FZ21E keys not working after installing Windows 7

I've just done a clean install of windows 7 but the keys don't work on the right half of the keyboard, ie.

keys 1 - 9 work correctly, although when pressing shift + keys 7 - 9 don't do anything

keys 'u' = 4, 'i' = 5, 'o' = 6, 'p' ='*' when using shift with these keys I get nothing

keys 'j' - ';/;' produce numbers 1-3 & '_'

................... strangely enough though the Function keys seem to work !

The keyboard is configured as UK keyboard and I've checked all the drivers but kind a specific one for the keyboard. I don't really want to switch back to Vista so would really appreciate any help.

Have you tried pressing the "NumLk" key? Does this help?

Thanks Blencogo, that did the trick!

Didn't even think to consider that as I've never used the keyboard in that way! was begining to think I'd damaged the keyboard.

wasn't looking forward to restoring Vista :smileyhappy:, thanks again.

I don't know anyone who uses the keyboard in that way either!!!!

Glad it's sorted.
