Well right now im using my dads keyboard on my computer and it's fine.
No clicking at the start and as you can probably tell my s p a c e b a r is working
I cannot understand why its doing this
Guess im going to have to borrow my dads until tommorow then i can go buy a new keyboard. I need a new one anyway

PS. Is there anyway to turn the sleep and power function off on my keyboard. It sometimes gets in the way and i accidently press it.

Thanks

This is indeed a wierd one..

Have you opened the case to check if the sound indeed comes from the hd?

Also try this , go to "my computer" and rightclick youre (C: ) drive , select properties and then on the "tools" tab , under error checking , press "check now" and allow to reboot youre pc.

Also check if the language and keyboard settings are still correct.

did you have a key stuck? - that could cause a "ticking" sound

Aren't they software driven?...i.e, if you don't install the software that controls the buttons they shouldn't work...
