So today i opened my pc to play some games but my keyboard is not letting me. It does not type letters at all but the letters act weird. For example i opened a note thing to try to type but it does weird stuff. For example, backslash creates this little box . Like an O but its a square. Pressing A makes it save the file.. The other keys make a sound, like an error when you press it.. for example, J acts as an enter .. Z deletes every word.. Please help me...

NOTE: If you need to type in a password to even get into Windows to do the following, make sure you attached an external keyboard first, to get past the password. Then disconnect the external keyboard and try the following...

1. Uninstall the keyboard driver.
2. Reboot the computer (without reinstalling the driver).
3. When it restarts, it should reinstall the driver on its own.

If this doesn't work, you may wish to try connecting/reconnecting an external keyboard and see if it works fine. If it does, then it could be the keys themselves that are the issue.

You may also want to try updating the Synaptics Driver if the above doesn't help.
