>>Hi Patrik,
>>
>>Thanks for posting!
>>
>>My name is Jeff and I understand your issue to be:
>>How to use the Swedish Characters in W2k logon prompt?
>>
>>If I have misunderstood your issue please let me know.
>>
>>Based on my test, this can be done.
>>
>>The keyboard layout is a per user setting. At the
>Winlogon window, it
>>loads the default user's profile that is not configured
>in any of your
>>currently loaded profile. By defaul, it only load
>English layout on an
>>English version of Windows 2000. We may change it by
>modify the registry
>>directly.
>>
>>We may need to add a value by the steps below:
>>
>>WARNING: Using Registry Editor incorrectly can cause
>serious problems that
>>may require you to reinstall Windows. Microsoft cannot
>guarantee that
>>problems resulting from the incorrect use of Registry
>Editor can be solved.
>> Use Registry Editor at your own risk.
>>
>>Having said that, I would still like to provide
>assistance. Follow the
>>steps below carefully:
>>
>>1. Type regedit from Start > Run and press OK.
>>2. Locate the following node from the left pane:
>>
>>HKEY_USERS\.DEFAULT\Keyboard Layout\Preload
>>
>>By default, in English version of Windows 2000, it will
>have a value named
>>"1" in the right pane. It has a data string "00000409"
>that refers to an
>>English keyboard layout.
>>
>>If you want to add a Swedish keyboard layout, you may
>put a new REG_SZ
>>value "2" with the data "0000041d".
>>
>>At logon window, you may use the Left Alt+shift to
>switch to Swedish
>>keyboard layout.
>>
>>If you want the system logon by default uses Swedish
>keyboard, you may
>>change the "1" data from "00000409" to "0000041d"
>directly.
>>
>>Hope this helps.
>>
>>Please feel free to let me know if you have any further
>concerns or
>>questions regarding the issue.
