    Default Control button problems

    Alright folks, so i have a problem here.

    Thing is, that my left control button seems messed up. Randomly, as i press it, my caps lock turns upside-down (off = on and vice versa), scroll becomes horizontal and all links open a new browser or window. I've been browsing my keyboard configurations, but nothing seems to change there. It isn't browser-related either, since it can also happen offline.
    Tapping the control button enough will eventually reverse this, and everything becomes normal again. It's still a pain in the ass and it usually takes quite a while of jerking my control.

    While i have my doubts that it's related to the keyboard itself, since none of this happened until i bought my current one (Logitech K200). However, if someone has an idea that it might be caused by something else, feel free to share your info if there's anything i could fix it with.

    Try going to system preferences/control panel and then mouse (control). You may be able to alter your mouse there.

    If not, and it is keyboard related, get a technician or a computer geek friend in.

    Done, but no settings change when it happens.

    This might be worthless information but, I think FL studio (which I know you use a lot) will set the scroll lock and caps lock keys for different stuff. Maybe that has anything to do with it?

    I think you mix me up with someone else (Cody?), since i've never had FL installed, i've never used it for a second and probably never will.
