17 R5, external keyboard issue
Every external keyboard that i use will drop some key inputs.
I play osu!mania in the esports scene & its very important to me that this does not happen.
The integrated laptop keyboard works flawlessly HOWEVER i do NOT use it once i do prefer external keyboards.
The issue arose about 2 weeks ago. Beforehand external keyboards worked flawlessly.
No Events found!

Hi @CommandoBlack
Is it the external kb a DELL kb?
You can try a system restore back to a date when the external keyboard was working fine.

No its not a Dell KB. I will not do a system restore. I'm currently testing 2 different KB's at the moment attempting to pinpoint the cause of the issue. Though if anything else comes to mind it would be appreciated.

Ok so i have more information.
This issue appears to be related to windows 10.
I just played through the qualifiers in the SOFT4 tournament. 3/4 players in my group where experiencing this same issue.
About 0.01% of inputs are dropped from the testing i've conducted regardless of keyboard used. (including the integrated laptop keyboard)
Once this is a huge issue for osu there is a thread on its forums: https://osu.ppy.sh/community/forums/topics/774159
I'm currently using windows version 1809 (latest update)
Restarting my computer seems to resolve the issue temporarily but only for (on average) 30 minutes.
