I had this problem once before, I know this should be somewhere else but I don't go outta the lounge :rolleyes:

Right, my keyboard is about 6 months old and I have a little problem with it.
Every time I try to type "The" or "Here" or anything with an "H" in it , it wont type, my "H" key is broken and wont work, :(

Does anyone have an idea for solving my "H" problem? :unsure:

so you can't use the 'h' key then?

:rolleyes:

Keep the letters h and H in a notepad file and paste them in whenever you need them - this saves you using Character map like you obviously did just there.

Or get a new keyboard, they're only a fiver or so!

or just use the on-screen keyboard in accessibility options...

If you have a three-buttoned mouse you can use Intellipoint to assign the third button to 'h'.

Well he must still be using Character Map or one of the alternatives we suggested.

You're not implying that he's lying, are you? :o

Jonno have you tried taking your keyboard apart and cleaning around the h key because my old one someone got some sticky stuff and before you start thinking gross it was popl or something... but yeah clean that and see if that works ;)

Get you self one of those old keyboards because these new keyboards are all crappy and are made with the same plastic sheet inside of them.

Its a plastic sheet with the circuit actually drawn on with some thing that conducts electricity and the buttons are just little pads that when pressed connect the traces. My keyboard was doing the exact same thing and when i opened it all i saw was that sheet.

The old boards are the best because they dont use a damn sheet they use propper pcb with copper traces like it should be.

Says Mr &#39;user posted image&#39;

Edit: something very strange going on. I couldn&#39;t see two of your images. I did a refresh, and after that it was a different two that I couldn&#39;t see.

i havent seen yours for weeks lynx, but i thought someone had told you. shame, i like the chef :D


right click show pic and refresh doesnt work either


if it&#39;s a host prob, this mob http://uploadit.org/ are pretty good

Virtualbody1234
10-13-2003, 12:42 PM
Yup. Same thing here. It&#39;s been a few weeks that I havn&#39;t seen that chef.

Anyone else having problems seeing mine?

There was definitely something strange happening with villagephotos. The image is 69x80, but was being reported as 80x80. And someone was definitely able to see it because the usage was climbing (quite rapidly actually). I&#39;ve moved it to uploadit.org and the image size is now reported correctly - very strange.

Edit: since updating MY avatar, I can suddenly see all your images too, Virt (Nearly called you VB, but that just would not have been right).

Edit again: no, after a refresh they&#39;ve gone again, it&#39;s probably just my browser playing up.

Yeah, I heard those at about the same time I found the pic.

Yeah, the spagetti was always there.

Did the "bork bork bork" chef use any ketchup in that spagetti sauce?

Thanks Lamsey. :D

I was trying to figure out why BigMouse wasn&#39;t able to see them.

Too bad, Bigmouse. :(
