Random French letters appear when I use keyboard
So this has been happening on and off since I upgraded to Vista from XP. It's only been going on in Fire Fox. When I type somewhere, this text box for example, sometimes a small letter E with a downhill accent pops up instead of the ' key. After restarting Fire Fox the problem is fixed. Any ideas what this may be?

This probably has commonality with your other issue, that unless you load all the Toshiba Vista drivers that pertain to your model.

There are many variations to the A100 and we don't know which is yours, but there seems to be a good level of Vista support for many.

Sorry what's the difference between a chipset driver and a driver? I looked for "chipset" drivers on Toshiba's site and found none.
