keyboard characters

[Guest]

my keyboard characters don't correspont, for example if I want to use
inverted commas - when I type the upper case key for the commas ( " ) I get
the @ symbol and when I type the key for the @ symbol I get the inverted
comma symbol ( " ), and when I type the key for the hash symbol (#) I get a
back-slash ( \ ) .I am working with an Toshiba laptop "satelite"

Thank you for any help........

If you are in the UK sounds like you have your laptop configured to use the
USA keyboard layout.

Go CONTROL PANEL --> REGIONAL & LANGUAGE SETTINGS --> Select the LANGUAGES
TAB and then press DETAILS. Set the UK keyboard as default and remove the
US Keyboard.

P.s - totally the wrong newsgroup!
