So I was just typing, and everything was coming in BACKWARDS, like my was ym.

could be a trojen, I remember having one on my DOS machine about 15 years ago that did something similar. I can't think of anything else that could cause that to happen.

Do you mean that right-to-left text entry is turned on? If so, you need to check out your regional and language option settings / language bar settings.

MartyMcFly3 had this problem about a week ago. I don't know what he did to fix it.

You mean the old, "upside-down keyboard" trick?

Not neccesarily.



LordSegan, if you'er running XP with a version of Office (can't remember which one), trying hitting the left SHIFT, or CTRL+SHIFT. Either that, or the right side ones.
