acute accent

siren

I seem to have lost the "acute accent" on my notebook. This is the second time this happens (on two different Acer notebooks) and I have no idea on how to get it back. When I try to write an accent over an "e" it looks like this "´´e". Anyone who knows how to fix this?

Hello,

 

The repeat rate of the keyboard is probably too fast.

Control panel ---> Keyboard properties ---> Speed tab ---> Decrease the repeat rate

You can use the 'ALT' sequence if you have a numeric keypad (ALT+0233).
Alternatively you can use the 'Character Map' application (click 'Start' button and search for 'Character Map').
