Goto `Start`, `Control Panel` then `Regional and Language` and check you are
on the correct regional settings. You will proberly find it is set to a
different region.

You have most likely got your Keyboard settings to American. Change them to
english UK.
p.s. In your curren setup if you press " you will get the @ sign

To cure this you need go into the keyboard settings in
the control panel. Change your settings to ENglsih
(british) and the keys will be reversed

Guys,

You are brilliant! I had the same problem, but I had my keyboard on Australian settings, and had to revert it to American settings....
Considering my pc is a MEDION, it could be understandable.
But thanx heaps guys!
