Please someone should help me out with this issue on my HP 250 Laptop.
Recently, I was working with my laptop when an automated message popped-up, before I could read what it says, I mistakenly clicked "ok". Then when I finished with the work, then laptop entered administrative lock as usual, but when I wanted to unlock it again with my password, i was constantly receiving "WRONG PASSWORD".
NOTE: This was the password i've been using all the while.

Then on a close look on the password, I discovered that the number that is contained in my password has been replaced with a symbol. That is, my password is B**4***l, the number "4" was replaced with this "$" instead. This has been the problem why the system refused to unlock. All the numbers in the system, when clicked will display symbol instead of the number. I suspect it was the "ok" i clicked when a message popped up caused the disarrangement of my keyboard.

So please prof, how do I correct this problem? I mean, how do I bypass entering the password to gain access to my system or possibly restore the system without losing my files so i can gain access into my system?

Please someone should help me out!

I've been very busy,
@stan: pls give me more details. What error messages does it give? What does it do when you try to convert? Do other converters work? Your formatting problem is typically that of a virus problem. A virus can hook files in a removable drive and work with it, thus you are unable to eject it or format it. It is no use formatting a drive on a virus infected computer. Because immediately after that, the virus rehooks. Open command prompt and type 'control folders'. A window will popup. Click the view tab. Scroll and check view hidden files and folders. uncheck the hide system files and hide known file extensions. This will enable you to see hidden viruses in your flash. Alternatively, you can write 'attrib -h -s E:\*.*' where E is the label of your removable drive.

i suspect u are having charging problems....if u place ur cursor on ur battery bar.....u wld likely see "plugged in,not charging"
the mouth of a hp 650 uses a rare new design(some pple call it blue mouth)..very sensitive,scarce and expensive.(new is 15k)im yet to see the china model of it...
make a screenshot of the battery bar message with the cursor on it when plugged in

CLICKJACKING!!..U have been hit by a adware..(fancy banner with an incredible story or alert...eg ur system is infected or may contain multiple errors)..when u click,for some,u get a download that actually injects ur system with the trojan...others,u will use ur hand to do urself by installing it they it hijacks ur system and registry...here is an alert to fb users,when u see a banner with a fancy story like "see munachii abii naked"(even me,would be tempted to open it cuz im her no1 fan)it then directs u to a page that says "u must share first" before u can read....
bypassing is quite easy(less than 5mins)..confirm ownership and pls dont be like the nl guy(mike)who called me and we spent 5-6days removing his pw for a 5min procedure(we cldnt eventually but we retrieved all his files).....it was a learning process for me too...
1..he used the built-in administrative account as his main account
2..he has only a guest account as spare(i cldnt elevate his privilege to administrator using all the tricks in the books)why?;
3..he is using windows 7 home premium(limited features)
4..he is in calabar with no internet to even send him required files
so pls if u meet all the above criteria...PLS DONT CALL ME(its quite impossible to help pple from a distance esp when all the required resources aint available)and in the end,all u get is a thank u....thats neva encouraging!

This is not a big issue. Your keyboard is possibly changed by mistake by clicking or depressing alt+shift simultaneously or something along the line. Do this as follows:

Important: You can hold down SHIFT and press the number you want at the same time or do the following below.

1) Start your computer.

2) At the login screen there is an icon to the lower left-hand side of the screen. Click on it.

3) Select virtual Keyboard from there and open it.

4) Click shift to change the key. Whenever you need figure( 4 would be on the symbol $ but when you click shift on the virtual keyboard it turns to number 4)

5) After entering you complete password you can press ENTER key to log in.

Then come back here for more information to get the right default keyboard settings.

just hit f8..enter safe mode(i recently read windows 8.1 and later may not enter safe mode again using f8)so when u get to that repair screen,look for restore and restore it to a date before u actually made the new installations and ur pc wld be up and running again..
here is an advise to pple that are installing new hardware,software or updating:carefully read the requirements of such before proceeding....it may not be compactible...
intel celeron is one of the most useless architecture in the processor class,if u over stress it...it wld choke due to overheating....

My chairman thank you for your response, but I couldn't see anything like " visual keyboard" as you said. I don't know if it's because I'm using windows 8. I have tried all you said but it's still the same. The problem also affected my 'CAP LOCK' button. When i press cap lock to write in capital letter, it will write in small letters; if i off it to write in small letters, it will write in capital. If there is a way i can restore the system without loosing my files, i will appreciate it my chairman

Welldone house, please anytime I connect my browsers (Windows edge, Chrome, Internet Explorer, etc), there is this site ('cv.org' or 'search pile' I am automatically directed to. this site brings all sorts of unnecessary adverts and promos on my browsers. please, who has an idea on how to uninstall this malicious programme from my system. thanks
i don't think its a program...try blocking those site..find a program called host (who help but don't really remember the location..away from lappy for week now) you'd see a buncha sites there..edit then add the name of the site and save..you'd never be able to connect to the site with your browser..hope it helps,sorry its not very detailed
