Do you have a British keyboard or a USA one? It could be that your computer thinks you have a USA keyboard when you are using a UK one or vice versa. UK keyboard @ is shift ' and on a USA keyboard it is shift 2. Try these two key combinations to figure out what your computer thinks you have!
Hope thats helpful!

Clean your keyboard. my number 5 packed up and when I had a close look there was a lump of congealed ketchup between the keys!

personally i would check the keyboard layout in control panel
different languages such as usa have different layouts
to change just select the change language settingto the country of your choice and it will work after a reboot
