American to British keyboard settings

[James not Bond]

OK, I've fooked up.

I reformatted my computer, forgot to to change the keyboard settings in the process and am now stuck with American keyboard.

How do I change settings to British keyboard please?

Control Panel -> Regional and Language Options - change the Standards and Formats setting to English (UK), then restart windows.

Lol.......leave you pc alone dude.

It asks you in BIG letters which keyboard layout you want upon install; you cannot miss it.

I know Sam, but as I said I fooked up. I did miss it, BIG LETTERS AND ALL.

Remember that you have to change both the Language and keyboard layout. !thumbsup!

My ex purchased her Powerbook mac while in LA. British English with American layout. No real issues apart from it took me a while to find the '?' sign.
