Windows 10: Keyboard suddenly having a hard time with pressing keys simultaneously

So about a week ago or longer, I couldn't press as many keys simultaneously (just normal commands like ctrl+space; when I used to let go of ctrl 'space' would also continue to hold, but now it won't) and it's really bothersome. Even other simple keys that used to work easily don't now (like 'g'+'n' (for twitter.)) I've heard things about keyboard 'ghosting' and all the answers were "get a new keyboard" but like. Its attached to the laptop lmao, and it used to be fine. So idk what to do

Help Choosing Gaming Keyboard

Hi guys, just found this forum and looks awesome.

I just bought a Logitech Illuminated Keyboard (this one) and I am about 70% satisfied. I am returning it because they sent me the wrong model number, but I think the model number up from this won't be much different.

What I need in a gaming keyboard:

• WHITE Backlit Keys (multicolor is a plus but has to allow white since I basically only use white)
• Anti-ghosting (preferably 10 keys simultaneous)
• Silent Keypress
• $40 to $80 (used is fine)
• Easy-to press keys
• External color a simple black
• OPTIONAL: Low-profile keys (slim, ultraslim)

What do you suggest? I have been searching for many hours and have a few ideas, but there are mixed reviews.

 

Shift Key and Number key cannot be pressed at the same time.

Hello,

There are several factors why you are unable to use the shortcut keys function such as keyboard settings, or if there is an issue with the keyboard itself. To help you resolve this, kindly try the following suggestions:

• You might have selected an input language other than English. To work around with this, go to
  Control Panel > Region and Language and check. You can also check if your keyboard has a language selection available that may need to be changed.
• We suggest as well that you reset the keyboard layout by reinstalling the language and check if it fixes the issue. Follow the steps below:

• Press Windows+R keys and type intl.cpl. Hit Enter.
  
• Go to Administrative tab and click on
  Change system locale button.
• Select the correct language and country from the drop-down box.
• Navigate to the location tab and check if region settings are appropriate.
• Apply the changes and Windows will require a reboot.
