Keyboard " and @ keys switched - Vista




By Reg CMR on Apr 01, 2008

" "
Hi there,

I have a LG and a viesonic keyboard wich I have tried on desk top running Vista business and the keys @ and " are switched and the £ sign comes out instead of the hash key. whicj is not on my keyboard ....

I have tried the regional settings and selected and tried English US and UK... I did the driver updates ....

Restarted my computer after each change

I thought that the Vista service pack 1 would solve this problem but to no avail ,,,

I ahve tried these key boards on PC'cs with XP and they work fine...


Please help ...

What sort of answer is that? You're a Wiz? I'm running Windows XP Pro SP3 and I have the same problem.

So Wiz, is this really just an unsolvable Vista issue? -   inQontrol

pressing alt + shift ... this changes the key pattern of the computer only.... so the keyboard wont give any probs in other systems..

So press alt + shift and enjoy :-)

I've got a Logitech Keyboard and the same problem.. However, according to my Control Panel info, everything is OK! Oh, is it?! And the whole trick delays my work as my job is based on e-mailing.
Please, think of a solution..
