    I've been using this wireless keyboard and mouse since I bought it on Saturday and I have had no problems whatsoever (barring the awkward shape of the keyboard). So anyway I needed to take my laptop away with me today on business without the wireless gadgets but my laptop keys seem to have been re-arranged.

    For eg.
    When I type this sentence out
    "Microsoft Wireless Comfort 5000"

    This is what I get
    "5cr6s6ft W5re3ess C60f6rt 5///"


    Any ideas on how to re-configure the keys?

    or should I say

    Any 5dea 6n h6w t6 re-c6nf5g4re the 2eys+

    Looks like a NUM lock situation

    yes that's it thanks.

    I just held down the Fn key and F11 and done the trick.

    Thanks overheal.

    could be all right, just plug your wireless keyboard back in and then make sure the numlock is off before you shut down.

    If that doesn't work check in control panel that keyboard is set for the correct region, uk etc
