I'm not in Linux at the moment so I can't check this very easily, but
it just seems that it's loaded up the incorrect keyboard map for your
PC.  Perhaps it's loaded the US keyboard instead of the UK one?  You
shouldn't need to reinstall everything, just try and set up your
keyboard.  You might be able to do that using xf86setup or setup...I
don't know what distro you're using so I can't be sepecific. If you're
using KDE you can do it from the Control Center.
