All of a sudden my keyboard on the 2nd pc is behaving very strangely, 'the' types as 'heu', infact I can't type 't' at all and some of the words are very strange and when some letters are typed two letters appear eg 'o' ='oq' ;
'd' = 'dj' ???????

Has anyone any ideas, I've tried using system restore, I've tried removing the keyboard rebooting and then adding it again etc, I've tried changing the language layout using the os disk but can't access it off the disc and can't install it over the old one because I can't type T!!!

Help much appreciated, thanks.

Thanks but it is new, well a few weeks old anyway. Any other suggestions before I resort to buying a new one?

Thanks, I checked it on a third machine and it worked okay on that, and when I reconnected it it worked okay on the 2nd one, but I'm not sure what happened as I had disconnected it and reconnected to the 2nd one a few times, but as its okay why worry, thanks all who replied :)
