Just bought a new dell laptop, everything seems to work okay, though I can't seem to get the @ sign to work! When I press shift & the @ button all I get is "

This is driving me nuts, can anybody assist.

You will probably need to change the keyboard language.
If you are running WINDOWS XP, try the following:

Click START, CONTROL PANEL, REGIONAL AND LANGUAGE OPTIONS, then make sure ENGLISH(UK) is selected.

If this does not work, tell me and I will give you something else to try.

try this aswell:

1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
2. Under Pick a category, click Date, Time, Language, and Regional Options.
3. Under or pick a Control Panel icon, click Regional and Language Options.

The Regional and Language Options dialog box appears.
4. On the Languages tab, click Details.

The Text Services and Input Languages dialog box appears.
5. Under Installed services, click Add.

The Add Input language dialog box appears.
6. In the Input language list, click the language that you want.
THEN CLICK OK
