A couple of Bugs

[Mark]

Hi ALL

A couple of problems I am having

1. My keyboard is an oldish (2 years) Natural keyboard Pro
with a couple of USB ports and also the internet and media
buttons along the top.
I have downloaded the old (discontinued) driver for this
but still my @ symbol is on the number 2 key and not where
it should be with the ' symbol. I am in Vienna Austria
although all my region settings are at UK across the
board. Any ideas here??

My second problem perhaps is related to the first. If I am
using windows CLassic menu style and I select control
panel I get a strange message telling me windows cannot
find null and I may have typed it incorrectly!! If I ok
this message explorer loads! If I switch back to XP style
menu I do not have this problem??

Any ideas to these two problems.

As an aside they appear to have started when I hot swapped
my mouse (an inteli mouse explorer) and mini disk player
hub from the keyboard USB ports to my new 4 port pci hama
USB card.

Only on that instance when I rebooted windows said that a
registry file was not loads but was recovered from a log
file! This message kept appearing untill I disconnected
the mini disk hub and then dissapeared.


IDeas people??

Nothing to do with the keyboard driver (probably). Just how you've set
your keyboard. To change to the keybaord you have. Go to Control Panel,
Retion and Language SEttings, Languates, Details button.

I don't know about this one.

Go to Control Panel - Regional And Language Options. Take the Language
page and click Details.
There if you do not see United Kingdom under Keyboard for English in the
lower pane, click on Add and search for it in the lower drop down, so
you have English (United Kingdom) and United Kingdom in those two panes.
Click OK. Then in the parent page, select this combination in the
Default Input language in the top drop down, Apply, OK and Apply any
time it is available on the way as you OK out. Then close and restart
to bring it into use.
