Keyboard problems

Hi,

I am having troubles with my computer. As i type the font
goes to capitals but my Caps Lock isnt on (i pressed it
twice to check) and my font is Times New Roman and i have
tried another keyboard. Is it my computer or would it be
the program

I don't know if it's the same issue, but I used to have an old keyboard, and sometimes the Shift key would "stick", but the physical key would pop back up. I'd have to tap the Shift-key a couple times to "unstick" it.

I'm not saying that it's the same thing, but I know that once in a while, tapping both shifts helped me once in a while.

Hope that helps...

It's also possibly you fumbled a Shift+A and got Ctrl+Shift+A, which applies
the All Caps formatting.
