Hello All!

	We're having a problem with the keyboard ', and " keys not functioning. 
The machines inquestion are HP Vectra XU 5/90 machines with Windows NT
Workstation installed on each.  It's wierd that this problem only occurs on
those machines.  We have several HP Vectra VL 5/133 machines with the exact
same setup experiencing no problems.  Please help.....

Just out of curiosity, have you tried relocating a "working" keyboard to
one of the machines where the keys don't function, and vice-versa?

Next, try going to Control Panel / Keyboard / Input locales and make
sure these settings are right.  I'm not positive if this will have an
effect, but it's probably worth a try.

I suggest that you check that the international settings match the
keyboard.

Had the same problem on a win3.1 Compaq machine... some unknown
program the user had installed had put an entry in the system.ini for
"keyboard.drv=" other than the original keyboard.drv.   I just blindly
put the original setting back in place and all the keys worked.  Hope
this might help even though we're talking different operating systems.
