Keyboard question - Shift Button only Capitalizes one Letter

[4X4]

WTF is up with my right shift button? Sometimes it only capitalizes the first letter when i hold it to type an acronym, and other times (like back there when I typed 'i') it doesn't work at all. The button feels fine. I think I've screwed up a setting. Win XP on an HP laptop... Help please! This is friggin annoying.

I never even knew there was a Right shift button- I guess I never properly learnt to type.

Perhaps you turned on sticky keys? Press the left shift 5 times in very quick succession (I'm not joking). See if that changes anything. I believe that it is an accessibility setting to help people type.

Pressing it too many times caused the current sticky keyboard problem - let's not make the situation worse now.
