Q: Keyboard freezing increasingly in El Capitain
I have had to write this in Word, copy and paste the post as the keyboard is freezing every time I try to write the question! It is also freezing in Word more and more often so I have a text edit window open – type in a couple of words there and then sometimes I can continue in Word. This doesn’t work on the web page - that just totally freezes usually until I reboot the computer I read the other posts (which is why I did as instructed and started a new discussion even though it is the same problem as others are having) and have checked my keyboard is UK. It is really getting annoying and slowing my work down. I am using an IMac desktop, have new batteries in my keyboard and would really appreciate any suggestions
iMac (21.5-inch Mid 2011), OS X El Capitan (10.11.2)

If your wireless or USB keyboard doesn't work

If your Wi-Fi is capable of generating a 5 GHz signal, try that.
Restart the computer holding down the command - option/alt - P - R keys before the gray screen appears. Continue to hold until you hear the startup chime for the second time.
