If I close the program and open a word processor the QWERTY board is fine. If I Re-boot Reaper the QWERTY board works again for a bit and then doesn't. Anyone else come across this?
I'm on Windows 10 and Reaper V5.95, I'm using a keyboard with a PS2 connector and not a USB connector.

I can't imagine a scenery were Reaper could be responsible for this. As I understand it right, a PS2 connected keyboard just gets activated from the system with the corresponding driver. Everything Reaper does is receiving those commands from the system without even recognizing how they get achieved. A PS2 keyboard is not a Midi device.
I guess there is something different going on. Maybe you have a broken cable or connector, which just shows up at a certain position of your keyboard. You should try to open notepad and write letters while moving the keyboard or cable. Make sure it doesn't stop randomly. Years ago i had the same problem with my mouse. I thought it was a driver problem, so i installed and uninstalled a hundred times till i realized it was the broken cable which did just show up randomly.
And last but not least it could be the driver of course. But as long as its a standard keyboard, windows shouldn't have a problem with that.
Hope that helped.
