My computer ASUS Windows 8 is to type the wrong symbols.

My computer ASUS Windows 8 is to type the wrong symbols.  for example: E instead of a question mark.  This has happened on a laptop, I had many years ago and I don't know how to solve this problem.  Can someone help me have tried to change the language already in the Panel, tried to hit F9 and F11.  None of these things helped him.

Hello

Please contact Microsoft Community.

This problem may occur if a US-Dvorak keyboard is listed in text Services. The standard keyboard is US, and this must be the only keyboard listed in the Services section of the text of the control panel.

To resolve this issue, remove all instances of keyboards other than the standard American keyboard. To do this, follow these steps.

NOTE: If you press NumLock on the keyboard of some laptops, which makes different characters available when you type. For the keyboard back to its standard functionality, press FUNCTION + NumLock.

  1. Click Start, type Control Panel , and then click Control Panel.
  2. Double-click regional and Language Options.
  3. Click the languages tab.
  4. In the pane of input languages and text Services , click Details.
  5. In the component Services installed , click on any listed keyboard other than US, and then click Remove.
  6. When the confirmation message appears, click Yes.
  7. Repeat step 5 until all the keyboards listed except US are removed.

  • Nine computer running Windows 8-2 accidents in the first day

    Hello world

    Any help with this problem would be greatly appreciated :)
    Yesterday, I bought a new computer running Windows 8. I use the computer mainly for photo editing, so this morning, I installed my copy of Photoshop CS4 on the computer and needed to install an update to the ACR, I downloaded Adobe.
    The first accident occurred that I tried to download the update (Camera Raw 5.7). It is this crash .dmp file - https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=B50D32B2D4102B3F! 187 & authkey =! AHogu8RLIx59Nt4&ithint=file%2c.dmp
    After the reboot, I finished the download of the update, installed and made sure Photoshop was working properly, that it was.
    The second incident took place tonight (Photoshop is not running, no download in progress etc..) It is this crash .dmp file - https://skydrive.live.com/redir?resid=B50D32B2D4102B3F! 188 & authkey =! AJ97jn-_skkL03Y&ithint=file%2c.dmp
    Of course, since this is a brand new computer, I don't expect to be planted at this rate. I assume that the installation of Photoshop or the ACR update caused a few problems (even though nothing I've read has suggested that it should).
    Can someone get any light it? Thanks in advance!

    Hello

    You are going through the exact same thing a user treats here - http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_8-performance/windows-8-crashes-after-entering-sleep-mode/b140bccd-29ae-414b-840c-ed5269c26ea0

    The attached files of the DMP are bug check ACPI_BIOS_ERROR (a5) .

    This bug check indicates that the BIOS Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) computer is not fully compliant with the ACPI specification.

    Error checking A5, {1000, 0, 80001000, 25}

    1000 = ACPI_BIOS_USING_OS_MEMORY.

    ACPI has been a fatal error during the processing of a region of memory operation. The region of operation memory tried memory card which has been attributed to the use of the OS.

    This bug check usually appears in these 2 scenarios:

    1 BIOS bug / damaged and must be resolved with an update or go back to the manufacturer.

    2 Rootkit (not very common).

    Given that you have exactly the same problem and the same HP model, etc... It is a big problem on the part of HP. Contact them and let them know that you want to replace as soon as POSSIBLE, preferably if possible a working model.

    Kind regards

  • installed a keyboard and wireless mouse and the mouse works fine, but the keyboard types the wrong keys! Any ideas? Thank you

    installed a keyboard and wireless mouse and the mouse works fine, but the keyboard types the wrong keys! Any ideas? Thank you

    Wired or wireless - is usually not serious unless the wireless can get more interference.  If the keyboard is close to the receiver which is connected to the computer and you get the strikes hurt - my suggestion is to try first the keyboard on another computer.

    To do this, * not * require you to install specific drivers.  Simply unplug the combo of a computer and in the other and see if the keyboard works correctly.  Then, you can troubleshoot from there.

  • How to type the special symbol by computer hp laptop pavilion g4

    Hello, everyone

    I use a computer hp laptop pavilion g4. Is the keyboard doesn't have the NumLock key

    I want to write several special symbols using a combination of keys (Alt + xxx)

    Please show me how to do it.

    Thank you very much!

    The only other option is to use the virtual keyboard in combination with the laptop keyboard.  You can search online to see a lot of different proposals, rather than posting me here.  Here's just one of the examples.

  • I reformatted my computer dell windows 98 and when came the newspaper in all that came was guest with a password account. I can't connect at all.

    When I was installing windows. updated Shell32.dll at the point. I chose click try again several times and im guessing it worked cause he kept copy of files after that.

    Is this a genuine Windows XP CD?  Your cd may be dirty or damaged, or it can be caused by bad memory.  See here for a list of things that can cause file copy errors: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?id=kb;en-us; Q310064
      
    Run a memory test on the machine, if the RAM is OK and if copy errors persist you can try to install a flat folder.  To install from a flat folder see instructions here: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/315349 and here http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307848/EN-US

  • Windows 8 is installed on the wrong partition

    I just opened my Ideapad u430 and immediately noticed that the windows that OS has been installed on the 500 GB sata drive instead of the SSD. I am sure that the whole point of the SSD part has been to install the OS on it to speed up performance. Tips on how to transfer the OS on the other side of the partition without the original disks?

    Well, no, in my humble OPINION, but you may be able to make it work for your particular needs.

    Size - 24GO - confirms that it is a caching of the road, and the operating system has not been installed on the wrong partition.

  • I use firefox on a computer with Windows XP and Ubuntu, with the card-Firefox profile in a separate, partition do not have to remove the 'blocking of parent' whenever I want to use Firefox.

    I have Firefox in the Windowspartition of my computer and the Linuxpartition from my computer, I have a third partition where I store my personal data, such as my Firefox-profile-map and my download card.
    If I'm not manually delete 'Parent Lock' Firefox will not start it is already an open session.
    It would be better not to have this system of parentlock.

    It would be better to use two separate profiles for each operating system and synchronize data between the two, because there can be other problems as well with the caches that use current versions of Firefox and other files that store the paths of dependent files of the OS.
