My grandfather has a wireless dell keyboard from 2006 and lately it has stopped working properly. The batteries are fine, but it keeps refusing to work. I told them to push the connect buttons on the reciever and the keyboard, and it worked for a minute or two, and then stopped again. This has worked ok before. Could it be that the keyboard is dying or something? (the mouse with the set also doesn't track very well and seems like a piece of crap, so I wouldn't be surprised if the keyboard is the same way) I told them to plug it into grandma's machine and they got the same problem. I ended up telling them to buy a new keyboard (I figured a logitech MK120 set would be good enough, and it's wired).

Maybe the keyboard and the receiver "can't see" each other (wrong angle, obstacles), or the thing is broken. This is often the problem with wireless devices, so cables are not gonna disappear soon.

Hey Brian, I'd say that it is dying. I have a wireless mouse, that is doing pretty much the same thing. I can reset it and it will work fine for a few minutes and then start its mess again. I switched to a wired mouse. I ordered a new keyboard, but didn't bother with a mouse. Will probably do that later.

Your post makes no sense. I am not building a new computer here. DDR is dual-channel as long as you install it in the right slots in pairs. And also, don't put spam links in your posts. No one falls for those.
