    How do you get your computer from beeping at you?

    When playing songs such as flight of the bumblebee or say...CIA Rave (stupid computer) my computer beeps, and skips like .2 seconds of notes, keeping me from FC/AAAing these songs. Is there a way to bypass the computers overload beep? Only occurs when I either
    A. Hold 3 or more arrows down.
    B. Hit arrows way fast like in Flight of the Bumblebee.
    C. Hit repeating doubles such as TGWP 4.

    It's a keyboard issue, which means the only way to fix it would be to try a different keyboard. Sorry man.

      I have the same problem. Use the numpad or spread it out.

          Try turning off Num Lock.


          Usually does the trick.

            I had this problem with one of my other keyboards, so I switched it with the one Im currently using. Its an issue with your keyboard. Its prejudiced against FFR and Stepmania.

                most likely its a keyboard look in google for N-key rollover ( i think that is what its called) It only allows a certain number of keys to be pressed in succession some of the high end keyboards you can press up to 5 keys or more, I know theres a board out for gaming that you can press all of the keys on the board one behind the other and the keys work (it would help alot in cs.. jump, crouch, shoot, reload, zoom. all at the same time) ... but yea try to get you hands on a keyboard with n-key rollover check google to find some brands that are compatible.

                  Like I said.. new keyboard or use the numpad.

                    I have the same problem.
                    And I hate it.

                    I'm curious though, what would Num Lock have to do with it?
