Is it possible that you are hitting the blue Function key accidentally?

I have an answer!

I spoke with someone at HP Support today, and it is pretty much exactly what I figured.

I was inadvertantly hitting a sequence of keys that activated the blue keys.

The key sequence is "Ctrl + Left Shift +Right Shift", which activates and deactivates the blue keys...éééÉÉÉÉèèèèÈÈÈÈ etc.

 Hit them again and you get your proper keys, /?/?/?/?""""""", etc., back.

Woo Hoo!

Note...I'm pasting this to every post that's asking this question seeing as it took me so long to find the info.
