Hi guys!
Morning - I hope all are well here.
I find myself in need of your kind expertise please folks,
before either myself or my computer expire. I'm only fluent in idiot-speak, so I'd appreciate any simplified answers where possible please.
My OS is Vista basic. There are two problems I have, which I'll post separately.
Firstly, my keyboard has suddenly stopped working properly last week when I type out an email. It misses letters out, doesn't space properly, it's not very touch sensitive at all and it is also very hesitant. Strangely, this is only happening badly when I do my emails on my googlemail.
I can type anywhere else fairly normally - although the pc can be very slow and hesitant sometimes and you can hear the thing rumble as it's churning things over.
Using Tiffy logic,
, I went and relaced the keyboard with a new one - the same Trust one as I'd already been using. This didn't fix the problem though.
So then I went into control panel and checked under keyboards, which said PS2 standard keyboard and that it was working normally! In fact, it says that everything is working normally - see Part II!
I'd be indebted to any kind soul who can advise me on these problems please. Thank you for your time guys.
Much Love,
Tiff xxx
