Problem with Windows 8 a few keyboard keys work the video quality on Skype has reduced

Hello
Recently I installed windows 8 pro in my PC on windows 7, so far I have liked it, but I'll have a few flaws. Please help me solve.

1.
All keys of the keyboard work correctly except '@' key exchanged with the key "" " . and HASH does not instead showing "£" this.

2. after installation of my video quality has become less visible on Skype or when I try to take a picture of my webcam I cannot see the picture which wasn't so much while using windows 7. Without doubt, I need to install something that I don't know.

Help, please.

Thank you.

Hello

Keyboard problem:
If you are in the United Kingdom, your keyboard type is set in the United States , instead of the United Kingdom.
Some of the symbols in your keyboard are reversed.
I had the same problem but I fixed it.
Reach:
Control Panel > region
On the Formats tab, change the Format English (United States)
On the location tab, change home Location for United States.

I can't help you with the rest.

  • Having a problem with Windows Live Mail lock up shortly after the start.

    Having a problem with Windows Live Mail lock up shortly after the start. When I start the Task Manager to end the process, it sometimes freezes and the only way to solve the problem is to disconnect which forces the profile to close. Assuming a corrupted profile, I followed the instructions of Windows support to fix a corrupted profile and copied all the files except ntuser.*. When I try to paste them into the new user profile (all profiles are admins), I get the error message asking if I want to leave to proceed. When I click on continue, all THE files in the profile block "corrupt" to the new one, including ntuser.*, that I was not choosing. Why? If the files are rewritten empty? Tried 3 times, same result. Please notify.

    I think I found it! I went in the Windows Live Forum and found a thread that looked like my problem. He suggested going to msconfig and take off Live Mail list start. I couldn't find it on the list, but the top element was "" default EXE"something of an unknown manufacturer. I took it out of the startup list, and Live Mail works again! Thanks for your help!

  • Problems with windows 7 Facebook scrabble. It changes the sceen and will not load the game. Any ideas?

    Seems to be a problem in windows 7.

    Hello
     

    1. is this a problem with only on this game on facebook?
    2 are you able to access other videos and games on facebook?
    3. what internet browser do you use?
     
    If you use Internet Explorer you can see the steps below.
     
    Method 1.
    Given that most of the games requires the Java runtime library or Adobe flash to work I suggest you to install the Java runtime library on Internet Explorer and Adobe Flash Player.
    a. Update Flash player and Java Flash:
    I recommend you update Adobe flash player on the website below:
    http://get.Adobe.com/flashplayer/
    b. also download and install the library Java Runtime from the link below:
    https://www.Java.com/en/
     
    Method 2.
    a. If the problem persists, you can optimize Internet Explorer.
    See the link below for more information.
    How to optimize Internet Explorer?
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/936213
     
    b. If nothing works to solve the issue try reset Internet Explorer.
    How to reset Internet explorer:
    http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/923737
    Note: After resetting Internet explorer you will need to install Java runtime library and Adobe flash again.
    WARNING:
    Please note that reset the settings of Internet Explorer running resets all of the settings defined by the user, including those established by the installed extensions, toolbars and other add-ons for IE by default. This includes all the security, privacy and settings area. Also this will erase browsing history, delete all temporary Internet, cookies, form data files and especially all the passwords.

  • Problems with codec... need help to open the video file...

    · What happens when you try to play the video file? You get the error message? Yes, error msg - windows media player cannot play the file. The player might not support the file type or does not support the codec used to compress the file.
    · What is the file format? 3GPP
    · The question is limited to this video file? Yes, all the videos copied from my cell and downloaded on PC, the problem occurs. Note all the copied images have no problems.
    · Did you do changes on the computer before the show? None.

    Any further suggestions? I fear, if I should try a codec download from the internet and that you and the measures to be taken.

    ... Any further suggestions? I fear, if I should try a codec download from the internet and that you and the measures to take...

    I would recommend that you download and install K-Lite Codec pack from here.


    Download K-Lite Codec Pack

    Get either the Standard or complete package to halfway to the bottom of the page. There is a package tailor-made for 64-bit if your Windows 7 is that the flavor. The 64-bit package is not always necessary, as most of the programs are still 32-bit.

  • Big problem with Windows XP, IE8

    I have a big problem with windows xp. Many things do not work as they had passed him. For example the personal setting are not recalled from session to session. IE 8 does not funtion properly (icons on the desktop are re-arraged, toolbars cannot be deleted or I'm unable to load pages from the internet). Programs do not work, the files will not open. When I look at my hard C disk folders and files are hidden.

