   Did you install some software with your keyboard?  If so, try   
   uninstalling it, reboot, and check that you are using the standard   
   Windows-supplied keyboard driver only.   
      
   Is this a corded or wireless keyboard?  If wireless, have you tried   
   resynchronizing the receiver and keyboard?   
      
   Know of anything you did 3 weeks ago?  You could look in Add/Remove   
   Programs, enable "show all updates", and look under Windows to see if   
   you installed an update around the time the problem started.   
      
   System Restore is just a restore of critical *system* files.  It is NOT   
   the same as a partition image save.  System Restore will NOT return your   
   hard drive to the same state it was in before.  A system restore will   
   not destroy registration of apps that were installed later or   
   configuration settings but an image restore will (because you are   
   returning the partition to its prior exact state).  System Restore will   
   not remove some Microsoft updates.
