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. | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number WALLONN7 / LIN BLACK SERIES II OS Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1 CPU AMD PHENOM II X6 1090T 3.2GHz Motherboard GIGABYTE GA-890FXA-UD7 Memory 8GB G.SKILL RIPJAWS - F3-10666CL7D Graphics Card SAPPHIRE ATI RADEON HD 5870 VAPOR X OC Sound Card REALTEK DOLBY HOME THEATER Monitor(s) Displays LED LG W2486L Screen Resolution 1080p Keyboard MICROSOFT DIGITAL MEDIA KEYBOARD 3000 - USB Mouse MICROSOFT BASIC OPTICAL MOUSE 2.0 - USB PSU ZALMAN ZM1000-HP 1000W Case THERMALTAKE XASER VI VG4000SWA Cooling 140MM x3 / 120MM x1 AIR COOLING - THERMALTAKE Hard Drives SEAGATE 1TB -ST31000528AS - AHCI MODE - AS SATA Internet Speed 600KBPS Other Info MICROSOFT XBOX 360 CONTROLLER |

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 ... | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number WALLONN7 / LIN BLACK SERIES II OS Windows 7 Ultimate x64 SP1 CPU AMD PHENOM II X6 1090T 3.2GHz Motherboard GIGABYTE GA-890FXA-UD7 Memory 8GB G.SKILL RIPJAWS - F3-10666CL7D Graphics Card SAPPHIRE ATI RADEON HD 5870 VAPOR X OC Sound Card REALTEK DOLBY HOME THEATER Monitor(s) Displays LED LG W2486L Screen Resolution 1080p Keyboard MICROSOFT DIGITAL MEDIA KEYBOARD 3000 - USB Mouse MICROSOFT BASIC OPTICAL MOUSE 2.0 - USB PSU ZALMAN ZM1000-HP 1000W Case THERMALTAKE XASER VI VG4000SWA Cooling 140MM x3 / 120MM x1 AIR COOLING - THERMALTAKE Hard Drives SEAGATE 1TB -ST31000528AS - AHCI MODE - AS SATA Internet Speed 600KBPS Other Info MICROSOFT XBOX 360 CONTROLLER |
