    Hi All,
    I cant find the place on my Win7 64 bit PC to put off the function of the left shift key in combination with the "T" and "P" and "G" key, i did not no what it put on at the first place! So if want to put here a "T" i must use the right shift key! With the left won it opens a window instead!
    So who has a idea?

    Regards Tom

    Not sure I understand. Letf Shift and "T" and "P" and "G" key should give you a Capital T,P,G...

    HI Steve,

    Your right it should! But thats only when i am using the Right Shift key!
    With the left i got many things, depending on the second key!
    "!" Brings up firefox
    @#$%^&*() Did not show up
    QWER is working
    "T" brings up the little window on the taskbar of firefox at the moment
    YUIO is working
    "P" brings up window of the choice menu from the screen output
    {}ASDF is working
    "G" Hi lite a gadget on the screen, everytime i push a other won is hi lited.
    HJKL: "ZXCVBN is working
    "M" is not but i cant see what that does.
    <>? is working
    So i think some program trigger it, but i cant find the won.
    It could be that the keyboard is broken to of course.
    Hope there is some reset for keyboards.
    Thanks for the reply.

    Regards,

    Tom

    You have to disable the hot-key function that you have installed with your Mouse.

    Hi Hawk,

    That did the trick, opened the keyboard, could not see any harm but cleaned the thin sides with a soft clothe, with a little alcohol, and put it back to getter.
    It appears that the left shift act like the windows key that is near. But it is working fine again. And NO i did not spill won of my Belgium beers on it!!
    Thanks all for the replies!

    Kind Regards,

    Tom :):):)
