Just bought a new Filco Majestouch 2 Ninja Brown switch at RM399. The big keys like the Shift, Backspace, Enter and three big keys at Numlock sort of rattle when I lightly tap them (not press, lightly tap). Is it normal?

Anyway, don't know if it's the right place, but does anybody here know where to get keyboard trays?

Huh, that confirms what I've heard about Filco thus far. It does get annoying though since whenever I tap the Backspace button, I can hear the rattling sound.

Keyboard tray refers to those sliding out surfaces normally on computer tables. (https://imgur.com/a/d79zg#0)

Haha, yea that's true. However I'm just looking for a keyboard tray itself, I already have a desk. So yea...

Haha, everyone has their own cup of tea.

I've got a question. I've connected my Filco Majestouch 2 to my computer through the included PS/2 adapter. I was trying to test NKRO and decided to press as many keys on the keyboard, so I palmed it with my two hands. After that it seems like the modifier keys are stuck or something.

Here's another thread I found that has the same problem. http://www.overclock.net/t/1035637/filco-s...ifiers-and-keys

Anybody else have this issue with their Filco?

Haha, just something I found out and wanted to confirm if it's normal.

Anybody else again?

Filco NKRO Test

Majestouch 2 users, could you spare a minute and test your own boards and see if this turns up?

Problem doesn't exist on 6KRO. Since the problem theoretically occurs whenever more than 15+ keys are pressed and quickly released.

I've tried mashing all the keys as in the video, since that's my testing procedure. I activated the beep, then proceed to check whether Sticky Keys are active in the Ease of Access panel and it doesn't seem so. Sticky Keys is unchecked and I've also disabled the "Lock modifier keys ....." option. Still the same thing.

The easiest to test is the Shift key stuck modifier, but the interesting thing is other modifier keys such as Ctrl and Alt are also affected. The fix which you tried (pressing both sides of modifier keys) seems to fix it. I've since ruled out OS specific problems since I can reproduce the problem on Linux, although that was only one instance.

I contact Daitec and they actually cleared my board for RMA, I'm just running through with everybody for the last time before I actually RMA it and be left without my board for a whole month

Well I've read on GeekHack forums that another user encountered this issue, I just wanted to confirm if it's just specific people (in which case, I will RMA it) or if it affects other brands and majority of Filco users.

Noted. That's strange, I thought all Filco boards come with a PS/2 adapter included within the box itself.

Haha, I believe that person could be me.

I'm just generally curious and I want to know whether RMA'ing it will actually make a difference. Don't want to be without my board for a whole month and end up getting the same problems.

In that case, I'll take the dive and RMA it whenever I'm free. If it comes back and I still get the same thing, then nothing we can do about it. Kind of sucks though, since I was expecting full NKRO, which it does deliver in some sense.

So, remember that whole stuck modifier key issue I had awhile back? I got a new replacement from C-zone, same issue still occurs. Guess it's universal.

Search for my posts in this thread. I posted a bit about having stuck modifier keys on Filco (via PS/2) as I was trying to test the NKRO feature.

Haha, I thought it was sticky key till I changed OS from Windows 8.1 to Ubuntu 14.04 and found the same issue. I even brought the keyboard to the store to test today and they got the same issue.

Well since Filco advertises NKRO, I'd expect it to at least provide. I mean universally CM Storm is considered a tier below Filco, even that achieves NKRO (I don't know whether they have the same issue), if Filco can't get it, something's up.

Perhaps. I've reached out to Daitec since then. You're right though, NKRO is a nice thing to have but it's not exactly necessary. I find PS/2 responds somewhat quicker to keystrokes, that's been my finding at least. Ah well, I'll bite my bullet and eat it. For the price of this Majestouch 2 Ninja, I could have gotten the swankiest CM Storm board.
