Hi David

Looks like you need to load in the appropriate DOS drivers when your PC
boots.

Try adding the following lines to your Autoexec.bat file after first backing
up that file.

mode con codepage select=850
keyb uk,,C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND\keyboard.sys

Ensure that keyboard.sys in the specified directory?
