So, I had to reinstall windows due to catastrophic hard drive failure (Booooo) and I've pretty much got everything set up now.

But I noticed that my @ and ' keys were swapped. Ok, I obviously got mixed up between UK and US.

But now that's fixed, my ' key needs a double press before anything appears, and then it appears as ''
(Or even "" if you need to do quotes)

I have a vague memory of this issue annoying the hell out of me the last time I installed Windows 5 years ago, but can't find out how to fix it for the life of me.

Help plz !!
 
Ahhhhh, ok. Fixed it.

Set the 'system' to US instead of UK, and then didn't use the international keyboard setting.

Phew.....
