Re: My keyboard is all messed up?
Nope it was not but if I put it on then they are still messed up but different like the "J" is now an H.

Oh well that's an easy fix!
If this is a gateway....They made a batch of laptops for the dyslexic league.
You may have a collectors item /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
I hope you have a sense of humor about this.
Seriously you may have to reload the keyboard driver.
As we're all so fond of hearing... I ain't never heard of this before. I felt sure that it'd be the numlock. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif
I did a google search and there's much written on the subject "laptop keyboard problems"
Good Luck /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

Your computer maybe be set up for a keyboard other than a normal one. I know a friend who can set up his keyboard for a different typing scheme. He was using it for a school class. Good luck fixing it.

Just off the top I tried something on my machine and it MIGHT be related to a cause of your problems.
My system has drivers for keyboards in many differen languages, and some of them make things appear in really strange places on the standard "US english QWERTY keyboard."
If you can, you might want to see if your keyboard language got changed ... Maybe it's trying to tell you something in Estonian ...
Good luck!

Sounds like a numlock problem, all right. Notebooks usually have an embedded numeric keypad, right about where you are having that problem..........

Tomas may be right. Have you checked to be sure the language is set properly?
Go to the keyboard icon in control panel to check it.
Besides the J being messed up, what do some of the other key presses put out?

Uh, since it is messing up with (MS)Word and also with your browser (maybe MSIE?) could it be some common file that those two use that is messed up? Have you tried reinstalling either/both?
The reason I ask that is if the two are both MS products they share a lot of the behind-the-scenes stuff that, for example, Adobe Photoshop doesn't ... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif
