    Is this a laptop by any chance, or a desktop?

    That's strange. Try this: hit both SHIFT keys at the same time twice, close the On-Screen Keyboard, then try opening it again. Let me know if this yields any results.

    Hi rl1979,

    This may be indicative of keyboard failure. What you can do is switch to a known good keyboard and see if this would work. Alternatively, try to unplug the keyboard and plug it back into a different port. This seems to me a hardware issue, so attempt this before you continue.

    Best of luck!
