there are many types of keyboard.. qwerty 101 keyboard are basic...by default, keyboard drivers are preinstalled with qwerty 101 keyboard type. so if u are using.. for eg. 104-key Windows keyboard, u may face some mis alignment or buttons which cannot work at all.
are u using 101 keyboard?(count the number of keys u have on the keyboard). exclude quick lanuch -

my keyboard currently also have the same problem, ie missing or mis-align keys.
i'm not sure if the problem is due to switching of the language settings? the problem only surfaced a few days ago.
anybody can help? thanx -
Never heard of language settings that will misalign the keyboard keys, unless it's using some other types of keyboard.
Have you tried manyu's method? -

after looking at the pic of UK keyboard, no wonder i kept getting a pound sign when pressing shift+3 previously.
thanx. learnt quite alot todae.
btw, does this mean that if i configue it to say chinese (taiwan) keyboard, i can use the keyboard as if it is a taiwan one? -
Nope. Taiwan keyboard is actually based on Japan. I remember a forumer here asking, had to change some settings to get it to work like a Taiwan one.Originally posted by the_unknown:icic
