Word 2000, Outlook 2003: My keyboard unexpectedly begins typing gibberish.
For example, when I type "several years," what appears on the screen is "o.k.pan f.apo".
I don't understand why or when this occurs, except that it may occur inconsistently after I've been writing something for longer than a few minutes.
Usually, I have to save my work and reboot to continue working; however, it seems that sometimes all I have to do is leave the program (Word or Outlook) and go into some other program for a minute and when I return I can continue my work for a while.
Does anyone know why or how to stop this from happening. My O.S. is XP Pro.
