Language bar help please...

HI, I have just had the hard drive changed on my PC and since then have not been able to use the symbols, eg @ and £ properly. I have found that I needed to reset the language bar to English(UK) and they work properly.

The only prob is that I have to reset this everytime I log on. Does anyone know how to 'lock' it as English UK.

Thanks in advance! :T
