Problem with DELL keyboard.

[Dog Lover]

When typing and using the number pad,whenever I type the
number 4, I always get a 4/.(Backslash)
When using the numbers at the top of the keyboard,I just
get the number 4 without the backslash.
The board is five years old.What can I do ? Pray? Buy a new
one.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Sincerely:
Dog Lover

It does sound like the keyboard is going bad. They are not expensive and easy to replace. That is what I would do.
