After a reinstall of Windows XP, my @ and " keys have been transposed (they
worked fine before). The keyboard is listed as a standard 101/102 key
keyboard, and I can't see any options to change it. Help would be
appreciated!

Thanks

Is the key for "@" the same for "2" ?

On older keyboards, the " was above the 2, but on newer keyboards the @ is
above the 2.

A cheap new keyboard can be purchased at OfficeMax right now for under $7.
(I saw them priced at $3.95 the other day for either a Belkin or a Fellowes.
I can't remember which it was.)

Hi.
Double check your Regional settings in Control Panel. Make sure your
location is correct. This might also be a problem.
