    You have a Canadian multilingual keyboard... click on the little keyboard located on your taskbar and you'll have a choice of different languages to choose from. Just choose "US" and you should be getting the standard keyboard layout.

    If you're not going to be using the French keys, you can disable it entirely by going into the Control Panel, Regional and Language Options, Keyboard and Languages Tab, and click on the Change Keyboards button... select the language you want and click Remove and leave just the US keyboard layout... that should fix the problem of having your keys stuck in French mode...
