Hello everyone,
I have a huge problem with my windows 8
The system suddenly flips everything
Caps lock on = small letters
Caps lock off = capital letters
Numbers = symbols
windows key doesn't work
when i click on a webpage on google chrome it opens in a new window
in games (I play league of legends) keyboard keys dont even work
when i select files (on desktop for example) it automatically auto selects all as if i am clicking shift while choosing

I have an HP laptop with windows 8 64-bit system
Please note that this happens randomly at random times and last for a few minutes but sometimes i have to restart my pc to get rid of it.
thanks in advance :)

That sounds like it could be extremely frustrating!

One of your shift keys is most likely being lightly touched down. More than likely they are getting kind of sticky or old or something. If you know how to clean your keyboard keys I would suggest this for at least the shift keys.

Try an external keyboard, see if the same thing happens.
