When ever i load a game that requires
-WASD
-Up Down Left Right
Control, it is near to impossible for me to play. I have a G15 Logitech and im not sure if its a Keyboard or a software problem, but one key always gets stuck.
If im playing Raze, i press "D" to go right, and i end up walking until i hit a wall then i cant move.

Any suggestions on what to do?

So far i've tried
-Refreshing the window
-Clicking out of the game, then clicking back in
-Minimizing
-Toggling the Game Key Stick switch on my G15
and nothing has worked.

Please help

Try clicking back into the game and pressing D again.

yeah see if it does the same thing for all games.
If so then there is probably a problem with your keyboard.
If it doesn't mess up I would suggest either restarting your computer or if that still doesn't work just message the creator of the game.

Check if this happens on other games/programs. Then try changing the keyboard to see if the problem is keyboard-specific, if it still doesn't work.

Could you name a few games where you had this problem? So we know that it is not the game. Raze works fine for me. What about others? Maybe your keyboard is stuck(if it really is the cause for the problem). Sometimes i get that for my keyboard. I bend down and look the wire is stuck or entangled between some other wires and that causes the problem. I disentangle it and everything becomes ok.

So far, every game that needs WASD has problems. Figured keyboard problem, opened up Age of Conan, World of Warcraft and Warhammer, all worked perfect, no sticking problems. Restarted my computer, nothing... I think im going to attempt using Mozilla next time i play.

Clear your cache and your cookies. That might help. Before that, what OS do you use?

Try to reconfigure your keyboard going to Control Panel.
If it still doesnt work, maybe your PC or keyboard are too old.

Are you using IE 8? Because it does that.
