Hi If some of the keys on her keyboard(s) are not acting as expected, one thing to check is the Regional and Language Options in Control Panel. I got an old laptop from my daughter and was having trouble with some keys until I looked there and found that the language was set to English (UK) and the location was set to UK. Set the language to English (United States) and the location to United States. Another thing to check is Keyboard in Control Panel and the keyboard type on the hardware tab should be Standard 101/102-Key or Microsoft Natural PS/2 K... Keyboards

Eventually I had her boyfriend uninstall the wireless keyboard & plug in another keyboard but, some keystrokes still don't work. She can't sit at the computer for longperiods of time so, it's hard to get very much done at 1 sitting. I have all the folders unhidden through the View Page so, if Local Disk C, was there I should be able to see it. All the folders you would normally find under Local Disk C, are there but, as sub-folders in 2 other folders. It is going to take some time to get this computer figured out but, it will get done, maybe! LOL Thanks again, take care.

I would unplug the ps2 and see if problem and do same with other. Now for the drive it may be under a different name or may be labeled system and those devices are not shown. Would have to show then in the folder options. At 05:04 PM 3/22/2011, you wrote: >Hi All; > >I have a weird question.
