The first thing we need to do to is diagnose the keyboard. Find out what' wrong with it. Otherwise, we'd have no hint as to what to fix.

On a Mac, we need to enable and bring up the Keyboard Viewer. Open the International preferences pane located in System Preferences (under the Apple menu). Place a checkmark next to Keyboard Viewer. Close the preferences pane. Now, we can select the Keyboard Viewer from the Flag menu.

On a Windows machine, go to the Start menu, point to All Programs, point to Accessories, point to Accessibility and finally select On–Screen Keyboard. Note: A message box with a link to more information about the On–Screen Keyboard may appear. To close the box, select OK.
