this thing is old right? made 2006 so is 13 years old today.and is xp or vista , bad news.https://pcdied.com/XP-sux-sg.htmlvista released January 30, 2007 so is not vista. I guess.?so why not take any usb keyboard made and try that.if that works then we know the relic internal is dead. or just software bunged up.we can boot to Linux demo disk and see of the keys workall techs do that, takes 5 min work.and omg the keys work in Linux. so windows is BORKED!("corrupted".no OS stated, at all if XP this is normal for XP it is a virus magnet.do not run XP ever again if doing so now, OK?what also can change is language settings set wrong.and last."&"gives what? that is shifted character.shift 7so if 7 works and all shift keys fail then shift is bad.so use the right shift, does that work.?try all keys and see what works and not. if Linux fails ,then the keyboard is toast.. (ask how to boot free Linux demo mode "try me" at one of the best ways to test ANY PC after Windozgoes mad?is to boot from Linux demo desk (harmless it is)we make a USB stick or burn a DVD-r disk and boot it. then run Linux see how it runs for what ever the ill's may be. bad keyboard or HDD test top my list.http://www.pcdied.com/linux.htmlboot it and click "TRY ME"one other way (weaker by far) is to use BIOS and test your keyboard, but sadly a full test is not possible there.
I have a Dell Inspiron
The problem is either the Hard drive has failed and needs replacement or the hard drive is operational but it lost the OS. (Operating System). If the OS is gone, you need to re-install it again..

Go to your Device Drivers and open the listing of devices. Select each line by line and hit UPDATE Drivers. If the drivers are current, it will just say so, if the drivers need to updated, the operating system will update to the new or current drivers for that device. Once that has been done, you should be connecting OK.

Can I turbo boost a Dell Inspiron 1525?
Some computers will work with overclocking. It is done in the BIOS HOWEVER....it causes quite a bit of heat in your processor and can destroy your processor.
Go into your BIOS and look for overclocking or clock velocity or speed. Keep in mind...if this can be done...you are going to exponentially shorten your laptop life and if you extreme overclock it.... probably lock up or brick your machine.
