Strange Typing Problems

1803 Views 1 Reply 2 Participants Last post by  95five-0
It just started happening last night for some reason. I was playing a game, and I believe I may have pressed Ctrl+Alt or Shift+Alt and changed some langauge settings. But I got it working again in-game.

But now, my computer isn't typing right with some keys. Like if I press 4 or b, it types in 4b every time. If I hold the button down, it becomes 4bbbbbbbbbbbb, even if I hold down 4. The same goes with "7 and n" and "0 and /"

I also have trouble spacing because Alt and Space seemed to be like those as well. And also Left and End seems to do that. Down and F11 look to be like that because when I hit down, it goes to fullscreen on my browser.

Wordpad, MS Word, Firefox, Notepad, IE, it does it in everything.

Any suggestions?

Goto the control panel and open regional and language options. Make sure it is set to your correct language and location. If this information is correct you might want to try plugging in a different keyboard and see if it still has a problem.
