Re: Stuck in US Regional Settings!!!!

 

I managed to fix this when I had a similar problem. I couldn't switch to

UK keyboard even with admin access and I suspected some missing file or

registry problem so I:-

 

- copied all the *.nls and kbd*.dll files from the SYSTEM32 folder from

a WORKING WindowsXP computer

 

- exported registry entries from the working computer registry which I

found by searching for "kbduk" (only the 2 keys found in HKEY LOCAL

MACHINE were necessary), saving them as two .reg files and then

importing them on the damaged machine (double-clicking them should do

it)

 

This allowed me to choose UK keyboard in Regional Settings and it all

now works.
