I have problem withmy keyboard I dont know how to solve

you know the key that makes the letters go capitals?

well I use it a lot for my autocad cos it allows me to
deselect things
the problem is that since yesterday whenever I press the
caps key the mouse gets blocked, it doesnt move, so I cannot
use this feature (deselect objects)

do any of you know why this happens?

using? both on usb?

Much probably it's broken, you should try to buy a new
keyboard, it doesn't cost much after all...

By the way, I didn't know you used autocad for you work,
it's really a nice program if you need to design plans of
houses etc... I learnt to use it a bit at school but that's
not my thing, you must be really expert by using it I
suppose.

i've been here for years and I just now learned that he is
an architect.

nacmat - my roomate is (studying to be) an architect so I'll
ask him if he has any idea why that happens.

this doesnt happen only in autocad

if I am ain a normal windows folder... and try to select few
files, but then I see I wanna deselect one, I used to press
the caps key while clicking on the file to deselect it...
now I cant as the caps key bloks my mouse

time.

I don't know if you're right because currently I'm using
both of them on USB and I have not problems...

none of them is usb

both are wireless and the connection to the cpu is by a
circular plug

i JUST NOTICED THAT IT HAPPENS WITH ANY KEY ACTUALLY

if I press any key with the keyboard, then the mouse stops

if that's the case then you should probably just buy another
keyboard.

yeah, if it's wireless that isn't surprising really. repair
would probably cost you more than a new keyboard and mouse.

Did you try your keyboard and mouse on another pc? Or try to
uninstall the drivers and install them back.

Yeah the drivers is a good next step to take before buying
or replacing anything
