Gateway keyboard shift key creating special... (by 3 users)

try check some other keys, maybe its pressed down also....

I have the exact same model keyboard and this happens to me. I believe it's a WIndows driver issue, since it doesn't do it on Linux. However, I've come to live with it. It only does it when the key is held down for more than half a second (sometimes). My solution suggestion would be to convert to Linux. Not because I'm a hardcore Linux fan, and I hate everyone that uses Windows, but this is the only way to fix it.

|I have been having the same issue with this keyboard since it was fresh out of the box. Unfortunatly, I replaced it right away with an ergonomic keyboard & didn't think about replacing it. Now that the ergonomic one is busted, I'm stuck with the factory one again with the same problem. I contacted Customer Support & they told me that it was a faulty keyboard & should be replaced. So, basically, there isn't anything you can do but go out & get a new one. If you are still within the one year warrenty, Gateway will replace it for free, so you'd better test out those keyboards right away & replace them immediately if need be!

it happens most when you hit left shift key + any letter key at the exact same time: UUu|U|UuUuU|U|UU\UuU|U\u .... even some back slashes in there from it....
