When I got home from work today I tried to go to the board & my keyboard does not work at all. I noticed in the tool bar?(bottom right of the screen with the clock & crap) there is something called "Filter Keys" I clicked on it & it opened & says "Accessibility options" I tried changing settings & it did not fix any thing(I changed them back to what they were before) If I log onto windows using another family members screen & go to the internet the keyboard works fine as they do not have that little Filter keys down there.
I clicked start-all programs & there is not a new program installed. Any body know what this is?

Go to Start, Control Panel, Accessabiliity Options. The first tab should be for keyboards,. In the center of the tab you'll see the Filter Keys option, just uncheck it and your back to normal. I cannot remember for the life of me what the "hotkey" combo is to activate the filter keys, but someone proably hit some weird key-typo combination and caused that option to be turned on.

Man I love this place. It's gotta be the best $25.00 a year a guy could ever spend! Thanks.
