    My keyboard works when I am typing, but whenever I try to play a game online, it doesn't work at all for that. I have a Windows HP Labtop, not sure of other facts about it.

    guess it has something to do with the settings of your game. If you can try to set your game settings to default I guess that would help.

    No no, see, it is not 1 game, or 1 site, it is, more or less, all the online games I play that require the keyboard.

    Look in Control Panel/Add or remove programs and it will tell you what version you have.

    Here is the link also. http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/ Be sure to uncheck the Google Tool Bar unless you want it.

    Well, I uninstalled and re installed everything I could see labeled adobe, but your link said the same thing it has the whole time
    "Your Google Chrome browser already includes Adobe® Flash® Player built-in. Google Chrome will automatically update when new versions of Flash Player are available. "

    Instead of using Google Chrome, try using IE and see what happens with the keyboard.

    I've already tried that, but the game won't actually load.
    And with Firefox, it runs so slow I can't do anything.
