Hello and welcome to PCHF tdotmill.

Let see if we can help you out.

Try the following:
  • Try change the keyboard layout within control panel, if you are using windows xp go to START - CONTROL PANEL - REGIONAL AND LANGUAGE OPTIONS - Languages - Details. Then change the keyboard to English (united states) and see whether it works.
  • Try and disconnect then reconnect your keyboard to the PC.
  • If you boot your PC into safemode does it work normally?
  • Do you have another keyboard that you can test on this PC?

Re-boot youre laptop , keep tapping f8 and a menu will appear where you can select safemode.

What type of laptop are you using?

You need to make sure that you haven't enabled Numlock because this can cause these sorts of problems.
