Answer 1

Sounds like the Shift key is stuck. If not physically stuck at least the computer is getting the shift key signal all the time.

I think everything you describe can be explained by this.

When you boot are you getting any kind of keyboard error?

Try pulling the battery and rebooting.

Answer 2

I Am A little Disgusted With Ibm's T Series, Thinkpads,

I Get more T series in here, That Any other..

i Replaced Keyboards, Because, of Problems Related to yours..

but, it may be your keyboard layout, is being confused with anothers...

so try hooking up a USB keyboard, and if it works fine,
then you most likely need to replace your built in Keyboard..
