One way to tell is to set a high autorepeat rate (and a low autorepeat delay), either in the Keyboard section in /etc/XF86Config or with 'kbdcontrol -r fast' if you don't use X, and see if they revert to normal when the LEDs flash. If they do, it means your keyboard is spuriously resetting, which probably indicates a hardware malfunction (either of the keyboard itself - try a different keyboard - or of the keyboard connector on the motherboard).
