 * }

Q65170

-

The information in this article applies to:


 * Microsoft Windows versions 3.0, 3.0a

-

SYMPTOMS
The 286 desktop Zenith with the 84-key keyboard may miss or repeat keystrokes when you are using Microsoft Windows version 3.0.

CAUSE
This behavior is due to a problem with the scan controller in the keyboard. Zenith does not plan to update the controller because the chip is not removable.

WORKAROUND
The only solution is to upgrade to a different keyboard that the ROM BIOS and systems control processor are able to support. A Zenith 101-key keyboard or a compatible 84-key keyboard other than Zenith's may resolve this problem.
