Problem with spellchecker here on this forum

[*kazumi*]

I have a problem with my computer; it misses letters.  No, it is not me; it misses a letter and I hit it again and again, and nothing happens.  In this moment it is mostly s and d, but any random letter can be affected and often it refuses to do capitals at all.  Everywhere else I simply type and then correct with spellchecker. or copy an pate the letter where it belong.  On this forum that   complicates things even further, because after I select the correct word, it places it in totally different position.  Then I have to find it and cut and paste it where it belongs.  Sometime whole sentence gets jumbled up. 

oes anybody else has such problems?

No.

I try to avoid spellcheckers.

Have you considered buying a new keyboard? They normally are not expensive.

It's a laptop.  I guess I could use a keyboard with it.  Or I could get a new laptop.

I try to avoid laptop keyboards. No number pad.

Ours is a few years old (replaced a faulty one) and has a number pad.

All the laptops in this family have had number pads.

My dead Dell doesn't.

Useless anyway - I'm left handed. lol

Our old Dell didn't, our newer (couple of years old) does.
