Dings randomly when typing @-sign
Hi,
I have a weird error on one of my clients. When pushing the @(at)-sign with alt-gr+2 (Swedish layout) It randomly beeps and don't write out the sign.
It happens around 50% of the times the button is pressed. It's a laptop and the problem is still there with both the internal and the external keyboard. When i log on remotly through RDP the error doesn't exists.
Any idea?
Kind regards,

Hi,
Why do you wanna do like this? Seems this is a warning defined by manfacturer for keyboard type conflict.Juke Chou

Hi,
What do you mean with: "Why do you wanna do like this?".
It just started, It has worked without problems like a half year, and the weird thing is that's in only in the webbrowsers and with both the internal and external keyboard.

Hi,
What can the key combination @(at)-sign with alt-gr+2 (Swedish layout) do? I never heard such key combination. Please advise.

Hi,
Nah, on a swedish keybord you have to hold Alt-gr and press 2 to get a @-sign. You can use the combination on ctrl+alt+2 also and that combination did work, so It's a bit wierd this problem.

Hi,
Yep, I tested it, it worked. Can you please try to remove the keyboard layout and add it again? Or boot into Safe Mode to have a test. This willl eliminate some 3rd party causes.
