changing keyboard settings

[Osborne]

hi

My mum has setup her computer but it isn't using the correct keyboard settings i.e. £ comes up as # instead

I'm sure it's something extremely simple to change but cannot remember how it's done so can someone tell me the solution to the problem?

Cheers!

Start > Control Panel > Regional and Language Options > Languages Tab > Details > Drop Down Menu :: Change to 'English (United Kingdon) - United Kingom.

If you change it and it AutoReverts when you close it, Delete the English(USA) item from Installed Services in the same window.

What if he got another type of keyboard? Like me I got a belgian keyboard

You need to change the default one too if you want to have the right one all the time.

Like has been suggested the easiest way to keep the right keyboard settings is to remove the others. If you don't want that and the keyboard settings change again use alt+shift, this will make you go through the list of all your chosen keyboard settings (I use that to have a UK,dutch,chinese,...) keyboard settings at work... since I need to test loads of different languages (international program)
