You can copy the lines between =begin= and =end=, paste in Notepad, and:

File -- Save As... "c:\UKwelcom.reg"

(with double quotes!) in Unicode format. Then double click the saved
c:\UKwelcom.reg, and confirm you want to add information in the
Registry.

After restart the first (main) layout on Welcome Screen will be UK, the
second one -- US. The other keyboard settings will remain untouched.

;==begin==UKwelcom.reg is below this line==
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Keyboard Layout\Preload]
"1"="00000809"
"2"="00000409"

;==end==UKwelcom.reg is above this line==

Thanks for that I will give it a go.

Oops... I see I was inattentive: you need US as the first layout. Then:
;=======
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Keyboard Layout\Preload]
"1"="00000409"
"2"="00000809"

;=======

(or the other language identifier for the secondary layout; so for
Russian (RU) it is 00000419; 00000409 for US, 00000809 for UK). The name
of reg-file makes absolutely no difference.

I'm actually after U.K at logon and U.K once I'm in the system I'll have a
play with the various numbers you've provided and see how I get on, thanks
again.
