I have a client that has Windows XP Professional. His
Caps Lock gets stuck on and we have to reboot to get it
to turn off. Any suggestions on how to remedy this?

Thank you.

Try the On-screen keyboard:

Keyboard - Microsoft On-Screen Keyboard

Windows XP's accessibility tools include an On-Screen
Keyboard. This tool allows you to type without touching
your keyboard. Select Start, All Programs, Accessories,
Accessibility, On-Screen Keyboard, and up pops a virtual
keyboard. (Click OK to close the informational dialog
box.)

By default, clicking an On-Screen Keyboard letter "types"
it on screen. Or, you can switch to "hover" mode, where
you don't click at all. Select Settings, Typing Mode,
select "Hover to select," set the desired interval, then
click OK. Now, holding your mouse pointer over a key for
the set amount of time "types" that key. To close the On-
Screen Keyboard, click the X in its upper-right corner or
select File, Exit.

Tip: On screen keyboard - Start/Run/OSK

You can also troubleshoot the keyboard you are now using
by going to Start/Control/Printer and Other
hardware/Keyboard/hardware tab/troubleshoot.
