Hello,
I recently got my hands on an IBM Thinkpad R40.
I am having great difficulty trying to get Windows XP Professional to
MAP / SUPPORT the keyboard correctly.
No matter what REGION i set (ie UK, US etc) none of the keys on the
keyboard actually do what they say they do when you press them. A lot
of keys have 2 or 3 functions to them.
For example, if you press the "=" key, you get a "?" instead.
Are there specifc drivers for these IBM models to overcome this?
