Hi All.

I have a very odd issue where it looks like a shift key is held down. !"£$%^ instead of 12345 etc.
I have tried changing the settings on sticky keys, changing default language, uninstalling the keyboard, updating the driver, resetting Win10 and even plugging in an external USB keyboard.
Next option is a complete fresh install, which I'm now downloading - but before I go ahead is there anything else I could try?

Thanks in advance!

Num lock is on/off.
That was one of my first thoughts. OSK shows everything is OK with both shift keys too. Annoying really, its been sat in a drawer for months as I bought it as a holiday laptop for light browsing and to play films. I need it now though as I have 3 kids all at home with one PC and the (now dead) laptop between them.
No chance are they going on my rig, they break everything!

Looks like my keyboard is screwed, have disabled it now and am using a plugged in USB keyboard. I didn't realise plugging in an external would not disable the built in board.
Off to search Ebay for a new (old) laptop..
