every time i hit the "C" key but dont hit "shift" leaving it lowerCase it doesnt type anything, it opens some "uniserver desktop managment Center" window. it is ultra frustrating. It is a brand new Computer at work and i just got it yesterday. i used it last night with no problems whatsoever. tonight it is driving me Crazy!

If you are on Vista, goto control panel, then goto change keyboards or other import methods, you need to check your keyboard settings there, you can change a whole host of setting like language etc!!!
