Weird/Stupid Keyboard problem

Hi guys. Since I last formated last night, I can't make a ":" with the left SHIFT key. I mean, SHIFT + ; = : but only with right SHIFT. With Left SHIFT, it does absolutely nothing. But the left SHIFT key works withe very other keys, no exceptions.

I'm using the French (Canada)/French (Canada) keyboard layout.

Thanks for helping.

Left Shift key works by itself?
Try plugging it into another machine. If the problem persists I can only conclude by the rupture of the internal circuitry of the keyboard.

You would not have any friend who is an electronics technician? I dunno, it might be something easy to solve. Buy a new keyboard for just a key defective ... If it were "a" key, but the "shift" key ...
