Hello all

My sister hasa new laptop and for some reason the buttons such as '@]}{[ sorta thing arent set to the right buttons. when she wants @ it brings up / or something like that so im just wondering where do you change the type of keyboard.

Vista or XP??

In XP anway, you need to alter the regional settings, which is under control panel. Switch to classic view (top left hand side of the control panel window).

Then make sure the keyboard layout is set to UK not US.

That should sort it.
