    Intel Speed Shift Technology Skylake

    You just need a Skylake CPU and ThrottleStop, once turned on speed shift you can exit the software as unclewebb said above.

    If I type shift+2 it displays " and when I type shift+" it displays @ its reversed how to fix it

    Hi,



    I suggest you to follow the steps below and check if it helps.

    This issue may occur if you have installed language pack more than 1 or 2 in your system, I suggest you to check the language settings and check if it helps.

    Follow the steps below.


    • Open the Start menu and select "Settings

    • Select "Time & language

    • Select "Region & language

    • Set your preferred default language

    • Click your language

    • Click the "Options" button.

    • Remove any keyboard layouts you don't want to use.

    • Add your desired layout if it isn't listed and check if it helps.


    Keep us posted on this issue so that we can assist you better.

    shift + 2 not working

    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!
