    Hi all
    can anyone help me with this problem. My friend has a pc world Ebook laptop with Vista Home installed, which up to recently was working perfectly. Lately when he presses the letters as follows he gets "f" he gets"g","g" he gets "h", "h" he gets "j". Anyone got any ideas. All help/suggestions greatly appreciated. There doesn't seem to be anything stuck under the keys. Thanks
    Ciaran

    Was coffee or beer or other liquid spilled in it?

    If so, keyboard replacement required.

    No don't think anything spilt on it but can't be sure as he allows his 3 year old son to watch movies on it. Thanks for reply. Ciaran

    Hmm, it doesn't seem like it's a language problem. If you type @ and get "
    it could be that the keyboard is set to American english.

    well that would suggest US english was selected , however what was said originally would suggest the keybord weirdly shifted to the right :confused:

    what is the model laptop is it?????
