| Keyboard Trouble Anyone have any ideas why my keyboard does not type what the key says. This is what I get when I type Question mark key É. This is what I get when I type the quotation mark key è. I have no idea what is causing this. The keys all seem free and good.

Press CTRL+SHIFT once more and you'll get back to english and have the /. / - English Press CTRL+SHIFT to get é Press CTRL+SHIFT to get é again Press CTRL+SHIFT to get back to /.
