    Keyboard: some Shift- combinations do not work from time to time

    When using SHIFT to type !, @, #, $, ( or ) they sometimes do not work. A while later, they may work for a short time. Sometimes the problem does not show up for days. Steps taken so far:

    • The device manager shows no issues.
    • Test programs found nothing or suggest it may be a hardware error.
    • When using on-screen keyboards, there is no issue.
    • The keyboard drivers have been de-installed and automatically re-installed
    • The latest drivers are installed
    • Have removed and re-selected the language keyboards
    Thanks for any help!

    Problems with Logitech keyboard/mouse wireless MK345 Model and MK270. Both the keyboard and mouse are erratic. Batteries fine, plugged and unplugged toggle, then works for a short while.

    Moved pc to a new case keyboard dead

    You need to take this one step at a time. It is a waste of time to go further until you find out why your keyboard is not working. Can you borrow or obtain another keyboard preferably a USB wired one to find out if your keyboard is the problem or not. If another keyboard does not solve the problem the problem lies elsewhere. Remember one step at a time.
