Human Clay Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 So I reinstalled the windows 7 RTM on my DV2000 laptop today and I was trying to sign into facebook and I noticed that my 'at' button didn't work, i pressed shift and 2 and all it did was give me " that. All the other buttons work like normal except that one. Any help? thanks in advance.

Human Clay Posted September 26, 2009 Author Share Posted September 26, 2009 Not set to UK is it? UK has the " at shft-2 and @ at shft-' (by Enter). I guess I do, Is there any way of changing it without reinstalling? EDIT: Scratch that I found it.

halcyoncmdr Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Sure can. Control Panel > Region and Language Or type Region and Language into the Start Menu on Vista/Win 7 (I'm running 7 it might be worded slightly differently) You should get a windows like this: Change accordingly Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/827390-at-symbol-wont-work-on-my-laptop/#findComment-591626164 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kralik Posted September 26, 2009 Share Posted September 26, 2009 Start > Search for "Regional and Language Options" and change the keyboard layout etc to what you need. That's how you change the layout to what you need and you can avoid this altogether by selecting a UK extended keyboard after Windows completes installation and asks you what keyboard you have..

Make sure you remove Canada Multilingual and remove French and install US English or Canada English and it should resolve the issue.
