You may have activated a shortcut key on your keyboard such as the Fn (function) key. It looks like this

Fn and usually situated on the bottom left hand side of your keyboard near the left hand cntrl button.

Some function keys when pressed once remain on. Once they are on they can cause different symbols to appear in place of the normal keyboard ones. If you press your Fn key again and then try typing on the keyboard once again it may help fix your problem.

I hope this helps
Cheers

Restart your computer During the boot process you will see on the screen to press a certain key to enter setup usually the Delete or F2 key this will vary depending on your computer and operating system Press and hold that key during the boot up process to enter BIOS using the arrow keys load failsafe defaults or load optimized defaults press escape then press f10 to save to cmos to restart. Hope this helps.

FILTER KEYS HAS DONE SOMETHING AND I DONT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE BUT

Well, to deactivate the filterkeys; press Shift Key 5 times and when the Stickykeys dialog box pops up, click "settings" and remove the tick mark from the "use filterkey" (If you want to use your keyboard as normal, the uncheck all the ticked marks) click "Apply" > "Ok" and check the changes.
Good luck

I changed the battery in my BMW X3, and now there is power to everything, but it won't start. I think it is a security/code issue. Any ideas?

there is a security reset procedure on most vehicles, usually has to do with turning key on and off in certain sequences for a certain time interval.I have no experience with this typ of car though. Try to google the reset/relearn procedure for this.
