Keyboard keys not right....
So I had to reload windows on this machine and now some of the keys are wrong. I presume it set to USA or something like that, because the @ and
" and the wrong way around, and if I hit the pound sign I get this: #
So how do I reset it?

Some people are worried about the difference between right and wrong. I'm worried about the difference between wrong and fun.

You only get the language bar (EN on the task bar) if you have more than one defined (for quick switching)
I think the only way to avoid having both US and UK is to set all these options to UK when you install XP - at least I havn't found a way of
deleting US on my work PC
