    i have installed my new keyboard (going from qwerty to azerty). everything went wel but the only problem i have now is that when i type the number in the top row i get the symbols and not the numbers; i have to hold shift to get numbers. i know this is normal but with my previous keyboard it typed numbers without holding shift. and if i kept shift down it gave me symbols. is there a way to revrt this again

    Probably, something wrong with the connection, just try to disassemble the wire and install the keyboard again.
    Cheers

    i solved the flex by puting adhesive tape beneath it .

    no my keyboard works great . the problem is :
    old keyboard :without shift i had numbers and with shift i have symbols
    new keyboard : without shift symbols with shift numbers

    but the other methode is much more easy .

    You sure this isn't just the default configuration for 'azerty' keyboards? Also, how did you relearn your typing skills?! :eek:

    Have you used the Intel Keyboard Change Utility found on their download page for S96J drivers?
