I have a Black Widow Elite and the volume jumps up on its own...

I have a Black Widow Elite and the volume jumps up on its own.  I will be going to a video on a website or even in the middle of the game and the volume level jumps from 20 to 80(give or take 15 in either direction).  Nothing is touching the volume wheel, so it's not like I accidentally bumped it and caused it to turn.  This is obviously going on at the software level as nothing is affecting the hardware...unless there is a failure in the hardware causing this...I don't know what the problem is.  I also have another problem...my escape key stopped working.  I found a site where it tests your hardware and you can click on a key and if it is working, the key on the keyboard on the screen lights up.  The ESC key doesn’t light up.  Everything else, besides the volume issue, is working just fine. I have had my keyboard for more than a few years and I absolutely love it. Could this just be my keyboard is dying and I need to replace it?  That is something I am trying to avoid as money is tigh

Keyboard backlighting

Not sure if this is the right place for suggestions or not.  I have a black Widow Elite and I love it.  This is the 3rd one I have owned and, gods willing I can afford it, when this dies, I will get another.  My only complaint is how the numbers are backlit.  Why don’t you also backlight the shift values?  When I am gaming and even when I am surfing the net or Facebook, a lot of times I don’t have the lights on, so it’s dark and I can't see the shift values.  It is even worse under those conditions because even the minimum glare makes it impossible to read the keys.  I have my own typing style that I developed since I never had the confidence to not look at the keys when I type.  For the most part, I know where every key is and can hit it without looking, but this is a confidence issue.  I would like to be able to see the shift values on the number row.  There is no reason not to make those so the backlighting illuminates the value just as it does the number value above it.  Please upd

Does Gamer Desktop come from Razer?

When I fire up World of Warcraft from their start up program(Battlenet), both of my screens go black and I can only access programs that were already running prior to starting WoW. WoW is actually running and in the background somewhere, but until I exit the "Game Desktop", it remains inaccessible...the Battlenet software is accessible since it was already running. In the center of the top of the screen, there is a dropdown tab (its Razer green...which is one of the reason I suspect it is cortex starting this...the other being is that it pops up when the game optimizer starts).. I cant access my start menu or taskbar (usually accessible via alt+tab). Once I close this mystery game desktop, it goes right to the screen to enter WoW with my last toon played. If this is coming from Razer, how to I shut it off. Even when I exit this desktop, my second monitor remain black. WoW is in windowed mode, so I should see the extended desktop. This just popped up the other day...maybe Tuesda
