So I replace the space bar with h and now any chord with 3 or more notes including the h simply does not work. When I press d-f-h-j-k all at the same time only d, f, j, and k will light up. This happens with f-h-j, d-f-h, etc.. f-h, h-j, and the like will work, but once it goes above three notes, the h does not respond.

I then played with the space bar again and it works fine, but when I changed it to h it did not. Can someone help?

It's nothing wrong with my keyboard, the h works fine. I mapped space to 4 different keys and i had the same problem, I can't play 3 note chords with that key in it.

it is wrong with your keyboard, its called ghosting, look it up on google.

It actually is a fault of your keyboard.
The effect is known as ghosting and describes when only a limited number of inputs can be read from certain key combinations. Almost all keyboards have this, actually.
If you are looking to buy a keyboard without ghosting issues for mania, look for something with at least 7-key rollover (8-key rollover if you're looking to play 8key). Ideally, go for n-key rollover (which accepts any number of simultaneous key presses).

/E: Damn you, silmarilen :|

If you got another one use 2 keyboards, cheaper than buying a good one

quite simple, just read through this and you will have a very good understanding of what is stopping you from holding all the keys you wish for at the same time!
