Problem: When i press the (comma) key i get the letter "b" instead. If i SHIFT comma i get B.
System:
Vista 64 bit Ultimate
q9550 @ 3.6GHz
8 GB Ram
Built new PC about 1 1/2 months ago. Problem started happening about 3 weeks ago but i guess i didnt pay much attention to it. I thought it was the keyboard and i was going to get a new one anyways. I dont think i have done anything out of the realm of normal during that time. Nothing strange installed that i know of. Infact my add/remove programs has 8 things in it.
I know your wondering why isnt this under the keyboard thread but its not a keyboard problem. It is happening on 3 Keyboards i have tested with. 2 USB and 1 PS/2 Keyboard.
It happens in windows. It happens in Games. It happens in safe mode or safe mode with command prompt.
Keyboard and regional settings are all set to English (United States). I reset them all to English (Canada) and the Keyboard to US International. Rebooted and still had the same problem. Set it back to standard and the problem still exists.
I created another user profile and still has the same issue.
I have AVG fully updated and windows fully updated and both update and scan at night. No viruses or spyware that i know of. I havent scanned for spyware in a while though.
I am kind of at a loss at this point. I am not having any other system issues. Temperatures running at around 48-50C. Every other key works.
Example:
`1234567890-=
qwertyuiop[]\
asdfghjkl;'
zxcvbnmb./
2 b's on that last line. See next to the period? ALL COMMAS > bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb
Anyone every hear of anything like this? Im not sure what else to try and the only thing i havent done is boot off a floppy right into DOS and try it because i dont have a Floppy drive. I guess i can make a bootable CD but havent gone to those lengths yet.
Any help would be grateful.