    Recently, IE has been upgraded to IE8 and I installed Norton 360 but I don't mean that they caused the problem. However, whenever the Norton scan executes a "error 8 506 421" stands up and says me that I have to uninstall and re install Norton.» But I lost the ADMIN privileges so I am not able to uninstall or go back to a restore point.

    I can't go in safe mode. Pressing F8 takes me to the quick screen C not the windows safe mode screen. I can't go in safe BOOT mode. INI or the other.

    If I switch to another user, everything seems fine but I don't have ADMIN privileges with this user to be able to make changes.

    Is this a problem with norton? IE8? A virus?

    Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance,

    Lost without a computer

    It sounds like you have a corrupted for your user to administrator user profile.

    You may be able to recover using System Restore to restore to a point in time before your problem.  Based on the F8 key, you bring in a command prompt window, try to start restoring the system to the command prompt by using the following procedure:

    "How to start the System Restore tool by using the option of safe mode with prompt theCommand in Windows XP"

    <>https://support.Microsoft.com/kb/304449/en-us >

    If this does not work, you can still be able to recover by performing a check disk to your command prompt window operation (after that you press the F8 key).  Enter the following command:

    CHKDSK c: /R

    If you are in the Recovery Console, it can simply begin, or you may need to restart before it will start.  Corrupt profiles are most often caused by the Corruption of system files, so a chkdsk operation should be performed little matter how you end up recovery.  Note that this can take a few hours to run.

  • I don't even know what to call this problem with Windows 7! Can someone please read and help?

    Hi all

    What is c?

    I have half a dozen problems with Windows 7 right now, but let's start with the most irritating.  Screens disappear and reappear.

    I'll open a window and then open another (at the same time) for a reason, and if I don't have my mouse entirely on whatever the window, it "disappears".  That is, it will become transparent with just sort of 'framework' around him.  The content is gone.  But they come back.  It makes the idea behind 'Windows' laughable.

    And try to block and the copy is a nightmare of one window to the other.  Or even on the same page.  I try to block something and move away, and the "block" disappears.

    I thought it might be my mouse, which is your ordinary Microsoft Optical Mouse 2V.0, I went to devices and printers and formatted my mouse (I've never done this before) and my Microsoft Keyboard and recorded.  Nothing wrong with the keyboard.  The mouse just kept screwing as it did before, and I used your basic standard settings - nothing fancy or different.

    Now I write in this little place and nothing is to move, the mouse behaves - what IS IT?

    I am getting this problem in Windows 7 because honestly, I have no idea where else to put it.

    And I have just started with the problems.  Can you please, please, please help?

    I can't help but think that all the problems are related, so I'll put one little summary of what else is happening.

    1 out of nowhere part, I got a notice saying that I had to change the settings to allow Windows update immediately and without my permission (I think that's what he said and I know that there is a setting in devices and printers? or something like that where I allow edits without review)

    2. I can't convince my printer there is NO residential group and that I am the administrator and the only person using the computer.  This screw with my settings (wired) network too.

    3. I have a four-in-one printer (print, copy, scan and fax).  I am at home lately and will be years apparently, so I decided that I wanted to get the printer scanner and fax.  He was already printing and copying.  I turned off, unplugged and did not know that I had to uninstall all software and then reinstall it.  I don't have the time to do it again; I want a clean computer before you set up the printer.  Well, it seems to create small problems in the world.  I keep getting directed to devices and printers, but I want to read all the information before I uninstall just in case.

    4 modules!  They are the bane of my existence.  I do not understand what they are doing when I go and look at them individually. I tried to use IE10 without addons and it's just a big headache.

    5 constantly getting a yellow banner at the bottom of my screen asking me if I want to run * some * and I wanted to know the risks involved.

    6. constantly asked about Active X.  What is it and what does want of me?

    7. all of a sudden an hour ago, my computer has decided to go to "sleep" mode and wants me to change user for myself and when I do, it says it is locked, but I hit the beautiful image and it opens on the regular Windows screen.  WHY?  I don't use a screen saver and I got 20 minutes sleep mode which is just the entire dark screen until I touch the mouse.  No more!

    Guys do you see why I'm going crazy?  Help, please!  I spend all my days this last week and one before that trying to move things.  All this because I wanted my printer to scan.
