Sorry, I typed a bit quickly: Live allows you to use the computer keyboard as a MIDI keyboard. On a US/english keyboard, a=C, s=D etc... You can turn it off clicking the little icon that looks like a keyboard, top right of Live, close to the KEY button. Sounds like it is the problem... Sorry again if not.

Best,
amo

thank you very much for trying to explain, but the thing i am trying to do is ffor example to make the on/off button of an effect assigned to a key.
Lets say i want to press e and make the erosion turn on. Press it again and its off. Am i clear now?
The problem is that some of the keys are working and some of them are not...
thank you again

I understood your problem very well, and gave that very answer since it's the only reason I've seen keys not working. In fact I gave that answer to many people who were describing the very same problem as yours, but if you already disabled that icon I'm talking about, that must be something else....
