If you go to:

computers.listings.ebay.com

you should be able to find a more obedient keyboard.

The one I presently use (bought new) cost $.01 plus $5.00 shipping, so it will not break the bank if your purchase carefully.

If your problem is that when you turn the computer on, it automatically is set up with the caps lock on, then you need to change the BIOS setting that precedes the loading of the Operating System. When you first turn the machine on, you will find a message that says what keystroke(s) to use to interrupt the normal sequence.

Then you will be taken to the BIOS settings and if you search around you will see a setting which is:

CAPS LOCK (presently set to ON) which you need to turn to OFF
Then follow the instructions to save the changed setting.

Then you can leave the BIOS facility and load the system normally and the caps lock thereafter will not automatically be on at the time of loading the system.

Namaste!
