If you are working on a laptop, then you accidentaly turned on the Num lock find the button that says num lck and press it and the fn key together.  If you're on a PC, I got nothing for ya.

Try using the Alt Gr key, bottom right hand side, beside the space bar, that's only if you have a European keyboard.

Press a number x, the ^, and a number y.  For example:\n\nThe ^ key is next to TAN.

Make sure that your keys are ok! If they work some times and dont other times go to http://housecall.trendmicro.com/ for free anti Virus/trojan/spyware/malware scan! And make sure that your keyboard layout settings are ok!

The "E" on the keyboard is faulty?

You got a sticky ALT or CTRL key...

It might be due to your password entered not in the right case, cause password is mostly case sensitive

If I recall, it's something along the lines of ALT + 3. It's a single number, lower digits. I'm on a laptop, so I can't test it.

press the alt key and press 3 on your number keypad. you'll get a ♥, different numbers give you different symbols. Have fun!

I tend to use the following combination:\n\nAlt Space\nAlt n\n\nYou could replace the Alt n bit by pressing the up arrow twice and hitting enter.

sounds like the numlock was pressed by mistake. or else, the keyboard setting was changed to a foreign language. either way, reboot the machine. Access the CMOS during POST (F10, Del, or whatever depending on hardware). under extended options, select keyboard, change back to US configuration, save settings, reboot, all is well.
