  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.

• Disable the Dvorak keyboard type option left?

  I use an HP with Vista Home Premium, SP2 computer.

  I had a nephew to use my computer for a while and he installed the Dvorak keyboard type option left just to see what it was. Now, we cannot uninstall or disable it.  We went through the steps in linguistic environment several times and for each user on the computer (there are 2 more guest account, where the power is off). HOWEVER, the Dvorak option appears on the default login screen and I am required to change the layout of EVERY single time that I connect. It's maddening!  Is there something beyond delete language option and the keyboard that can solve this problem?  How can it be so simple to install this option, but it is almost impossible to get rid of?

  I even bought another keyboard (USB) and let that settle at the start, but the default Dvorak layout is always making fun of me. Please help me find my sanity.  Thank you.

  Hello

  ·        Since when are you facing this problem?

  You can try to connect an external keyboard and check if the same thing happens on this as well. You may need to change the configuration of the keyboard and check if that helps, follow the link given below to do the same.

• How to disable or change the General the keyboard shortcut "CTRL + Shift" that switches between multiple keyboard entries?

  I use the Switzerland of Windows 7 version in English on a German keyboard (QWERTZ).  The general shortcut to switch between QWERTY and QWERTZ keyboard's CTRL + SHIFT. When you use Excel, I use this combination all the time with arrows to navigate large worksheets.  If I start a movement, only by pressing CTRL + SHIFT, but do not press the arrow, I find keyboard layout changes.  Is it possible to change the General shortcut or for otherwise, delete or disable this feature?

  Hi Thalwil,

  What is the number and model of your computer?

  You cannot use the shortcuts by default windows to other applications unless the application has been designed accordingly.

• Satellite C50-A-1DV - keyboard, type multiple letters

  Hello

  I was wandering if someone can help out me.
  My laptop keeps typing additional letters.

  So when I type we'll say the word dogg. "dog", I'm frustrated
  Someone can tell me if I need to send this back to the store, or is their something I can try to solve the problem.

  Partition is an example of line I'm not such a bad speller.
  It is howw is just my laptop to type please help me because I am pulling my hair out.

  Thank you

  I am running windows 8.1

  Connect the external USB keyboard and check if the same problem of double letters appear using this external USB keyboard.

  If the symptoms of double letters will not appear with the external keyboard, the internal computer keyboard must be faulty.

  This means that the internal keyboard needs to be replaced to solve the problem.
  But if even the double letter appears using the external keyboard, then the keyboard controller (part of the motherboard) may be affected.

  Not quite sure if this could be corrected by BIOS updated, but where your BIOS is not updated, try updating the BIOS.

  Otherwise, I recommend you contact the authorized Toshiba maintainer for a control.

• keyboard types wrong letters in mozilla tried to reinstall, new keyboard works normally in opera, chrome, safari, does not

  types of keyboard wrong letters I can press the e key and each time a different letter appear in Mozilla, types of keyboards, normally in Google Chrome, Safari, Opera and IE I have no language bar (the only keyboard language), no combination of keys does work, Ctrl + Shift, etc., Windows 8

  started only recently
  

  have reinstalled, uninstalled, rebooted, etc..

  The combination of default keys to rotate the disposal is the Ctrl + Shift or Alt + Shift key combination that is used in Firefox to the menu items, so it is quite possible to accidentally changing the layout.

  To avoid an unintended switch, assign a specific keystroke (Alt / Ctrl + Shift + number) to select keyboard layouts and remove the key combination to rotate (Alt + Shift or Ctrl + Shift) layouts

• Keyboard, type the letters wrong when you play

  When I start a game on my computer without running as an administrator, he begins to act really weird. All the letters stop working. That would happen, that if I press q, he's input 1. If I have another letter of the alphabet input, it will correspond to another number, but the weird part is if I try to write a message in the game, the type of letters about what they are supposed to type.  I don't know why this is happening, everything was working fine until I recently updated my laptop. It'll be great if someone could help me with this problem.

  Hi all

  Check the following suggestions:

  (1) confirm that your keyboard is set to the English language.
  Go to the control panel. Click the icon "Region and language".
  If the setting appears to be in a foreign language, change it to English/U.S.
  Click on keyboard and language, make sure the keyboard language is set to English.
  Click on the keyboard to change and in the general tab, make sure you have the appropriate language.

  (2) check if your NumLock key is enabled. If so, the key to disengage.

  (3) run a litmus test of characters using the Diagnostics of keyboard Microsoft (MSKEY) program. While in the MSKEY program, press multiple keys in order to ensure that they are the same keys identified in the MSKEY window.
  To run the MSKEY diagnostic test, go to the Start button. In the start search box, type mskey, and press ENTER.
  Then start typing the keys that are not type correctly and see what is returned during the test.

  Please let us know if you were able to identify all the problems.

  Sincerely,.

• Keyboard types wrong characters and bizarre on Tecra A2

  I got with my Tecra A2 keyboard;

  When I hit the 'e' key I get this: 22:06 07/27/2007;

  When I hit the key 'a' I get 1za 1za 1za.

  When I type 'z' I get 1za 1ZA 1za and so on.

  some keys are fine and I got the right letter. I already checked the regional settings and all is well; I updated my BIOS and I didn't work; I used the CD recovery and I didn't work.
  I went to Device Manager and uninstalled keyboard driver and nothing; I reformatted my HARD drive and nothing; I noticed that when I went into the BIOS and there tried to activate 'FN' and I could not turn on or off; It's off by default;
  I tried FN + F11 or F10 and I did not work. What could be?

  Any help? Someone had the same problem?

  Hello

  sounds like a serious problem of material. You can try the following command to check if just the internal keyboard making trouble or your machine is defective: it just connect an external keyboard (ps2 or usb) and check if you got the same error.

  But these days you have to bring your machine to a service partner chartered local for a checkup of material because I think that your keyboard is faulty and that the hardware components of your machine must be checked.

  Point of here´s a link to find the nearest repairer:

  I use a wired Apple keyboard and the keyboard settings are on PC British. I tried not to change for just British but makes no difference.

• keyboard type

  I have an eMachine with Windows XP Home 32-bit Edition.  Were backward between Windows 7 and 8.  His grandchildren were last on the computer and now keyboard will type not in what either (Notepad, search, run, nothing).  Have tried the three .dll term using copy/paste and still nothing.  Help would be greatly appreciated.

  Hi everyone, problem has been resolved.  Problem is I don't know how or what fixed it.  All this time I had a problem, the computer was indexing.  It took days to finish.

  Today, I went to new keyboards.  When I plugged a different keyboard, it wouldn't work, and the mouse works more also.  I stopped and restarted the computer and it finds the keyboard and everything works now.

  I am happy.  And please try your best to help me.
