All keys on keyboard are locked

Asked Dec 26, 2006, 08:35 AM — 7 Answers
All the keys on the keyboard are locked. I have a feeling that I may have held a key down too long while thinking/typing. How can I fix this?

Then how did you type your Question? Ha! Ha! I'm sorry I can't help, but had to pass on the response I got when I read your question to a friend. I realize you must be using a different PC or keyboard,

Thanks, found the solution. Hold shift down for 10 seconds, restart computer.

Funny comment- yes, I was using another computer.

I do this all the time, holding down the shift key while I muse on my next word. Through all the versions of Windows I gave owned, I have found that simply re-booting corrects the problem.
