Yes looks very strange to me as well. What brand of a netbook is it? is it
Samsung?
I think your friend must have pressed some key in combination with FN key.
I've come across somewhat a similar keyboard layout on a Toshiba laptop
where the user pressed FN+f11 and the keyboard layout would change after
that.
One more reason for this issue could be change in display layout. Can you
have somebody check if the display is up side down? If so then you could use
control + alt + arrow keys to set the display right and check if this
resolves the issue.

Hi Ajay,

Have been trying to find a solution for this issue. Unfortunately, there is
no tech forum that has reported such an issue. There were some posts on
applications like word and powerpoint where the arrow keys on the keyboard
behaved inverted. The solutions there were not convincing, they mainly
talked about language settings for those documents or applications. Also the
keyboard settings in control panel under settings. I will do some more
homework on the same and get back to you. It is truly a strange problem and
a challenging one too!

Subject: [AI] Need help on a strange issue with typing.

Hi friends,
I have a visually challanged friend who is facing a strainge problem with
her netbook and desktop. I am pasting the message which describes the
complete problem.
Here it starts

The cursor moves right when I press left arrow key and moves left when I
press right arrow key.
And one problem is when I press backspace for deleting any character from
the middle of a sentence it deletes the right character rather than the left
one which it should and Then if you continue typing anyway ignoring the
problem there in the middle of the sentence , it keeps deleting the text on
the right and continues typing over it.
She is using office 2003 with win7 starter in netbook and windows XP in her
desktop. Please try to solve this problem. Your valluable suggestions will
be highly appreciated.
thanks in advance
