You are using a UK keyboard that is configured as a U.S. keyboard (or
Vice versa).

To fix this, go to control panel | Region and language. Click on the
Keyboards and languages tab and then change keyboards. Choose the right
keyboard (American or British).

If the correct keyboard is not displayed, click Add and Add.

    I have gone through a recent updates installed referencing the KB numbers on the Microsoft Update site and have been unable to find everything related to the keyboard.  The prediction of keyboard has been deleted for good, and can if so someone please tell me why (I'm guessing maybe copyright restrictions).

    I have also a problem with the keyboard on the screen in which if I use it to type in an application, like IE and then move to another application, such as notepad as soon as I move the cursor of the mouse on any part of the keyboard it will switch back to the last app I was typing in, in this example, IE.  This does not happen every time, but it happens about 80% of the time.

    Thanks for your help.

    I had this same problem!  I had to find a way to fix it on my microsoft technical support couldn't figure it out for me lol...

    In any case, I discovered that text prediction was only available if the tablet-pc options where it is installed.

    To do this, go to control panel > programs > turn on or off windows features > then make sure that Tablet PC components is enabled (you may need your windows for this disc)

    That's what fixed it for me... FYI, if you have Windows 7 Basic your isn't text prediction.  If the above doesn't work not the only other problem you have is that your display language is not installed.

    To fix this go to the control panel > clock, language and region > Change Display Language > install/uninstall languages

    I hope this helps!

    Probably not.

    I am not sure, but it seems that either the battery needs

  • Microsoft comfort keyboard and the keyboard function keys Tecra A3

    I have a Tecra A3 and that you use with a Microsoft Comfort keyboard. The problem is that since the keyboard drivers have been the function keys (Fn + F2 to change the power mode) installed now realize the funcitons additional IE Fn + F2 also opens the folder my pictures. The strangest on East turn on map of wireless network or off with the switch located on the front of the laptop. This has the effect to load a copy of MS Outlook whenever it is switch extra.
    I have the latest version of Microsoft IntelliType Pro (version 5.20.412.0)

    Any idea on how to solve this problem?

    Hello

    Sorry, but you haven't explained do you have this problem now, using laptop or other external keyboard.

    If the problem persists with the help of an external one I think that you can not use combinations of keys FN + FX of Toshiba. Each external keyboard is specific and in my opinion, you should see s operating manuals and check also all additional functions. I'm also sure that you are able to set up some special keys on your own.

    The problem with the WLAN mixer is very strange. Try to delete the specific Microsoft software and check if the feature is as before.

  • Mouse Microsoft Wireless Comfort Keyboard 4000 and 5000 laser will not work with Windows 7. Is there a fix for this problem?

    I recently bought a new computer with Windows 7 installed and much to my dismay found my Microsoft Wireless Comfort Keyboard 4000 and Wireless Laser Mouse 5000 are not compatible with Windows 7.  If no fix that means I have to start avery good keyboard and mouse I used comfortable for a long time.

    When you try to load from the disk, the message informed me that it was not compatible and use the automated system to find a fix has not produced an answer.  My keyboard and mouse are in great shape and it is not necessary for me to replace it with a new one from a material point of view.

    The drivers for both devices on the drive that you are probably older versions, you should be able to download the latest drivers for Windows 7 in the pages below, you will need to choose which version of Windows 7, you are running, that is, 32-bit or 64-bit.

  • Combo sculpt comfort keyboard/mouse Microsoft - mouse problem driver windows 7

    Just bought a new combo desktop Microsoft Sculpt comfort (keyboard and mouse). I have a problem with the mouse in Windows 7.

    This mouse has the button scan blue on the left where you can drag upward or down and click. I have this attached to a Dell E6520 laptop.

    In windows 8 the slide it towards the bottom of the function pulls the top of the list of open windows. In Windows 7, it's the browser's "back" button. I installed the latest microsoft mouse and keyboard software 2.3.

    When I first installed the drive, everything works as expected. Suddenly the button works like the browser's "back" button. A few hours later, or after a reboot slide down begins to open the windows instead. The only way to fix is to uninstall the driver and re install. I tried the USB in USB ports and all are working the same.

    How can I solve this problem? I called Microsoft support and they said to return the system and replace it. It is not a hardware problem and return it will do no good.

    Any help would be useful.

    Thank you

    Sorry, but your problem is not easy to understand. After reading these two sentences, it is not easy to tell if there is a general problem with the keyboard or what.
