This may rank up there as the most annoying OS/2 but I have experienced. I have tried going back one version of ibmkbd.sys. This had no affect. I may try using the kbd.sys from the beta II next. Of course, this may not be related to this driver at all, it may be something else; but it is a start. If anyone figures out the answer, PLEASE post it!!
