    PC Keeps Typing Numbers Mainly 8 and 2


    My PC often glitches out and starts typing random numbers - mostly 8 and 2. I don't know if this is a Windows problem but I know that it's not my keyboard or mouse because I have unplugged them and my PC continues to type these numbers. Also, when this 'glitch' occurs, the 'ctrl+F' shortcut rapidly happens. This 'glitch' is really annoying when I'm watching Youtube and the number keys rapidly skip me around through the video, and while I'm playing games because my number keys are used. I have looked this up on the web and I downloaded a suggested app called 'Restoro' and it scans my computer for free, but I'd have to pay for a repair and I don't even know if that would fix my problem. It would be great if there was a solution to this!

    :)

    page numbering

    I tried your suggestion SoFine but split it into three sections
    section 1 - pages not to be numbered
    section 2 - main part with mostly words
    section 3 - contains mainly jpg, pdf and some words
    was able to number OK sections 2 and 3, section 2 numbered from 1 - 110, section 3 numbered from 111 - 234
    combined sections 2 and 3, the numbering stayed as wanted.
    inserted section 1 at front of document and the numbering stated as 1 at the first page of the document not at page 8.
    I have found a company to print it for me, BookPrintingUK.com, I could send them the two files and hope that they can print it OK.
    But two files is a bit messy
