It's not sticky keys
It's not the keyboard, it does this on 3 different ones
It's not the motherboard
It's not a virus or malware
Windows 7 is up to date
Drivers SHOULD be up to date
Basically about 15 minutes after rebooting the shift key will either not work when held down to capitalize something or use a different character, or it will work when I don't want it to, or it will turn on and off rapidly so SeNtenCeS GEt TypEd LiKe THiS. It seems to be pretty random.
I have also tried disabling the use of both shift keys via the registry and mapping shift to a different key. Same thing happens somehow. I am totally stumped and this is really making some tasks unbearable.
when the shift key is stuck "held down" holding it on the keyboard down for ~5 seconds fixes it temporarily for about 30 seconds?
after about an hour the shift key is stuck pretty much for ever until reboot.
