I have a Japanese version of XP and a Japanese keyboard that I have been using for about 6 months.
Now suddenly XP says I have an English keyboard and my keyboard mapping has changed as a result. None of the Japanese keys on my keyboard work anymore.
I have tried deleting the keyboard driver and reinstalling, no luck.
Any suggestions so I don't have to reinstall windows completely?
I don't know if this is related, but will add this info here as well just in case. Yesterday I purchased an XP English version from an auction site, and wanted to test if the CD was OK. Popped it in, and told the CD to check my system config for compatability.
It came back with the response that I could not install the English version since I have a Japanese version already installed. I already knew this but I just wanted to make sure the CD was working....
