I'm using the right Alt-key together with the numkeys for certain codes like the Euro and guilder.
Since yesterday the normal signs don't appear on my screen. They're all weird characters. What can have happened?
TIA

Hi George

Have you checked to make sure that the keyboard is set up properly from within control panel? Also, check device manager to ensure it is functioning properly and shares no conflicts with any other devices. Give it a clean (remove keys and shake out any debris). If this does not work, check if some of your keys have been remapped by another user. Finally, you may wish to check for a virus.

Hope this helps

Mark
