laptop keyboard needs mending

you need to change your language settings.

add a uk keyboard, set it as default then remove the us ones and your key presses will then be correct.

OK, I have googled a UK version, the only one I can find is in Hong Kong, do you think that it is OK to buy from there? I keyboard is fairly straight forward isnt it? I always prefer to buy from the UK if possible as its quicker and I assume I get more consumer protection? This stuff is all made in China anyway............ but I did see a site which advised people not to buy direct form China because you can never be sure of the quality. The site I was looking at was called
http://www.laptop-part.co.uk/hp-compaq-presario-cq60-series-laptop-keyboard.html sites called laptop-part.co.uk or something. What do you think?

I have learnt a lot chatting to youPam

Hong kong is usually fine via ebay for small low value electronic stiff. typically stiff like this will be £20 on ebay or £60+ direct from the manufacturer in the UK.

yes there is increased risk RE consumer protection and don;t even think about trying to return anything. but over time even if you have to scrap the odd £20 you may have wasted you save money on low value PC components overall
