Pc Problem

DarkRyu · 15-01-2006, 17:34

I Held Shift Down For Too Long And Now My Pc Has Gone Mad

Everything I Type Is In Caps

My Mouse Buttons Have Become Inverted

My Scroll Wheel No Longer Works

When I Click On Anything It Selects Everything Instead Of Just The Icon I Am Clicking On

All Of My Number Keys And Other Keys With Duel Function Are Stuck In The Second Key Set Instead Of The Main One

When I Click On Hyperlinks It Opens A Whole New Page Instead Of Just Loading It In My Current One

Does Anyone Know What Might Of Happed As I Have Absolutly No Idea

Oh And Sorry About The Caps

you have activated the accessibilty features of windows, you can disable this feature in control panel. its suposed to make it easier for poeople who have dificulty using the keyboard due to disabilty etc .

ANY IDEA HOW I TURN IT ALL OFF? OR WHAT I OPEN TO CHANGE THE SETTINGS?

try giving the keys a bash just in case they are stuck ( classic problem ) or otherwise turn off all the accessability option as suggested already. I would try giving the ctrl alt and shift keys on both sides of keyboard a good pressing to see if they are stuck in slightly too.

Otherwise if its not one of the accessability options and its not a sticky key then unplug the keyboard and plug it back in again.

sounds like a classic sticky keys problem (either as in the software, or as in the actual key being sticky)

I'm not even sure I want to know how you guys get sticky keyboards >.<
