You can not get an upper case "K" when you use right shift or get a question mark. Nothing appears on screen when they are pressed. Any suggestions?




Edit: I forgot, when you first turn it on the keyboard acts as if "+" is constantly being entered, and it continues to do so until you push backspace.

Yes I can. ;)

The first thing you should do is try another keyboard with your PC. If it results in the same problems, then you might be unlucky and have a mainboard problem. Otherwise it might be a simple dodgy keyboard problem.

Did you spill anything on your keyboard recently? Most of my keyboard problems have come from spilling beer/water/coke/etc. on it. I go through about a keyboard every six months because I eventually spill something on it - and it's usually beer. Typically, the symptoms involve gibberish appearing on screen when you try to type something normal.

It works with a different keyboard.
I haven't spilled anything on it, so I'm wondering whether or not I can simply clean the keyboard to fix it.
