Hi guys,

just a small problem, since loading XP the keyboard key responses appear to
have moved about, hit @ and I get " and vice versa - I get # when I want the
pound sign (it's vanished) - not all shifted keystrokes are different
though. What's happened & is there a fix?

Thanks,

Ray

Hi Ray

Try this

Go to Control Panel>Regional and Language Settings. Make sure that all 3
tabs and submenus are set to the Language that you want - English (UK)?

Go into Device Manager and see what type of keyboard got installed.
