back to IE that I was getting the problem, and nope it just happens after around 10mins, and deflates my bubbles every timee

Send a message via MSN to Tony Williams
Sorry for taking so long to post sorry to see no one else answered it for you. If you are still having the problem and MSN still works try installing a different browser (eg, Firefox) or try rolling back the settings and make sure it's not running though a proxy or anything bazar. I really can't see the keyboard being the trouble.

You say the problem began right after you installed the software for the keyboard?

For now, revert back to your old keyboard. Also, go to Add/Remove Programs and remove the Logitech software, if there is any.

Although unlikely, your driver may conflict (who knows). We'll see after you revert back to the generic windows drivers.

I'd venture to say the wireless keyboard is interfering with the wireless network if the two use the same frequency. Try moving the channels on either the router or the keyboard and see what happens.
