Exactly what the title says. What brand, type, etc. of keyboards are the best to use for FoF. My HP keyboard that came with the computer doesn't allow me to press more than 2 frets at a time.

Get a better keyboard, lol.

I'm kidding. I don't think there is such thing as a "Best" keyboard.

I need a better keyboard. Sometimes when I'm not looking I accidentally hit the help or internet key above the f1, f2, etc. Then it lags FoF =(. (I'm not that great at FoF, but I'm getting better =D)

If you can, get a Dell like THIS.

Then set your frets to:

~1234 and ] and \ for strumming. I have this setup, and I can hold all 5 frets and double strum.

maybe I'll move my frets to ~1234
Enter works for me, but the numbers (~123 and 4) seem a little far up =(
Thanks. I'll look for that keyboard

I have the same problem. I tried to play thunderstruck but when its 3 frets and one of them is purple it won't let me push them all down.

My university uses those keyboards, I just noticed it today, but they do allow many buttons to be pressed at once, I tried but I couldn't make the computer beep. I'm gonna see if I can get one off of the university, because I don't really want to order it online.

most Logitech Cordless keyboards handle ~1234 and RShift/Enter fine (tried out 4 generations of it, all worked)
Logitech Internet Navigator SE also works with that combination
Keep trying no matter how annoying! ;]

DO NOT get a ZBoard Gaming Board, it has extra buttons at the top making it impossible to reach the F/Number keys comforatbly.
