XP has the option to enable/disable StickyKeys. Pressing the SHIFT key 5 times turns on StckyKeys. StickyKeys let you use the SHIFT, CTRL, ALT and Windows Logo keys by pressing one key at a time. You can check if in your case StickyKeys is on by pressing SHIFT key 5 times. If it is, click cancel to disable. Sure, it could be something else, but this is the easiest way to find out.
