laptop - Shift + Comma (

I'm not sure if this is a hardware problem or not, but in order to type the "<" character, I have to hold down shift+comma and then release shift before releasing comma. For all other keys, (!"£$%^^&*()?@~}{ etc..) I can just hold down shift and press the key I want to output.



This is VERY annoying when you're a Web Developer like me and need the "<" character all the time.



As per usual, I have updated the drivers and have ran a Windows Update and BIOS update. Nothing has helped.



Running Windows 8.1 (also not working in Ubuntu Live CD) on a i7 Processor, GT 650M, 8GB RAM Asus Laptop. I've contacted them and they're not sure what the problem is, and suggest I return it as it has a malfunctioning keyboard. If anyone has any other theories, that would be great!!




Does anyone know what it could be?



Much appreciation!



EDIT: Also, keyboard layout is correctly set to UK Layout.
