American keyboard settings being loaded when logging on

[mattreef]

Recently some of the computers here at school have been loading up with an American keyboard configuration when the user logs on and it is dependent on who is logging on. I think that this is due to a change in the logon script, but I need advice on how to check/change this. It's a windows 2003 exchange server network and as you can guess I'm something of a novice!! Thanks.

Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")
WshShell.RegWrite "HKCU\Keyboard Layout\Preload\1","00000809"

 

 

Stick that on the end of your logon script - It worked for me but i'd test it first as you never know what the registry can do.

Thanks Craigg - have checked the logon script and the keyboard settings parameter that you suggest is already there! I am beginning to think there may be a virus affecting the registry.

We use this adm for setting the keyboard to UK. You will need to test it.
