I have a Cooler Master Storm USB keyboard. I have plugged it in to my new MacBook Pro. The OS took me through the keyboard setup screen, and 'recognized' the keyboard as a standard US one. Some keys work, other keys do strange things. When I press c, it types a c after the cursor, instead of before. When I type e, it types an e along with a space after it. Is it possible that this particular keyboard will not work with Mac OS X?

Have you verified it works correctly under Windows? It's important to ascertain this as it will save a lot of Mac troubleshooting if it turns out to simply be a defective keyboard. – ScunnerDarkly Mar 12 '15 at 14:08

@ScunnerDarkly - It does not work correctly in a Windows Parallels VM. I don't have bootcamp Windows installed. On my PC, the keyboard works fine. – horse hair Mar 12 '15 at 14:08

1Assuming I'm looking at the correct model of CM keyboard, I wonder if the NKRO mode is causing issues as it's not supported by OS X. The manual suggests there are two rollover modes, 6-key and full NKRO. Have you tried changing the rollover mode? – ScunnerDarkly Mar 12 '15 at 14:16

@ScunnerDarkly You sir deserve a Nobel Prize. Please put this as an answer. Switching NKRO mode fixed the problem. – horse hair Mar 12 '15 at 14:49
