Stepmania Glitch (Can only register two arrows at a time)

I think this may be a PC problem but I am sure somebody here knows how to solve it.

Basically, SM/ITGPC will only register up to two arrows at a time on my computer and any more are just ignored.

Note: this is with the keyboard not the pad, the pad works fine.

(running a HP Pavilion dv9330us)

It's your keyboard... it's not capable of more than two buttons simultaneously, at least on the regular arrows.

its not SM, its your keyboard
some keyboards don't register very many key presses at once.
i would suggest getting a logitech keyboard, a higher end one if you can. they are good.

Yes it's the keyboard. However, I don't recommend getting a good keyboard. It's actually the old nasty ones that work better. Or you can do what I did and configure the buttons so that you use the regualar arrows and 1235 on the # pad.

try just using the number pad. my arrow keys only register 2 as well, but the number pad not only registers quads, but is much more sensitive.

i got mine for like $10 at walmart.

yeah that is a very common thing i think. My friend has a keyboard that does that, and my old keyboard did that too.
