I have a Spanish Keyboard on my PC. I run XP Pro. I do not have the language option to change my Keyboard language. My XP pro is English and I want it to stay that way but as i am in Spain I want the Spanish keyboard. Anybody know what to do?

Hi,
did you notice in my first post I suggested, control panel> regional and languages, it's a seperate button to keyboard.0 -
In control panel it is the little globe. I also used to live in Spain. you do need the upside down exclamation mark and question mark. Quite a difficult language I think0

Hi, again,
I think I see what you mean, I tried to change mine to Spanish, and it doesn't change the way I thought it would,
but..... are these the kinda things you want...... ¿ Ç Ñ.... well try this,
control panel> regional/languages> change to Spanish> apply.
you will notice that currency and date change to euro sign and domingo,
now when you come out of control panel, you should see a wee box on right hand side of task bar with EN in it, click on it and it should give you the option to toggle between English and Spanish, hope this works.
Now, hope I havn't messed up my keyboard. :rotfl:0 -
