Need computer nerd help

[Yoga Face]

Some of my key strokes are not working

WTF SHOULD I DO (ie I cannot make a question mark to close this question)

 

[Twister]

Reboot see if it helps..

Sounds like you may have inadvertently switched your keyboard style to another default language. Like Twister said, reboot.

 

[clules]

Go to the Control Panel (click your windows start button and look for Control Panel) then search for "Region and Language" and make sure it is set to English. Then reboot

I don't have to reboot but I make sure that it says English (United States) US Keyboard

[Twister]

If its only the question mark, I would check if its dirty, turn it upside down bang it a bit.

Get a can of compressed air from Canada Computers or Staples and give the keyboard a damn good blast. Or just buy a new keyboard.

 

[KBear]

new keyboard would be about the same cost as a can of air. Try another keyboard.

Hi Yoga Face, I assume you are running Windows 8. Look at the bottom right corner of your screen. See where it says ENG CMS? Click on it and change the keyboard to ENG US. You get all of your punctuation back.

Several keys, then its either the keyboard or the chip controller on the MB.
