Movement Key Problem
I am having problems with the w and s movement keys. When pressed and held down, I move forward (or back) for a bit and then the movement cuts out until I release and hold down the key again. I then...

I have additional information regarding the movement key problem I am having:
-Both the 'w' and 's' keys have a problem. They quit working (with or without boost in a vehicle) whenever the 'a' or 'd' keys (left or right key) are pressed. Lifting the 'w' or 's' keys and pressing them again resumes movement until the left or right keys are pressed.
-Problem occurs even if I remap the movement keys to the up/down and right/left arrow keys!
-The problem occurs in BF3 and BF4.
-I have late model Z87 MB with Intel processor, drivers and bios updated to latest available from Asus
-The problem happens with any keyboard I use.
-My keyboards are all PS2 style with USB converter used to connect the kb to motherboard.
-I have not tried a direct USB keyboard yet, since it would require me to buy one. I will try buying a cheap one and see if the problem repeats.
Stay tuned.
I can confirm you suspicions are most likely accurate in Battlefield 4. Hooked my gaming rig into a KVM that I have and also had to use the USB-PS/2 converter and have "exactally" the same issues "W" and "S" keys work for a short period of time (couple seconds) then you have to repress the key. But on the flip side of the coin I also have a USB keyboard (Saitek Eclipse II) which works without a problem in Battlefield 4.
Get a USB keyboard and should fix your problem.
Good Luck!
i have USB keyboard, and I am getting similar problem from time to time. It happens with W, A, S, D, CTRL (used for sprint), SHIFT (used for scope). Also it is similar but not the same. My problem is that in random moments one of these keys (W by feet and SHIFT in vehicles mostly) will stop working, and i have to retap it to activate again.
Sticky keys are disabled, this happens on other usb keyboards, this never happens in other games (CSS, Q3L).
Please advise.
