Gazzagolf Posted October 10, 2010 Posted October 10, 2010 Help!!! My pc seems to have gone very strange! All was fine and working well, came home and oddly when I double clicked a desktop icon instead of opening it brought up the properties box instead. When I try to open the app from the start menu I sometimes can and sometimes the all programmer menu comes up then disappears. If I open up a browser , any of four, it opens but I cant type in any search or address bars the keyboard appears connected but it won't type anywhere apart from once it typed vowels only but not in English!! I have scanned with Norton and windows defender nothing! I am stuck on my iPhone for now but I can get email. If it was a keyboard issue why is there a prob with shortcuts not working? Also in any browser if I try to open a bookmark it goes to save file in my pictures!! Can't type in the RUN box either I don' t know what else to do I am stumped Quote
