    Can these Key Tronic Boards be upgraded to switches and and sliders instead of the rubber membrane?

      I would assume so. It would take a lot of effort though, and would probably require melting or cutting plastic, Anything can be done if you throw enough time and money at it, but in a world with 45 dollar mechanical keyboards, it wouldn't be worth it.

      You'd need to find a real keyboard that uses a similar layout and hope that the kb housing could hold the PCB of said real keyboard. Then you'd need switches that are compatible with the fake-mechanical sliders these boards use. Might be possible for a topre board, but those are niche and already super expensive.

    How do I get my key tronic 102wn to work with my windows 10 laptop? I have two adapters, at to ps/2 and ps/2 to usb. When I connect it the computer reads it as a barcode scanner and the light turns on on the keyboard but it just doesn’t type at all.
    Thanks

      Wow, that's pretty wild. I've never heard of a problem like that. The only thing I can think of is to try a new PS2 adapter.

    Nice try on this one, it's a pity that a keyboard brand with such boastful claims about their quality and longevity turned out to be a simple turd of hardware.
