This yields miraculously appearing capital letters...<BR /><BR />Has anyone encountered a similar problem yet? Is this a hardware problem?<BR />This kinda sucks, because the Sony support will work on the laptop for over a week again, which I would like to avoid...<BR /><BR />Thanks a lot in advance!<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 26 Jul 2006 14:54:12 GMT https://community.sony.no/t5/pcs-accessories/vgn-bx195sp-keypress-in-text-fields-has-it-type-quot-by-itself/m-p/6000#M92538 Shimmergloom 2006-07-26T14:54:12Z Re: VGN-BX195SP - keypress in Text fields has it type "by itself" https://community.sony.no/t5/pcs-accessories/vgn-bx195sp-keypress-in-text-fields-has-it-type-quot-by-itself/m-p/6002#M92539 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Maybe, it 's a virus.<BR /><BR />Have you a <S>good</S> antivirus installed?<BR /><BR />Try to scan your whole system with an antivirus,<BR />it's very strange for a keyboard to do something like that!<BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Wed, 26 Jul 2006 16:29:07 GMT https://community.sony.no/t5/pcs-accessories/vgn-bx195sp-keypress-in-text-fields-has-it-type-quot-by-itself/m-p/6002#M92539 fabio81 2006-07-26T16:29:07Z Re: VGN-BX195SP - keypress in Text fields has it type "by itself" https://community.sony.no/t5/pcs-accessories/vgn-bx195sp-keypress-in-text-fields-has-it-type-quot-by-itself/m-p/6005#M92540 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>McAfee AntiVirus 8 Enterprise running on it with up-to-date virus definitions... no problem on the viral front <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":disappointed_face:">😞</span><BR /></P></BODY></HTML> Thu, 27 Jul 2006 07:11:12 GMT https://community.sony.no/t5/pcs-accessories/vgn-bx195sp-keypress-in-text-fields-has-it-type-quot-by-itself/m-p/6005#M92540 Shimmergloom 2006-07-27T07:11:12Z Re: VGN-BX195SP - keypress in Text fields has it type "by itself" https://community.sony.no/t5/pcs-accessories/vgn-bx195sp-keypress-in-text-fields-has-it-type-quot-by-itself/m-p/6009#M92541 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><P>Ooops!
