"....thats supposed to be the @ symbol
@....thats supposed to be the "symbol
#.....is the colon or something sybol, the one right beside the "back" key..the one that deletes but isnt called the delete key.....
£....is supposed to be the pound key shift +3...you know....

Any idea what is going on and how I can fix this? The computer guy said it might be set for a different #'ed key boasrd but those all are basics on any board arent they? And I really dont know where to look....

Hope you can help.....

Go to the control panel on your computer and double click on the keyboard icon. In the keyboard properties window click on the hardware tab. Then click on the properties button. There it will tell you if your keyboard is working properly. There also should be a troubleshooting button that you can click on for more help. Also, on my computer the keyboard needs to be plugged into a specific port. Make sure that if it is required to be plugged into a specific port that it is done on your computer. Good luck!!

Upon further thinking, if you have switched computers you probably should reinstall any software that is required for your keyboard on that computer. I bet that since you switched computers your keyboard drivers are different. Reinstalling the software should fix that problem, if that is what happened.
