I'll move past the obligatory "I'm new" here and get to my problem : When I type certain keys, the keyboard prints out the correct character but also 'garbage' additional characters... Not all keys are doing this, mainly just the S key (prints 's/') and both H and J (prints 'hj').
At first I thought it was my USB->PS/2 adapter, so I plugged the keyboard into old trusty (WinXP ASrock AGP Desktop) and the problem persisted...

I'm wondering if anyone has ran into a problem like this before? I tried my hand at Google-fu but I didn't find the exact same problem I am having.
One thing I did find is someone who had a similar Model M, all of his keys were printing random characters. I read further and it seemed like people were suggesting to replace the PS/2 cable, and do a "bolt mod"(?).
My guess was maybe bad capacitors, but I have never opened up this keyboard so I am not sure what the insides look like. I'm probably really wrong.
Any advice?
