    Is it possible that someone physically switched the letters on the keyboard. make sure that your second row looks similar to this.

    Yes...that's entirely possible...
    Any pranksters at Home ? ?
    Have you tried another keyboard ? ?
    That would be my 1st move...

      Patio had a good idea. Try another keyboard. That might solve the problem.
