After a reinstall of Windows XP, my @ and " keys have been transposed (they
worked fine before). The keyboard is listed as a standard 101/102 key
keyboard, and I can't see any options to change it. Help would be
appreciated!

Thanks

Mr Shed

Hi

Make sure you have the correct (and same Country) settings on all three tabs
in:

Control Panel>Regional and Language Options

You either have a US physical keyboard with a UK keyboard layout
or a UK physical keyboard with a US keyboard layout.

Change the keyboard layout to the correct one in Start | Settings
| Control Panel | Regional and Language Options.

Somehow your keys were re-mapped in the Registry. Download "Keytweak"
[http://webpages.charter.net/krumsick/] to fix your particular problem
plus remap any other keyboard keys you wish too. Program is free and
simple to use.
