Keyboard problem

Post by Bernie »

Since doing a clean install, my keyboard is not functioning as before. Basically to get @ I have to press ", and the pound,hash,& the symbol above hash, keys give other symbols when pressed. How do I get it back to what it was before the restore?

You have an American key board. See if you can change it to English, there should be a button on the start bar.

The one at the bottom of the computer.

Right hand side looks like a mouth organ.

If you can't find it click.

Start.
Control Panel.
Date,time, language options.
Regional and language options.

There should be a box tells you what language you are using, change to English uk.
