Re: Typing Error

Well someone from another community suggested for me to try another keyboard
and I did and guess what? I have no problems with another keyboard! So my
laptop is still under warranty and so I will be calling them in the morning
as too tired tonight. Thank you everyone for your support and response. And
Happy Super Bowl results.....I am a Cowboy fan.

That was one of the first things I tried (after other attempts) was system
restore and at least 2 weeks back and did not make a difference. The NumLock
and FN keys didn't make a difference. I am now scanning my pc with McAfee
after that I may try anti-malware. Thank you for your response.

Hi Alice,

First check that numlock, shift, and the fn key are not stuck by rapping
each several times. If that fails to help, uninstall the game your grandson
is using, it may have remapped some keys. If that fails, use system restore
to go back to a day before it was initially installed.

I just posted my question and now I can't find it. So again, I am having
problems on my Dell Inspiron Laptop E1505 with typing errors. Everytime I
type either on address bar or a word doc or whereever on my laptop, it
types
numbers when typing letters and it types letters when typing numbers. Not
all keys type erroneously. This happened after my grandson played a game
on
it. Could that caused the problem and how can I correct that? Thank you.
P.S. I am typing from my desktop. Please, I need a remedy.
