Go into Control panel:
Click 'Regional and Lanuage options':
Select the 'Lanuages' tab:
Click 'details' button:
The chances are that your keyboard has changed to US.
Select (or add) United Kingdom keyboard and remove the US one.
when you restart the PC your keys should be in their rightful place.

http://www.techpowerup.com/realtemp get your son to download this si and then run it whilst on a table to get an ambient reading. then download the prime95 to test the sensor (runs the cpu at 98% 88% 75% etc so makes it run at its hottest then makes sure it cool down)
then do the same without the fan when he uses it on his bed, but set the warning at 80 c so you've got time to move the laptop to cool it down again.
poor enviorment is causing your problems me thinks
cheers btw Stales got a middle name

No, not Wayne. He's the devil!! (long story). I have a txt doc with all of the things I need to copy/paste and have it open when on the boards. Makes it easier to find.
