Keyboard mapping problem

#1 Post by Mack » Thu Aug 25, 2005 12:35 pm

Hi, I connected an external usb keyboard to my Thinkpad X24. When I later removed it the keymapping on the inbuilt keyboard is wrong. It seems to have mapped the external keys on the inbuilt one, or something simlilar... and it seems I cannot change it back. Is there a solution except reinstalling Windows...? And why does this happen?

Thanks for any help.

Hi,

AutoKey allows you to remap keys. It also loet you do key combinations to perform task you want. You can also write scripts there.

P.S. Try the control panel too, under regional and languages.. -> languages -> details

Thanks for your reply. I did a reinstall though, problem solved... *sigh* But I guess it will happen again as soon as I connect the external keyboard.
