In that case check your keyboard mappings in the control panel.

Start > Control Panel > regional settings > Keyboard.

Make sure all of the locations and mappings are set to your location

Stuck #4 or #7?

Try an external keyboard if this is a laptop as I suspect it is. If not try another keyboard. If that works, it's probably something wrong with your keypad/keyboard.
