  1. Never heard of something like that. Either there's something wrong with your computer keyboard or you have a virus.


  2. Uh, huh.  I can think of a few things, one of them is a practical joke. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:KB_Un... this is what your keyboard should look like.  If it doesnt look like this, someone switched the letters.  You can pop them off( a flat screwdriver works good, so does a butter knife) and pop them in the right place.  

    If it does look like that, then do you have a wireless kb?  If so, when the battery starts to die, or if anything is interferring with the signal it could cause this.  First replace the batteries, then resync it to your computer.  If any liquid has gotten into the kb then it could have shorted and be producing the wrong letters too

    It can also be something with the driver.  Go into device manager, delete the kb driver and restart the computer, it will automatically install the driver again.

    Finally, your kb can be going, and that means a replacement.

    Its very very very unlikely for this to be a virus or malware of any kind.  I can't rule it out completly, but I would say the odds are heavy against it.  

    Good Luck.

  3. Your keyboard mapping is more than likely incorrect. Try doing this:

    open the control panel > Date, Time, Language, and Regional Options > Regional and Language options.

    Then make sure ALL the drop downs are correct for your country; if you live in the United States for example, of course make sure your location says U.S. in any of the drop down menus

    1/Standards and Format - Regional options tab

    2/location - Regional options tab

    3/Languages tab > Details Button > settings tab > Default input language

    4/Advanced tab top drop down.


  4. maybe somebody switched your keys.
