The keyboard is set up wrongly or the laptop isn't one set up for your country.
If you get " when typing @ try typing SHIFT and 2 for the @ symbol.
You can change keyboard settings in Control Panel.

You need a replacement keyboard. You can get one from ebay for about $25. Just search for "toshiba satellite pro L300 keyboard" without the quote.

FN KEY and F10 on my Satellite

It appears that the keyboard layout of your laptop is set to as of UK. You can switch between the US and UK layouts quickly by pressing Alt and Shift keys together. Press the Alt and Shift keys again to switch back to previous layout.

Please rate this solution in case you find it helpful, if not let me know and I shall let you know how to change the layout permanently.

This means that NUM LOCK is set to on. All you have to do is to press the Fn key and then locate the NumLock key and press it. The num lock is usually also highlighted with the same color as the Fn key.

Please comment back if you still have issues. I will be glad to assist you further.
