Pound Sign

Hi,

Any ideas why my pound sign gives me a #? ACER Laptop 5210 Extensa

I have ensured that the regional/language settings are UK but still have this issue.

Any help much appreciated.

Cheers

You need to set it to use a UK keyboard.

If you switch on the Language Bar (bottom right) and right click on the language displayed you should get all the necessary options. Based on Win XP
.

Go to Contol Panel, select Regional and Languages & Change it to English (United Kingdom). This should sort the problem out!
