Hello, I'm not sure if this belongs in the hardware section or the software section. Anyway, I ran into a very peculiar problem recently at my wife's office. Her computer runs just fine except the keyboard has a strange problem. The @ and the " are switched! Not the physical keys, but the result of pressing the keys. When you press the @ symbol, what appears on the monitor is ". And the opposite is true, too.... when you press the " symbol, what appears on the monitor is the @.
Just to be clear, I'm talking about the @ symbol, directly over the "2" key on the upper row. And the " symbol, directly to the left of the "enter" key.
At first I thought it was a problem with the keyboard, so I just changed out the keyboard for a new one - but the same problem remains. So it can't be the keyboard - it's something in the computer.
The computer in question is running Windows 7 Professional with all updates.
Can anyone suggest a solution? I've looked at the keyboard dialog box in Control Panel but I don't see anything to try.
Thanks in advance.
