Caps lock doesn't work.

more options

My caps lock doesn't work. Whenever I press it, the cursor disappears from the type box on a website or whatever I'm typing information on. I then have to use my mouse to click back to where it should have been. In the meantime, I have been using the "shift" key to capitalise. This isn't just confined to Firefox, but to IE, Word etc. How do I solve this problem?

Hello again, iamjayakumars!

I didn't press the "shift" key for a long time. Just a brief period when need be to capitalise one word or more. This caps lock problem occurs everytime I turn the laptop on.
