  Most errors are caused by bad connections. Check your cable from the key
  board to the PC. Check de DIN connector (female) on your motherboard.
  Check the soldering of this connector. 

  I have had all kind of trouble with my keyboard (beeping at power up,
  missing keystrokes, etc.) and it always boild down to a rotten connection
  somewhere. 

  Something about the keyboard controller. The keyboard itself is equiped 
  with a microcontroller, which handles your keyboard input. It is controlled
  by your PC via a simple _language_. (You could program your keyboard your-
  self, and let the LEDs flash impressively on your deck... :-) ). It is not
  likely that the error can be found there.
