I messed up today trying to bring my laptop out of standby and ended up turning the power off. I had stuff open at the time. When I booted up again, the keyboard was all reconfigured and i'm not sure how to get it back to standard Canadian format again. Any help appreciated.

Thanks,
Malcolm

As far as I remember, that has something to do with the file internat.exe in the c:\winnt\system32 folder... probably makes an icon come up in the taskbar which you click on to change the settings...

A tech friend stopped by and had a look - he said there was some sort of IRQ conflict. It's fixed a any rate and that's what matters.
Thanks for the suggestion on the internatexe fix though!!
