I can't get my firewall to work

So I bought the new licence for year couple of days ago, then I noticed that my firewall wasn’t on so I clicked to put it on. Well it said “Unable to start Firewall!” Does anybody know why it does not start?

And another was that when I bought the licence and updated Avast, my Keyboard stopped working but I have already resolved it…

Thanks in advance.

Repair avast!:

  1. Control Panel → Add/Remove programs → avast!
  2. Click on ‘Repair’.
  3. Follow instructions.
  4. Reboot.

Well I tried this but it is still saying “Unable to start Firewall!” and on the top of that it made my keyboard stop working…again, any other suggestions?
Thanks though for your reply Asyn.
