Hi
Has anyone come across this weird problem.
Not sure if it is possible to assign a key to work like a function key.
When ever I press the letter P it types a letter P as well as Mute the sound (the little display comes up and makes the sound when you mute the sound)
however pressing F10 does not come up with the letter P

If I go into Keyboard configuration and turn the function keys back to Function keys rather, than the quick access keys, then the keyboard works normally.
I would have to use the fn key to access the quick access keys but the letter P does not mute the sound.

This only happens with the letter P, all other keys don't have this problem.
Did I accidentally activated something which could cause this?

This is happening on my macbook Pro running snow leopard and is recently updated with the latest patches
I already replaced the keyboard but it is still happening so may be it is a application or OS thing

Thank you
Song
