Why doesn't my shift key work?? - mofoeskimo - 08-14-2012

Title says it all... :[ Won't work in regular diablo, or hellfire.

Using a laptop - just tried using a different keyboard as well, to no avail. Can't find anyone else with this problem.

Windows 7, have everything else workin fine.. Arg! Any ideas?

A workaround you can try if you have a MS Intellipoint mouse is to set one of the unused mouse buttons to mimic shift presses. I did this for a while once when my shify key was a bit dodgy.

What's your keyboard locale?
I bet Diablo was never meant to be tested outside of using USA or similar keyboard layouts.

Do you have a special function key or software on your laptop that might enable the shift key for something else by default?
