My keyboard has all the buttons the wrong way round and im not actually quite sure why?
Is there something iv done to make it go like this or is it just a backwards keyboard?
Iv had my new keyboard only about a month and only just started to use the pc so thought id ask for some advice.

Check that your keyboard layout is set to the right country. Go to control panel then 'regional and language settings' and it should be in there. Also is it a QWERTY keyboard?

Hi, i had a similar problem, i needed to press " for @ , and visa versa, as nathan123 says it could be a language problem, or it was in my case.Here's what i did....

Click start >control panel> regional and language options > click on the languages tab > details > settings tab > in the drop down box under the heading "default input language" choose English ( united kingdom ) > apply > OK. You will have to reboot your computer for it to take affect.

Hope this helps, regards Cat
