Holding down shift key for more than 8 seconds will lock the keyboard and it will stop responding. But if you keep pressing keys for few seconds you would be able to type in but it will be very slow.
Plus, it will produce a nasty sound.

To get around this, go to start and then settings, then control panel and then finally accessibility options. Make sure all the 3 boxes are unchecked.

Unlock keyboard for a Acer AS7540-1284

The Keyboard is locked? Or do you mean maybe the mouse pointer is locked? Look on your keyboard and see if you see anything that resembles a mouse touch pad. Some systems will lock the touch pad, but it can be unlocked by hitting a combination of keys, such as holding the FN key + the key with the touchpad icon.

How to take off keyboard laptop acer 5670 ?

Hi there !

It is easy remove the laptop keyboard for acer and here's how to remove the keyboard.

Use philip screw driver and pointed knife to remove the lock buttons located in both left side and right side, and top side of the keyboard. You have to start removing the lock from the top side and then in left and right side. Each lock button you unlock, you have to flip it not to return the lock. Gentle flip it up not to damage the ribbon connection at the back of the keyboard. Once you see the ribbon connector, release the lock and remove the ribbon connector. That it and it is finish. Do what ever you. If defective, replace it and if it dirty, clean it gentle.

I hope it helps you and Good Luck.
