Keyboard typing not what it should
Hey guys! I have got a weird problem with my laptop! when i am typing on keyboard, and i press certain keys, it is not typing what it should. I checked the keyboard configuration, it is on US standard, it is not British English or something else, I read somewhere that it can happen because of BIOS, so I updated it.
thanks

Which keys? What are they typing (if anything) when you press them, and what should they be typing? On many laptops, some of the keys are multifunctional. Check to see that they are in the correct mode. | | My System Specs | | Computer type PC/Desktop

It could be that you have pressed your <shift> key too long. It then automatically changes keyboard settings. You can reset by clicking on the small keyboard icon on the lower right in your taskbar and choosing your preferred keyboard setting again. If this IS what happened, you can disable these functions by pressing <SHIFT> 5 times and disable the settings in the screens that follow. Read those carefully before you choose... | | My System Specs | | System Manufacturer/Model Number custom build
