bit of help here?

Expand Post »
Hi, Im new here, so Im not sure if this is the place that I post my problem. Its just that I didnt see a post button anywhere else?
However, My problem is my keyboard. When I hit the letters U,E,R,D,F, and M they immediately open up windows to another function, example E-my computer/ R-"run" window prompt. U- "utility manager" etc, etc.
In the utility manager I turned everything off, the sticky keys function I turned off.....I tried changing keyboareds....nothing.
can anyone help?

Hi Jane- wlecome to DaniWeb

Your problem appears to be a stuck "Win" key- the key with the Windows logo on it. The actions you described are those actuated by pressing the Win key in conjunction with the letters you listed.

Re: bit of help here?

thanks so much for that. I pulled off that win key and found the kids breakfast in there and roundabout.
It seems to have correctly MOST of the problem except for the U key. When I hit that key the Utility window comes up still???

That is strange; either the Win key is stuck, or it isn't.
In order to better isolate the problem, try another (known-to-be-working ) keyboard and see what effect that has.
