Re: Computer keyboard

You need to go into your control panel and check your regional/ language settings to make sure all options on each tab are set to English UK
More info here:
http://www.cableforum.co.uk/board/sh...7#post34161757
and here:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=306560 (obviously you would select English United Kingdom for the language option for each setting)
Instructions are for XP but if you aren't using it then let us know and we will get instructions tailored to the operating system.

I was double-double checking my information before posting and didn't see your post until I'd posted mine (that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it, guv).
