Left Arrow Key Stuck (or is it?)

As the subject suggests, I have a computer that is having difficulty
with the left arrow key. To be more specific, it will randomly act as
if it is "stuck", but the key and keyboard itself are fine. The
keyboard works in another machine with no difficulty, and other
keyboards exhibit the same problem with this computer.

The keyboard in question is a Logitech Media Elite keyboard (
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823126178 ) and
has the latest drivers for XP Pro, which I've reinstalled at least
twice - the drivers, not Windows. I have nothing else installed that
should affect keyboard functionality, and have made great pains to
ensure any IME or Accessability options (like StickyKeys) are
disabled.

This hasn't always happened, but no major hardware changes have
occured prior to this issue occuring by at least a month or so, and
this tends to manifest itself every two days, max. Sometimes, even
when I have been away from the keyboard, and am not actively using it.

I have searched everywhere as thoroughly as I can, but I am convinced
it is not the keyboard itself, as most search results have been
suggesting. It has actually been a tie between "stuck key" and
"StickyKeys enabled", but who's counting?

Any help at all would be very much appreciated!
