Ive gone and done something with the control key no doubt how to I reverse it? Typing backwards is frying my brain. (wrote this in Word and pasted it in, btw) Cheers, Chris
Yep! Turned the thing on and off and it went away, but I've done it to myself a few times now and am sick of having to turn the computer off/on to fix it. Hopefully someone has the answer!
Maybe the 'home' button is stuck down or something, so that whenever you type a letter the cursor goes to the beginning of the line, making everything backwards. thats all i can suggest other than a virus!
Na, it's not virus/malware related. It's happenning to a lot of same brand laptops (Lenovo T60/X60) Oh.. by the way.. hello Chris!
hmm, to narrow the issue I'd try to find a USB keyboard, if it stops doing it then I'd say the laptop or keyboard is to blame (assuming it is a lappy?)
done some digging on google: could use this to help you? http://www.writebackwards.com/ would correct your typing! lol tim
Cheers for that Dan - I couldn't quite find "left to right" on the menu in IE, but at least know where to look now. There must be some shortcut I've hit to make it happen...
If you are using internet explorer 7 you need to press "alt" on the key board to bring up the menu, then go to view then encoding then left - to - right document, dont know if that helps at all. cheers
also, in that menu, just above left-to-right, there is other options, and select Unicode (UTF-8) and if you hevent already, run an antivirus (if you dont have one i recomend AVG free http://free.grisoft.com/ its the best antivirus and its free) and run spybot (http://www.safer-networking.org/en/mirrors/index.html)
