    Check the keyboard layout.
    If it is a US Keyboard set it to US International
    Keyboard mapping is NOT what language you want it is a hardware setting.

    yes, I am using US International, that's the only keyboard layout I use for English, when I change to chinese input, the " works fine, but in the English layout, I have to press " and SPACE to get " to come out.
