My Keyboard configuration is wrong. The @ and " keys are reversed. How do I fix this?

Is the # and £ also reversed?

If so, you might have the language settings for your keyboard wrong. I don't
have an XP machine to hand at the moment, but if you look in control panel
under Language/Regional settings, or you might have a little 'UK' or 'US'
icon on your tool bar, try double clicking on that. Failing that, try
looking up 'Keyboard Settings' in the on-line help.

Sorry this advise is a bit wooly, but it might be enough

Cheers,

You definitely need to goto Start, Settings, Control, Panel, Regional and Language Options. Make Sure you are in Classic view if using XP. Click on the Language Tab, Click Details and make sure that you only have English United STates as your Keyboard language and not English the United Kingdom. If you do see English United Kingdom hightlight it and remove it.
