My brother and a friend built his computer and couldn’t figure this out. He called me a couple days later to vent some frustration and I said exactly the same thing.
“I know this is a stupid question, but is your Dport plugged into the mobo or the dedicated graphics card?”
“…”

I learned Dvorak. It was a painful four months going from chicken pecking a few words per minute to touch-typing. I would echo this advice. DO NOT pop the keys off and replace them. There are too many things baked into the BIOS or when you reinstall the OS, and you need to find the right key on a QWERTY layout.
I know it’s painful, but learn to type without looking at the keyboard. Print off a paper guide and place it below the monitor, and reference THAT when key hunting. Being able to touch-type is a serious superpower you will thank yourself for learning in the future.
That is an awesome story. Thanks for sharing.
