Keyboard configuration

#1 Post by andrewb » Fri Apr 06, 2007 10:35 am

Might anyone be able to give me some direction please.

I have recently undertaken a fresh install of WXP SP2 on my T43p (2669 Q1G). My keyboard is recognised, but certain peripheral keys are misconfigured.

I just wish to have a standard UK configuration, nothing clever. I have tried everyhting I can find in the way of configuration tools, including the plug in on the Lenovo site, but no joy. The key test on PC Doctor suggest that the alt key may not be working, but that is all.

For example, shift + quotes gives me an ampersand. Shift + ampersand gives me quotes. Nothing gives me a pounds sterling sign (normally shift+3) and nothing gives me a Euro sign (normally ctr+alt+4).

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

To me it looks like you've obviously got the setting for the country wrong.
You've got US as opposed to UK.

All you need to do is change these settings.

Heres a good link showing bot us and uk, showing exactly your problem:
