Tried that, and disconnected the keyboard, and reconnected after XP
rebooted. XP made no announcement of "new hardware detected"; the
keyboard(s) just reappeared in Device Manager. Then tried updating
drivers, with the WinXP CD in the CD drive. Windows couldn't find a
better driver.
Problem persists. I'm going to try blasting the keys with a can of
air, in case it's caused by debris under the keys.
