@Enda_OC98 Welcome to HP Community!

I understand that you are unable to turn off the caps lock key on your computer.

Don’t worry, I’d love to help!

In order that I may provide you with an accurate solution, I will need a few more details

• When was the last time the computer was working fine?
• Have you made any software or hardware changes on the computer?
• Have you performed any troubleshooting steps before posting?

Meanwhile, I recommend you to use the on-screen keyboard and turn off the caps lock and check. To make sure whether it is hardware or a software issue please run a test on the keyboard.

Follow the steps in the below article to run the test on the keyboard.

Hi,

To answer your questions;

• I just purchased the laptop and has been like this since I bought it.
• No as stated its new, so no updates.
• I haven't really done anything, I only noticed the problem 2 days after I bought it so I Factory Reset it to see it would help but it didn't.

I turned on the On-Screen Keyboard and turned off the caps lock and the light stayed on.

I also completed a quick test using the HP PC Hardware Diagnostics for Windows app and it returned an all pass.

Do you think its hardware or software?
