ERRRR how did you get the 'b' and 'd' to work on your original post?
Buy a new keyboard, they are cheap enough or pull it apart and give the substrate surface with a light cloth.
Flip it over and give it a good shake... you'll be amazed at the amount of crumbs and eye lashes that come out... maybe a staple or something is shorting across two tracks...
That doesn't sound like an issue you could have with multiple keyboards... I think your doing something wrong...
Posting via phone sucks. P,0,r,n are working fine but same issue with two keyboards, it's got me stuffed.
Steve.. strip down. Bath in distilled water for about 15 minutes and then clean with a brush (with components still submerged in distilled water). Dry components at room temperature. When fully dried, reassemble and use. Should fix the problem. :)
Caps works with shift 8utton, no caps lock on any letters. No 8 or _ (souns like) knee .

It could be worse - you could be living in Japan where the keyboard layout of non-ABC characters is all different and doesn't work with English OS and you can only buy Japanese keyboards here and can't buy from Amazon.com because they can't export technology vital to the security of the nation... and - sharks.
Maybe time for a new computer...... If it's run out of b&d's 
Or it's a laptop try recharging, that often put more letters in......
