< key triggers sticky alt on Windows 7
- by Xoundboy
When using a code editor like Notepad++ or Eclipse I'm experiencing a rather annoying problem:
each time I type the < key the keyboard latches into some unexpected mode whereby the subsequent keypress behaves as if the alt key were being held down. The only way to return to normal mode is to hit the escape key twice immediately after I type a < character.
The keyboard is a Microsoft Comfort Curve 2000 and the OS is Windows 7.
Does anyone have any idea what I should do to stop this behaviour?
Thanks
