keyboard acting funny on icq, replacing keys etc
 
anyone had this problem?

im seeing "y" replaced with "z" and some other keys as well (not here, only on icq)

i think i got this problem few months ago but it solved on its own after rebooting and now since yesterday it still exists and it makes my icq messages look retarded

anyway when you have your icq widow selected, like on the foreground... check if the keyboard language icon changes on the right on your taskbar (assuming you got win XP). Select the other language and its good

No sorry, all clean here. Good luck!

mine 'eats' some of the letters, like if I type "letters" it'll display "letes" or something similar, I guess I can update but I'm too lazy and scared that I might lose my contacts

sounds like you spilled something sticky on the keys, like coke or bodily fluids.

and no i didnt change anything recently in any settings recently, its not that i get bored and play around with my PC to change settings

my keyboard sometimes goes French on me.. :error:helpme

so my question marks ? will all end up looking like this - É

From the sounds of it that's the kind of thing that's happening to you, I'd suggest checking your language options if you haven't already :2 cents:

That's it, yes. I've had the same thing some time ago.
