try blowing out all of the dust from your keyboard using a fine air blower from an air compressor making VERY sure there is no MOISTURE in the lines or a can of compressed air.
dust causes static which causes lots of problems with a computer and its parts
you might have to uninstall your keyboard restart your computer then reinstall it
make sure the batteries are fully charged and have good seating points (if applicable) corrosion
make sure the ps2 lead connection is secure and dust free (if applicable)
make sure the usb device is inserted correctly into the usb port (if applicable)
