    Hi everyone,
    I have been using windows 7 for couple of day with no problems until installed a capture one software for photos and it messed up my number keys.
    As I press try these on top of the keyboard they act as if shift was held and number lock does not react.
    I tried reinstall of the windows but result is the same.

    Would anyone have an idea how to resolve this?

    I tried connecting another keyboard but it was the same, installed the disk that came with keyboard/mouse and stoill the same.... then tried confirming that the language setting was correct and after cancelling out of that setting screen, I tried again and it worked (?)
    Weird since I did not make any changes to either BIOS or WIN but it works....
    The only difference was installing the Logitec software but then it did not on MS keyboard before as well.... in any case good it works but I hope it is not to change it's mind for some reason soon again :eek:

    and just in a case it could be of any use to someone experiencing the same issue in the future, the problem was not with number keys only but really with all non letter keys.

    last time i saw this was locale of keyboard was wrong.. or maybe a corruption causing it to think it was a different locale.
    check hdd .. might be corrupting

    we know its not keyboard due to a different keyboard same issue.

    When installing that photo software I was asked if I wanted to instal the USB driver as well (could be one for connecting the camera) and then it went crazy....
    I also have couple of USB ports on the USB board (one that has 4 ports) not working and I have Device Manager conflict saying that:

    ______________
    This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use. (Code 12)


    If you want to use this device, you will need to disable one of the other devices on this system.
    ______________

    Not sure if the system should run out of resources by adding one USB board or something else is the issue... It is a brand new PC.

    I'm not an expert unlike others here but I had a problem that the keyboard acting strangely and sound not coming from the speakers, I tried almost all method but failed. Then out of curiosity I pressed f8 while the system was booting and selected the start up repair option and it took sometime to finish then I got everything that I lost. Try this wild method if possible and see what happens.:)
