You need to change the Keyboard language to English (United Kingdom) via the Date, Time, Regional and Language link in the Control Panel.
Assuming you have Windows XP:

Click Start , then Control Panel, and Regional and Language Options. Click the "Languages" tab, then the "Regional Options' tab .

Make sure the settings show 'English - UK' and the currency is �

Thankjs for your reply. But the dollar sign has now beome a hash # instead of the pound sign!
I had a similar problem with a Compaq purchased in USA
Switching language does change location of � sign and I can't remember exactly to where but on the right hand side of keyboard just hold down shift and try a few keys and you'll find it. Hope this helps
