My Razer Lycosa keyboard was one of the best bits of my gaming PC which I bought, it has a great all-round performance.. Anyway, whist in-game, and just surfing the internet my keys block, for example, I will be typing into Google and the letter 'D' will stop working and I have to either reboot, or disconnect and reconnect my keyboard to the back on my box.

It is really quite bizarre, also in-game, sometimes a key will lock, say the letter 'W' will lock even if I'm not holding it down i will be automatically be moving forward in-game. It is the most frustrating thing...

I wondered weather it could be the drivers for the keyboard (out of date) or simply the keyboard was faulty.. I'm not exactly the biggest wizz kid on a PC but I would appreciate a little advice, and maybe a link to the latest drivers for my Razer Lycosa Keyboard.

Thanks :]

Try uninstalling the keyboard in device manager, then hitting scan for hardware changes to reinstall it...

Other than that, its probably a faulty keyboard... Espically if you've tried using bog standard windows drivers, insteaf of the Razor ones..

Its the top right button, looks similar to the My computer Icon. Just hover over each button to get thier name if youre no sure.

Also, here is the latest driver, providing your running XP or Vista. There is a driver for Win 7 if you have that...

You've really helped me so far, but I'm in my device manager and under 'keyboards' It says ' HID Keyboard Device '

If I go into the properties, the 'Driver Provider' is 'Microsoft'

Is this correct, should it not say 'Razer Lycosa' ???

I would hazard a guess that that means you are currently running on the windows genreic driver for keyboards, not the razer one...
Install the driver from the link I gave you, and that should sort it!
